TimeOut

Samsung Galaxy S4 SPH-L720 Time for an upgrade! There's a bunch of great new phones out there so after doing some research and getting some hands on at the store, I decided on a new toy. Released online on April 27th and in stores on May 1, 2013, the all ...  

On my version of the Galaxy S4, there are several ways to root: via ChainFire autoroot or Motochopper. The newest update (MDL) had some improvements over the original shipped (MDC). Motochopper worked great at getting root access on MDC but once you took ...  

I have the S3, but I am going to save this thread as a reference for when I am ready to get my next phone. Is yours the new mini-S4 or is this the larger model? Good luck with the new toy! Best, respo

Thanks for looking! The S4 is not a huge improvement over the S3 so it's good if you upgrade the next time around. I got the 5" full size (i9505) and I'm liking the large screen. Interesting that screen size is just like watch sizes. 3 years ago the HTC E... 

I am afraid to and I am not sure I need to in any case.

Samsung will be making some new product announcements at the Samsung Premier event on the 20th. Will post when info comes around. -MW

From the very first paragraph! Should homeland security be worried? This galaxy thingy ...LOL

Root acccess on Android is equivalent to Jailbreaking (RedSn0w, Green P0is0n, Evasi0n, etc) on iOS. In the past, you couldn't do things like copy/paste and multi task with the Apple stuff so with jailbreaking you could've had that functionality. Stock is ... 

A feature of Android OS that I like is that you can make a full Nandroid backup. The usual recoveries: CWM (ClockworkMod), TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project), and 4EXT, which one shall I install? While CWM is the standard for custom recovery, I chose to ins...  

As with my other devices, I picked up some accessories fo rthe Galaxy S4: TPU case (a Yellow trimmed one), class 10 Sandisk 64gb MicroSD, and a clear screen protector: When it comes to screen protectors, they offer dry and wet application. The problem wit...  

i have the Galaxy S2 phone which i find really good, but the improvements are obvious on the S4. i also have the Galaxy S2 tablet which beats an ipad hands down apart from a bit of screen quality. as i wear varifocal glasses that difference is not enough ... 

4G out here is fast! I'm not a fan of the iPad but it's ok since I jailbroke it with Evasi0n. Have to agree with you about the Samsung products, I like them. A lot will happen in a year, so it'll be cool to see what they release in the near future. -MW

Great Minds Think Alike :-), I also got the 64GB Sandisk and Glass Protector, but I think I need to reread your root file access post a couple of more times to get it, is it to create a backup for your data on the phone? By the way Fatburger opened up i...  

the only thing i really miss on my S2 is the 64gb card. i can only use 32gb and have 30gb of music on it so not a lot of space left. G On 13 Jun 2013 17:58, "www watchprosite" *Alert from:* www:watchprosite > *Posted By:* SALMANQ8 (registered) on June 13t... 

oh yes i have very ecclectic tastes from blues to rock to modern female stuff, even classical. everything i own except classical goes on my microsd cards. 1 in my phone, 1 in my tablet, all on my laptop and all cds's. i have a great bluetooth speaker that... 

Those sd cards (regardless of brand) has a potential to corrupt so it's always good to be backed up. The sound from a bluetooth speaker makes a big difference, which one did you get? I should post a review for one. -MW

its a Liberty Sound WSB500. it was actually a xmas gift from a fellow purist who read good reviews about it on Amazon. the reviews are fully justified as it sounds superb and i will review it for you when i have time. i have a fellow purist coming to stay... 

Very generous of your PuristS friend! Look forward to your report and have fun with your visiting pal, stay out of trouble you guys! ;) -MW

i'm sure you'll see pics. surprisingly its not Bim :) G On 17 Jun 2013 19:55, "www watchprosite" *Alert from:* www:watchprosite > *Posted By:* DRMW (registered) on June 17th, 2013 - 11:55 > > *Title: cool gift! > * > > *

Are you a fan of Lakers Magic Johnson? He is the owner of the Fatburger chain here in L.A. I like their burgers, you can order skinny or fat fries, or even add a fried egg on top! Rooting for me is a must, it allows you to change all kinds of things that ... 

Love the mushroom Swiss and skinny fries ! At least once a week for me ... Too tempting!

I love it :) Get the burger with a fried egg and be sure to order the fat fries! - AT PS. Love the Samsung S4 too :)

Been really enjoying my Galaxy S4 ( ), it's just an awesome smartphone! When I first got it had MDL already update from MDC so I rooted it right away. A few days a go, a new update (MF9) was release on my carrier. Since I have modded my S4, I couldn't ta...  

For those of you who are rooted on their S4, here is a way to add the Wifi Hotspot toggle to the Notification Panel. YOU MUST BE ROOTED in order to do this. As always do a full backup just in case! With a SQLite editor ( I used the sqlite Database Editor ...  

For Stock ROOTED S4's (and Note 2's) check out this app! It's a simplier alternative to something like Nottach Xposed. As always, make sure you have a current Nandroid backup prior to modifying your device. This is for TW based ROMs and cannot be used wit...
