[Xperia Z1 General] Rekoil:
I had the same issue remember, but that was obviously an engineering defect which the Z1 doesn't suffer from. I usually switch phones every 2 years or so (more frequently recently due to picking the wrong phones), and during those years I've never gotten to the stage where I thought I would benefit from replacing the battery with a new one. Also it is a fact that a removable battery requires more protection than a non-removable one, and thus suffers a loss in charge capacity vs volume, and I think manufacturers of phones tend to want to sell more batteries as well, and so they are less worried about battery longevity, preferring users to go and swap batteries after a year or two.

So it's bad for the environment (no, not as bad as switching phones when the battery starts to degrade, but still pretty bad if the batteries aren't taken care of properly), they typically hold a smaller charge than their non-removable counterparts, and there needs to be shielding behind the removable cover, also adding to the required volume of material, compared to using a non-removable battery. Is all that really worth the potential to change the battery yourself? I think for most regular users it isn't, though I understand why XDA users would like that functionality.

I've had a z and now have a z1, but tbh if the Samsung doesn't have Knox boot loader I might get. Otherwise no way.

I like not having to unlock boot loader to flash kernels, I like phase detection and faster aperture on the camera, removable battery, and 10hrs web browsing is amazing.

The only thing i love in samsung phones is transfering apps in sd card, that's all..
[Xperia Z1 General] jonmorris:
Had a play with the phone a bit more today, and bar the horrid rear design and colours, the phone is pretty good.

Mostly because it has less of the crappy S Apps from before and it isn't so in your face. The ultra battery save mode or whatever it's called is also quite clever. Not difficult to do, but great for people who might need max battery over all else, such as spending 12+ hours at a mobile conference before an evening of events and parties!

Definitely still the Z2 for me, but the GS5 isn't as terrible as I first thought.

[Galaxy S 5 General] Maduro78:
It doesn't look too much different than the s4, very disappointed. Everything else looks up to par but I was expecting something different. The s3 which was their best selling device, customers are due for an upgrade. IMO it was imperative for Samsung to push the envelope and correct some of the constant criticisms the s phones have received. They hit a home run with the s3, the s4's sales were dismal at best now was the time. Software and hardware look good but it seems the build quality will be questionable as usual. Touchwiz looks the same. I wonder how locked down this phone will be. Most likely I will be buying one as I did with all the previous models. The m8 might have to come first though.

I like new look, blue abd gold one looks nice, better than iPhone or Sony. I really like live hdr mode and fast auto focus. I want live hdr on my phone and this new ui it loojs nicer.

Water resistant is cool thing. But people remember its not waterproof dont swim with it, like lots of people with their S4Active, then they cried. Hope they improved usb flap port cover.

I laughed when they said that we customers want better KNOX, maybe when it wouldn't void our warranties when counter is triggered it would be ok. But I am disappointed that it has only 2gh RAM. With all that samsung stuff running in background sometime its not enough. And it would need better colling system.

[Galaxy S 5 General] Eric214:
No one has even noticed the bezel is bigger on the S5 over the S4. This makes the phone needlessly larger when the screen is hardly any bigger. I mean the battery is larger but only by 200mah. Not enough to make the phone THAT much larger.

---------- Post added at 06:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

Yeah I got the Note 3 just over a month ago and i SO made the right choice. The Note 3 is soundly superior to the S5 still except for the camera.

[Galaxy S 5 General] SwiftLeeO:
In my opinion, Samsung's Galaxys' main selling point is that almost everyone seems to have one, so you should too. My first Galaxy was an S4 so maybe I'm a bit biased but that phone was a piece of junk. Even rooting and flashing on it didn't feel the same as my other devices. If the Nexus 5 had a 3000 mah battery and a bigger camera, it would kick the S5's a**. That's not to say it doesn't already, but the battery could be better :P As far as design goes, I think the N5 matte black smooth finish is better than the sticky fingerprint plastic S4. I love the image a few posts ago comparing the gold S5 (gold?) to a bandaid. It is so true.

All in all, Samsung just needs to stop trying to be like Apple.

Apple has their own app store (and Samsung is trying to make their own even though they have a Play Store).

Apple has their own OS ( and Samsung makes Android look almost completely different from Stock Android... )

Apple only does minor updates to their device (mainly design... So does Samsung).

In summary, Samsung either needs to make it's own OS and sell that, or use stock android.
[Galaxy S 5 General] xeizo:
Well calling the S4 "a piece of junk" firmly makes all your other comments about smartphones in general pretty worthless :eek:
[Galaxy S 5 General] SwiftLeeO:
In terms of specs, it is not a piece of junk. I'm calling it a piece of junk based on customization level and because they just put way too much bloat on it that "ALMOST" noone is going to use. Sure you can buy the MDK bootloader version, or buy a developer edition, but it just seems a little bit far out. Then again I did get a Moto X DE, but that's because I sold my S4 and happened to have enough for it. So I guess it depends on how much money you have. The N5 has decent specs for the price. The S4 is a little bit better and costs 200 more. So I'm not trying to call the S4 a piece of junk entirely, but I am calling it a piece of junk in certain aspects. I would probably change my tune if the bootloader was unlocked on the S5, but it won't be, so I'm going to assume that the S5 is a piece of junk in certain aspects as well.

I'm not trying to keep people from buying it, I'm just throwing my view up here. If you want to buy it, go ahead. GS4 vs GS5, you might as well keep the GS4. If you don't like the GS4, then don't get the GS5. If you don't like TouchWiz, buy an N5. If you dont like performance... Then you'll have to wait because GS4 compared to N5 in performance... about the same. GS4 compared to N5 in customization ( that is assuming that most people do not have a dev edition or MDK )... GS4 = fail.
[Galaxy S 5 General] jamezr:
That is your opinion…….SD Card and removable battery = N5 = fail. Ability to buy accessories - N5 =fail. Camera -N5 = fail.

So just because a phone has a locked boot loader it is a junk? Then all phones are junk except the GPE phones or Nexus phones to you? Wow that is excluding a lot of very nice phones…….
[Galaxy S 5 General] SwiftLeeO:
I'm almost certain I stated it was my opinion in my first post Anyway I guess it depends on what you need. Case closed :)
[Galaxy S 5 General] wtherrell:
Also, IR blaster. I moved to GS4 dev edition from Nexus. SD card slot, removable battery, IR blaster are very much appreciated. Too much investment here in the GS4 to move to the 5. Looks like the Note 3 dev edition is getting good developer attention but seems a bit too big to me. Dunno. Lots of people saying the big size kinda grows on you after a short time.
[Galaxy S 5 General] xeizo:
I'm sure it does if you're a dev, or just an ordinary media consumer, great for media! BUT for us that still wishes to have our everyday smartphone with us on a fishing trip, the beach, a nightclub or whatever even the S5 is stretching it far according to sheer size. I want a really portable device in the first place, the S3 has been great in that respect and the S5 looks like a reasonable upgrade over it :good:

Hey guys I got a problem with the touchscreen of my nexus 4.

So, today I noticed that my phone is doing weird things, like open up the clock app and swiping between the homescreen by itself.

And I realized that there is a dead spot (or row) that is not working. It's like 1cm in the upper part of the screen. (I think it's similar to this problem)

Attached you can find some pictures of the test I made.

As you can see the lower part is working perfectly, but the upper part is not (I drew a solid line!)

Any one else got this problem? Do I have to return it? If so, where?

Edit: I did a bit of research and it seems to be something called the "ghost touch" bug... Anyone got this issue before? I think I have to return it :(

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dugga:
Hello guys,

First of all, sorry for my bad english, I'm brazilian and I will not use any kind of translation tool.

I had installed on my phone Cyanogen but I downloaded the leaked KitKat 4.4.2 for GT-I9505 and for some reason some trouble occoured during the procedure on Odin. Now my phone starts with: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."

I've downloaded many many rooms trying to flashing but none of them worked.

So searching here and there I found that I should be looking for "STOCK ROMs", but I downloaded few of them and no results at all...Then I noticed that I should be using some files in the MODEM, CSC or CP, CSC (depending on the version of Odin I'm using), but none of those files I've downloaded had those.

The list of ROMs I have:

"I9505XXUFNB8_I9505OXAFNB8_I9505XXUFNB8_HOME.tar.md5"

"I9505XXUEMKF_I9505OXXEMK3_I9505XXUEMKF_HOME.tar.md5"

"I9505VJUEMKE_I9505ZTOEMKE_I9505VJUEMKE_HOME.tar.md5"

"I9505XXUDMH8-PRE-ROOTED-KNOX_FREE-ODEX-FULL.tar.md5"

"I9505XXUFNA1_I9505OXAFNA1_I9505XXUFNA1_HOME.tar.md5"

"I9505VJUBMG3_I9505ZTOBMG3_I9505VJUBMG3_HOME.tar.md5"

I cannot flash any of those through Odin v3.07 or v3.09.

Looking here and there on the internet I found that I should be trying to split the HOME files into 3 files PDA,CSC and MODEM.

I've downladed Cygwin with "tar" "zip" and "md5" packages and SplitFUS2.

But here is an exemple of what happends when I try to split any of those above:

Can someone give me detailed information how can I proceed with this?

Thank you very much.

Hello quick question. Obviously I know you are not lawyer but am wondering if you can help me understand something.

If I release code under GPLv3 I still own it right? Like say I make an app and release it under GPLv3 I could later release it under a difference license that is incompatible with GPLv3 since its my source code because its my personal source code even though its exactly the same as the source code I published correct? Or do I loser ownership and then must be bound by GPLv3?

Also I have a question about derivative works. I know I am allowed to sell copies of derivative works but since I must include the source under GPLv3 how can one possibly make a successful business doing this? (unless I was just selling enterprise support)

I mean say I make the next viral game and sell it. But since it uses GPLv3 code then someone can just redistribute it for free so what would be the point? I am all for open source code (which is why I am considering releasing some of my code under GPLv3). But I cannot pour my heart into my projects if I am stuck working 40+ hours a week at a dead end job and would like a chance to succeed. Does that mean I basically should avoid GPLv3 code?
