Black is nice. But white als looking good. both color are nice side by side.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
I really hope Tmobile will come up with more colors. I had a White s2 and s3 and im just tired of white.. The black one looks great but the white one looks awesome.. but again.. The black one is a special edition color for tmobile.. They will change that to gray.. Just like they did with the s2 and s3.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] fuego77:
Have a white galaxy nexus, white galaxy s2, black nexus 4, and black galaxy S4

Comparing them side by side, black seems more masculine and premium.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] era246:
Black is best for the s4. If I had a s3 i would prefer white.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kingclo615:
Black

Definitely went with the black. It's more masculine and goes better with most themes out there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] menacke:
I bought the black because I had the white HTC amaze and it got stained and looked bad after a couple months and I chose the titanium s3 instead of white for that same reason. I don't think it looks feminine since it's white and honestly my wife was like eww don't get the white so to each his own I just think the black is classy and professional
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] richardlibeau:
Black all day long. White is too bright
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxKINGxX2580:
Black definitely. White looks feminine to me. and with black phones, you can't see scratches and dust as much as in white phones.

black S4 here... has white note2, didnt like it at all
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ddizzy81:
Ur kidding right ? That's completely opposite lol. Black phones u can see every little damn dust particle and scratches come out easier. With a white phone the only flaw is that if you let it get dirty it shows easier

black mist. the back shimmering pattern on the back is more apparent which i find beautiful, so i prefer that over the white. plus i think the black color matches better with the spigen neo hybrid case/bumpers like the dante red and reventon yellow for example.

I went with white and it goes great with my pink and white body glove hybrid otter box type case, and my speck coral and Sea green case. I have the note 1 and I went white as well and it still looks pristine, but it's been in a case since day one. I like the white because it works well with the bright and colorful cases and walk papers that I use.

White all the way for me. I'm kind of partial to white phones. I just think that they have a more sleek look. Most of my phones have been black, so the white is a nice change.

I got the black because I had the white s3 and wanted to change it up
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nightf0x:
I got white as it may heat up less when I mount it on the dash for navigation and scratches are less visible on white
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Definitely agree that having a white phone or anything else white shouldn't be classified as a "feminine". If that's the case then owning a white car, t-shirt or shoes is a "no-no" lol. I personally chose the white s4 and never regret my decision. I've owned black and grey phones so many times before in the past, and just decided I would like something different this time around.

Now I like a black phone if it had another color to offset it, like the red highlights on the Droid DNA... but just an all black phone... that's just a little to plain for me :cool:

First of all, thanks for being mods of the forum.

Now, for the complain.

Come on guys.. this forum looks horrible with all the "Moved" topics. They look bad, cause cluster, and confuse noobs into thinking they are topics for the Samsung 9505.

I don't know if you guys know, but the topics that contain "Moved" can be deleted, and it won't delete the actual topic.

So come on, lets get this forum neat and organized.

Feel free to delete this topic once the forum has been cleaned.

Thank you,

Of course, I also have had you have similar ideas, but I want to let it stand on the table, so I went and bought a stent, thought you could have thought of lying in bed watching the movie without the book to take the machine, was the best. I suggest that the wall in your room you install a bracket, or a rope hanging from the ceiling, and then put the machine back with a strong adhesive tied on it.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elchemist:
Wow thanks for all the suggestions. Man I was really hesitant on posting this question at first cuz of the lazy factor :p

The pillow idea sounds good I will have to give that a try first.

The retractable arm looks epic... I will have to take that under some serious consideration... It looks entirely possible for me to mount that on the headboard. Heck it even looks like a conversation starter... "Hey baby wanna check out my bed/tablet mount?" :victory:

The DIY project looks interesting... I may just have to try that just for fun.

The gogopillow looks interesting... I am wondering if anyone has tried it yet... The only possible downside I can see is the tablet getting hot.

Any link for the belkin case or even the name of it?

Thanks again, and I hope this might have helped others who are just as lazy but was too lazy to ask.

Is there any metal cases for the s4? Not aluminum but real metal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marketingmike:
well...

first off aluminum is a real metal, so not sure what you mean by that. what metal would you like to see? I haven't seen one that is solid metal. http://www.droid-life.com/2013/04/29/buy-this-metal-back-cover-for-your-galaxy-s4-if-youre-tired-of-the-plastic/

there is one back cover.

the other one I know of is the spigen slim armor, But it is not all metal either. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BW6GIP2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] iunlock:
If you have great signal where you're at... awesome, but if you struggle with signal, getting a metal case isn't a good idea from my experience. You may lose a bar or two. I have had more cases than I can count, ordering them like a kid in a candy store, except this time around with the S4. Having had issues before, if you do get one, I'd be interested in how it works for you because I wouldn't mind having a metal case myself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wavrunrx:
The spigen has no metal whatsoever. It's polycarbonate and tpu.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marketingmike:
My mistake then, I know previous spigen cases have had metal versions in the past. with a quick amazon search I saw it and just assumed.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carmageddon1984:
Hello!

I have SGS I900 which has GB 2.3.4.

I was following instructions as per http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_galaxysmtd

Which for some stupid reason neglected to mention I should enable USB Debugging before the process!

Anyway, after flashing this kernel using heimdall 1.3.1 on Ubuntu, I found out I cant do adb push to place the zip file on the phone.

I tried to mount the SDCARD throguh usb using CW recovery - it worked, but I tried twice, each time transfer speed drops at the last 20mb (out of 158 mb), but eventually after like 10 minutes it finished copying.

However in both attempts, it failes to open the zip file when I try to install.

I am also unable to boot the phone as its in endless loop on the logo.

What do you suggest I do now to get it running properly?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:

Yes I can, but how to flash a stock rom, if I cant properly transfer the update.zip file?

I would also appreciate a link to stock kernel, because I havent been able to find one.. since I dont now what to flash now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
Go onto sammobile.com and under the Firmware section download a stock 2.3.6 rom.

Then download Odin (its not that hard to get online), any version should do.

Unzip the rom you downloaded. Leave the files as they are (you should get two files, a .tar file and a dl or something like that. We only want the .tar file).

Note that for this you don't need to put anything on the SD. You just need to have things on your computer.

Open Odin. Put the phone into Download mode by using the 3 button method (Vol. Down + home + power button). Once you get the "Downloading!" logo, onnect the phone to the computer (with Odin open) via USB. One of the boxes in Odin should light yp saying ID:COM: with a number next to it. That means Odin's read the device.

Select PDA, click on the .tar file you unzipped from the download. DON'T touch anything else.

Select Start and it should flash in.

That should fix your problem hopefully:D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] akremene:
After upgrading my Galaxy S2 Skyrocket to Gelly Bean I am getting 2-3 very short gaps in audio playback exactly every 10 minutes. It occurs in all players and streaming audio. I suspect that there is some process running in the background, which performs very high CPU power consuming operation every 10 minutes and this leads to delay in audio processing. Is there any way to detect, which application or process is responsible for such annoying behavior?
