which choice on white-list do i pick to block so tha my kindle fire HD will not download the kindle firmware update ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Div033:
I'm considering picking up a developer edition GS4 to replace my GS3 but I want to make sure I'm making this decision for the right reasons. Basically I'm looking for a near-perfect AOSP experience "where it counts". That means all primary functions working 95-100%. Does the GS4 have CM builds that fit this bill?

CM on the GS3 has a couple major unfixable issues that have me considering this in the first place:

- Very quiet camcorder recording volume. Didn't think it was a big deal til one of those rare moment experiences took place and I tried to capture it in video only to find the audio was barely audible.

- Flaky data connection in some regions. Being in certain areas would yield a poor 4G connection, often dropping to 3G. Flash back to TouchWiz and voila, strong and fast 4G in the same area.

There are a couple other issues which I don't consider to be primary functional issues like MHL not working and some Bluetooth weirdness (Google really needs to work on this) but those I'm less concerned about. I'm still curious about these things too though.

--

The GS4 seems to be the only device worthy upgrading to for my purposes. The Moto X was interesting but I kinda want a better CPU than what I have now... I'm a game emulator junkie and those push your CPU to the limit. LG G2 I'm more interested in but I really don't trust LG's software and I can't rely on the phone getting CM support or even unlocked for that matter. I highly doubt Verizon will ever see another Nexus device... GS4 DE seems to be the only choice.

Thanks for your time and I look forward to your responses :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] techben:
Before I got my phone replaced (and the new one got ME7 OTA), CM 10.1 was pretty stable for the last few weeks. It did have some bugs at first (with calling and Bluetooth), but those got fixed some time ago. Didn't have a chance to try the new 10.2, as I'm stuck with the ME7 bootloader = can't flash a custom recovery ;(

The AOSP camera was MUCH better than the TW one. The quality was absolutely astonishing on the AOSP.

As for MHL, didn't try it. I **think** that CM 10.1 even had a wireless display feature in the settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Div033:
I wouldn't put too much stock in CM10.2 at this point. It seems to be pretty buggy across all devices sans nexus. Regardless my research has yielded results similar to what you're explaining. It's just difficult to sift through the respective development and Q&A threads to try and find quality info. Lots of people report issues that others aren't having - something I see commonly (but don't experience on my device) in the GS3 threads as well.

Thanks for the info!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iLike-:
Hello guys,

i'm kind of desperate, because i really dont know where to search anymore, so i go ask now.

here are the sad facts:

i got a s4-clone, which should be hdc galaxy s4 lte with mt6589 processor. i bricked it (won't tell how, too retarded), do not have a recovery, but preloader still working. as i try to flash some random rom (as there are many for s4 clones with mt6589 ) using flash tool i always get the same error, telling me the rom is 6589 and target is 6572.

so the first guess is i got a different phone with mt6572 processor, but droidtools reads as follows:

Hardware : MT6589

i'm stuck at a very disappointing point, because i really dont know what to do anymore as there are no roms for mt6572 to try. does any of you professionals have a guess what to do now? (flash tool and droid tools are latest version)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterofdarker:
I think your phone is mt6572...

Yes, no roms result when google, seem too hard to find the rom...

Its many type s4 clone, i think you dont know your phone model, like me...

Maybe you need search in china forum or ask to russian dev...

Bricked MT6572

Hi there, I'm a new member to the forum, but have been browsing XDA for some time.

I too have an S4 clone which I bought from a Chinese retailer through Amazon, and have bricked mine through a comedy of errors!

I can't remember which app I used to get the following, but this is the read-out from my device:

Does this look similar to anything in your device?

The only thing I think will work to get the device working again would be to get hold of the stock ROM, however I can't find one anywhere which matches the chipset.

I've heard that using the Android Kitchen, it's possible to create a new ROM using a dump of the "/system" from a working device; apparently using Terminal Emulator on the device and type the following:

tar -c system/* >> sdcard/system.tar

Is that correct? If so, if anyone recognises the above specs on their own device, I would be really grateful for any help. Obviously being a new member I'm not expecting anyone to start sending me a dump of their "/system" (!) but any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance :D

Going back to the original post, in all of my 14-year-old wisdom at the time none of this stuff got uploaded anywhere persistent, so I'm going to have to see if I can dig up my old XP/Vista machine(s) and figure out if I can pull anything off of them.

I also switched from the iPhone to the S4 and have no regrets so far (besides installing MF3...)

I have a gargantuan music library, and Google's Music app handles it all incredibly well, and if you fell for paying for Apple's iTunes Match service, Google's paid music option does a much better job.

I use almost all of the stock apps with no problem, all I can do is second the previous poster's Go SMS suggestion, it's a very nice app.

My launcher of choice is Nova, but everyone has their own preference so make sure to check them all out.

Good luck with the switch!

If I click "software" update it will update me to MF3 which is bad!

If I went and Rooted this device now I will be able to freeze the OTAs.

Now what about when I go to flash to another rom? - Does this allow me to revert back to MDL? or if i wanted to go back to stock from lets say cyanogenmod i will have to go back to MF3?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
Yes to all your questions. Root and get a custom recovery on your device, freeze the upgrade apps, and make a nandroid of where you are right now. Then you can always go back to your mdl, stock, rooted system. Then have fun flashing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] unmexican:
Yes: You can root and flash ROMs to your device.

Yes: You will be able to freeze the OTAs after rooting.

I think you're confused with how the update works.

Your phone is currently on the AMDL update. If you flash a ROM to it, your phones firmware will not change, and you will still be on the AMDL update. The only thing that will put you onto MF3 is the downloading the OTA.

I highly recommend you read this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2301762&highlight=noob

It will help explain a lot of the terms commonly used with rooting, and help make things much less confusing.

I say you can't go wrong with either one. Samsung did an awesome job making the s4. It's the number 1 android phone available IMO. Also Samsung makes a case called the protective cover + for s4 and its an awesome case. They make it in different colors. Look for it on their website. I have it on my s4.
