[citation][nom]reprotected[/nom]@Ragnar-Kon I agree. Although I own a Galaxy S2 and really don't regret getting it, for the most part, I like the simplicity of iOS (I own an iPod Touch 4g). Unlike Android, iOS has an easier time backing up apps, adding music, and updating it's own OS. My Galaxy S2 cannot update to newer versions without rooting and going through tedious processes that jailbreaking/clean iPhones do not. I'm still stuck on 2.3.3 with no update options in my phone or on Samsung Kies.I can't manage music as easily as I can with iTunes. Samsung Kies is the worst program I have ever used, and programs like Miro have problem connected to my Galaxy S2. It works, but with annoyances. Although this is Apple's fault and not Google's, some of my songs are locked into the Apple AAC format, so competitive media players cannot display it's name and artists. Updating is the biggest issue with international versions of Galaxy S2, as well as app limitations when it comes to games. For Apple, it's either they don't release the app in your country (which is uncommon for games), or incompatibility with your phone (which is once again not an issue due to the fact that I can actually read if a certain app is compatible with my iOS version and iPhone/iPod touch), but with Android, it's usually due to incompatibility. Easy Android updating is non-existent in international versions of the phone, and app backups are dependent online.I'm not bashing on Android/Galaxy S2, in fact, I would still prefer my Galaxy S2 oven an iPhone, but these inconveniences can really pester someone. Surely enough once most of us get adapted the Android, these inconveniences generally become a new learning experience to us, and can teach us much more about managing programs and using new and hopefully open software, while giving us more customization and control over our devices rather than using a closed program and a monopolizing service managing a closed and not-so-flexible mobile OS.[/citation]
really i have yet to successfully back up a single apple product, and i think the process is retardedly complicated.
i want access to the file system so i can move folders and put them back when the os is installed, i dont want itunes sync thing that i have no idea if the damned thing even works.
if i had a mac, the process is probably easier, but i use pc, and cant access the file system and have to deal with something that i have no idea if it backed up or not.
