[Q] New Zealand Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 4.2.2

Hi there!
I just bought my new phone recently. Went from iphone 4 to S4. Big improvement. I really love my new S4. One minor annoyance, though.
it is the bloatwares that are on my S4.
I want to root it and ONLY want to remove the bloatwares. I don't want to do anything else. I just want to be able to remove the bloatware as i don't find them useful and i could use extra space and make my phone snappy.
I am still learning my way around the website. I am sorry if this has been asked before.
Mind you, my baseband is i9505XXUBMG4 and android version is 4.2.2. I bought it unlocked.
I am bought it here in New Zealand. Most of the guides refer to phones being used in USA.
I would love a proper simple layman explanation. I would love to do a simple root just to REMOVE the bloatwares.
I am on a MAC btw. So i'd appreciate any root explanation using a MAC.
Hope this made sense. I appreciate any help! Thanks for bearing with me. cheers!
I too have a NZ S4, keep reading my friend. Probably the easiest way to debloat is to cf-root (search for it) and either uninstall apps with titanium backup (from the app store) or use the debloat aroma in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827817 if you need anymore help pm me

Please could someone either upload or PM me for an email to send me this!

Backup S4 touchwiz settings/folders etc and restore on S5

Hello all,
I have to find a solution for making a full backup of the S4 touchwiz/folders etc and restore on new S5.
Thank you very much.

Why do you want to restore s4 files on an s5? The s5 comes with its own touchwiz ya know
Take screen shots of what you have so you can replicate them on the S5. It's a very different look though

@thatsupnow: I don't want to restore the files from s4 to s5 but only the look.
@Painman1963: the screenshots are not useful because it's not my phone but the phone of my boss, so, I'll have to complete the 'operations' quickly e with a good result

[Q] Where do I start? New to XDA (Verizon S5)

I am being overwhelmed with all this information from this forum, so I wanted to try to make a thread to get more personal advice.
I own a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5. Where do I start?
I want a new ROM, preferable one with a lot less pre-loaded bloatware. I want to see my options. Where do I go after I just rooted with geohot's app?

Uploading LG backup to the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime

Hello.
Some time ago I made a backup of data from my old phone (LG L Fino) using LG PC Suite. When I wanted to upload data to my new phone (Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime), I couldn't do that. All of my apps were backupped in *.hapk format. Is there any possibility to retrieve my old data?
Thanks for any help!
