Random Thought Thread

From what I've read, I can only use safe strap recovery and I can only flash a rom that is based on my current jellybean 4.2.2 TouchWiz build..... No custom recovery=no custom rom :(
 
Have you looked at XDA Forums? It seems there is some development of non-stock firmwares there, including a Cyanogen Mod for it. Make sure you are looking at the correct model number before trying anything, though.
 
Oh it's a Verizon S4, that one might be particularly locked down, just a guess. I've only really had experience of the the i9500. and the i9508 which is a "TD" version for China Mobile. All easily rooted and hacked. Don't think the S4s have Knox in this country.

Why is Verizon so tight on rooting? I mean I've rooted now 6 devices from Sprint.... HTC one m8 HK , nexus 6, nexus 9(tablet), galaxy note 2 ,and 3 and most recently the newer lg g pad( tablet). I find excellent guides for each device and was able to root and load custom Roms on all but the nexus 6 and note 2. And that is only because I rooted to remove the crap wear from the note 2, nexus I rooted just so I could use wake lock detector.( neither phone was mine there my aunts who isn't techy at all! )

Because Verizon = Satan
 
I find it interesting there are so many radio & tv commercials here in MN, with either an Australian (not even counting Outback Steakhouse) or English voice-over. I wasn't aware we had a lot of Aussies & Brits here... :rolleyes:

I also suspect most (if not all) of those accents are fake, which ever so slightly grinds my gears.
 
blahaha! Hubby say's his techie convention thing is a big hipster nerd herd of people talking about their "X" product and apps etc.and how it's going to change the world!!
if he and his co nerds only knew..that they are actually one of them!:)

Should be a nice change of pace from hearing that Minn-a-soot-a accent all day. :p

Some American actors and voice-over artists may not be fully aware of how UK accents should sound, or can do them correctly.
