You will love movie mode. It takes a couple days to get used to come from other modes, but now even the standard mode looks like crap compared to movie. P.s. Movie mode has been highly rated by a couple of professional display reviewers.

I am a simple man. I chose the S4 because I had the S2, and because it had a removable battery and sd card slot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] getbuzzin:
I went with the s4 after seeing that commercial where the lady's phone is ringing and she turned it over to ignore the call. I was like wow, I want that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] megagodx:
Reasons why I chose the S4 over the HTC One? Simple, it's more practical and more ideal for productivity and long road trips.

- I like the 1080p AMOLED screen to the SLCD 3 on the HTC One. Richer colors or more realistic ones on the former [choices]

- Better battery life

- Removable battery for further life

- SD Card, more potential capacity [you can root and mesh your internal and external storage for applications/games]

- More pleasant aesthetics

- Preferred UI

- More software offerings [some gimmicks, some useful, but at least they're offered to the consumer]

- Bigger display on the same sized body as the HTC One

- Faster RAM [LDDR3 vs LDDR2]

- Capacitive touch screen works with gloves [great for the winter]

- Won't damage as badly as the metal chassie on the One over time from wear and tear

I used a HTC One for a week, I end up exchanging it for a Galaxy S4 because the 4MP Camera couldn't get enough details for my needs & the battery life wasn't as good as GS4..

I tried them all, and the S4 just feels better in the hand and I've just become accustomed to the perks of running with Samsung.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oldblue910:
Two words...that screen. I came from owning nothing but Nexus devices the last two years. I had the chance to fall in love with the Super AMOLED screens on the Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus, and the incredible PLS display on those Nexus 10. What do they all have in common? Samsung. The screen on the Nexus 4 is nice, but once you're used to Samsung's screens, nothing else quite compares.

After being on nothing but stock Android for two years, I have to say that Touchwiz has really impressed me as well. I feel like, I'm cheating on a girlfriend or something when I say that, but it's true. Touchwiz has a fair number of things that I wish Google would implement into the stock UI and UX.

Overall, I'm very happy with this phone. I just hope that AT&T actually allows Samsung to keep this phone up to date. AT&T and T-Mobile are both the worst when it comes to updates. With Verizon and Sprint, the updates may take time to go through approvals and testing, but they will eventually be released. AT&T and T-Mobile on the other hand are known to actually tell manufacturers that they're going to pass on an update made available to them. Cases in point:

1. T-Mobile passed on the Windows Phone 7.8 update for the Lumia 710 even though Nokia made it available.

2. T-Mobile passed on the Ice Cream Sandwich update for the LG G2X even though LG made it available.

3. AT&T still has not allowed Samsung to release Jelly Bean for the original Galaxy S2 I777 model, even though they allowed it for the Skyrocket.

4. AT&T still has not allowed Samsung to release the Galaxy S3 update that includes the premium suite of GS4 features. Now that Verizon approved the update this week, AT&T is the only major carrier left who hasn't allowed the update to happen.

5. AT&T's Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is the only variant left worldwide (I believe) that has not received an update to Jelly Bean.

Don't even get me started on what AT&T did to block and hold off the Android 2.2 update for the Dell Streak 5. Anyway, you see my point. If Samsung keeps up their amazing sales momentum, you figure they will soon have enough clout to strongarm carriers into handling updates themselves like Apple does.

Pending update issues aside, this phone is simply amazing. For leaving stock Android for a skin, I couldn't be happier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lovepump:
I had an HTC One, while I really enjoyed sense and everything the phone offered I could not help but feed my curiosity. I gave my wife the One and used her upgrade to get the 4. I would be lying if I said I got the 4 for anything other than running stock Android when the Galaxy S4 nexus edition comes out. So far I like the screen size and phone size more than the One, I cannot wait to see how this beast phone runs stock Android!!:cool::eek::cowboy:

what does this tool do?

I have a serious problem with my pda2k (blue angel) it was working quite fine until i got greedy & decided to upgrade, so i downloaded the wm6 upgrade for it, it got nowhere before it went dead n stuck in some weird mode, all that appeared on the screen was USB/Serial v2.07 i googled the problem and some kind person was instructing another dummy like myself about this software called "mtty1.42.rar" i downloaded it and followed instructions carefully, since then my pda has revived but not without new problems.

first of all the bluetooth has stopped working, claiming license has expired, it's griping about not enough memory to run certain programs it used to run and it's not playing certain audio i used to play on there:mad:

what can I do to get back even my old pda? I have done hard reset too many times to count.

and I wanted to retrieve the Rom Original then downloaded from the Samsung site http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I8150 and flashed use odin

But in download mode shows.

custom binary : No

product name : GT-I8150

current binary : samsung !!

Does this mean that he returned to the original ??

Especially current binary: samsung !! it's normal or to be another name like Official ??? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Madridii:
If you flashed The Stock ROM with odin and give you PASS and the phone reboot normally, now your phone has everythin official ( kernel, recovery and the system ) ..

and there is no binary in our phone .. you still have the warranty ;)

How to fix your bricked KF2/otter2 with a red screen​

Preparation:

Amazon recently fixed the secruity hole, that was used to flash second bootloader and TWRP recovery.

After you flashed TWRP recovery/second bootloader and rebooted the device you will see a red screen. You can do nothing at this point withoud a pc.

So to reopen the secruity hole you have to downgrade the bootloader via fastboot.

In order to enter Fastboot mode you have to have a fastboot/factory cable. The fastboot/factory cable is not the cable that came with your Kindle Fire!!! For more information about the factory cable visit this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1392693

Also you should set up all drivers and the Android SDK.

