[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F9zSlavik:
Someone had mention this to me so I figure I ask. Selling my S3 in order to get either an S4 or HTC One. I love the ONE but ifix just said its impossible to repair. Feel like I am force to get an S4 because of its generous and gorgeous features over a very nice looking phone like the HTC ONE.

Do you guys believe is worth getting Exynos over the Snapdragon and sacrificing LTE?

I'm on TMOBIL so ideally I would love to have the latest and greatest but at the same time I would like the LTE feature. What are your thoughts on it?

I wish the video recorder had a wide angle like the HTC One and even the S3.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x102x96x:
There will be Exynos OctaCore with LTE

like S III QuadCore with LTE

however Samsung confirm it for some regions like S.Korea

So u can buy it and enjoy ;)

Samsung said 70% of the first 10 million galaxy S4 will be S600 proc because of some problems in Exynos production ... :p
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
Roms were interchangeable between all the American snapdragon S4 with a few tweaks by devs.

Most likely it will be the same case with all the sd600 Roms. So development will be easier.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mix1987:
Wel if we looked at the the locations of SD600 launches we can see that SD600 is going to places where a larger portion of the developers are. In fact almost the whole of europe is getting the SD600. Not to mention the possibility of US also using SD600. So we are looking at a significant difference in user proportions and developer support tend to also follow the trend linearly.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jutley:
In a short answer is yes it will be more popular as 70% is getting quadcore.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
70% of the population is getting the Snapdragon, and many of the developers who worked with Exynos in the past got sick of it and are absolutely not getting another Exynos device, and most of us are ditching Samsung overall.

I only know of one developer (AndreiLux) who is confirmed to be getting an Exynos variant so far.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fu5ion:
Didn't CM say that they would not support Exynos processors? That should say something in itself.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
No... You need to read more carefully. CM never makes general decisions as a whole to support/not support a given device (except when a device simply needs to be dropped - the last time that happened was with ICS and Snapdragon S1 series chips because their GPUs are too weak to pass the Android CTS for ICS and later. Tegra2 devices had a close call due to lacking NEON support but they're still in for now.)

That said, none of the Exynos4 maintainer team are picking up any GS4s (we're so pissed at Samsung we're not even getting the Qcom variants, but this doesn't really matter as far as CM on those devices - see below).

Some of the Qualcomm GS3 maintainer team will be picking up Qualcomm GS4s.

So Qualcomm-based GS4s have had maintainers with direct experience with its predecessor express interest in picking up the device. CM support on the AT&T and T-Mobile variants is highly likely, CM support on international Qualcomm GS4s doesn't have a maintainer that has expressed interest yet, but differences from the AT&T/T-Mo variants should be minimal (if anything - see t0lte, one device repo is supporting international Note 2 LTE, AT&T LTE, and T-Mobile LTE versions.)

Exynos-based GS4s have had no one with prior maintainer experience express interest in the device so far. Will someone attempt it? Almost surely. Will they succeed and get it to a point where it will get M and stable builds? In my PERSONAL opinion, highly unlikely unless Samsung changes their attitude with regards to documentation.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fu5ion:
Thanks for clarifying. What do you expect from the vzw version?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
Who knows. The CDMA guys are always in their own land. I'm not sure if sbrissen did any work with the Qcom-based GS3s.

I think some of the guys who do work on d2vzw and d2spr are semi-interested, however, at least some of them are questioning whether they can justify a device purchase already, and most of them are (like myself) not fans of user donations.

There's also the fact that with each iteration, Samsung is getting much better at locking down Verizon devices. Don't count on this next iteration getting cracked rapidly.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F9zSlavik:
So your suggesting that we or I stick with a SD600? I hear a lot about how displeased people are about previous Exynos. I don't know much about the history but you make it osund like it was a real pain in the ass.

