I see a lot of custom roms made for this version but I don't know which one it is.. I know it is "international" but is that some special version that doesn't apply to US phones or does it simply mean ANY Snapdragon S4?

do you know if it's possible to pull some fixes out of the update and install them separately? or merge them as part of a custom ROM?

That's a weak argument. USB data communication is a standard. You follow it or you don't. Samsung doesn't because... well I don't know why but they don't follow it for Bluetooth which Apple does and why their devices work better with USB and BT. It's not because people coded it for them (some...

It depends on the carrier it seems... lot of the US ones have pushed it as an OTA update... some reports of them being released for the canadian version but only through Kies.. it seems to vary quite a lot.. that part of android drives me nuts.. with iphone if its out, its out for EVERYONE.

Is every carrier's update called MF3 or just the AT&T one? Because that's the one that apparently locks the bootloader, so I'm curious if they'll all do it or not.

Re: Galaxy S4 : Update for Canada Can anyone check if this locked the bootloader? When the Americans got it all the talk was DO NOT UPDATE AS IT LOCKS THE BOOTLOADER. On AT&T this didn't matter but for everyone else who had it unlocked, including us Canadians, this update kills that. As...

So the latest update for the nonGE S4 (issued by Samsung) supposedly fixes the crackling audio issue. Does anyone know if the GE ROM already has this fix or how they plan on fixing it on that phone?

So the latest update for the S4 (what are we calling that btw?) supposedly fixes the crackling audio issue. Does anyone know if the GE ROM already has this fix or how they plan on fixing it on that phone?

damn.. reviews on it say very slippery as well why is it so hard to find a good thin case that doesn't have a slipper back.. the S4 is already incredibly slippery naked

Ah okay that makes sense. So how does one know if the USB cable has these data lines tied together? Is there some nomenclature for it?

Yeah the charger that ships with the S4 says its output is 5V 2A.. so I gathered from that, that the phone itself can make use of the 2A to charge. Maybe I'm wrong with that and if so please correct me (with a source :))

This is the item in question that brought this into question: Amazon.com: Mediabridge High Output Dual USB Car Charger For iPad and iPhone (Dual Port High Output Design: 1.0 Amp USB for iPhone; 2.1 Amp for iPad or additional iPhone): Cell Phones & Accessories And here is the note on it...

Where do you turn off cashing for Play store? I don't see anything in Settings.

I don't like cases because they uglify the phone and the new constuction methods make the modern super phones extremely sturdy. However the back of the S4 is extremely slippery so I would love to just get some kind of a rubber sticky pad that I can put on the back of it to add some grip.. does...

I did find one there so thanks for mentioning that :) but it does have a cutout in the middle so it looks like it wouldn't affect the image but maybe it did.. I'll take more pictures when I get home, try to replicate the same conditions as when they were bad and see if they are still bad
