Hey all, hope all is well.
First off, I am completely clueless when it comes to Androids because I am an iPhone user.
Anyway, I bought an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S4 (i337m) and was looking around the web trying to find tutorials/forums on how to enable AWS on this phone that is running the newest(?) version. I have been searching for about 2 1/2 hours now and can't find anything at all. Is there any possible way to make this happen?! I am trying to get the phone to work with Wind Mobile.
ANY help will be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Thank you

Hi all, I new here to the forum.
I understand my question might be INCREDIBLY redundant, but hopefully you guys won't take it to hard on me! I came from a GNex prior to purchasing my i9500 S4 this past week and I found no need to root my old gnex because I had no problems with it whatsoever. But of course, Samsung packs tons of bloatware which I would like to do away a few of them on the S4. My question is, can someone direct me or help me with what rooting is all about and how to do this properly? I understand rooting is to remove unnecessary amounts of bloatware off the phone and that could possibly increase performance/battery life on the phone, but I am incredibly unfamiliar with terms such as freezing, kernals, etc. I'm a super noob when it comes to the likes of this. I'd greatly appreciate anyone who could help out as I do not want to mess my phone up!

wasn't so difficult, right?
I bought a Samsung Focus for a friend, unlocked it and it works like a dream down in Mexico on Telcel. Liked it so much that my OCD kicked in and I bought 2 more. 2nd one is unlocked and traveling Europe with my senior parents. It's that easy.... Great little simple phone.
So. Focus #3 has been a bear. It's a Version 1.4 and it's still locked. No big deal, I can handle that later. The issue is that it was in a drawer for a year or so, and it was never updated. It's on W7. I cannot get it to update like the others. Through Zune. I get Error 80004005. After hours of scouring these forums and trying the solutions, no dice.
I have tried Windows 7 Uploader v.7.21. It goes through the motions, but doesn't go back to 7004. I then tried Ver. 7.05, and it says the 4K rom is not a retail ROM.
I'm out of ideas. Suggestions on how to flash this back to a point where I can then upgrade to 7.5? The phone is basically useless without the update. Maybe the posts are old and there are better/newer solutions?
Any help / direction would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Rob
Well hello first I'm new here I was an iPhone user so I'm having problems with the whole OS that is Android I don't understand anything here, I bought a Galaxy S4 (M919) from T-Mobile cause I wanted to try something different and I tought the Galaxy S4 was the right choice for me, I don't want to regret switching to Android mainly because almost all the apps I used on my iPhone are not on Android I have looked so much for like tweaks or stuff like that that I used to do on my iPhone with cydia but I can't find anything, almost all the themes I find are so ugly well I come here to find help and make understand all the capabilitites of Android.
So I bought my phone from T-Mobile paid full price for it to get it unlocked unfortunately they haven't helped at all with unlocking it, I found a guide here that was dialing a number to go on service mode and change some settings I have tried this method so many times and it hasn't worked I even accidentally deleted the backup on the last step, I'm so lost I would appreciate some help on this matter.
I have been looking for ROMs mainly to help on battery life and movings app to my sd card any recommendations on which ROM should I pick and some guide on how to install it.
Any help intoducing me on the Android OS would be gladly appreciated and thanks for reading this.
Hey all. I'm new to the forums and its been quite some time since i've owned an Android device. I've worked for Apple for a few years and recently decided to switch back to Android. At this point I'm re-familiarizing myself with the OS.
I used to be VERY involved with the "Jailbreak community" when I had my iOS device. And now I want to get to the same point I was regarding knowledge. First thing is to get this Note 3 "rooted" so I can do what I want with MY device.
Specs for my device:
Model number: SAMSUNG-SM-N900A
Baseband version: N900AUCUBMI9
At this point I really don't know what other information is needed to find what I need to make sure my "root" process is smooth. And yes, I have already searched the forum for both of those numbers above and found nothing. I guess the fact that it was released yesterday makes for nothing at this point. Please, anything would help my cause.
Thanks to everyone for your help in advance.
Hello guys i purchased a samsung galaxy note 4 to replace my S5 due to device issues. I loved my S5 it was rooted and had M.O.A.R rom loaded and worked great. No one huge issue i ja e and i looked all over the forums for it is that when im at work relaxing for a few hours i like to go on sites as streamturner and others like vodlocker but now the movie loads and just contines to move for minutes on end..... when i switched to the S5 and tried it it instantly loaded is it an issue with the note that makes it load up the whole movie first without playing? Please any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I am on the sprint network on lte, stock root! Thanks for your time fellas!
