[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] D0gstar:
Hello All.

This is my first posting.

Is there a wp8 rom (look alike) for a samsung galaxy s 4 I9505.

Indeed I am newbie to custom roms but have been playing the last couple of months.

If someone would be kind enough to point me in the right direction to a rom that matches WP8 as close as possible, I would be very grateful

Background:

I have searched the forum and there are some many different roms too choose from.

Tried Cyangomod - that is pretty great but not what I was looking for.

Have since upgraded my phone to KitKat,and I am very happy with it.

Purchased and tried many metro launchers, but again, they are not what I am looking for.

Thanks :D:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
As far as a WP8 ROM, that doesn't exist. You can browse the Play Store though for WP8 launchers... that's the best you'll be able to find.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] D0gstar:
Wow surprised

Thanks for the reply lordcheeto03 - most appreciated.

I currently am running a launcher but launcherss are not what I am looking for, ideally I would like a port of wp8, but I know that hasn't been done.

Just so I understand correctly: There are no custom ROMs that mimic wp8?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
No.

There are not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] D0gstar:
Thanks

Ok Thanks Skipjacks!

I am going to flash to a new rom. Either paranoid or Pacs. Unless you or anyone else has a recommendation - I am open to anything new :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] D0gstar:
A journey

Since first joining Xda and asking for a possible WP8 rom for my SGS4, I have been on a mini journey of exploration. and I would like to conclude this thread, in case someone else has the same request as mine. I would like to say - Drop WP8 as quick a you can and climb on bord the Android band wagon. The roms available far surpass anything you could possible want.

I have tried a frew now, and have decided to stick with Phoepnix with a Miui loader and the themes are especially fun and fresh .

Thank you XDA

MB525 DEFY just charges only when the phone is OFF for some few minutes and when once it boots up it stops charging and shuts down automatically and the procedure is repeated and my phone is not detected by RSD lite it shows connected to USB but doesn't show up in my RSD Lite.. Is there any fix for this...:fingers-crossed:

I'm loving my phone.

I did my first complete reset and....astonishing.

It's completely different from when I first got our in September.

Smooooth.

Quick, fantastic.
[G2 General] TOdblD:
I was and am still very impressed with this phone. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when my phone arrived and I opened the box for the first time. This phone is still among the best of them even a year after being released.
[G2 General] Vlad Paul:
Wonderful. Thanks for sharing! :)
[G2 General] TOdblD:
No problem, happy to do so.
[G2 General] ficciomc:
I was a convinced htc user, but I was very tired about the problem of my old one x (battery drain, hot temperature ecc ecc).. when I have opened the g2's box...... wow.. the best phone I have ever had..

I wonder when we will be getting the new setup for camera options in our lockscreen? The s4 and note has it already. Im talking about stocked lockscreen okay. Yes we have the kitkat lockscreen already in our note 3. But when we hover our finger in the camera icon shortcut it doesnt have the circle on it. And it doesnt show the arrow going up. Hmmmm. That is the reason why i dont want to put my cam shortcut to my lockscreen.

Might be old news, but XDA Orbit has finally appeared on the O2 UK website

https://shop.o2.co.uk/ComingSoon

:) I'll certainly be looking to buy one!!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Big Purple Penguin:
XDA Orbit

I spoke to O2 customer services at the end of last month and they told me that it would be available in November. I was a little skeptical and bought the P3300 from Expansys on O2 as they're not offering the Trion yet. From past experience I wouldn't count on it.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] neptune:
I should have waited for the o2 version, been a big fan since my EXEC. Although I was under the impression that o2's relationship with HTC ended along with i-mates. Very happy to see a HTC phone coming from o2, but I wonder will there be more to come?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] davebo:
Long live ASUS

I believe the HTC relationship has been closed off (with regard to new handsets).

Expect new handsets to come from ASUS (i.e. ZInc, Graphite, etc.) due in Jan.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] wwaveydave:
Apparently someone in O2 Customer Service said that their spanky looking Artemis version was being released on the 27th of this month.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Lord Buckingham:
27th release date is correct.

Cheers

LB
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MasK:
Dude, Do ya know if this device is meant for the Asia market or not?

Coz I remembered here in Singapore, we had Dopod 818Pro instead of the Neo... which means to say only 1 brand will appear here, and that is Dopod.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Lord Buckingham:
Can only talk for UK, Germany, and Ireland, i suspect it will not be seen in Asia.

