[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Heatshiver:
I would suggest buying and download Titanium Backup, an EXTREMELY useful app for more than just what you are asking for. With this app you can move them as easy as this! There are also several free apps that should do just what you are asking: AppMgr III, App2SD, Apps 2 SD. If you use any of those, be sure to read their instructions as the first of those three requires the SGS4 to be updated to the latest ROM first (which I don't think you want to do).

Here is a list of bloatware you can delete to free up some space. Some may take up next-to-nothing, but others may be taking up quite-a-bit. Notice that they are using Titanium Backup to make a backup first, just in case you delete something you wanted to keep or need.

You can also find ROMs like AOSP ROMs, which should help in recovering a lot of that space. But be sure to research, there are always things to take note of (i.e. many people believe the TW ROM has a better quality camera than the AOSP ROMs).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kr0th:
Thanks for the advice! I downloaded app2sd and it says my phone is not supported. Additionally, with the flashing of the CM10.1.3RC2, I deleted all bloat ware, but still only have 9gb available.

When I follow the directions regarding moving to sd from titanium, when I clock backup/restore, no apps show up. I am using the pro version (the free version, not the pay-for version), could that be the issue?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gimpy1:
I use "folder mount" as a way to move folders from my device to my sd card. I bought the app.

I'm not real sure if tibu can move them. But, to find out, go into preferences, scroll down to backup folder location and click on it. See where it has your back ups going to. If it is not to your external sd card, see if you can create a path to it. I'm not sure if it will or not, but look at it and see. Other than those two suggestions, I guess you can take the ota update as that is supposed to let you move things to the sd card, I think.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Heatshiver:
I believe you need the paid version to do most of the useful things on Titanium Backup, I was never ever to accomplish anything with the free version.

You could try gimpy's suggestion of Folder Mount.

Nandroid Manager may let you do something in their free version, not sure though.

You can also try this method, but this will just make sure everything from then on will go onto your SD card (which will act like internal memory).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
RootExplorer is free and you can move and rename any folder. I would use this over folder mount just in my opinion. Easy to find your apps and move them right to your extsd card. But there are a ton of options. And for what your talking about on Titanium you have to have the pro version free doesn't let you.

I have been having a major problem with TuneIn constantly buffering on WiFi.

WiFi speeds are good on Speedtest app, about 30 Mbps up and down, and 8-12ms ping.

I currently have a Droid DNA through Verizon and would like to switch to Straight Talk. I see options for both AT&T and T-Mobile compatible SIM cards, and am curious which one I should go with. I live in the Houston area. I prefer not to have to cut the card but it's not a deal breaker.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
In my area AT&T has much wider and more reliable data coverage. I was often on edge everywhere in my hometown while on T-Mobile. This may not be the case for Houston. Just test drive both networks for a month each.
[HTC Droid DNA] impala454:
Ah, excellent point. Should be cheap enough to try them both. Thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] kutster:
I actually work in Electronics at Walmart and deal with this all the time. Straight Talk will not move 4G LTE phones to their service. They aren't compatible and do not have the agreements with carriers for LTE access. If you read the CDMA/GSM bring your own phone package that includes the SIM cards it says in bold writing LTE Phones are not compatible. The DNA would not be able to be used on Straight Talk because it is a LTE phone. Straight Talk has a list of approved devices on their website. Because you do have to provide your phones IMEI they will know it is a LTE phone and deny your request to activate the phone on their services.
[HTC Droid DNA] impala454:
Kutster, I hate to correct you but I actually did successfully connect my Droid DNA using the Walmart SIM card. Now in my area it was actually called FamilyMobile, and run by T-Mobile. I purchased a SIM card from Walmart, took it home, plugged it in, set up an account, and it worked. Granted, you don't get LTE, but it does work and is mega cheap ($40/mo unlimited). I ended up cancelling and taking it back, simply because the internet was very slow, and the coverage wasn't very good in my area (T-Mobile sucks in my area). I do want to stress though that it definitely does work! I think I'll try AT&T GoPhone next.

The important thing to remember is this phone (the DNA) has all the radios necessary to connect to just about anybody but Sprint's network. Don't always believe what the companies tell ya.
[HTC Droid DNA] kutster:
See that's where your terms and confusion of prepaid comes into play. Of course Family Mobile worked they don't have restrictions on LTE especially since Family Mobile is powered by T-mobile.

Straight Talk

which is the company I was referring to and the company you were referring to does has limitations on LTE phones, and will NOT allow any LTE phone to to brought to their service. This has to do with they license the use of multiple carriers towers.

