And I bet most of those people claiming their GS4s broke in their pocket were iPhone fanboys, wanting to damage Samsung's reputation.

Why would I say such a thing? Because I used to be one of those fanboys... :(

It's ok, you've moved on from that dark part of your life :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Pulga89:
Yup, and I've never been happier with a new phone! I don't think I'm ever going back... :)

My boss at work is an Apple Fan and even himself said he would rather have the S4 after trying my phone. He says it even looks and feels better, HA IN YOH FACE APPLE!

Btw sorry to any real Apple fans, they are a great company!

Well, I loved the iPhone, but I was constantly waiting for a jailbreak to come out for each iOS version, just to quickly lose my jaikbreak if something went wrong and a restore was needed. And knowing that these headaches don't happen as often on android, and that rooting is not as necessary as a jailbreak on iOS, made me make the switch. And I'm glad I did.

I still prefer the iPhone's build materials though. I've never been a fan of plastic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Bojamijams:
The Samsung fanboyism here is just as bad as Apple fanboyism, but because its here, its okay right? Its hilarious that the fanboys here don't see the hypocrisy of their statements. Pretending there is no issue and kissing ass to Samsung isn't going to get us, as the consumer, anything positive. Samsung doesn't care about you and more then Apple does.

Read the thread yourself. One person witnessed the screen crack while they were having their contacts transferred to their new S4 at the store. Obviously he got a new one right then and there but it WAS just sitting there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] h3lluvaninjuhneer:
For all those who say it's impossible for a screen to crack with no external force applied, that's not necessarily true. I believe I read somewhere that the S4's AMOLED screen and the Gorilla Glass 3 are glued together. If that's true, then it is possible that poor assembly technique could lead to internal stress in the assembly. For example, the two pieces should be allowed sufficient time for temperature normalization in a (temperature & humidity) controlled environment prior to assembly (gluing together); failure to do so would cause a bending stress (bending moment) pre-load in the assembled display.

I imagine poor assembly procedures would end up as batch-to-batch variation, so maybe there are some bad batches out there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Bojamijams:
I'm thinking the same thing (bad batch).. or maybe these are all late friday models (for those who don't know this term, its used in the auto industry. cars made late on a friday afternoon are said to be generally inferior since workers mentally 'check out' and start thinking about the weekend and don't pay attention/care to what they're doing.

Its dissapointing that Samsung is pretending its not an issue. This should be covered under the 1 year manufacturer warranty. I don't know if it'll happen to me but

now I'm forced to pay for extra warranty just to protect myself in case this happens. My next phone probably won't be a Samsung because of this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] burhanistan:
Sorry, but this kind of talk is just silly and pointless. Every time someone complains about a possible defect there's always a chorus of nerds who say "well, it's not happening to me so it must be your fault". It's tiresome. Maybe many of the cracked S4s weren't treated like raw eggs, but maybe the S4 cracked where other phones (notably the iPhone) would not. It's obviously kind of a delicate device.

Now, maybe people should be aware of that when they are selecting a phone, but the responses here swing too far into a weird kind of victim-blaming type area. It's not unreasonable to expect some durability from a phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pezlomd:
My gf dropped her s4 case less on concrete 4 times now and has only had a few scuffs on bezel/rim.. Clearly the phones that broke so easily had defects
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] chriskwarren:
If the glass and the screen are glued together, I would wonder what the effects of cooling and heating would be? Two devices glued together, expanding and contracting at different rates would do some strange things.

This would explain the story about the screen cracking while contacts were being transferred; cold phone sitting in a box, and it heated up too quickly as the battery, wifi, data, processor all revved up after just being powered on.

I understand why folks would be suspicious of stories on the internetz of phones breaking; today, very few people seem to want to take responsibility for their actions, such as sitting on their new expensive toy. But to dismiss such claims right away on a newly-released device when we don't know of all its faults yet is not wise either. Sometimes karma is a *****.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] h3lluvaninjuhneer:
I finally found the source of my information that the screen and glass are glued together: iFixit. Quote:

And yes, although glass (and particularly engineered glasses such as Gorilla Glass, which is something of a derivative product of heat-resistant Pyrex) is inherently a poor conductor of heat, a steep temperature gradient across the glass (from within the phone to without) could lead to increased stresses between the component parts -- the screen and glass -- which in turn could increase the odds of screen/glass breakage.

All in all, there is cause for concern here, so I for one will not take undue risks with my new $700 toy; mine will ride in a ruggedized case.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tedmm:
Depends on which pocket you put it in, too. I've owned an iPhone 3G, an iPhone 3GS, an iPhone 4, a Galaxy Nexus, two iPhone 4S's, an iPhone 5, and now a Galaxy S4, and I've never damaged any of them in spite of always putting them in my pocket. But it was always a FRONT pocket in my jeans.

Women's jeans have tiny front pockets if they have front pockets at all. My wife's iPhone 3G developed cracks in its case after a few months because she would keep it in her BACK pocket.

