[Galaxy S 4 General] reggiexp:
thx.

In french we will get the dual quadcore? (It aint a 8,core.) Its a 2x4core

Funny that netherland doesnt get the 2x4core makes.me.laugh. why they dont let both phones not every one wants 4g

Dont see the use of it. Only eat faster your internet plan of 3gb.... so its stupid.

Hope french.will.get 2x4core. Normaly yes. 4g isnt every where even 3g isnt every where here. So f()ck 4g.

Hhaha

But still stupid why only bring the 4g version and nor both. For poeple who like new things...
[Galaxy S 4 General] mg2195:
4g doesn't use any more data then 3g...its just faster. Whether you have edge, 4glte or anything I'm between, downloading the same file will use up the same amount of data...only difference is the LTE one will obviously finish much faster. Really the only downside of 4glte is that it uses more battery power then other network speeds...but even them it really isn't that big of a difference
[Galaxy S 4 General] Saturny:
I'm sorry, but I must politely disagree. I've seen that LTE is a battery HOG.

Both my older brother and his wife have S3's on verizon, and they can't go 6 hrs, let alone a day, without charging their phone 2, 3, or more times. I, however, can get a day on a single charge easy, and I'm on t-mobile's 4g.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
As much I prefer them to standardize and bring one version to all markets, I guess there are many versions customized to cater for every market.

[Galaxy S 4 General] mg2195:
I have LTE on my HTC vivid, and its battery life is on par if not better than my Samsung infuse (my Samsung infuse has a slightly bigger battery, no LTE and only single core compared to my dual core vivid which has LTE)...I get through 12 hours easy...which does typically include about 4 hour screen on time

I won't disagree that it doesn't use more battery than 3g...but its not as big of a battery hog that everyone makes it out to be...idk maybe I just expected worse so I'm happy with the battery life I currently get

Anyways...again based off my experience I find LTE not to be that big of a hog...keyword my experience
[Galaxy S 4 General] cell128:

[Galaxy S 4 General] CreepyDroid:
France will get the S600 variant so that should be the GT-i9505.
[Galaxy S 4 General] AussieHusky:
Optus and Telstra are testing the s600 variant for Australia, and Australia has the same LTE Frequency as Singapore (1800mhz), so it's likely we would be getting that version too.
[Galaxy S 4 General] evildave_666:
Based on past experience the (NTT Docomo only) Japanese version will be a variant of the Exynos version with japan-only digital TV tuner and dual-mode NFC-A/Felica (Felica secure element on-board and NFC-A secure element on the SIM card).
[Galaxy S 4 General] hefonthefjords:
The uk will get both versions since only one network actually runs 4g right now and it is certainly going to be available on all networks.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mnotme:
Sweden (and most likely all of Scandinavia) will get the GT-I9505. This according to TeliaSonera and Tele2 reps that I have talked to.
[Galaxy S 4 General] windowsceportal:
m919

there will also be a Korea-only variant without LTE: SCH-M919
[Galaxy S 4 General] tcntad:
Im sure Sweden will get the i9505 version
[Galaxy S 4 General] Obagleyfreer:
Damn, so we have to choose between the Exynos Octa Core or LTE?

Why can't they just do what they did with the S3 i9305 and make it with Exynos and LTE I wonder.

I really dont know which one to choose now, and it makes it even harder as it seems like there will be a pretty even distribution between Exynos version and Snapdragon version. How do we know which one will get the most development? My guess is the LTE version with Snapdragon will be more popular as Samsung are being a pain with Exynos sources.
[Galaxy S 4 General] XXSamS:
S4 in Romania

Any idea when Galaxy S4 will arrive in Romania and which version? Thank You.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
Simple. Does your country have LTE in any of the carriers? If no, I9500. If yes, I9505.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Brendo:
seems weird that the main device (exynos) is not going to support lte
[Galaxy S 4 General] Closed Source Project:
Neither is it getting good developer support...
[Galaxy S 4 General] hisname:
@livebyte, Singapore is getting the snapdragon version? Digital Life states that it is TBC. seems like you have more information than the newspaper :cool:

Sent from my supercharged :tank:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jeremy:
Awesome that Singapore is getting snapdragon variant. Dev support <3
[Galaxy S 4 General] thekoRngear:
Indeed. The I9305 which came with LTE and 2 GB RAM has Exynos 4412 SOC. Hence I personally think it could be possible to out LTE with Exynos 5410 too. In the end it is all about confirmation from official sources/revelation from the retailers.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
Yes. SingTel, StarHub & M1 all have LTE. So it's definitely the Snapdragon version.

It's also confirmed during the launch and benchmarks that I9505 has Snapdragon.