And why would people want to leave samsung phones? You say for not having a Qalc variant. You mean an 8 core Qualc?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Underground_XI:
True.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
It is a real pain to deal with when you don't have proper documentation to work with. Add in the fact that Samsung flat out lied to devs and you have why they are willing to leave the OEM. To be honest I think in the end most devs will end up on the nexus so they don't have to deal with closed source BS from the OEMs. How many cores the device has is not really a problem as it doesn't effect alot. I have had both of the S3 and they run the same. Mix in the fact that the extra 4 cores won't do anything for performance and android is not really able to take advantage of them. Muti level threading on android is still not up to par for anything other then a dual core device.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Thats an interesting point, to where are the majority of the Developers moving to do you know? I've actually just got the HTC One but i'm really tempted to get the S4, as i've come across a few speed bumps that for me are a bit annoying.

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

To answer the question about the S4, i would say that until the octa is widely available (probably later on this year, like they did with the LTE version of the S3) it's safe to say that development for the snapdragon is going to be vastly superior in comparison.

Even if they bring out the Octa to the masses, chances are development will be so far ahead with the snapdragon then it'll be pointless getting it.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GTRagnarok:
Do you lose Samsung specific features like finger hovering if you use AOSP roms like CM?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Yes you lose all Samsung features
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Wont matter as Samsung refuses to release proper documentation on any Exynos chip. So even if every samsung had the same chip development would be slow going.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolguy71261:
that vzw bs has just driven most devs up the wall, vzw doesnt listen and never will
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F9zSlavik:
Curious, which ONE do you have? Dev edition? And what do you mean speed bumps? I would love to have your full input on the HTC ONE as it looks to be an amazing sexy lovely looking phone.

Been debating whether or not to get a ONE or S4. Problem is that I would want a 64gb Dev Edition BUT it's missing support for Tmobile 4g 1700mhz. Some have said a radio could potentially be flashable to enable 1700mhz but no one has confirmed this for me to be a fact. Could you share some light on this?

One thing is for sure though, if I do get a S4 it will definitely be based on SD600. thread has been VERY informative.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
I have the 32GB one, its a decent enough phone. And the things I'll miss are a bit silly, like CRT animation Lol, or the Bluetooth not allowing ps3 controllers, and the possibility of not having a fully soff phone. None are real deal breakers alone but combined they're making me think twice. Not sure about the radio side of it, AFAIK you would need to be soff to flash different radios, unless you were talking about clock speed in which case its kernel related and shouldn't be a problem even with s-on.

The one has really grown on me but I had a look at the s4 the other day and I really liked it, exactly the same size as the s3 but looks nicer with way more features. Even the lockscreen looked different, with a kind of sun glaze on it. Such a close one to call tbh, development will be the deciding factor for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F9zSlavik:
This makes me want to get an S4 lol

And yes I was referring to 4g 1700mhz not overclocking it lol

I didn't like that you consider the phone as "decent" ;/
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Terrorantula:
Sadly the contract version here is only 16GB internal :\

Are you able to install to Micro SD on Android these days?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
That depends on the OEM. I think the s4 has a slot but not sure as I have no plans on getting the s3s lol.

But it really depends. I know the new HTC doesn't nor does any nexus as Google has stated they don't want SD cards

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Robson:
Hello,

I have 3 items on my plate and I'd appreciate any feedback regarding them:

1) i'm using a 512 mb card; i was having some difficulty because the memory of the card would only go up to around 300. at first i thought there was a problem with the card itself so i had to constantly erase the contents to make mp3s, files, pics, mpegs, etc fit. then i stumbled upon the pc command for formatting disks; there were 3 options to format the sd card: FAT, NTFS and FAT32. when i used fat32; the behavior was the same and the memory usage would only go up to 300 max. when using ntfs; my xda2 refused to recognie the card (it wouldn't show up in the explorer app). when i formatted using FAT, everything was great. i can now use the sd card to it's limits and am no longer restricted to the 300-mb trouble i was having.

question: what's the difference in the 3 formats? obviously using FAT was the best thing to do, but what's with the other formats?

