[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacGuru:
The whole point of my second post was that there are alternatives - to roms, to mods, to apps, to hardware limitations. The availability of these alternatives is amongst the prime reasons we love android, you and I.

The Op is not asking us about Softbricks/bootlooping devices, or black screens. He is asking only about apps. As I said before, I haven't yet seen a comment from someone who wants to unroot his device just because a particular app does not work. It might be possible that with your experience you might have seen one or two, but as you mention yourselves, people sometimes tend to be stupid.

It's unfortunate that I sounded touchy to you. My only answer to the Op still remains that it would be highly unlikely for him to have trouble with apps, even though there could be apps which do not work on modded phones (as I did mention in my very first comment). Somehow your answer seemed pretty similar to mine ('just about everything would be fine'), so I just wondered why you had to mention to me problems with apps like the google wallet which are easily fixed.

By now, I am sure both of us understand what the other is talking about. Also, the op has enough info to take a decision on his own. My only qualm is that the inclusion of some seemingly complex terminology might turn him off rooting his device :)

Sent from my GT-N7100 or the Nexus 10, heaven knows.

Those who help noobs go to heaven. True story.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidBois:
Wow... I just love you guys so much... So much detailed analysis here..

I've rooted all my devices in the past and generally not had any issues if I use a mature solid tool and ROM, I've only had issues with more 'pioneering' ROM's and tools, but for good reason. So I try to stick to the stable well tested mature varieties like Cyanogen and well supported tools, generally where the developer gets some payment (as reward encourages good development).

I'm more concerned with anything like content apps so Google Books / Magazines / Movies / Zinio etc or any other apps that may kick a stink about running on a rooted device?

Spotify seems fine on a rooted device so far though (Nexus 4).

It may not be an issue for some, but I am one of the (possibly rare?) people who PAY for content - specifically reading material. And I have an extensive library so I don't want to lose that.

I'm not so concerned on the technical front as the Nexus should be fairly well community supported and understood mainstream devices and likely to have stable development and mature community support.

I have the mskip tool ready to go so I'm fine with that.

It's not a debate about rooting vs not. I always root because simple things like having a quick tile for WLAN AP can make a HUGE difference through the day as opposed to this retarded idea that people ENJOY diving deep through menu layers for simple on / off functions - it drives me completely and utterly insane over the course of a day. So I like to set up and streamline my device how I need it, and even have accurate time with root tools like ClockSync, or better security support to lock out spyware crap like FaceSpy and so on (if root helps) and also, being able to properly back up my phone.

Or employer mandated junk like Afaria that some companies mandate for BYOD-to-work devices, not that I have any idea what it's for as opposed to a trusted workable solution like Google Apps (I guess everyone has to make their own thing to put their own buggy bloated stamp on everything). Will that mandated junk still work?

The biggest problem I have still is this MTP *CRAP* which which I believe you can't work around? That's another story and Google should be shot for this.

But root vs not has little to do with that. I guess we're stuck with this MTP crap no matter what we do (thanks Google, you tools).

Thanks for the advice here though.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I've not had any problems with Google Play services and root, although most of my books are sideloaded after ripping DRM off of Amazon purchases (I don't really believe in the idea of a "perpetual lease"). As someone who has spent time working on that "employer junk" for corporate use, it may annoy the living **** out of you as a rooted user, but from a corporate standpoint it's actually pretty damn important.

Now, as far as MTP goes, don't quote me on this, but I remember seeing a setting in DriveDroid a while back (it's an app that lets you mount an ISO on your computer by connecting your device) that would let you change your USB connection mode to something other than MTP/PTP. I dont' remember the acronym, unfortunately, but it was a lot more in line with the way a "standard" USB device would connect (with the attendant issues of not using FUSE).
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] myshkin:
I'm happily using my PDA2K on multiple networks on GPRS.

I've just been given a SIM which has permission to use 2 different APNs on the same network.The phone company says they are identical in terms of user name, password, etc requirements.

I can happily log onto one APN. logging onto the other comes up with the "modem has disconnected" message, though the network support guy tells me I did get through initially.

Same message as you get if you don't have permission to use the APN, or set wrong username/password in the PDA.

I note that the PDA has nowhere to enter the *99# 0r *99***1# type string which other units have. Does anyone understand whether this, or anything else, could explain my difficulties?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capuagenclik:
I dont care about the 4g. My only concern in performance, overheating and application/customization support.

Which processor i should go for. Also I have heard Snapdragon 800 has a huge difference in terms of performance should i wait for that

I am not a heavy gamer(actually i mostly play 2D games) but smoothness in daily tasks and multitasking is really important for me in a smartphone.

Thanks for your answers.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexgore:
Wait 10 years for the i980000, I hear that's the one to get ;)

But seriously... just buy the phone you want now. If you always wait for the better phone you will be waiting forever, this technology moves fast, and the i9500 and i9505 are both very good phones.

If you want the most custom ROM support go for the i9505.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtoh:
Get one that meet your needs. Go try it out in stores or from friends. If current S4 / GF / Wife suit what u need, then grab / treasure it.

No ending to get the best faster phones / biggest boobs.. Be contented and u will always be happy!!:good:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capuagenclik:
but guys Snapdragon 600 and 800 difference is sooo huge. I am tempted to get my hands on the 800 instead of 600 :D and think will regret if I buy i9505 instead of waiting for couple of months for the 9506.

BTW how is the battery life and the heating issues going on? are they fully resolved.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AwsmStar:
By the time you've waited for the i9506, the i9507 might be out soon, and by the time that comes out the next flagships will only be a few months away. Its exactly the same with PC hardware, if you wait for a new release you pay more and by that time the new releases won't be far off.

If you want a phone now, the i9505 is an excellent phone, if you can wait then go for it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datalkingx:
Well if you wait for i9506 it means less battery life by increasing performance... And all the apps and the os itself just don't stop there when it comes to performance.

In the end a smartphone should just be capable of doing daily usages without any performance issues but it'd be seem unlikely a.t.m.

The lighter the better and bigger the screen the better while keeping dimensions to acceptable level.

I certainly think the technology is there and it'll add to the cost to produce in current terms.

Or they'd rather bring out something extra ordinary and affordable by everyone's budget.

That's something for thought.

One of the coolest feature of S4 would be the use of S Band

2nd: Here are links to download the stuff you want.. [1] [2] [3] Not sure if you would need this with the widget but here it is anyway. (Push the widget, task manager [if required] and gallery to /system/app and put correct permissions.

3rd: I need more info when you say start screen. Is it boot animation or lock screen? Boot animation is here. Lockscreen is preloaded in the 4th ROM link. Here's for CM10.

4th: ._. Digital Clock... really? You can't go on Play Store and find a widget? Try this anyway.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whosat:
