Canadian Telus, rooted, pie loaded, backed up, debloated and extremely happy.

I pre-ordered 2 of the LG Optimus Pro G phones (because AT&T kept the 32gb release date top secret). Kept them 1 day before going in and trading them for 2 S4's. We both could not be happier with them. LG's were not bad phones...just not nearly as good as these.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kevinl86:
So I've come from the S2 Skyrocket, Then S3, now my 16GB S4. I am totally satisfied with my purchase. A few things I want to highlight,

1.) Phone is just extremely fast at everything it does, no matter what you throw at it.

2.) Battery life is PHENOMENAL. It's nothing like my past two phones, this takes the crown.

3.) With the OEM Charger this phone charges FAST. Like insanely fast.

4.) Adapt sound configured to my ear, opened my Google Play Music app, using the stock headphones I have seriously never heard sound so beautiful. A whole new level of perfection.

5.) The stock camera/app takes some seriously professional looking photos that I can't even believe my eyes sometimes. My cellphone took that picture??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] King Cole:
And they haven't even come out with any custom ROMs or anything yet. Thrilling thought.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
Agreed, one we see some great lean ROMs with no boat at all it will be very fun :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
+1 there...we gonna all have some fun soon. The devs will rock this device for sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
What mae you want to trade the G pros for the S4s?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
Had an LG Optimus G, it was ok but something about it made me not want to keep it. Might just have a personal bias against LG. SLOW at updates too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] yeahitsgotahemii:
Loving this phone. I am in auto sales. went from GS2 --> GS3---> Note 2 (which is a great unit)-----> GS4. This is by far the best unit i have had to date. For myself i thought that the note 2 would be more useful with the s-pen, I never use it. So i am now incredibly happy with my s4. The note2 was so heavy that when it put it in my front dress shirt pocket the sheer weight of it pulling down was enough to expose my manly chest hamburger, driving the ladies wild:) This has become a non issue now with my galaxy s4, its much lighter and fits in my pocket well. Thanks samsung!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] stevehkim:
The ladies probably hate your s4 then?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gotgame740:
I love my S4. No lag over here, especially with nova launcher. Also, if you disable the double tap of the home button to launch s voice, the home button is a lot more responsive
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kevinl86:
I put my S4 in my front pocket, as you might have guessed, no complaints from the ladies over here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jimsond:
I am EXTREMELY happy with my S4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Aim006:
I love this phone! 'Awesome screen, camera, battery life. It has really cool features. All my friends wanted to try out the new air gestures when I told them about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dahlem:
Love mine too! The only issue I'm having is with bluetooth cycling on and off in the car. Anyone else having this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] YoungBloodz:
Good to see all these happy reviews of the S4, I was researching between it and the HTC One and I made my decision on the S4 so I can't wait to get mine, just have a few questions:

1) After removing the bloatware on the 16gb version, how much space is there to be used for apps and everything else?

2) Does anyone know if there are any plans for the 32gb version to be released in White (This is the one thing holding me up from buying the phone right because if it was available in White I would have it by now haha).

Thanks to anyone that can answer the questions, and can't wait to get my S4 and move on from my iPhone 4S!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] BIGSx420:
I had so many issues with my first s4 but I went in the store about to exchange and get the htc one but I walked out with an s4 again. & This 2nd one is working great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
So i decided to trade my s4 16gb for a 64gb HTC one. Fast Forward one week: Im ready to come back to Samsung :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oldblue910:
This is my first non-Nexus device in over 2 years. I had a Nexus 4 on AT&T month to month, but the other day it took a bath in the toilet. Fried.

So, since I originally brought my own phone to AT&T, I was eligible for an upgrade. I have four other devices with stock Android, so I figured I could pick up a non-vanilla phone for a change. I decided on a white Galaxy S4 and also picked up the OEM smart window cover because I'm just a sucker for stuff like that. I also like the fact that the smart cover doesn't have the AT&T branding on the back.

The first order of business was to disable all the AT&T crap that comes preinstalled. I then selectively disabled all the Samsung stuff that wasn't crucial to serving the phone's core features. After that, I started playing around. Now, as you can see from my signature, I'm a stock Android guy through and through, so Touchwiz took me some getting used to. It really is beautiful, though, and there are pieces of it that I wish Google would incorporate into the vanilla experience.

One thing that REALLY surprised me is that the smart scroll and smart pause actually work, so long as the lighting in the room is adequate.

Overall, 24 hours in, I'm pretty happy with it. I'm sure I'll have some complaints as I use it more, but so far, so good. My only substantial complaint so far is the AT&T logo and sound during boot. Because, you know, customers need to be reminded who their daddy is every time they start their phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] netsyd:
Root it then rename PowerOn.ogg in /system/media/audio/ui .. that way you don't wake up half the city if you reboot your phone at night. :)

I'm really enjoying the S4 (came from a Note 2 and still have my Nexus4) but without some of the tweaks - for example Nottach - and renaming a few UI sounds I don't think I'd be as happy.

All around though - one of the better devices I've had lately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oldblue910:
Yeah I may root it at some point. It'd be nice if the bootloader was unlockable like Nexus devices, but rooting it doesn't seem very difficult.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AutoUnion:
I've owned more than enough Android phones recently and I keep coming back to Samsung. They know what they're doing these days. I bought an XPERIA Z and its complete crap. My buddy bought an HTC One and thinks its the best thing ever, but his battery barely lasts a day and he has the capacitive button problem.

- sent from Galaxy S4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oldblue910:
Capacitive buttons have been the hardest thing for me to get used to again. I haven't had capacitive buttons on a device for over a year now. I can't tell you how many times I've found myself saying "where the hell is the overflow menu??" not realizing I have a capacitive menu button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
There's an app in the s4 themes and apps section that is similar to apps2sd which works for the s4. So assuming you have an microSD card that should nullify both your concerns :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] stevehkim:
I was undoubtably happy with my S4 before the exploit with just root. Now after the exploit and we can use I9505, TMO, sprint, ect. The freakin possibilities are endless. Where are the HTC fanbois now? :D

ATT S4 Rooted. Beastin.

4.2.2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
Very happy with mine. But that is easy to say coming from iPhone, and blackberry before that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Phoneguy589:
I'm very happy with my s4. Wish we could all just get along sometimes. :D At first I thought it wasn't much different than the s3 but the features make it really customizable. Djrbliss has given us a great exploit and the other devs have been great. Can't thank them enough.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
LOL, people are really passionate. I have both HTC One and S4 on my desk, and im constantly playing with both. If i can have the One do the same battery performance as the s4, I would probably keep the One. Swappable, faster charging and larger S4 battery is a big deal for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Phoneguy589:
Depends on when you catch me. ;) I'm in the hospital with my 8 year old daughter who has an unknown reason for a high white cell blood count. I've been playing with my phone all night while she slept and if it weren't for helping others or flashing, my nerves would be shot more than they are now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ap3604:
Oof, sorry to hear brotha. I hope they get that figured out soon for both her and you. I just finished my pediatric clinical rotation this last semester and always made sure the parents (in addition to my patient of course) were comfortable since the hospital can be a pretty stressful place on once your sleep is being constantly interrupted every 1-4 hours for vital signs, meds, etc. It's good that you have a hobby and community behind you to help pass the waiting time though. Glad she's got a great dad that's there to help her through it :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] skedi:
I've owned both the S4 and the HTC One. Sold my S4 last week. I really did enjoy the S-View Flip Cover.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] andrawer:
Hum, I just came from a HTC One (a very nice phone)...but the S4 just suits me a bit better.

Anyway, why do I like my S4?

-The plastic cover is light, strong, and removable,

-Large 5" screen for my maturing eyes,

-You can turn off most everything if you don't like a particular feature,

-Removable battery just in case I keep this phone for a long time (unlikely) and the battery should suffer...I can just replace it...might helps resale,

-It has a menu, back and home buttons,

-I like all the sensors,

-Feels smooth to the hand...no sharp edges or inputs.

-It appears just as rugged as my Note2 (2 phones prior...which I dropped numerous times),

-Power on/off button is in a natural position,

-It has the newest gorilla "3" screen.

-I can choose the type of screen display (i.e. movie mode, natural, etc.).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
It is, I still have both but I still like the s4 more, if only the battery life was comparable and the stupid ultra pixel camera was an 8mp to compare with the detail the S4 grabs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Phoneguy589:
Turns out she's had a couple infections but is responding to high dose rocephin. Glad it wasn't worse and thanks for your concern.

I do wish I could afford a couple of devices as I've heard good things about the one. I went from iPhones to the atrix, the skyrocket, the note and then the s3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gravenailz:
I have only had my S4 fot a couple of days but...

