I thought so. Could be a bug in GO Launcher or a combination of how it works combined with the Samsung firmware.

Should the YouTube player pop up on the forums if I have flash player installed?
I have it installed but it still says that I need to install it.

You probably have an old version installed.
Not sure if there is a way to manually update it though.

I have Flash Player 11 installed. It was never there when I updated to ICS so I just downloaded it myself from the store.

In the forum discussions, youtube videos show up, but in the news section it displays the "get flash player" message. I have no idea why it does that. :S

My friend was just telling me his flashed Xperia that he installed a custom ICS ROM onto is acting twitchy. He has flashed phones a few times in the past so he knows what he's doing but right now it's missing calls and messages. Incidents like this scare me off from trying it myself :E

Mine doesn't show at all. I can play flash games fine. I went on kongregate to try out games. I am assuming that you would have needed flash to play the games there.

My phone likes too keep the screen blank lately and make me hold down the power button for about 10 seconds until it reactivates. Quite annoying [Shifty]

I have the Galaxy S2. I was watching a twitch stream the other day on my phone browser. Still no luck with YouTube videos showing up on the forums though.

Cool hardware specs, oh look out it has a touch screen on it APPLE IS GOING TO SUE THEM FOR THAT!!!1!

I agree with the large screen complaint, I remember years ago we all wanted phones to get smaller. Now it looks like the smart phone is starting to catch up to the tablets.

Im not sure. It's not much of an improvement over the S2.
A 10mp camera would've been nice

Hit 2ghz. Made a more efficient battery. Not skinned touchwiz. Smaller screen but same res. Better screen type (not pentile). More ram. Less plastic.
The list could go on but you care about mp still?

How have I never checked out the new Sony lineup before?
The xperia U, P and Sola all seem to be really close to what I'm after in an android phone.
Dual core, plenty of ram, nice screens and all 4" or smaller!
