Re: Is verizon Samsung GS4 GSM unlocked for international use ? It's not a law, it's FCC regulations, but yes. This is why every LTE device of theirs has come out SIM-unlocked. Wrong. You rattle on and on like you have a clue, but you have literally no idea what you're talking about. *EVERY*...

Re: Is verizon Samsung GS4 GSM unlocked for international use ? You're wrong. You don't even own the S4. The S3 is irrelevant.

These are real. And I agree that Amazon letting sellers pile on to a listing, while not enabling seller-specific reviews to show up, is shady.

Advice from a long-time Android user: the reason people don't worry about in-OS visual voicemail is that US residents have access to something much cooler -- Google Voice. You can use it for many, many things but the simplest is just as VVM *plus automatic transcriptions*. I don't even listen...

Just put it into the Notifications folder at the top of your internal storage directory (/storage/emulated/0/ if you're going through My Files), or the Ringtones folder for ringtones. This will add the sounds to the options for either general use or for any single app.

The stock Samsung video player is pretty awesome. Handles way more formats/codecs than AOSP. Don't forget to disable iMessage before you dump your iPhone. Don't want those texts being rerouted to a device you no longer use...

Swype is better than its competitors for, um, swyping. Try it... I like the stock Samsung keyboard for entering passwords, though.

Re: Is verizon Samsung GS4 GSM unlocked for international use ? Wrong. You just need to enter the proper APN for data (as on any phone). There is no APN editing block as there was on the S3 or the original Note 2 firmware.

There are a trillion clock widgets on the Play Store. Clockr is among the coolest (and simplest). As for your truck... you gotta check your truck manual/info on what devices the head unit is compatible with.

It's amazing that the VZ model has AOSP ROMs posted before TW ROMs... I just want a cleaned-up de-VZed stock. Ah well.

Re: Quick question about rooting on my s4 (EE UK) Start by Odining a recovery: TWRP for i9505 Then back up what you have (if you like). If you were starting from scratch, I'd tell you then to use Chainfire Auto-Root, but I think there may be some stray files sitting around from your previous...

Check XDA for your specific carrier variant. What you need is a full Odin package. This will wipe everything, but fix everything as well in one fell swoop.

Sell your carrier S4, buy a Developer Edition.

Geez, as I told you in the AT thread, you have to add it as a "Corporate" account. Delete the account from your phone (from Settings > Accounts), then re-add it as here, under "Built-In Email App": How To Access Hotmail And Outlook.com On Your Android Device

Yes. That entire D-L post is ripped from the XDA guide I linked.
