[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ph03nix:
Wow its been a long time since I've been here! I see all of you are still busy!

... so basically, I'm going to buy an S4, but I'm not sure WHICH I should buy ... and I'm not sure where I should put this question since all the models are spread all over the place, but since I'm in Canada I thought this place would be a good start :laugh:

So basically, from what I've seen, the AT&T (i337) model is quite limited in out-the-box bands, and also has a locked bootloader. From what I've come up with, digging through information about all the models and Canadian carriers, is that the two best models for use in Canada seem to be the I337M and the T-Mobile M919 ... I really wanted a Samsung branded phone, but it seems if I get the I9505 I'll be missing out on a whole bunch of radio bands ... from what I've seen however, the unlocked I337M has no branding on it though ...

So basically what I've come up with is that both the T-Mobile M919 and the Canadian I337M both have unlocked bootloaders ... and they all run on the same GSM freq.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here, but, it looks to me like both the M919 and the I337M also share the same LTE bands, which are LTE 700MHz (Band 17) / 850MHz (Band 5) / 1900MHz (Band 2) / 2100MHz (Band 1) / AWS (Band 4) / 2600MHz (Band 7)

(my sources are http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-M919ZKATMB-specs and http://www.pdaplaza.ca/products/Samsung-Galaxy-S4-SGH%2dI337M-16GB--Black-Mist,-Unlocked.html - I can't seem to find a reliable source for the LTE bands the I337M has ... on samsungs website it has a * Dependent on market and nobody seems to list straight up specs for the I337M ... actually it lists a completely different set of LTE bands which I'm pretty sure is wrong ... they list 1800 instead of 1700 and 800 instead of 700 which I know is incorrect for Rogers at least)

It looks to me, like the only real difference between the I337M and the M919 is that the M919 has a AWS (1700) 3G radio band, and the I337M has a 900mhz 3G radio band instead of the AWS band ... however, I ALSO have read that the AWS band on the I337M can be enabled (again, correct me if I'm wrong!)

If everything that I have read through is correct, it would seem to me like the I337M would be the 'ultimate' North American model, supporting more frequency bands than any other version (besides maybe the i9505 which lacks some bands I would probably need) ... unless its actually possible to somehow unlock all these bands on every version, and I just didn't get that deep into reading about hacking these phones yet ...

If I got something wrong here please let me know ... I would like to buy one soon and start flashing it :D

Thanks!

Lets put it an easy way, if I had the choice again, I would have not got the att galaxy s4 us version, I would have got the Canadian S4 i337m. My opinion only.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] hovax615@hotmail.com:
Or the Google Edition but its going to run you like 700-800$
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] custo:
If you're in Canada why not buy the i337m?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Jep4444:
My i337M is completely unbranded once I installed a custom ROM and I managed to enable the AWS. Unlocking it has been a different story though :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ph03nix:
Well ... I just want the phone that has the most bands (its not really a cheap phone!), I'd like to get as much as I can for my money. I honestly have no idea if all the North American models have the same radio hardware or not, but at least on Samsungs website, they list the I337 (AT&T) with many less bands than the T-Mobile M919.

Funny enough, on Rogers website it lists the I337M only having 2100/2600 as the LTE bands, but on Bell/Telus it lits the I337M as having 700MHz/ 850MHz/1900MHz/2100MHz/AWS/2600MHz

It seems silly to me to actually manufacture different radio hardware for all the different North American models ... considering they almost all use the same bands except some exclude some, and there is one different one (3G AWS on M919 vs 900Mhz 3G on I337M)

I wouldn't get the AT&T US version ... as far as I know nobody has been able to unlock the bootloader. But apparently the M919 isn't locked.

I considered the Google Edition, but as someone said, it will run 700-800 (and you can't 'officially' get it in Canada)

Anyways, I found an unlocked I337M and I believe it is also unbranded ... so I bought it. If its not, I'll just flash it :)

I still am curious as to what they actually do with the radios though ... if they actually use different hardware or just lock the bands in the firmware (I'll take a guess the international I9505 actually has different hardware, though)

I think it would cost Samsung more to design different radio hardware for all the different North American providers (considering they almost all run the same/lots of overlapping bands) than just putting firmware locks?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] MavereXx:
I337m has all the radio bands, handles the lowest CPU voltages while still being stable... has an unlocked bootloader, and simply kicks butt.

