Hey guys I flashed this rom on my S5 with TWRP the ROM works great I know its just for the GSM Variant but is there anyway we can get it to work with the CDMA Version. I flashed it and I didnt get any forced closes the rom felt alot smoother and faster than the regular version but I could not get the internet to work. Wifi does work and so does making calls. The settings in APN are correct but as much as I tried I could not get the Data to start working. Has anyone else tried this yet?

It may be helpful to look in the android development section for instructions on porting ROMs. It may be fairly easy. You could also politely ask the developer if they'd be willing to make a vzw version.

Hey there!

My wife's S3 still runs 4.1.2 as I wanted to keep it away from 4.3 update issues.

However today I had to wipe it down to a fresh and clean as it was running with great lag.

Now it is flash like a light ;) but I just noticed on SamMobile there are 4.3 April/May releases. Kies says NA5/NA8 is waiting to bloat wife's phone. Should I do it? Issues are fixed or better to stay with 4.1.2?

Or maybe Odin it with some other country (S3 in Poland, International version, no branding)...

She is not android freak. She just need responsible phone able to call and have good battery life for some photos/facebook.

Thx in advance

Hey guys, long time fan of the rom, since I wasn't ready to sacrifice ART for stock rom w/ Xposed (among other things, battery life, PA's features...etc.) I really do miss seeing the signal strength as dBm, gotta love numerically accurate data :D.

Would it be possible for you to include an option to either change the signal status to dBm, or perhaps include both bars and dBm in the status bar? It would really be helpful as my area has terrible service, i'm sure others would enjoy it as well. Xposed has a module for it, Dashclock I've tried, neither do it justice.

This is something I am always looking for on app search rampages but I can never seem to find anything that works quite well enough, seeing as you guys do just about everything totally awesome, I thought I'd put in a request.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
You sound like you really don't know what you're mate.

I think the best advice anyone can give you is to put your phone down and read some more.

If you have successfully flashed CWM then all you need to do is flash a ROM of your choice then wipe data / factory reset.

Also before you even think about flashing anything to your phone you NEED to back up your EFS partition.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hetfield88:
you're right but now, since it's in recovery mode i have to fix this asap. i entered the recovery and did wipe data/factory reset like the tutorial said, then proceeded to install zip(the ROM) but it fails E/... status 7 installation aborted.

and i did backup data and sd card but the backups are in my pc and i cant get to them in recovery mode :/
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 11calcal:
Don't panic bad it's just down to the version of recovery ?

Just go back into recovery & try flashing again once you get status 7 go back & second line from bottom where you chose zip you will see "allow update old binary" tick the box if not ticked or until if it's selected then select zip to flash & it'll go straight through :D :cowboy:

Hi all,

Was hoping to get some advice on headphones here. I'm looking at getting the Klipsch X10 v. X11i

I can get the discontinued X10's for pretty cheap, about $50 less than the X11i's but I was wondering if the X11i are worth the extra investment? If I can get pretty much the same headphones for $50 less that would be great. I just don't know enough about the technical specs etc to know whether The X11i are THAT much better than the X11i. I have a pair of S4 Klipsch right now and they have been great, but definitely looking for that next level headphone for my music :D Any advice is great!

Thanks
[General Accessories] jRi0T68:
The first thing to ask yourself is where your S4's are lacking TO YOU.

My experience with Klipsch S4 was that the bass spilled into the mids too much, the highs weren't very detailed, and they still somehow managed to not go as deep in the bass as I wanted. Worse, the strain reliefs were very weak and the cable was prone to breaking.

Given that, my requirements when I replaced mine were removable cables, better details in the highs, but a focus on mids with a strong bass presence that didn't spill over. Combining that with my $100 budget led me to Shure SE215s.

Your wants may be different. Don't lock yourself into Klipsch. They're a great brand, but with headphones you can often find something more suitable for the same price.

For recommendations better tailored to your needs, please see my guide, copy the recommendation form, and be sure to mention what you would like to be better in your S4s.

Lastly, read lots of reviews before you finally purchase. Make sure some of the reviews are very recent (sometimes problems are fixed that may have turned you away from them upon initial release).

[Guide] Headphone/Earphone Buying
[General Accessories] vectron:
I have to agree, after awhile when I started to review more headphones, S4 went down in value/sound quality. X10 and X11 are plagued with build quality problems. Removable cable is a plus, and in sub $100 category you have SE215 and ATH-IM50 (waiting to get M50 for review soon). Other two, which have been the latest hype on head-fi, are Ostry KC06 and KC06A (A ver has more bass) and Zero Audio Tenore - also planing to review both Ostry and ZA within a month. Those are in sub $60 category, though cables are not removable, and supposed to have sound quality of $150-$200 range premium headphones. The only problem dealing with small Chinese and/or Japanese brand names, you have to buy them from overseas and typically can't apply warranty if you are in US.