2) i was having some problems with loading up mpegs in the sd card. i created folders (example: mp3s, movies, pics, etc). naturally i placed the mpeg files in the "movies" folder; when i used pocket tv to play them the files were not recognized. when i used pocket mvp video came out but a sign kept flashing "error in audio". when i loaded the mpeg files straight to the sd card (no folders assigned), pocket tv and pocket mvp played them perfectly.

question: anyone else experiencing this and if yes what's the story? the mp3 files are in a folder and i don't stumble into any issues with those items.

3) anyone know of a good vcd-ripper program where i can extract clips or create my own small mpeg files? i'd like to extract some of the more memorable scenes in some movies...rather than waste space by seeing scenes which bore me.

cheers mates

Some hints

Hi,

i also have a 512 meg sd card for my XDA 1, without any problems.

Try to format the card using the storagetools freeware:

http://www.pocketpccity.com/software/pocketpc/StorageTools-2002-4-5-ce-pocketpc.html

I also have mp3's and mpeg's on this card. Make sure that you use the latest version of activesync to tranfer the files to the sd card or use a sd card adapter (i use a pcmcia adapter).

here is how to produce your own media files for the ppc:

http://www.mathiaspohl.de/mda

There are 2 sections, 1st is about "How to create DIVx files" for the PPC, the second one is "How to create media files" (i.e. wmv) for this.

regards, Koponet
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] stryker:
Not too impressed with storagetools.

It only detected my XDA-IIs 14MB of ROM and not my 512MB SD card.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] monika69:
maybe you should try ....

format SD card within external SD reader attached to notebook, using some desktop application ... or try using

and verify SD media for errors ...

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Jargon:
FAT (File Allocation Table), FAT32 and NTFS (NT File System) are file systems originally made for disk partitions. FAT (also called FAT16) was the original file system used in DOS and has a partition size limit of 2 GB. FAT32, an extended variant of FAT16, was introduced first in Windows 95 OSR2 and increased the partition size limit to 2 terabytes. NTFS, a totally different file system, was introduced in Windows NT. Unlike the FAT file systems, NTFS has security and transaction rollback features. Random access to a huge file is also more efficient in NTFS. Moreover, while the file size limit on FAT32 is 4 GB, a file on NTFS can grow up to 16 exabytes (16 billion gigabytes).

question to JARGON please

today I have tested sandisk 512MB SD card ....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have 512MB SD card and am allowed to fill it up to the full limit of roughly 484MB and not 512MB, ok .. it is a matter of formatting plus a consequence of the fact that 1MB equals 1024kB but I am curious about the other thing .... I remember old times back with IPAQ + PCMCIA sleeve with inserted flash card 1280MB of sandisk - the size written on the back of the card WAS EXACTLY matching what PPC2002 was showing .... 1280MB

to me it seems like either different "disk geometry" or disk format - can anyone explain it to me pls

regards,

monika
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Jargon:
An SD card uses a portion of its memory for its security data. That's why you can't use the entire capacity of the SD card. That's also the reason why an MMC, which doesn't have the SD card's security features, has more available memory than an SD card with the same total capacity.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] monika69:
uuups, you are right ...

according to Sandisk SD card manual

http://www.sandisk.com/oem_sd_memorycard.html

user can access only 940,864 bytes plus 10,240 secure area (which are not accessed by user) ... what a rip-off on 512MB card format .. upppps :wink:

[General Questions and Answers] aditishriram:
I have an HTC One S (unlocked T-mobile) which runs on stock 4.0.4. And over the last 8 months all I have been doing is looking for a solution for my Wi-Fi issue. It worked perfectly fine initially. But then Wi-Fi suddenly stopped working. I don't remember clearly if this was after an OTA update or not. The Wi-Fi keeps trying to turn on but doesn't go past the "Turning on" phase. I can't even shut it and it drains my battery very fast because the phone never goes to sleep. I don't know if this is a software or hardware issue. I have tried practically everything including a Hard Reset. My phone is not under warranty so I need someone to help me fix this issue. Will a jelly bean update (whenever it does come) solve the issue? Or maybe rooting the phone to CM?