Regards

LB
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MasK:
With reference to this Orbit review:

http://www.4winmobile.com/viewtopic.php?p=42938

There are 2 things that I'm puzzled:

1) Infrared Gate: IrDA 1.2, 115200bit/s (SIR/CIR)

I thought the Artemis doesn't have Irda? Is there a mistake in the review?

2) Bluetooth: Bluetooth 1.2

Pretty much everywhere else says its got BT2.0. This review mention that it has BT1.2.

LB, have ya tried A2DP on this device yet?

Thanks!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Lord Buckingham:
MasK,

Yes I have but only with the Samsung SBH 170 headset and it appears to work OK if a little limited in range.

Cheers

LB
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] wertert:
launch date

I think this is always the same with a new hardset from O2 but i've just got off the phone with o2 select support and they reckon it's not out till after Christmas :-(
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] bigyellowdog:
The O2 website is saying its this month.

https://shop.o2.co.uk/ComingSoon

Worth noting though that different service providers within O2 will choose to stock it at different times, so maybe Select are next year.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] lmf_slacker:
the O2 Orbit would most probably be released in other parts of the world except asia coz its released bt Dopod instead
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MasK:
LB,

I know this sounds crazy.. but does the device have glabal warranty?

Secondly, do ya think it's available in the Netherlands? It does seem better looking and more sophisticated compared to the stock Artemis, and I'm wondering what my chances are in getting that into Asia. Thanks!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Lord Buckingham:
MasK,

The warranty will be valid if purchased from O2, i guess you are asking whether you can get it repaired if you take it outside the UK? I am not aware of any plans to sell the device in the Netherlands, alough it will be available in Germany.

Cheers

LB
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Grogo:
So if O2 don't release on the 27th (this month), the same way I've moved last year from Orange I can move this year to T-Mobile which have the MDA III.

Didn't quite like the phone signal on the Exec anyway...but if they do release...and they have a similar price as T-Mobile, then it isn't worth the hassle. Can't wait till after Christmas...can you?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MasK:
Well.. It's not abt waiting. In fact, I'm quite confident the new HTC devices (at least the Artemis) is gonna be released by end of this month during an IT exhibition. The thing is, the Orbit looks nicer than the original Artemis. It'll be real nice to have one here for the sake of uniqueness :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Grogo:
Well, I in fact like the original as it's a bit...square.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MasK:
Hmm.. yeah.. I do like squary designs.

It just seems that the Orbit has a better colour combination (something the Atom should have int he first place, instead of making it all black!)

Anyways, design-wise.. the Artemis is definitely better than the trinity, imho. At least they got out of the magician/prophet form factor.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Buyuyu:
Hi everyone!

I've just had my O2 customer services representative on the phone to confirm that next week I will have the XDA Orbit delivered to my office, so it seems that this time they have done they homework...

Can't wait to play with it!

XDA Orbit in O2 Shops Now

I have it from a source, that O2 Shops have some stock of the XDA Orbit!

I have mine reserved!

:-)

Got mine today it is awsome :)

me too - I'm happy

Does the XDA Orbit from O2(UK) have SIM lock? Thanks...
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
no actually it isnt :-)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Keef:
O2 Orbit

Have you guys got your Orbits from UK shops?

I asked my local o2 shop (southampton) about it they looked at me with blank faces, no idea what i was on about.

It's not on the website yet either so far as I can see.

Is there a number I can call to order one?

What were the tarrifs like??

cheers

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] stevenmckeown1:
Orbit

Mine was from a retail store in Liverpool. Got it on upgrade and moved to o2 max to get it for free with Co-pilot GPS Micro SD card, window mount and car charger.

Got the orbit having to wait for a couple of days the co-pilot pack.

i would check with O2 retail rather than customer service, as they are different.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
I got it free from O2 shop in Worcester on the £35/month contract. Knocked em down from the £70 they wanted initially. I get 400 mins and 100 txts a month. Happy geeza! They wouldn't throw in an SD card though. Tightarses. ;-)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Keef:
Orbit spec

doesn't the Orbit come with TOMTOM6 like the P3300 in it's other guises?

Is the hardware spec different in anyway to the HTC P3300? GPS still built in?

or have O2 fiddled with it like T-Mobile have?

I hope not. Otherwise i may just buy the P3300 sim free or via expansys.

cheers
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] stevenmckeown1:
orbit

O2 are selling it with co-pilot software not tomtom.

Spec is slightly different check out the below review:-

http://www.4winmobile.com/portal.php?topic_id=3830

Has GPS built in :)

I have had a couple of XDA devices in the past but always found they were great PDA's but crap phones - this device in my humble opinion is just enough of both to keep me happy :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] hongsit:
rang up O2 store in London today, they said, they don't even know if O2 is going to do it.

Couldn't be bothered to continue to conversation, as he obviously didn't have a clue!! I'm glad O2 keeps their sales people up to date with the products they sell!!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] thegadgetman:
Just upgraded to the Orbit today (got the last one!).

But am I the only one to feel short-changed?

No MicroSD card,

No GPS software and

No Case!!

What's going on??
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Grogo:
Just upgraded today to the Orbit. With an online account as I have they want £99.99 for the upgrade (£30 month). Even if changing to a higher tariff the price is still the same.

So they have it in stock, I also called the Wood Green store in London they have it is sotck as well.

Will post again when received.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Keef:
yeah got one finally :-)

been waiting for ages, can't wait to get home tonight to play

No Case, Satnav or car mount's a bit of a let down

but promises to be a top device so still happy
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] PhiL P:
Went in to the Bromley O2 store today and they had them in stock, apparently they arrived yesterday. They got one out of it's box to show me - very small and sleek compared to my beastly Exec!

To upgrade on my £25pm tariff they said it would cost £150 for the handset. If I switched to a £35pm tariff (for min. 6 months) it would drop the handset price to £50. If I switched to a £40pm tariff the handset would still be £50 but it would also include the Co-Pilot software.

Also spoke to O2 Online today and they reckon there's now a one week delay showing on the Orbit so they're not expecting it to be available before Monday..
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] hongsit:
Got my Orbit today from O2 store in Cheapside, London (Last one), and I must say, pretty impressed so far. The Rollr is better than expected, still prefer d-pad, but it may be just a matter of getting use to it. O2 software still slows it down a bit, so didn't install it.

Size is more or less the same as the Prophet (SPV M600), but seems smaller when held in hand.

Bought for £49 with £35 tarrif. Not the best deal, but tired of looking for good deals..

Overclocked to 234, and its running smoothly.

I have come across a couple of times when I wake up the phone and the back light doesn't come back on, leaving me to soft reset or trying to guess the back light settings!! I think this is something to do with what I have installed, could possibly be the over clocking! Not sure, will investigate further if it happens again. I do know some other peeps are having same issues.

Didn't get the Copilot software as I have tomtom already :)

Need to get a memory card to install tomtom maps, until then I can't test the GPS properly.

No case came with the unit which is a bit crap.. But, overall happy!!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] gomerpyl3@aol.com:
How do folks?

My Orbit has apparently been sent for dispatch today (if they can be trusted). It'll be my first pda/phone & am looking forward to seeing what it can do.

I noticed that it doesn't come with the microSD card, which isn't a big deal as they aren't super-expensive. But what I don't know is the max size that is compatible. I have read (I think) that the max is 512mb, which frankly is pants - can anyone vouch for this?

Thanks!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] victoradjei:
I am using the 2Gb Sandisc Ultra II on my HTC P3300. Cool :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Grogo:
Yep, it'a all true. It's their O2 not our O2.

No card, no case, no software. £99 with an online account (upgrade) on £30/month. The only good thing was delivery, under 24hrs.

So T-mobile have no Wi-Fi, O2 ships with no case...can anyone do something proper, can we ever have it all? :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] London75:
Unless I really bottle it, I think the ETEN x500 beats both the Orbit and MDA III hands down.

Faster processor, Wifi works, Bigger battery but thinner form (although longer and wider) and a leather case included!

Around £360 SIM free by the looks of it. Search for Matt and Tracy's blog, they have a £30 voucher for Clove.

Would someone please tell me, whether the (UK) O2 XDA Orbit is sim-locked or not? Thanks for your answers...

Move to O2 - problme solved

sorry, message deleted as I put it int he wrong forum
[Sprint LG G3] mrush:
Ok guys, the nightmare came true and I dropped my phone just a couple of days after getting it. Didn't have a case and cracks the top right hand corner of the screen, which doesn't affect it's usability or the touch screen. It's relatively minor but it still totally bothers me.

I also have been having overheating problems and massive battery drain. Despite my efforts to get to the bottom of it, nothing has really worked...

So my question is, do you think I will have a problem getting another handset in the Sprint store since I already dropped it? Anyone know their policy on replacing a damaged phone yet for reasons besides that... I am still within my two weeks of getting this phone and my new plan. Any insight?
[Sprint LG G3] fgcchevy:
In my experience with my local store, they will say that the dropping of the phone lead to the cracking of the screen as well as the internal effects you are having with it. They look for anything to get out of exchanging a handset at my local sprint shop.

I once took them an s3 that was having software issues, even after many factory resets. Instead of going ahead and replacing my device, with Mt insurance, she took the phone apart to look for water damage. The outside indicator was not showing water damage but the inside indicator was. So she said we had to file a claim. I argued with her about it, because that phone had never been dropped in water. Why would the outside indicator not show water damage but the inside show some? Anyway sprint did it right with the issue, but I'm just saying, they look for any reason not to exchange your device at no cost.

Sent from my Black Lg G3
[Sprint LG G3] Henri Blanche:
The exact same thing happened to me when I had a two-month old GS2 and I brought it into a Sprint store and asked what my options were. The nice lady behind the counter said that while technically she shouldn't help me she would be willing to swap out phones gratis. The only catch was that the new phone would be refurbished. So I went home and backed up everything and performed a factory reset. And when I returned I was able to swap out phones hassle-free. She even correctly guessed upon examination that my phone was rooted and didn't care. The refurbished phone looked brand new; the only way to tell it was refurbished was the internal flag which I checked out of curiosity. I kept the battery from the original phone; otherwise it was truly a fabulous experience.

That all said, I have a feeling that this was a rather unique set of circumstances and I really don't know what they'll say about a two-week old LG G3. I strongly suspect you're going to have more trouble than I did.

Best of luck!
[Sprint LG G3] Rally187:
im assuming you dont have insurance? idk about you guys but with framily plan i pay 50 bucks a month with unlimited and insurance. good deal. anyway YEA the same thing happened to me with my evo 3d i dropped it and my phone went crazy i couldnt mount it and it was rooted they swapped it out in the store anyway. I hear a lot of stories about bad experiences so i feel lucky to have a good store to go to. But its sure worth a try. are you doing the easy pay? a lot of times they will fix the screen for free if you are.
[Sprint LG G3] R2DeeTard:
Sprint has always been good to me about fixing/replacing devices. I cracked my screen on a Galaxy Nexus, I took it in to the local store and they told me to come back in an hour. When i came back i was treated to a brand new screen at no additional cost. I'm just speaking for myself of course, im not saying they WONT charge you, but their customer service in my experience is very good.
[Sprint LG G3] Marcm15:
I've had similar good experiences with a Sprint authorized repair center in my area but after they closed and I had to deal with a corporate store the service level dropped to what many others describe as horrible.

I guess it depends on where you end up taking the phone but I would try and stay away from corporate locations...
[Sprint LG G3] Koroz:
It's funny that this is the case, because I find the same thing here in my area. While I was with Big Red, you NEVER wanted to go anywhere but a corporate store because you would get horrible service (in THIS area), with Sprint is the absolute exact opposite, I will never go into a corporate store unless I am specifically instructed that I have to for whatever I am trying to get done. The customer service is at least here, horrible in comparison. I am actually stressin myself because my phone has started (of course on the 14th day!) to lock up every hour or so and I can't use the screen. It requires a battery pull. Everyday this phone starts to worry me a little more.
[Sprint LG G3] sinisin:
Get off ART.
[Sprint LG G3] mrush:
What is this I keep hearing about ART?
[Sprint LG G3] Koroz:
I didn't have mine on, but its a different way android handles applications on the phone. Will be the "standard" once all the bugs are worked out.
[Sprint LG G3] intheory:
Also dropped my two-week old G3 and cracked it. LG opened an RA but no details on costs - alluded that maybe it would be free but nothing firm. :/

The ubreakifix teardown doesn't get to the screen, nor does the YouTube teardown I found. I'll assume the glass and digitizer are adhered together though; which I don't want to mess with. :(
[Sprint LG G3] mrush:
O

Will you keep us updated? I want to know how it goes... Especially if the fix is easy and/or LG is willing to do it for free... Some reports are saying repairs are going to be very simple because of the design, but nothing spoke of the screen.

Also, where did you go to open an RA with LG? Do they give you a quote prior to working on it? I'm interested to see what I can do...
[Sprint LG G3] intheory:
LG quoted me $154 to repair the screen. I'm not ready to take that plunge although it's in line with what I'm seeing for similar device repairs.

You can open an RA request from their support section at LG.com - I chatted with someone who opened it for me.
