I know the total price ia 579 I know that I bought a s4 on post paid I make eip payments, I was just quoting. .. that if its the amount of money that is needed down thats the concern, be aware that at worst its 329 down as the highest amount possible but yea with the 12.50 extra on top of bill theres also a possibility of a down payment needed for the line itself also, so if u ad the line deposit and the phone deposit it easily adds up well past 99$

So I was trying to help the OP know that its very possible without grade a/b credit plan to pay 200-500 for both deposits combined. ... before u even walk away with the phone on a new postpaid line...thus making the whole experience of the advertising 99 down a a complete let down once u actually get there and deal with it :D

---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 PM ----------

Taxes are mandatory paid once u pay the phone and line deposits.... they are put out of the way rite then and there..the remainder is the evem dollar amount eip Payments left on the phones total cost minus the taxes u just paid.

Costco has it for around $150 with a two year extension. They throw in some accessories too
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] me:
Yes, I think the best price is Costco, for $150, at least for the next couple of days.

However, they have the S3 for $0 (only pay taxes).

Is the S4 worth paying $150 more than the S3? Your opinion?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] abcdefg1234567:
Yes and no...

It depends on your dying need for a s4

Biggest diff is camera and home button feels nicer the built in gestures I don't even use that stuff.Speaker is was louder also.

something else to consider:

Costco and a few other vendors are the last to support subsidized upgrades on t-mobile. Noone knows how long this will remain true. Which phone would you rather hold on to if you decide to stick with t-mobile, but never again have a low-cost upgrade available?

I've had a tmo family plan for over 10 years (started with omnipoint) and had spaced my upgrades out so every 6 months there was a new phone in the mix. With the rotation, I was comfortable getting last year's hot handset for free instead of plunking for the new models. This year I'm upgrading them all to the latest and greatest as soon as they're qualified.

And to the OP: Costco $150 plus some accessories is the best deal i've been able to fine since the S4 launch. There may be some better deals come Independence Day,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mr Global:
How is Costco a deal? They are charging $149.99 for the phone, but they then charge you $90.00 a month instead of T-Mobile charging you $70.00 a month for the 2 years of the Costco contract.

$20.00 X 24 = $480.00

$480 + $149.99 = $629.99

This is the SAME as buying it from T-Mobile, but you are stuck with a 2 year contract from Costco.

They also through in a cheap case that you can get on Amazon for $4 or $5.00

Am I missing something here? Costco does NOT look like a good deal at all!

If I wasn't clear above, T-Mobile charges $70.00 a month for unlimited everything. Costco charges you $90.00 for the same plan.

Costco also honors your legacy plans which are no longer offered, which T-mobile will let you keep but still not subsidize your phone. Here's my bill:

Hi i am trying to do this part

my vzw s3 is stock and this is my first time trying to root and flash roms. so i downloaded the file in step 1 and put that zip file in my micro sd and enter recovery by hold vol up and home button and press the power button once in there i proceed to install file from external device (microsD) i run that file i downloaded in step 1 and i see green texts activity and after 3-4 lines of texts i see " E: Signature verification fail" in red texts and it continue to output 3-4 green texts after that and it auto reboot. i also want to make and go to my external sd to verify if anything wrriten in it and i dont see any new folder created..

anyone can help me? is this a problem or normal?

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
This entire process must be done AFTER you have rooted and unlocked. You'll need CWM or TWRP recovery in order to flash those Synergy zips.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tainle:
okay thanks for the help i will do that after roooted and unlocked bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tainle:
i need help with this part. first i cannot download the samsung drivers in that link, error 404. so i got go on with the steps without the samsung drivers and run the rootdebugfs at step 6 and agree to all dislaimer and it start to run commands on it own and in end command line it said "Failed...." for every lines so i dont know why and the phone did reboot twices and now i am stuck at this screen and not sure what it mean in the command prompt. it say " Testing superuser... /system/bin/sh: /system/xbin/su: not found uid and gid should both be 0. Are they? <y/n>

should the uid and gid be 0? and i get all the failed when running the rootdebug is because i dont have the samsung drivers? or i am doing something wrong? thanks for the assistant
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Well, you need to use Open1your1eyes0 thread to root/unlock.

As for DebugFSRoot, just read the top of its thread and you'll see where you went astray.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tainle:
i installed cwm 6.0.2.3 and in the recovery i cannot mount my sd, i believe that any sd 64gb+ class 10 will not work? and i have to use TWRP recovery? if so how do i install twrp recovery? just use odin and flash it and it will override the cwm recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Just use Odin. Or reformat the sdcard to Fat32 and lose ability to transfer >4gb files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tainle:
hey thanks for the help

I think you have become the noob helper. I gave up because it seemed like to many people was not reading and bricking. Never seen so many people bricking devices until the price of this phone went down.

Don't use any extension cable/usb hub

Disable firewall and antivirus

Uninstall kies and just install samsung usb driver (you get from my thread you are following)

Btw flashing my prerooted rom is exactly same with rooting with option one but even without raising counter.

But if you having problem that also fail flashing prerooted rom.

I heard of directory bind!! So i was planning to move the whole android folder which consists data and obb folders!! my doubt is that after i do all that and i install a new game or app, will the files automatically get transfer or do i need to bind those files agian??

Is der a better solution like directory bind??

Glad it worked
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
I don't recommend whole android folder as some files needed to run before directory bind and that will create error. Better share only folder having big data

Or use swap int ext memory

So today I bought a 32 GB sd card for my S4 and I'm pretty sure it's exFAT formatted. I've ordered another card, though, a 64 GB one from Sandisk (class 10 UHS-I) which I definitely know is exFAT formatted.

Question is: Will the exFAT file system be supported in aosp roms for the i9505? On aosp roms for the i9300, it was not, and the cards had to be formatted to e.g. FAT32 or ext4.

If at you as it is described above, phone is connected to PC and you can do with it that you wish.

And more.. For ADB sideload check your version TWRP must be 2.3 or higher and check adb version by "adb version", must be 1.0.29 or higher.
