    Root [International] TW based ROMs ?

    I would prefer AOKP and tried so far the original AOKP, C-ROM, CM11, IOAP, Resurrection, I haven't tried BOBCAT, X-Note or Alliancerom yet (X-Note is TW based I think anyway), but I wonder what else is out there. There are SOME features I wouldn't want to miss, but I would still prefer...

    Help Google keyboard Mail app bug?

    I noticed something strange. I first thought is the phone but it seems it is related to the app itself (keyboard that is). When using the default mailing app and the Google keyboard,the cursor seems to jump randomly through the body of the mail. When I intend to delete a single character...

    Do I have the LTE version ?

    Just wondering, how do you find out if you got the LTE version of the N3 (UK Version) ? Or does it say it on the box as well ? I ordered online (from scan.co.uk) but the price seems too good to be true so I wonder if you can find out whether it is the LTE version without taking their word for...

    Text notifications on lock screen ? (4.3)

    What is the deal? How the hell do they work. Even with turned off multi widgets, they seem to activate when you try to swipe the notification (or click it). You can swipe them, click them and all that happens is the lock screen turns into 'widget mode' (can't explain really). Random bashing...

    Knox has one big advantage - I kinda like it

    Non-Rooted Google Edition Rom

    Is there such a thing ? I am on MH8 now so I prefer not to root until such point there is a workaround (like Triangle Away) for the Knox Warranty counter. Would still love to have the GE ROM so I am wondering if that is even possible without rooting ..

    Carmount for S4 with UAG case ?

    I now bought a few generic car mounts which supposed to work with all phones but the S4 is too wide with the case to open them up enough. Well, the three I tried anyway - can anyone recommend a car mount which works with the Urban Armour Gear ones ?

    I have downloaded and flashed the Samsung stock rom for the S3 and used triangle away. Now the device doesn't show as modifed, the counter is 0, SuperSU is gone, but Mobile Odin is still there and as it looks like - it became a System App and cannot be uninstalled - WTF ? I factory reset /...

    Anyone used this before ? PowerGen 12000mAh I am commuting with my S3 and watch a lot of movies (or my N7 for that matter). Whilst big internal batteries might last a bit, I don't like the added thickness so I got this one instead. I will report back in a few days how long this one...

    I also posted this in the S4 forum as it applies for both really. Maybe some S3 veteran can help me out :) Does anyone know if the 3 Version comes branded (3 - Bloatware) and can you simply flash the international ROM stock rom ? I presume the Service Menu tricks to unlock the phone won't...

    S-View Cover - faulty or really just sh** ?

    Colleague got the S-View cover and is appalled how bad it is. I had a look and it really is rubbish. I wonder if this is a faulty cover or a design flaw. Basically it switches the screen off / funny stat view on, but it doesn't seem to close properly. Compared to the iPad Smart Cover, where...

    Better sound quality through Bluetooth ?!?

    My car stereo doesn't have BT so I got myself a Kinivo BTC450. Which by the way is awesome. Anyway, I noticed that the sound is absolutely fantastic, compared the direct AUX connection. I usually listen to di.fm in the car and the free membership gives you a lower quality but with that...