This phone freekin' rocks!

The screen is obscene. 1080 video anyone? Being able to run two screens/windows at once is really cool. Typing messages, web surfing and watching videos at the same time, who would have thought? I have heard some people mention lag. I have not experienced any so far. I just can't wait for the rom development to settle down so I can really unlock this baby's full potential.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] songsongsong:
sorry LOL that was a great line old blue!

also take heed to the above comment on how to get rid of your boot animation. I replaced mine with the international versions bootscreen which is just a simple samsung branded one. I also disabled the sound!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] plwalsh88:
I hope she gets better!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Pulga89:
Well, this is my first and only Android device, after using dumbphones for years and then switching to iOS on 2010... And I can honestly say this is the best phone I've ever used. Super fast and powerful, yet light and comfortable to use. The screen is a huge plus, especially for me since I have a visual impairment. The cameras are amazing (for a phone, of course). And the battery life is waaay better than I expected. I think I'm in love with this phone! My only regret is not waiting for the 32GB model...I was an early adopter and I can't return it now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] galaxyS4fandom:
Considering that before I got this S4, I was using a Kyocera Rise... I am very happy with my S4 xD Now that we can flash roms is even more awesome! Though I did some benchmark tests with the first rom I flashed and I noticed a 4k point loss. Stock actually ran graphics better. So ill be searching through roms to find that one beauty ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Qbeezy24:
I love the s4! it's fast and and the battery life is very good and im coming from a note 2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ichorid:
Im happy with it, its still hard to get used to android coming from a day 1 iOS user. Im running CM 10.1 right now on it, and the camera application is terrible. I actually liked a few of the TW rom features, and Im debating going back to stock.

I use DashClock, and Nova launcher anyway. Its not like CM 10.1 is really giving me any bonuses. NFC was awesome, CM 10.1 doesnt have it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] :
Latest build of CM 10.1 has NFC
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ichorid:
oh does it now? OFF TO THE CHANGE LOGS!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] haremmon:
I finally moved on from a jailbroken iPhone 4 (yea it's pretty old phone) to galaxy s4.

There are so many freedom I can do now w/ my galaxy s4 being rooted. Especially replacing custom rom over Samsung's touchwiz. Plus, galaxy s4 has best camera. Every apps I use tend to run smoothly w/o any problem.

I like a smartphone which I have control over, which reminds me to customize my phone's UI w/ theme soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] KLLSWITCH:
came from the note 2 to this very happy so far still have the note 2 just incase tho haha:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Aldiggi:
What ROM are you guys rocking?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fix-this!:
the only thing i dislike about the s4 is how lightweight it feels. other than that im enjoying it.

ill also add the vibration strength of this phone isn't all to great.

Oh so u don't break the rules, S4 ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I have 3 days to return my HTC and get the s4. So if you guys help me I can change to the right side.

Taco!!!! The Skyrocket general talk about anything thread originator!!! Get rid of that crap and get the S4!!

But yes, all S4 variants except for the i9500 are identical, so all of their ROMs work for us. The i9505 is the international variant that is identical. Here are a few threads...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] androidpod:
I could not agree more.

I've had every iPhone, and every Galaxy S since they were both introduced. I've also had a few HTC's like the new One, and some Droids from Verizon. The point being I am on various forums, and see more complaints on every kind of phone you could imagine.

The point? There's a portion of the population that just loves to whine and complain.

Me? I choose to focus on and enjoy the good features each smartphone offers, while keeping in mind there is NO perfect phone.

To the AT&T S4?

Of all the smartphones I've had to date, this is one very impressive phone as it comes stock, right out of the box. So much so, it's the first Android I've used box stock for this long.

Oh sure at some point I'm going to start making the mods I usually do, just to make it mine, but I am very impressed with the progress of both Samsung and Google Android.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Slade8525:
i loved the One, but i liked the S4 more. Loved the S3 and Atrix 4G too. Smart rotation, smart stay, and the IR blaster are the most useful things (and the most logical; ive been wanting an IR remote on my phone since about 2004). Other than that, its really just a piece of hardware; they all have faults.