Simple modem firmware flash fixes any location specific, and in my case, non-existant radio band issue.

Did you ever seen this message on your PPC?

This problem appeared by itself.

Hard Reset doesn't take effect. No programs available on my device, while memory is not full.

( How it can be full after Hard Reset :-) ) Start > Programs - unavailable, but Start > Settings - works.

All programs don't open.

I tried to flash my device from original ROM to newest 1.72.00 WWE.

I did it, but it doesn't take effect.

I see the same message on the screen.

Of course my device works after Hard Reset, but when I make first Soft Reset or

Auto-reset, when installing program, this message appears again.

Now I don't know what to do. If someone confronted with this problem... help me please! :?

Maybe is your ROM Image that you are using damaged. Maybe... Try to use another one: 1.75 is the newest version of 2k3 or the best version for 2k3SE is v2.06(my recommendation). I know and I believe,that all problems can a hard-reset solve(well,the most problems) while is a good ROM Image installed.

[Shield General] Edwii:
I've ordered my shield, it should arrive on the 23rd.

While I wait I thought I would get some suggestions for things I may want to do before it arrives; download software, buy any accessories, etc.

My current PC wont be able to stream with out something like SplashTop. I'm building a new rig in the next few months but until then I have to rely on the shield's hardware till then.

Section 1: PC Prep.

*note: I have never used an android device before, but I'm a quick adapter.

1• Is there any software I should get installed on my PC now before it arrives?

2• Is there any shield rom files I should look into at this point?

Section 2: Android-ware

I am sure this has been discussed a lot already:

1• As a first time Android user, could i get some suggestions for some of the better:

1•2 Games for the shield.

1•3 General Apps.

2• I am a big nostalgia gamer, love just about any and all consoles/hand-helds I can emulate, I was wondering which are the best emulators out there so far?

*by that I mean the name of the best emulator per console, not just what systems it can emulate.

Section 3: Accessories

1• Would like to know if there are any "must have" accessories to get for the shield, be they specific for the shield or a general product, I'd like to know.

2• I saw the Nyko docking unit, and know it isn't available yet. I was wondering would one of those wireless charge pad things work? If so can you suggest a good one?

Thanks for any and all suggestions.
[Shield General] SixSixSevenSeven:
On the PC part of the beauty of android compared to iOS or windows phone is the fact that you need *no* software. Plug micro USB into shield, plug other end into PC. It might do the installing device driver screen as a formality but after that it will be listed as a device in my computer, you can open it and browser around the contents of the SD card and Shield storage. Great huh?

Just drag and drop your music into the relevant folders, I no longer have a working android device so I dont recall what the correct folder actually is, I think it might be sdcard/media/audio, although creating a new folder called Music in the root directory of either the external SD or the internal storage (extsd and sdcard respectively) and sticking it in there works. There are itunes plugins for those that prefer them, think there is a way for windows media player to sync libraries too.

ROMs I dont think there are any for the Shield yet, one is being worked on but for now if your new to android, ignore.

Plenty of android games out there. 2 casual games to get started, beach buggy blitz and Dead Trigger (both support hardware controls hence why I mention them, and they are free). But seriously, there are tons.

I cant live without ES File Explorer. Beyond that, I tend to get BBC news and steam, I steer well clear of the facebook app as that just annoys me (browser it) but do keep twitter. None of them particularly support the shield controls though.

There are lists online of like the 50 must have android apps and games etc. Take a look at them.

Emulator wise someone posted a list of their favourite emulators for the shield covering quite a large range of console. The Shield will emulate anything right upto PS1 and N64. Might do more powerful still, but that would require someone to make an emulator for that. Anything below PS1 or N64 it should be fine with. Retroarch is meant to be a good start. Some consoles you may require a bios file first (primarily PS1) which is copyrighted material so no one on XDA can tell you where to get it unfortunately.

The wireless charge mats require a device which supports wireless charging. The shield doesnt. No one makes a skin for the shield with a wireless charge coil yet either (they did for some other devices). Only android accessory that I get as a must have is a USB host cable. Awesome little tools, microUSB plug on one side and a USB socket on the other so you can plug mice and keyboards into your android device. Otherwise, just make sure you have a micro USB cable around, maybe some headphones and a microSD.