As Jeremy suggested, visit his page and fill out the headphone form to get a suggestion ;) Also, if you have 20 hours to kill, visit head-fi.org :D

Thanks to all of you for the suggestions. Part of the reason I am so drawn to the Klipsch is because I've had a great feel inside of my ear from their ear bud tips. I've never been able to sit that long with ear buds in without having pain or soreness but with klipsch I could wear them all day. I will look into other options for sure! It's an investment that I don't want to make lightly, because I love my headphones. Thanks a lot

Couple of things: I assume foam tips are something that I buy as an add on/ accessory? And I am a bit overwhelmed with trying to find a pair that will be best for me, if you don't mind [MENTION=3571411]jRi0T68[/MENTION] could you comment on what aspects of a headphone I should look for based on the following:

1) I love the sound of instruments, especially guitar. I listen to metal, and I enjoy both the high frequencies and the lower frequency/ heavier riffs

2) bass is not as important for me, although I do listen to electronic music every now and again.

3) vocal clarity is something I like also, but not as much as the sound of the guitars

In terms of "mid range" and treble etc. what should I be looking for? I read your guide but I'm still finding that I don't know what I'm looking for lol. Thanks so much for your help
[General Accessories] jRi0T68:
I'd say you're looking for bright highs without sibilance, warm detailed mids, and bass texture over bass quantity.

I will take a shot with my recommendation - HiFiMAN RE400 ($99), neutral detailed warm sound, not too bright, great clarity and separation, not too much bass - but very detailed quality. Comes with a ton of eartips including double-flange type (you will feel right like at home with these after using Klipsch), some custom eartips, and even two pairs of premium Comply tips. Also, this is their new production batch with improved reliability. I reviewed it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2748643
[General Accessories] TheEmpyre:
Great review. And thanks for the recommendation. I can't believe those are $99 they have received great reviews and sound exactly like what I want in a headphone according to jriot. I am a bit concerned about how large they look compared to my s4i though. I wear my headphones for hours at a time and really dislike having a sore ear when I take them out. Can you speak to that a little bit, your experience with their size?

Sent from my HTC One_M8
[General Accessories] vectron:
Aside from Klipsch small design, these are among the smallest shells you can find. I zoom in a lot in my pictures ;)
[General Accessories] jRi0T68:
In addition to RE400, my search based on your criteria leads me to suggest T-Peos H100 or H200. Based solely on reviews, they sound like something I would enjoy if I had your preferences. Definitely worth looking into.

There are also IEMs like Vsonic GR07 or GR01 that might be what you're looking for. You'd need to prepare for a big loss in bass punch but added clarity.

Dunu DN-1000 might also suit you as a bassy iem that improves a lot on the clarity that is missing desperately from Klipsch S4.

Thanks for all the recommendations. I cruised over the head-fi and posted on their rec forum and got a few suggestions, one of which being the HiFiMan RE-400's but also Etymotic. I ended up buying the Etymotic hf5's for $100 on Amazon. So far so good, I can't believe some of the sounds I was missing with some of my metal songs. There are some notes as well as some synth in there i was completely missing before haha. Amazing what a decent set of IEMs can do for your music experience. And for $100, can't beat that!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] doodlebird:
it's nd8 all the way. i've also tried different nd8 roms, different recoveries, different launchers etc etc etc. i can't seem to replicate the crashes from any one action but one thing that is consistent seems to be that if i reload the ROM onto the phone, the crashes go away for roughly an hour. after a while though it will randomly start doing it again. i've even reloaded the rom and let my phone just sit there completely fresh from being reset while occasionally locking/unlocking the phone to see if it has crashed, just for the phone to eventually give way to crashing every time i lock it after roughly an hour of use. the phone is not getting overheated either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Argh. I sympathize with what must be very frustrating. I hate it when stuff like that happens and I know it doesn't help but at least it's consistent. I take it that the Knox counter has been tripped (go into Download mode and check the line that says Warranty = ??) and that you wouldn't be able to send it in for repairs again because of it? It seems they either missed or caused a second problem with your phone when they fixed the first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] doodlebird:
mine says warranty bit: 1, is that mean it has been tripped?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yes, it's tripped and there's absolutely no way to un-trip it, so Samsung wouldn't repair it under warranty unless you just get lucky.

It got tripped when you put a custom recovery on.
