As of this upcoming Monday I will no longer be an S4 GPE user. However, I figured I'd leave current and potential users with the following two nuggets of information.
1. The camera has vastly improved lately due to the 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 updates as well as updates to the camera app. The shutter...
I know that this forum doesn't see much traffic anymore, but I'll continue to post until I ditch the phone :)
Received the 4.4.3 OTA on Tuesday. I've included a screenshot of the update. It weighs in at 156MB, which is larger than most of the Nexus update, I believe. I'll try to keep a running...
As some of you know, Google released their separate camera app today. Users of Nexus and Google Play Edition devices will see this as an "update" to their current app when you open the Play Store. So, unlike OEM variants, you won't be running two cameras side by side if you download this. Before...
Just wanted to share.
Samsung Open Source Release Center
If you NEED to see it yourself, it's under mobile phones. Update is "ML4."
EDIT: Update is now live. I didn't get it, but someone had to!
Got it a few hours ago. More bad than good is my initial impression, but it's too soon. Lots of instability, especially with issues related to photos/videos stored on the phone. Both the Gallery and Google Photos apps crash like mad.
I'm going to do a factory reset, as I'm overdue for that...
My last four phones have been;
Nokia E71 (OEM unlocked)
HTC Droid Incredible (Verizon, and I was a ROM developer)
Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 (OEM unlocked)
Samsung Galaxy S4 GPe GT-i9505G (OEM unlocked)
So, I've had a nice range of smartphone cameras. For video, the S4 GPe beats all...
This works on the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 (both), Nexus 10, Nexus 4 and HTC One GPE as well, and countless other devices running version 4.2.x or 4.3. No root, software, or USB action needed, just a few taps in the right places.
One of the features that I missed from my S2 was the forced GPU...
Google has begun pushing out the OTA for the S4 and One GPE models as of last night. This is 9 days after announcement and at a time when most Nexus owners still have not received the update. That is pretty much a simultaneous push.
I've heard of a few changes for our model. Confirmed changes...
EDIT: This bug has been fixed in the 4.3 OTA. This post is now for informational purposes only.
---------------------------------------
So I've confirmed today that there is in fact an LTE issue with the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition, and thankfully, it's software based. Hopefully, Google...
Since updating to KK2, I noticed a few issues that I didn't previous have or notice;
-yellow/brown screen tint on left (I know that this is a common issue)
-random reboots nearly every day
-since it's not UK firmware, some non-English apps that I don't use anyway
-could no longer connect...
I noticed that we don't have a Motorola RAZR forum (like we did with the Milestone devices), so I wanted to see if anyone here has imported the RAZR for use on AT&T. Specifically, I want to know if their IMEI database detects it as a dumbphone (like most unlocked global models). A friend of mine...