You can find the right drivers here!

Your device is not turning on? No sign of life? Then check this thread for hard bricked KF2s': http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2415870

Steps:

1.)Hold the power button for 20 sec. Your device will shut down

2.)Plug in your Fastboot cable and power on the device. Your Kindle should now be in fastboot mode (a green light should blinking)

3.)Download the Bootloader file: otter2-u-boot-prod-10.2.4.bin

md5sum: 5b03a7b428325de8d360ec201a745498

4.)Copy the file in to the same directory where the fastboot.exe is located

5.)Open a CMD window, navigate to your fastboot directory and type:

##############################################################

fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader otter2-u-boot-prod-10.2.4.bin

##############################################################

6.)Disconnect the device and hold the power button for 20 sec again.

7.)Your device should now be working fine.

Support Me:

If I helped you please press the thanks button and rate this thread !

Thanks to [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] for providing the bootloader file.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] mindmajick:

[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] bjoswald:
I believe he meant the directory in which the fastboot application is located on your PC, which is typically your Android SDK folder / platform-tools.

attempting to do this i have not gotten a blinking green light. the screen stays red and i can't get my computer to recognize it again to do the fastboot cmd. what else should i try or do?
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
That means you either don't have a factory cable or the factory cable you made doesn't work. BTW, a "factory cable" is not a standard USB cable.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] snoogens79:
i have the cable that came with the kindle and a few other cables and it worked before this 10.4 update.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Once again, a "factory cable" is not a standard USB cable. When people say "factory cable", they are referring to a factory programming cable. If you don't know what it is, you don't have one.

I know i will sound stupid for asking this, but i need your help.

Is your version of fastboot the same as mine? And how will i know when it is done or when to disconnect. thank you!

Thank you, now my kindle in Fastboot is recognized by the PC as a Kindle fire.

I typed CMD and then fastboot-i 0x1949 flash bootloader otter2-u-boot-prod-10.2.4.bin but I received an answer: fastboot-i not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I do not understand where I'm wrong ....

There must be a space between fastboot and -i

So the comand is:

Fastboot -i

Ugh... damn... so flying a kite early this morning with someone I adore... kite starts to nosedive straight towards some power lines...

I take off running, y'know, to bring it back up... Amaze slips from holster and lands face first, back cover flying off..

I've dropped the damn thing so many times, I wasn't even concerned.. I even let it sit there as I flew for a minute.. Pick it up.. screen is completely shattered!

Word of warning to you guys: Cancel your insurance on this device! Asurion is USELESS and a bunch of crooks! They *refused* to offer me anything but a Galaxy S as a replacement. No HTC One, No Galaxy S2, no galaxy relay.

A Galaxy S. For $130 deductible, no less. A phone I buy anywhere on swappa for $100, for $130 deductible! Outraged. I spoke to every manager, every person possible... and it ended with me on the phone with T-Mobile retentions ready to cancel. Luckily, the nice guy managed to get me a pretty hefty discount on the down payment on an HTC One... and with such spectacular reviews and such a beautiful device, I really couldn't resist. But I basically have been paying the insurance fee for NOTHING... crooks I tell you. Galaxy S?? Seriously?

Anyways.

[HTC Amaze 4G] vmartinez39:
Holy crap Asurion doesn't even replace the Amaze 4G?

I was hoping to do a warranty replacement on an Amaze I bought off CL. I mean its the Front Camera has dust and the speaker has a weird static with volume high.

I was hoping to replace it but if they won't replace the Amaze, kinda bums me out.

Good to know dude. Enjoy the HTC One. Want that device. But I've bought way too many devices this year... I'm so bad at that.
[HTC Amaze 4G] View92612:
I don't know anything that can be done about the speaker since I don't have the problem. But I was able to get HTC to do a warranty repair on the front camera dust. It cost me about $10 for USPS shipping and insurance. The only other way to fix it is to disassemble the phone and clean it up on your own---which may not be much cheaper as you need to buy the tools and would be riskier.

Hello Everyone!!!!

As the title states I am trying to build my first ROM from source, I am wanting to build a PAC-Man variant for our phone (AT&T S4).

I am currently installing Xubuntu 13.04 x64 on a old Pentium D (2.4 ghz with 2GB of RAM) and I am reading over this post while it is installing.

I am also reading over this thread as well. I assume I can try to build a CM 10.1 build first, LOKI it, then get it working then add the stuff in for PAC-man after that, but I am not sure. I was wanting to know if any ROM developers can point me in the right direction for learning how to compile ROM's from source. I know the typical rule here is to search, search, and if lost SEARCH MORE but I feel that I am missing knowledge on what to search for in the first place.

I hope to spend the next few days on this little project and if all works well I will attempt to maintain a Dev thread with updates every few days to a week.

As of last night I had my KFHD7 setup just the way I wanted with root, Kinology and my customizing 99% done. Well, I decided to get cute and mess around with how the status bar looked and <wham>, I lost my entire user interface. I ended up flashing stock 7.3.1 back on using TWRP and all looked well because I still had the root and could just put Kinology right back on. I wasn't aware there was an update of 7.4.1 available, which Amazon snuck in my device immediately <thanks?>. So now I'm back to a plain ol' out of the box KFHD7 without root, TWRP and running 7.4.1 stock rom.

You didn't follow the guide correctly. If you at least did something right, you should've put freedom-boot in the boot partition, and TWRP in the recovery partition. That has to be flashed at the same time, and reboot into recovery. Custom ROMs are flashed afterward, not in FireFlash. What you're stuck at is the stock recovery.