Trust me I am not trying to be rude, but I honestly deal with this on a daily basis. You know how many Straight Talk bring your own phone kits I have had to refund because customers buy them for their nice Verizon LTE smartphones? It doesn't work. I am telling you from my experience and my countless hours on the phone with Straight Talk reps and on their website, what their policy is on LTE phones. I beg you to go to Walmart and look at the Straight Talk CDMA/GSM BYOP (Bring Your Own Phone) kits that they sell for $60. In the middle of that package on the front it says something along the lines of "LTE Phones are not Compatible." Which like it reads means you cannot bring over a LTE phone to Straight Talk.

AT&T prepaid I would venture to guess would work, but I can't remember if AT&T is as picky as Verizon is about what smartphones get put on their prepaid plans. You would have to call and find out.

So once again, please keep in mind that every prepaid carrier is different, use different towers, and different policies. Just because it worked on one does not mean a different company has policies that differ or block that same practice.
[HTC Droid DNA] impala454:
I didn't realize StraightTalk and FamilyMobile were different. I just assumed that when I went to Walmart it was whatever they were using. I see now that StraightTalk is AT&T and FamilyMobile is T-Mobile. I only had the option for FamilyMobile at my Walmart. Thanks for the clarification.

I'm not going to disagree, but I will say that the FamilyMobile website also said my specific phone was not eligible, but it did in fact work. So to anyone else reading this, YMMV. Considering Walmart takes the card back for a full refund, I don't see a problem in at least attempting it (except that employees such as yourself have to deal with it ;) ). It makes sense to me that there's no way for the carrier to enforce specific phones when they are SIM card based. So long as your phone has the radios that carrier operates on, it should work. My guess is that the LTE phones statement on the package is in reference to the fact that you won't get LTE speeds with that network.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Being an an LTE device wouldn't matter in this case since the LTE radio will only work on the CDMA side of the phone and with Verizon's LTE. It has UMTS and Straight Talk already confirmed with me the phone would get 3G while on their network. There's not a magic way of them detecting an LTE phone ( one that works on a CDMA carrier mind you) and flipping the off switch. The 2G and 3G networks are available for AT&T and T-Mobile regardless of which prepaid carrier you use.
[HTC Droid DNA] kutster:
Im not going to argue about it. When you go to activate a BYOP on Straight Talk you have to input the IMEI, which does tell Straight Talk if the phone is LTE capable or not and if it isn't eligible it will not allow you to activate the phone. Period. I hate done it and tried it. It isn't like ATT where you put in the SIM card and it is activated. You activate the phone IMEI and SIM card # with Straight Talk. That is how it works with BYOP.

[MENTION=818978]Impala[/MENTION] Im glad you had luck getting Family Mobile working.
[HTC Droid DNA] holyinstantrice:
Uh, I'm currently using Straight Talk on my DNA with full HSPA+ capability, as are many others.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Exactly, ours is an LTE device so please tell us why it certainly does work on Straight Talk when you claim it doesn't.
[HTC Droid DNA] times_infinity:
Also, Straight Talk just got support for AT&T LTE. So they're going to have to accept LTE devices?
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Yeah I just read up on that. I wonder if the DNA 700mhz band will work. I checked online and it shows AT&T as using the 700 bands as well (a,b,c) I'm assuming the new Sim they are selling enables the LTE?

Can anyone with the new Sim confirm LTE connectivity?

EDIT : looks like at&t is band 17 and Verizon is 13. The FCC is pushing for interoperability within the upper 700 but it looks as if the chipset controls which band LTE operates off of...damn. It would be sweet to get LTE on an unlimited prepaid plan.
[HTC Droid DNA] impala454:
Interesting. I wonder if GoPhone or anyone else that's AT&T related would work LTE wise?
[HTC Droid DNA] ac7822:
So are you guys able to use gsm networks with the 2.06 firmware?

I'm using net10 (att) with my DNA with 2.04 firmware and I'm hesitant to update to 2.06 until I can confirm that the 2.06 update keeps gsm completely unlocked?
[HTC Droid DNA] tdizzle404:
I'm on 2.06 using a straight talk sim I can't get LTE speeds or even my signal to say LTE but I get H+ and max out at about 8mbps
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Me too. Straight Talk claims LTE works for unlocked AT&T smartphones.
[HTC Droid DNA] b_hermon:
Hey everyone, I'm totally new to Straight Talk and GSM and the DNA being used somewhere besides Verizon. (I'm a long time VZ customer but read Android Police daily and am familiar with all things Android.) Anyways, I'm pretty clear on using the phone on Straight Talk, getting MMS and all that, my only question is, how do you go about getting OTA's? Since the phone technically is a Verizon phone, updates would come from them. While on Straight Talk can I throw a Verizon sim card in the phone, download the OTA. Then after completing the update, put back in my AT&T sim card. Or does HTC offer OTA downloads online?

How do you guys go about updating your phone? (OTA's obviously apply to non-rooted devices. I may or may not root it.)

Thanks for your help!