Its incredible that these tiny slabs of glass, plastic, and metal can do so much; kudos to human ingenuity, science, and that need to always push the boundaries, because we can.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gogators1:
I don't know of its been said... But these phones hv to be learned.. It really lazy that ppl would think the phone will be set up to the way "they" like. The lag issue? What lag.. I hv no lag what so ever.. Learn ur phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ziggy46:
Ill have mine soon :D can't wait. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] norbarb:
Just my 5 cents... I got mine as soon as they come out and i love it. I had Infuse, Skyrocket, Galaxy S3 and now S4 i love everything about. I have no idea why people complaining about lag, screen problems, bad sound, no autocorrection etc... PEOPLE WAKE UP THIS IS PHONE !!!!! Not everything doing transformer from other planet. Stop complaing and start enjoying what you got. To this people who don't like it : Send it to me i pay cost of shipping...:) I'm happy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] FrayAdjacent:
I went from a Galaxy Nexus on VZW to the S4 on AT&T.

I am nothing but HAPPY. This phone ROCKS, and I get '4G' (AT&Ts fast 3G) at home and in the town I live close to. VZW's 3G was spotty out here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] -TheMessiah-:

Hey S4 peeps...

Anyone here use an aluminum battery door on their phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] its_dale:
received one by mistake (sent me the wrong item when i ordered a leather back cover). I tried it on and immediately noticed a drop in wifi signal and cell signal. I took it off and gave it away lol. I dont need to extra strain trying to reach better signal and draining my battery. I now have that leather back cover and love it. No signal issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Easton999GS:
You did literally exactly what i did. GNex running Paranoid Android with AK Kernel SKL to a Galaxy S4 AT&T i love HSPA+ i had full LTE on Verizon here but HSPA+ is giving me 10mbps down and my battery life is so much better with the GS4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] surge27:
Which one did you get?

I saw a review where that didn't happen

i want to ask

if my phone in download mode ... i see costum bin 0 and always 0

many times my phone was flash stock firmware..

but custom bin always 0

is this normaly?

I'm sorry about my stupid english
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
Yes it is normal. Same with me. Its still at 0 and samsung official.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] deathnotice01:
better be happy that it's zero,

it means your warranty is still intact
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] menewtoroot:
Yeps.. Its normal.. I still wonder why savie made an tool to reset it :confused:

** rooting is new for me,

nd i am a noob to root....:D:D**
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
I think doky made the tool.

Try to flash kernel from psychogame's build and your bin coounter will increase (i've read someone talking about this issue).

What different custom bin 0 and increase to 1 2 3 and etc?

I mean...custom bin not 0 again?

Thanks for answear my noob question
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
Yup.

It will increase in numbers. I haven't seen it as i've never flashed the psychogame's kernel or any other thing that will increase the bin count. You'll lose warranty with increased count. To reset it to zero, you can use galaxy toolbox app.

A Hero Can Be Anyone.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Zius:
i think flashing custom kernel via Odin will make the bin counter bigger than the previous?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
It will increase by one. But I have heard this in only psychogame's kernel, not in percy's. You can reset it anyways.

My custome bin counter was increased, when i flashed merruk's kernels(1.8 & pre2.0) via odin, a long time ago . But i resetted it with Sir Doky's custom bin counter resetter.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Zius:
flashing whitexp's kernel also increase it.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Khizar Amin:
well same is my case

i guess most of our kernels are built on stock samsung source with some moddifications

so our phone thinks its something official by samsung

After using galaxy y for 1.5 years i had lost all hope of increasing this bin count but psycho game came to the rescue :)

I flashed his given boot.tar with his cm7 and was shocked(positively) to see my bin count increased :)

Bin counts increased immediately on my s2 as soon as i flashed a custom kernel but i was rather sad that my galaxy y's bin counts dont increase

they have finally increased

my current bin count is 4 :)

because i flashed that boot.tar 4 times :)

Considering the post "freedom.apk for new play store" that has been closed....

First of all, I agree that piracy is the major concern then this is the problem of the Android operating system itself. What you guys is dating here is like blaming people who make computer virus and malware instead of making your computer less venerable to these virus. Secondly, I know that some of you are hardworking developers who make great products and deserve a true support, but I consider about those multimillion dollar companies such as EA that thinks about every single way to drain the money out of your pocket with unreasonable reasons (e.g in app purchase that requires to fix your car every time you repair your car in Real Racing), sometime you really want to make some trick to make the game fairer. As we all know, paying a dollar for a independent developer is far meaningful that paying a dollar for a multimillion company. So by using our knowledge and fair decision, we can make a better world. So don't worry, a TRUE developer always deserves what they make.