The Singapore version of S3 is I9305. So the I9505 is definitely the LTE version.

On the upside, we have more development support.

Since the majority of devices is definitely the Qualcomm version as many countries already has LTE,

development for these devices will be significantly higher.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
They did it with the S3 too. Only when the Galaxy S3 launched in Korea, it launched with Exynos 4 Quad together with 2GB RAM.
[Galaxy S 4 General] BoneXDA:
The version confusion probably comes from Samsung not knowing whether the Octa will have manufacturing problems whenever they ready to manufacture. Recent Antutu score updates suggest they upped their game and probably nearing green light but it's still no guarantee that everything will be perfect, so many markets could get the SD600, at least initially. Either way, it is worth waiting for it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jamal2367:

[Galaxy S 4 General] tietherope:
In a selfish way I'm glad to see that. Being in Canada, I want the S600 version to be as widespread as possible to increase development support.

I bought the Exynos Galaxy S III for the development factor and it sucks to have to make that choice again.
[Galaxy S 4 General] currway:
Hold on there Mr sure shot. Samsung did not announce that exynos 5 does not support LTE.

You're just assuming based on S3 LTE support are specifically found on snapdragon soc only.

In fact if you read the official Samsung launch statements and reviews so far, it indicates that exynos does support LTE.
[Galaxy S 4 General] tietherope:
It all comes down to which LTE bands it supports. Different countries use different bands.

It may have LTE for South Korea but nowhere else.
[Galaxy S 4 General] l3Lack H@t:

No need for this thread anymore Sammobile has the whole list http://www.sammobile.com/2013/03/20...variant-of-the-galaxy-s-4-we-have-the-answer/
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
I9505 benchmarks indicate it's a Snapdragon.

Samsung has decided not to use their Exynos 5 Octa in their International S4 LTE.

From their past nomenclatures, anything with IXXX5 indicates its an LTE version except the I9105.
[Galaxy S 4 General] skivnit:
Nice, we're getting the octa (Morocco) wonder when that will be
[Galaxy S 4 General] titooo7:
If that Sammobile list is true, most asian and african countries will receive only the Exynos Octa variant. There is nothing strange here because most of those countries don't have LTE so it doesn't make sense to release the Snapdragon version there.

But most european countries will receive the Snapdragon variant of Galaxy S4. Only a few will receive both variants (Exynos Octa and Snapdragon 600). That's really strange because most of Europe doesn't have support for LTE and the support isn't expected at least till next year.

What are your thoughts regarding the performance of each variant? Do you think there will be significant diferences?

In case you wanted to buy an Exynos Octa SGS4 but that's not gonna be sold in your country, will you still buy the SGS4 or you'll buy a phone from other brands?
[Galaxy S 4 General] PLUG313:
I'm limited to buy from only this one store... so... I'm getting the snapdragon.

I'll still be happy even though I wanted the exynos. at least I'll be able to try 4G.
[Galaxy S 4 General] muhamet:
Livebyte Macedonia I9505 Lte suport?I think her in Macedonia no suport for Lte
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
There wouldn't be significant differences in general use, but in terms of games, it may vary since the GPU in Exynos is substantially faster.

But since you are here, I'm sure you would love a thriving development community so Snapdragon is the way to go!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
Are you sure? Trust SamMobile's content with a pinch of salt.

I stopped trusting them when they've been providing false information about the S4.

I will edit it soon in your favour.

Okay guys trust the list with a pinch of salt.

KOREAN VERSIONS OF THE S4 IS DEFINITELY NOT EITHER I9500 OR I9505.
[Galaxy S 4 General] kms108:
i9508 should be a GSM/TD SCDMA version
[Galaxy S 4 General] 1337RYoN:
Am I the only one who doesn't mind trading LTE for Exynos 5410? The better GPU and the hopefully faster and more battery efficient processor draws me. Anyway, if I'm not wrong, Singapore had the non-LTE version of S3 first and the LTE version came later, right? And as to dev support, there should be plenty of TW roms if I ever get tired of stock.
[Galaxy S 4 General] CreepyDroid:
Yeah korea will probably get an LTE Exynos version just like with the GS3.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Livebyte:
Yes correct.

Because LTE was not launched in Singapore during S3's launch. It was only during the time of iPhone 5's launch, all three carriers here launched LTE. In order to compete with iPhone 5, Samsung released the LTE version to Singapore.
[Galaxy S 4 General] 1337RYoN:
I'll be so happy if we could get both

:D
[Galaxy S 4 General] 1337RYoN:
What LTE bands does Exynos Octa support? AFAIK all 3 singapore telecoms use 1800/2600 MHz frequencies. Since the Octa by default supports 6 bands, it would be incredible if it supports 2600 and 1800. Couldn't find this info on Gsmarena or any other websites.

