I'm not sure what exactly feature are missing. But the one I installed does not have launcher.

I thought 4.4 should be look like the review here.

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/11/android-4-4-kitkat-thoroughly-reviewed/

see the screenshot of home page. no launcher. the apps shown are here separately installed, not from the ROM.

The left button show in the home screen is an android robot, suppose to be phone button. when I click on it. it says 'app isn't installed'. how can I retrieve phone function?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
Not meaning offense, but you don't even know how to drag the Phone app out of the app drawer and replace the one on the dock? Then you should give up all your effort trying to mimic Nexus 5 looks and revert to a more stable ROM. Your knowledge of Android 4.x (or at least the launcher) is still lacking.

yes, I got the phone part to work. now, where can I find the launcher ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ILA:
Like I said, that all is the launcher... Just search for "Google experience" launcher (not on the market ofc.) and if you don't want that launcher you can mimic the gradient status bar and navigation bar with an instruction that can be found here on the GN forum ;)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GramKrackr:
Hey Guys I have a Verizon S4 I am attempting to help a friend with he completely bricked it. Now only accessible option is ODIN Mode. I have tried 4 different versions of ODIN and 6 different tar files including the full wipe and everytime ODIN fails. I'm completely lost I personally have a L720 Sprint S4 and things are a little different but I cannot figure out anything to get this phone booted.

This is all I see.

ODIN Mode

Product Name: SCH-I545

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Custom

Knox Kernel Lock: 0x0

Knox Warranty VOID: 0x0

CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30

Write Protection: ENABLE

Okay so Im assuming this phone either had the OTA Update and is on a Knox Bootloader. Like I said I don't care how I have to go about getting this phone booted any suggestions would help. I have bricked my L720 before and never had problems like this.

Thanks in Advance.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] th3bl3d:
are you trying to load stock ME7 on the device? if so and the device had a different version on it such as MJ7 you cannot go backwards and the odin flash will fail, try flashing stock MJ7 on the device and see if that helps :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
If I'm not mistaken, the "Knox Warranty Void" flag showed up in MJ7, so you need to flash MJ7. Your log shows you flashing ME7, which is not going to work. The bootloader will not allow you to downgrade.

No-wipe and full-wipe images for MJ7 are available in the Android Development forum.

Does anyone have a custom rom for Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 (Model: SPH-L720) stock 4.2.2, that completely and safely removes all bloatware except stock tools such as video, s memo, clock, stock browser, calender, YouTube, calculator, Gmail, etc. using Odin to flash it? I am currently unrooted and can root my phone with CF root on Odin when I get home if needed. Hoping someone kind could share a link to get this rom and how to install it?

Root your phone and use titanium backup to delete all the bloatware you want :)

Edit,, just make a back up before you start deleting all kinds of stuff unless you don't mind having to Odin back to stock

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Xelphos:
Personally I would say the Note 3, I am getting mine this weekend. If you really use your phone for videos and gaming and just overall alot of screen time and like big phones/screens, then get the Note 3. If you don't use your phone for other then maybe a few games or apps here and there and don't like big phones/screens get the Nexus 5. The Nexus 5 is a good phone, but all in all it isn't really a multimedia phone in my opinion. Though so might say otherwise.

The Nexus phones are really meant for developers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_Dev_Phone
[Galaxy Note 3 General] nakedtime:
it should come down to cost and potentially hand size.

The note 3 is slightly better, but significantly more expensive.

If cost is a factor or if you have girl hands, go N5. If cost isn't a factor and/or you have man hands, go note 3.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
As a woman, I object to that. :rolleyes:

Anything over 4" is too big to hold as a woman, so what does it matter if it is 5 or 5.7"? (Put that thing back in your pants lads, your phallus does not have a screen, let alone the ability to multitask.)

I wouldn't go back to a smaller phone if they paid me for it. No way.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Griggs2121:
I think you probably posted in the wrong forum to get an honest opinion. :p

I've been contemplating this too. Price is a factor. I also like the clean look vs the mess of status bar icons. Although it looks like I can address that through themes etc. The biggest things for me is the bigger screen and battery. I may go back to a Nexus device sometime, but for now I decided on the Note 3

They do have the same processor.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] FlamingGoat:
No comparison, the Note has sd card and changeable battery. Those are absolutely essential for me so the nexus doesn't even bear consideration.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] killa12222:
Agreed. Those were my factors plus the multi window capability.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] arttuv:
I have a Note 3 even though I was going to get a Nexus to receive the updates sooner. When they released the Nexus 5 I feared I would regret buying the Note, but no. I love this device and I don't think Nexus 5 offers a lot more compared to this, and it doesn't have spen. But keep in mind I wanted a big phone to replace a tablet too, so if you want something smaller and don't nees the spen, Nexus is an excellent choice for the price.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BlueChris:
Sure it's cheaper and that's why it lacks the 40% of the things that N3 has.

I repeat you cannot compare 2 devices that are in 2 different categories with the biggest different imo the pen. Only phones with pen can be compared. Academically speaking nexus is great device for its price really but honestly if you go for N3 and used to the pen abilities there is no going back. I haven't touched with fingers except some zoom in/out since day 1.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dr.m0x:
Absolutely but the op hasn't really been clear about what they want from a phone so I stated the only logical reason to choose the Nexus 5 - price.

Sent from my beastly Note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dnsp:
Go Nexus if you don't care about its poor battery life. At least you will be free of this Knox and locked bootloaders crap. It's also way cheaper and you will have way more roms and customizations available.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] encho:
Congratulations on your first post :) I was in the same situation, whether to wait for Nexus 5 (still own Nexus 4) or buy this beast. And as you said it, I never regreted it, absolutely beatifull peace of hardware. And surprisingly, love the amoled and its deep blacks. I am back on Samsung after years of HTC/Google phones. Still need to get used to S-Pen, barely ever using it, but the phone is excellent even without it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] chipxtreme:
Got a Nexus 5, loved it but had issues with my 3UK home signal box so got a Note 3. Personally I prefer the Nexus 5 as its much easier to handle. Nexus I can use with one hand but when I do the same with the Note 3 I feel like i'm going to drop it. Both are amazing phones but to me 5" is the sweet spot for the mobile phone screen size.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] heavylift:
So.. you compare specs.. whats the point ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] CEO_of_Samsung:
What a terrible biased "review" of both devices.

* You buy a Samsung Note series device for the S-Pen first, and whatever they throw in including the kitchen sink is icing on the cake

* You buy the Note 3 for the expandable memory and the removable battery! In which case you can add on a 2nd oem battery or use a plethora of external higher capacity batteries that are available

* what about the triple mic's on the note 3? The adaptive sound dsp?

* How easy to not mention about multi-window use on the note 3, the killer slow motion with 1/4, 1/3, 1/2 speed adjustments, the browse while you stream video window ability with the stock video player, the adjustable AMOLED color profiles, bluetooth 4.0LE, advanced modes, the wifi-direct modes

* what about the screen writing which works amazingly well? The s-Pen command mode with scrapbook, screen write, and the pressure sensitive screen???!!

* Don't forget the sensors on the note 3: Accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer, temperature, humidity, gesture

* how good the camera really is and no camera focus lag like on a nexus 5

* even if you guys don't like touchwiz, a simple launcher can fix that. But the bulk of the phone is made even better by samsung, really.

* and best of all it works on Verizon's network. Supports simultaneous LTE data and CDMA voice.

The pros on the nexus 5:

* price <---

* OIS in camera but what's the point when the extremely laggy focusing is in play

* IPS screen with ultra pixel density; at least no worries like SAMOLED screen burn

Those are about the 3 pro's going for the nexus in my book. I don't want stock android for it does NOTHING! Samsung threw in all the whiz bang features and if you don't like the features turn them off. At least you have that feature to turn off vs. a stock android which has nothing! I find it interesting the so called hard core android user choose nexus because they choose to have stock everything on the phone no extras. But what is the point of owning a smartphone in which you don't have any fancy features? Why not just get a regular dumb phone and call it a day.

And the article states you rarely change batteries - what a joke - because when my battery gets near 30% which is about 1day to 1.5days/2days time, I just swap it out in less than 40 seconds with a fresh one waiting in the charger. I use a 64GB Samsung mSD card now to hold all the 4K videos and 60fps 1080p videos and also the mic on the note 3 is extremely good! You can even zoom in the mic!

You shouldn't even compare the note 3 to the nexus 5 because the note 3 really is a fantastic phablet. The nexus 5 is a good phone for the price but again, if you want stock android that does nothing, go for it!

Had both - started with the Note 3,sold it for the nexus 5, sold the nexus 5...and there I am, back with a black Note 3 ;)

The nexus is a BEAUTY! I love the design, the handling, the screen...I love the speed, the back of the device, the simplicity.

BUT:

I just can't go with a SP on which i can't rely on in terms of battery life. Not a great step forward from the nexus 4 - i am more a heavy user. And folks : if i have to turn off Google now just to be able to get through the day, there is seriously sth wrong. I want to be "power independent" and that is simply impossible with the nexus. And still the camera is kind of bad.

No, the Note wins in all terms. (at least for me)

It seems like Hangout uses the actual phone number from the carrier to send and receive SMS even though it was my Google Voice number that was confirmed after the update. I have tried sending SMS from Hangout but my friend did not receive it on the other end.

I had AT&T blocked all text messages since switching to Google Voice when they told me that they would only offer unlimited text message plan. Yea, I was annoyed enough to go change my number on all my friend's contact list. SMS from AT&T itself isn't blocked and those are the ones that show up in Hangout.

Hi,

Is there any possible way to get pictures off of the phone when in this state?

- Normal startup gets stuck at Google logo

- Running TWRP or CWM recovery cannot mount any folders (/system, /data, /cache, etc.), cannot backup any folders, cannot wipe cache

- also see this error mounting /dev/block/platform/omap when in recovery

Is there any possible way to get the pictures off of this phone?

Phone got to this state after a crash. Could not power down so did a battery pull, reinserted battery, and powered on and has been getting stuck at Google logo ever since.

Phone is stock 4.3 unlocked using Nexus Root Toolkit.

On a side note at the exact same time the battery no longer charges, phone no longer powers up with battery alone, to power up I need to remove battery, connect to a compupter using usb, then replace battery. Then can power up phone normally or enter fastboot.

Thanks.

Open a command prompt and navigate to the directory where you unzipped it

Make sure fastboot is in your path, if not copy it to the folder where you unzipped the factory image

Reboot to the bootloader

at the command prompt run flash-all

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benso37:
I have this 8GB Nexus 4 I purchased when it was first released as a gift for someone. Anyway, when 4.3 was released the person I gifted the phone took the update and after that the screen was stuck on the X screen for about 12 hour. He finally unplugged the power and waited for the battery to drain.

The phone isn't rooted, doesn't have a custom recovery on it. It's basically a stock device.

I have the phone now and this is what I've done so far. As soon as I received the phone, I went into the recovery and cleared both cache and reset the device to default. It still didn't boot (stuck on X screen). Then I used fastboot to clear everything and reinstall the factory image for 4.3. it still wouldn't boot. I then used fastboot to flash the radio from 4.2's factory image and it booted to the main screen.

I don't know why the phone won't boot with the radio bundled with the factory image for 4.3. I waited until 4.4 became available (today) thinking that would solve my problem. No, it didn't. The phone is stuck on the new multi color (4 dots) boot screen after flashing 4.4.

Can anyone help me figure out how to get the proper radio on this phone? I don't know what else to try.