I think it's amazing that people can sit ON a 4"-5" smartphone in their back pockets and that it DOESN'T just snap in half. Kudos to all the mechanical engineers that make this possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Xceptiona1noob:
From my searches Dr Google has told me its not possible, but I thought I would ask anyways. Can I scan my prox badge for work using my cell phone and then use my phone to emulate that card? From what I read NFC is an offshoot of RFID, so I would think its possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slade8525:
i do not believe these will code most standard RFID badges or emulate them correctly. i put RFID reader and lock solenoids in my car so unless the proper RFID chip is near the reader, the doors will not unlock and the car will not start. i was actually looking at doing something like this with NFC and the stereo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Xceptiona1noob:
I just watched this video, my dreams of being able to copy the prox badge have got to be possible?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yjfc60LGjik

if they are able to proxy, I would think you could also save that data and just push it back out...that or I am fully misunderstanding how this works which is also very possible.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnBox:
Hey guys,

I was innocently listening to music at the office when I noticed that I didnt have any reception when I tried to send a text. Reception is pretty spotty in my office so I went outside and still got 0 bars even though my data was working. So I reset my phone and now its stuck on the glowing samsung logo :( I tried to boot it into recovery mode but it just says "recovery booting" and nothing loads after 10 minutes...

Any ideas what to do? I haven't tried to flash any roms onto it yet cause I'm still at the office but I'm just panicking haha anyone else experience this problem before? My phone has been running completely fine for the past few weeks before this and I havent had a single issue with it...

Thanks!

Update: I got home, flashed a custom recovery onto it and did a factory reset and still it gets stuck on the glowing samsung screen :( Downloading a ROM now... HALP T_T

Download the zip file http://d-h.st/oeD or https://www.megacloud.com/s/edCDMNgtMgZ/LockScreen3.apk or http://www.4shared.com/android/amByBILW/LockScreen3.html

Don't flash

Extract via any root file manager, inside zip system>app>lockscreen3.apk will there(only this apk is needed) and copy it to root>system>app>and change the permission and reboot

Take a backup of default 4x lockscreen3.apk

I'm installed in stock v20a jb

When you reboots your device you will see STARTING APPS every time after bootanimation, go to root>system>app and lockscreen3.odex then rename it to lockscreen3.bak and reboot twice

There's the RC2 which is somewhat a stable release. I mean sure thing take your time, there's always the option to do a nandroid backup and go back to stock whenever you want. But anyways, best of luck!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] akshay.mehta9:
If you are using CM so i can upload the lockscreensetting.apk for you then download it and lockscreen3.apk then remove cm lockscreens apps and copy these two apk in system>app and change permission rw-r-r and reboot with your luck
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
Thats dewdrop effect, not ripple. Maybe you should be the one to get glasses?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] akshay.mehta9:

If it's not for you so I'm sorry
[LG Optimus 4X HD] akshay.mehta9:
Friend i searched any were in xda and theres i don't found any ripple effect working lockscreen all haves serious bugs

Its the same like all lockscreen in this forum..i dont see any bugfix on your here.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] akshay.mehta9:
What you mean?

I have unlimited but slow net speed connection but i'm uploaded the app in 3 cloud servers to share it for those they want to use it

If you don't confident with my post so simply don't waste your time here.

And afterall if you install it or not thats not makes any difference in me
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dadovvv:

[LG Optimus 4X HD] akshay.mehta9:
I'm using it in stock jb v20a

it's works perfectly, so what I'm lucky

I think you did some mistakes in permission

After upgrading android it's directly reboots?

Yes :(

Sorry for the dumb question...

Hi guys... (I have a Blue Angel: PDA2K)

I am really sorry to ask you such a dumb question, but... what does exactly this "autoconfig" file do?

Does it just do the SMS/MMS/E-mail settings or does it also alter somethingelse

-other applicaiton, languages, installs something else

-E-mail accounts sets ups in terms of login, pwds...

-install other logos or operator specific personalizations

Does it substitute or integrate any orignial autoconfig of my device?

E.g. after an hardreset would just this outoconfig run and set up my connection but the origianal stuffs (programms etc...) that would normally load after an hardreset no install automatically?

Have you used it?

Where did you got it from?

Does it inclused Tim?

Thanks!

For older Samsung phone models, Samsung is locating system apps in preload data to have more memory in system.

I don't see how having more free space in system could possibly result in better performance...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattix724:
You are correct.

Moving apps to a /preload partition means that those apps need to be symbolically linked back to the /system partition. The phone will scan the /system partition when it boots up and then will follow the symlinks to the /preload partition.

It may not take a whole lot of time but it will actually take slightly longer to boot up.

If your app is connecting to a remote server to login, PHP and MySQL is the way to go. If your app queries a local database on the phone, use sqlite.

Any word on if this notebook will have products from otterbox? I need the high protection cases.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] Grogck:
I Googled that earlier today and a post on another site/forum said they got a response from Otterbox that said they won't support it. Kind of surprising IMO as Samsung seems to be the player with all the mojo right now with other accessory makers falling all over themselves to support them. I know these will not sell as many as cheaper tablets like the Tab 2 7", but it's still a bit surprising. This is a device that begs to be used by a more active/mobile professional crowd v/s most other tablets.

I'm not too familiar with Otterbox, but the STM Cape is a very well built and protective case (at least for the kind of case it is). If Otterbox cases are super heavy duty protected this is probably not to the same level, but I've been really happy and impressed with the protective qualities of my STM Cape case. Far, far more protective and durable than the Samsung Book Cover, and at a lower price as well. :)