I just s-off my phone using moonshine and then there are some bone stock roms to flash. Apart from that I'm not sure, before soff I was looking for an ruu to flash but couldn't find an updated one
[HTC Droid DNA] b_hermon:
Thanks ac! That sounds like something I could do. I'm not too familiar with s-off, moonshine or HTC (the phone is my wife's. I'm a nexus guy) but I may have to look into that. Anybody else out there with any ideas?
[HTC Droid DNA] b_hermon:
*EDIT*

After thinking about it some more, I think I may have gotten the answer. Since you're using a GSM SIM card in the phone and treating as a GSM unlocked phone, you don't need to worry about the MEID. Right? Just put in the SIM and you're up and running. At the very least, put it in another phone, activate it, then swap it into the DNA. Or do you not even need to do that? But using it on VZ through ST isn't possible though.

Another question for you guys. How did you activate your DNA's on ST? I went to their phone information page and it told me "The MEID/Serial Number you entered is not recognized as a compatible phone for the purpose of this Registration process." That seems to confirm the whole "we won't allow 4g CDMA phones on our network" But I've read enough instances where I know people have done it. I know with GSM BYOP phones you need to connect it to a particular SIM card but with CDMA, since they don't use SIM Cards (for 3g usage), you just register the MEID number. So how'd you guys do it? Get your service on a different CDMA phone then just transfer service to the DNA? Thanks in advance for the help!

Has anyone tried using the DNA on StraightTalk - Verizon rather than Straight Talk - AT&T or Straight Talk - TMobile?
[HTC Droid DNA] enigma2446:
Seeing that Verizon uses lte sim cards to access there LTE frequencys you would need a Verizon sim card from straight talk(not offered yet). They probably will in the near future but running the dna on there 3g network seems a little pointless and the device would not work properly if a sim card isn't being used. So I'd say no it wouldn't work or would be pointless to do at the moment in till they roll out Verizon lte. Nevertheless theoretically you could buy a cheap Verizon prepaid phone or if u have one laying around and use it as a doner phone for its IMEI number and Flash it to the dna. Then try activating it.

Also on a other note I have used straight talk at&t sim card in the dna and worked great for hspda speeds.... The dna is sim unlocked btw and will work with the sim card for at&t my average data speeds were 6-8MB down and 1-3MB up..... ain't no lte speeds but way faster then 3g fast enough for me and is strong enough to handle almost anything... Examples..... Netflix, hotspot, YouTube, downloading music and all that good stuff but didn't do it often for the fact of possible throttling..... Personally in this world 90% of the time wifi is available so I'm always connected resulting I am my data hardly being touched.

Can anyone share their apn settings for straight talk using the AT&T card? Everything works on what I got plugged in except mms
[HTC Droid DNA] JD1990:
There seems to be one point of information you lack...the HTC Droid DNA is a factory global unlocked phone. It can be used on any network; LTE/CDMA or GSM/UMTS. Therefore, it CAN be used on the straight talk network. And just as a bit of information to anyone, 4G, 3G, 2G, etc...has nothing to do with signal type. All it stands for is what generation the signal is (i.e. version update Ex: Android 4.0). Plus just because you work in electronics at Walmart does not mean you know everything. Half the people at Walmart don't know anything and some refuse to. I know, I also worked in electronics at Walmart :victory: :p

Steps?

Can someone please tell me the steps I need to take to get a verizon dna working on the straight talk network? It seems like some people are having perfect success, but I can't seem to find the explaination of what needs to be done. I gather that I need to buy a att sim card kit from walmart for the phone, but is there anything else that needs to be done above and beyond following the instructions for the att kit? All help is appreciated.... thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
I have the Droid DNA so I had the same questions as you before I got it. Mainly I wanted to know the internet speed. Straight Talk sells SIM cards at WalMart and online. They are 7-$10. You can get either a T Mobile SIM or an AT&T SIM. Which network you choose to operate off of is a matter of preference usually indicated by the best signal reception and/or data speeds. AT&T in most areas I believe would be better but T Mobile is vastly expanding their coverage so you may want to test both. You can bring an AT&T LTE device for LTE speeds but Verizon LTE devices such as the DNA aren't LTE supported since they use a different frequency band. The DNA does however support HSDPA or HSPA+ AKA 3G+. The speeds range from about 2-8Mbps and 14Mbps is the max capability for GSM high speed data. Since the DNA and many other devices are Global phones, they come factory unlocked, meaning they can be used on any GSM carrier. The SIM is inserted and you configure your APN setting in the android settings menu and you are up and running. So to answer your question, no special preparation is needed, just the phone and the SIM is all you need to activate service and/or transfer your number. The kit explains everything as well.

All of them seems to be with the Cortex A9 Rk3188 Quad Core CPU ,Quad Core Mali 400 GPU and 2GB DDR3 RAM, so I see no reason for the competely diffferent prices. Is there is something I am missing, if not I think the MK908 would be the best chose.