Here's the Samsung Galaxy S4 versions breakdown by countries​

amsung announced the Galaxy S4 with an Exynos 5 Octa chipset, but what the presenters didn’t say during the announcement is that a lot of countries will be getting the Snapdragon 600 version instead. And it’s not just North America either.

SamMobile has compiled a list that shows which country gets which model. The I9500 is the non-LTE Exynos model while the I9505 is the 4G-enabled Snapdragon model. It's worth pointing out that some lucky countries are getting both.

Actually I am not very sure about Exynos 5 Octa LTE support.

It could just be mass production of these chips would not be quick enough so they decided to have both.

Can someone help me determine which model is best for China Mobile?

I gather the following:

3G 9500

LTE 9508

However, is it true that neither 3G and LTE exist for China Mobile. Don't they currently run only on 2G and plan to bypass 3G? Maybe I read everything completely wrong?
[Galaxy S 4 General] kms108:
9508 is ok, it takes advanges of the td network, or you can consider the 9502, a dual sim version.

I agree on this, when did korea ever sold the i9500 and i9505.

yes, there version is indeed the exynos with lte.

I'm in the Philippines with SHV-E300K. 32GB Exynos 5 + LTE.

In Japan, the model number is SGH-N045, sold as the SC-04E.

is this Exynos 5 OCTA or quad core.

Hi, this is my first post and I am a noob.

I have some problems with the post in " LG Optimus 4X HD > Optimus 4X HD Android Development"

[JB][412][CWM] ClockWorkMod 6.0.2.8 + unsecure images for v20a (FREEDOM for EUR-xxx) from Dexter_nlb.

I have read carefully the instruction to install the clockworkmod and the unsecure image for 20A and I tried to do what he said but no way!:(:(

Can someone explain me how to do these steps?

GUIDE:

1. when you are running unlocked bootloader and is rooted goto step 2.

I have the unlocked bootloader and root in 20A JB:good::good:

2. download attached zip files and extract content to internal sdcard location

I have done this step:good::good:

3. use adb shell or terminal from market and execute the commands below

I execute the commands but the command promp said :confused:"permission denied":confused: (look at the attachment) (I use Android Terminal Emulator)

execute these 3 commands for recovery image install

Code:

su

cat /mnt/sdcard/recovery-6028.img >/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

sync

execute these 3 commands for unsecure boot image install

Code:

su

cat /mnt/sdcard/unsecure-boot-mmcblk0p2.img >/dev/block/mmcblk0p2

sync

This is my request: can someone create a adb script that makes these steps easily than easy?

Or someone tell me how to do that with windows command prompt.

Because I'm a noob and I have no idea how to make it work!

:Dthanks in advance:D

I'm itching for some flashing and I've always known the hd2 is a good phone. It's dirt cheap on eBay, is it worth buying still?
[HD2 General] retsam88:
If very cheap, yes.

Mind the battery though. Buy second one or with bigger capacity.

Otherwise I would go for Nexus 4 or wait for new smartphones(octa cores especially)
[HD2 General] Mister B:
If very cheap be careful as many have the standard issues of digi, heating issues,micro usb issues & if repaired badly lots of other small faults too such as dead volume button, no wifi etc ...

Its still a useful fun phone but problem is not if you should buy one but finding one worth buying.
[HD2 General] Spaqin:
If you have some more money I'd recommend getting a Galaxy Nexus. It's quite faster than HD2 and will work a bit longer. I wouldn't advise getting a really new phone though; there isn't much difference even between HD2 and Nexus 4, unless you really want fancy animations and heavy games working better. And Nintendo 64 emulator working great.

If I were you, I'd buy now an older high-end smartphone and get a new one when it could emulate PSP and Wii perfectly.

Oh. For some flashing? Go with HD2. Flashing is nice and easy and there is plenty of ROMs you could try. Just don't use power button too often and it will be your friend til the end of the motherboard.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Edgar Allan Pro:
After a lot of searching and reading of sticky posts I can't seem to find a specific answer to my question. So here it is:

I rooted my AT&T Note 2 the other day, and long story short I didn't like it and was uncomfortable with the changes I had made. So I flashed it back to the official 4.0.1 ICS, and then updated to 4.1.2 from the AT&T downloader. The phone is working fine, and is back to normal but as to be expected the flash ticker says I have flashed it 3 times. I would like to refrain from rooting my device again, but would also like to reset the flash ticker so that I can keep my warranty.

Is this possible? The best I could come up with was to root the device, use triangle away to reset the flash counter, and then reinstall ICS 4.0.1 and wipe the data on the phone and start over again.

Any advice?

Also, I apologize if this is the wrong section for this question.
