I love these guys who brick their device, then go out and buy a jtag box off of ebay and then ask where they're supposed to solder the wires. Jezz, talk about making life difficult. Had a guy ask that in the tab 8.9 forum today. Didn't even identify which 8.9 he had. There's like four different variants.

Introducin

Hope this isn't "off topic", but looking for a place to introduce meeself. Coming from iPhail after the 4s debacle. Was a long time iPhag. Haha. Got the Skyrocket and now a dedicated Android flash freak. Been following since November, and this is my second post. I'm a three finger banjo picker living in D/FW Texas. Don't be fooled I listen to all music. Running the Paranoid Android Rom right now. Have used everyone's at one time or another. One thing that keeps me excited about Android are the Devs. You won't find a more helpful dedicated group. The iOS users always irritated me because they acted like the Devs owed them a jailbreak every 15 min. The lack of respect is beyond ridiculous. Seems like a good group here on XDA and hope to be here for a long time to come.

[Off-topic] prbassplayer:
Its "my truck" its really a 1987 Isuzu trooper 2 door. It was my grandfathers later owned by my godfather. Started to mix oil and water and was going to sell it so I bought it. Did a very basic engine rebuild. Block head was cleaned, new gaskets and swapped the carb for a weeber (was running stock and needed to do a rebuild decided webber carb was cheap enough to upgrade) front suspension is all new new shocks on the rear (I'm hunting for a rear stabilizing bar) added like 1 1/2 inch height on 31x10.5x15 tires (I want to get more 4x4 aggressive tires). I'm hoping that in 12-18 months I'm able to get it sanded down and fix the rust spots (which aren't much considering its age) with new rear bumper and either new front bumper or modifying it to add tubular guards? (called rompe monte in spanish) and maybe new tires but that I don't know since a tire cost from $130-$160 each =/. I'm a sucker for older vehicles and its my grandfather's truck so it has more value to me. Long term I would love to have it running better carb, exhaust with a small T3 or T3/T4 turbo cranking ~ 10psi with a modified cam and maybe modifying the gears. but that's in the not even close to accomplish since its a big investment but ya.

edit: Ill post pictures tomorrow.

[Off-topic] lazer77:
So how could I work out this $649 s4?.. Use my upgrade on one of the current "flagship" phones, then turn right around and sell it for close to off contract price? Seem logical or no?
[Off-topic] droidbabyxda:
Depends on how desperately you want one. Which flagship phone?
[Off-topic] lazer77:
I'm referring to googles announced s4. And by current flagships, I mean the s4, HTC one etc.
[Off-topic] occupational_hazard:
Dont even bother using the phone. Sell it new in the box. More bang for your buck.
[Off-topic] lazer77:
Yep, that's my idea. Is it logical?
[Off-topic] occupational_hazard:
Yes. It is not a question of logic. But a question of patience.
[Off-topic] droidbabyxda:
True. Or

You can always do the math.

$ xxxx (top dollar amount you can get for the carrier phone)

less: $ xxx (cash out for new phone from carrier) + $36 (activation fee) + $240 (total cost of 2 yr plan @$10/mo)

=profit from carrier phone

$6××- profit from carrier phone =total cost of new Vanilla S4.

That makes it more scientific.
[Off-topic] occupational_hazard:
This is what i was pushing for.
[Off-topic] Fortune090:
I wasn't entirely saying that buying that specific phone from Google at that price. I'm just really excited on the development side of things. If they're going to be releasing updates for it alongside their Nexus lines, that means there's going to be AOSP drops for it pretty freaking early and none of this random, waiting for updates and doing best at building a build of AOSP from almost nothing.

So basically get S4 on a contract price, then just wait for this to drop.
[Off-topic] lazer77:
Ya I figured. Its not so much profit I'm looking for just that I can basically even out or close to it. I guess I could make do by getting the s4 through att but I'd feel more satisfied with the vanilla s4.

Edit: Google updates and the option to switch carriers if I want down the road is always a plus too among others.
[Off-topic] plwalsh88:
I've seen two people do it so far (I'm sure many more have). One got $600 for his S4 and the other got $550 for his. So if you get lucky I'm sure you could even out. Otherwise expect to pay an extra $50-100 or so. Could be worse.

[Off-topic] xcrazydx:
The usual no sugar coated response.
[Off-topic] plwalsh88:
I'm liking it a lot. But then again, I had been using a captivate for the last few months so it's a pretty big step up. Either way I think it's great, even completely stock. Samsung is doing a good job starting to incorporate some AOSPy things. I don't know why everyone seems to be hating on it so much. Really the only negative is the bootloader issue. It's weird to see the development section of the number 1 new phone be so empty. Soon enough, though. I just don't see why anyone would even consider the HTC or LG. I guess I'm just so used to Samsung. Although I definitely would've considered the Xperia Z if it was available.
[Off-topic] occupational_hazard:
I think a lot of this is due to people think that a company should not be caving into another companies requirements and adding bloat that they will never use. People expect a phone to work to their own wants and needs right out of the box and expect nothing less. But a lot of the people on here do not realize that phones are not released with dev community in mind. But have to target the larger consumer base of the typical " I use my phone for making calls, mms, pictures, etc"

I am still enticed with the S4 and plan to buy it.
[Off-topic] plwalsh88:
Yea you're completely right. I mean, isn't AT&T et al. the way that Samsung makes it's money on smartphones? At least in the US anyway, where everybody buys phones through the carrier. So their hands are kinda tied.

But people's expectations overall are just getting higher. They feel that by now, in its fourth iteration, the phone should be flawless with all of the kinks from earlier versions worked out. But what they fail to realize is that these aren't just bug fix upgrades. They are entirely new devices with new hardware and new software and *new technologies*. All of which introduce their own brand new kinks and uncertainties. And even with that, the kinks are few and far between. No device is ever gonna be perfect. Because as you alluded to, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
[Off-topic] lazer77:
By LG you mean the Optimus G Pro? Personally I was considering it for the screen size. I would prefer the Note 2, but the price difference played a role in that.
[Off-topic] occupational_hazard:
Are you buying phone outright? Amazon usually has a pretty good deal to upgrade.
[Off-topic] lazer77:
Me? No. I decided to just wait it out. Too many rumors about other upcoming devices (revamped nexus4, s4 ge, etc).

Hey guys... I need some direction ...

I recently bought an Anker car charger and it is a defective product. Long story... hisband plugged it in car charger(qcell ext. batt was 70% full freshly come off the wall charger) phone died. I thought he did something to it pulled battery out and put it in and plugged it again same thing happened phone died instantly. I pulled battery out and put it in it turned on. Left it that night following morning phone is dead. I tried 5 wall chargers nothing. I swapped with my regular battery and it turned on. Tried 5 wall chargers still not charging. Anker already refunded my money as I was too pissed off and don't even want to try their product again.

They wrote to me saying if I can find a service center and do a test on the phone and the charger that they will compensate me for the broken phone. I live in a small small city. I don't know where to go for a service center. Any advice will be appreciated. I need a reputable service center but I can't afford to pay $$$ to just get it diagnosed. :confused:
