[Galaxy S 5 General] system.img:
I bought s5 from out of India and then sold, what a China cheap looking phone, this phone is over priced, apple 5s,even 7 times better, over this cheap dirty looking phone, I was Samsung fan, after seen s5 uuuaaaeee, using xperia z1 what a awesome smoothness and feeling on holding,

-I was one of the persons who criticized the S5 as cheap and ugly when it was launched. But, I tried it out hands on at a shop yesterday and my perspective about the phone changed. I agree it does not look amazing in front of other flagships such as the M8, Z2, etc, but is by no means a "China cheap looking phone" or a "cheap dirty looking phone". The build quality is great and the phone feels very comfortable to hold and the back is grippy and nice. Although the Z1 has the more "premium" looking Glass back, it is the same material which can crack easily when dropped or when subjected to sudden temperature change. And I highly doubt the Z1 is comfortable to hold with the square shape and sharp edges.

When I had s5 my friend came to me and said hey u bought galaxy grand? Wtf.

Spending 50k and people say grand? Even holding s5 feels like 20$ China phone.

-It's your friend's fault for not knowing the basic differences in the appearance of a Galaxy Grand and an S5. :p

I agree most Galaxy phones look similar and that's what might have confused your friend, but that doesn't mean that the S5 is the same as a Galaxy Grand in terms of quality. And I don't know what made you feel that the Galaxy S5 felt like a 20$ China phone. :eek:

What need for heart beat? I can go to doctor and take medicine,

-Samsung is not forcing you to use the Heart Rate monitor. It is there for the people who will want to use it. It does not disturb the normal usage of the phone in any way. May be a gimmick for some, may be useful for others. Who knows?

What's going on in this thread, why so Much hate

Sent from my s5, you Mirin?
[Galaxy S 5 General] frettfreak:
My mini review:

Upgraded from an HTC m7 to the s5 on friday. Here is my take:

So far, over all, this is a good phone. Its good at almost everything, but there is nothing i am in love with. I think samsung took it up a notch in the build quility department. No, it doesnt feel like an HTC phone, but its not trying to. I actually really like the soft touch back. Wish there was a SLIM case that felt just like it! its plastic, done ALMOST right. lol i think if they would have dont something a little different with the chrome ring around the phone, NO one would have any quality complaints IMO.

Having HTC for the last 2 years (had a one s before the m7) i was just looking for something different. the refinements on touchwiz are a HUGE step in the right direction, but still leaves room for improvement. the system options menu is WOW... just ridiculous to navigate with many duplicates in the list. and my magazine is a far cry from blinkfeed (which i actually loved). daylight pictures are not even a close comparison to what i got out of the m7, and even low light seem to be OK (obviously thats where the m7 really shined, but a year of having a 4mp camera and i am SO done with it... i dont care what their marketing team has to say, its a 4mp camera). I would LOVE to have the sense 6 camera software with the camera hardware on the s5!! Thats another step in the right direction for samsung, they just need to keep going though.

One thing is for sure, the screen on this thing is eye popping! Saturated just enough, and the daylight visibility is unlike any screen i have used to date.

the odd thing is this phone, at least for me, seems to have better ergonomics in my hand than the M7. I don't even know why but it just feel more comfortable to use to me. i cant explain it, its fatter and taller, but it just feels easier to use to me.

things that seem to suck in the samsung camp: different development threads on xda for every carrier. I know there were thread like this for the m7, but there was no need to use them. I could go to the regular M7 thread and use any rom i chose. Seems like i need to wait for someone to "port" roms from the other s5 threads which kinda blows. There also seems to be almost a purposefully put delay on EVERY button push. Multitasking and home at least where are on my m7, everything was pretty instantaneous.

All in all, i would say samsung did a lot of thing right and i am happy with my purchase... however, so far based on this experience, my next phone will NOT be a samsung unless some major stuff changes. It just doesnt have the WOW factor for me that i had with the m7. There were a lot of things i LOVED about the m7, everything for the s5 just seems to be good enough not to hate, but not good enough to fall in love with.
[Galaxy S 5 General] claud0902:
I'm not trying to defend for s5 and I may be a bit off topic here. But what are the WOW factors that m7 brought to us really?

Put my wife's m7 next to my nexus 5, I only see the excellent speaker, buildin IR, and the fast focus+snapshot from its camera are advantages over my phone. However, these strengths are only NICE TO HAVE features and far from enough to make me fall in love with this so called the best 2013 flagship because the disadvantage list of the phone to me is LONG:

- hot metal body in general heavy use (no 1 complaint from wife)

- even worse battery life than nexus 5

- very limited LED notification light

- not good ratio of the screen size : body size : weight (bigger, heavier but smaller screen)

- No WIRELESS charging ability (one deal breaker to me)

- A bit coarse finish (yes I mean it). It is not from research but a generally accepted fact, Asian ppl have different judgment on pretty stuff. This also applys to phone. The m7, to my wife, and to many Asian friends, is ok/good looking but not damn pretty. They focus more on the details of the manufacture craft than general look. For example, the use of plastic side and weird position of the plastic lines on the back (especially noticeable on silver model) do not deliver a good first impression to them. And a bit rough edge cut on the button/power/earphone holes (not hard to notice) do not make them feel "premium". So to a known number of asian, such as my Chinese relatives and my Korean wife and her family members who saw her m7, the view that "the m7 is prettier than the same period gs4" even becomes a highly debatable argument.

Therefore, the m7 only has a few better-to-have features to me however it also has many less competitive features which made me very regretted to have picked for my wife.

However, s5 is a very attractive device to me. I agree with you that the new TW is better but still far near perfect. And this is the only thing that stops me from moving to s5 atm. However, I have to admit the phone delivers almost everything I need in the hardware side: micro sd; removeable battery; light weight on its size; IR, wireless charging; water resistance; fast and quality camera. The ability to provide so many useful features with minimum sacrifice on the body size and weight is a big WOW to me (check how much extra weight and bulkness the m8 has to add in order to deliver a equivalent screen size and micro sd slot).

In my situation, getting a m7 or m8 simply means a lot of sacrifice or compromise for some nice to have features. While getting a s5 means a bit of compromise (still) for many key smartphone features.
[Galaxy S 5 General] frettfreak:
That's the great thing about Android then right? We can have a choice. I think the fact that it's "your wife's" m7 says it all then. Imo sense is much faster and more logically laid out than sense and I honestly prefer sense (especially 5.5+) over stock Android, I honestly don't give 2 shats about a removable battery (i had fantastic battery life btw with my m7). Not going into this this here. Not the right thread. Doesn't matter anyway. It's my review and my opinion (which is what I thought the purpose of the thread was) . Nothing more nothing less. Glad you are happy with your phone.

[Galaxy S 5 General] juntjoo:
I'm loving my gs5 just as much if not more than I loved my gs2 when that came out. How long ago was that? Again just as it was released I got it. As you can see I really got the most out of my s2 skipping 3&4, which shouldn't have been there in the first place but we're so spoiled we need something new every year. Anyway, so this phone too most definitely will serve me another 3 years also.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bouzouki:
So after a couple of years messing with my android phones and learning all about android I decided to take a try building my own ROM. I did a couple of months of research and finally built slimkat from their source...I know intimately I will have to flash it to see if it works but is there any way I could check it out to make sure its ok to flash? If I did something wrong I'm assuming it could brick my phone. I compared it to the most recent slimkat on their site and my zip is about 5 MBS larger than the one on their site.

Can anyone suggest what I should do before flashing it on my phone,

I am on a d801 T-Mobile g2
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdamaged:
I'm assuming you posted to the wrong forum, this is for Chromecast...anyways...

(nevermind about MR, I did not see you were on a g2)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bouzouki:
But I could potentially brick my phone couldn't I ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdamaged:
(Had some other info but it was based on the fact you had a Nexus device which you don't)

If you are worried about bricking your device at every little turn, then you should probably just stick to what you use now, and toss out the ROM you built. Nandroid and try, or just forget the whole thing.

FWIW, MR does not support the d801 T-Mobile g2...so forget MR.

nevermind, i flashed it and it worked like a charm. thanks for the advice.

Hi,

I currently have YP-G70 and would like to go to 4.4

Here is what I have now...

Andriod 4.2.2

Kernel 3.0.73

CyanogenMod 10.1.2.... venturi_usa

What is the process for me to upgrade? I find the instructions a bit cryptic if you happen to have a good set.

Thanks!

Terry
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] M00nMax:
There are currently five Android 4.4 (Kit-Kat) roms for the YP-G70. Take your pick from these and download the latest version.

BeanStalk

PAC-ROM

CyanogenMod 11

SlimKat

Carbon

After downloading, transfer the file(s) to your device and flash them, like you would have done for 4.2. Some of them rewrite the partition table or other things, so you will need to flash them twice. Most have instructions on the rom's page how to install them and any specific details, such as the recommended performance mods for BeanStalk. And don't forget to make a backup before changing anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Laughter On Water:
Terry,

Try this youtube video by someone named dosdude1. It's very comprehensive:

How to install CyanogenMod 11 on a Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0

?v=NqdTwFcItZA

You may also want to watch the one he created before that.

How to install CyanogenMod 10.2 on a Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0

?v=mlyTZZVOvag

Sorry - I can't post URL's yet, since I'm a noob. In the youtube search field, type "galaxy player 5.0 cyanogenmod". The first couple of videos should be the ones by dosdude1.

You'll end up wiping the system since you're going from CM10 to CM11.

Good luck.

I installed it right after i installed the rom and the gapps without launching android once, is this the correct way or should i've launched android first and then start up CWM to install new kernel?
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] dev-DaT:
found bugs

1. my pc doesn't recognize the phone, when i turn on usb debugging my pc gives me the connect sound, but i can't manage files, it does show LGE-E610 in device manager 3 times, so i thought maybe updating drivers would do it? but unfortunately no.

2. when listening to music and then locking the phone...it looks like deepsleep is overriding musicplayer or something, eventually the phone crashes, this happends after ~2min after you locked the phone. This happends to both music players...i wanted to post logcat but....can't connect phone to pc so i will edit that later to it.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Android Development] raul338:
