    Root Root, yes. But what about ROMs?

    I understand we can root, and not ever likely going to unlock the bootloader. I see TWRP is available, and ROMs are being released. So, how is TWRP used for this phone? I thought we needed to unlock the bootloader to flash custom recoveries and therefore ROMs.

    OPO Camera discussion and pics

    So, after owning this fantastic supercomputer/phone/PDA/camera/navigation device for a little while, I am pleased to announce that I am in love. I love the camera on this thing. I had reservations before buying that it wouldn't really be an improvement over my S4, or it would just plain be a...

    Help Phantom Vibrate?

    For the entire time I have had my S4 (I think), it will "randomly" vibrate as though it is giving a mail/text notification. No notification is present, and I am sure it is really happening and it isn't that ghost vibration that can happen in your pocket when there isn't one happening (it has...

    Root [Verizon] Boot Animation and Audio Removable?

    I figured out that in System/Media you can remove (or better to just rename) the bootsamaung.qmp and bootsamsungloop.qmp and if you like, the shutdown.qmp and it gets rid of the boot/shutdown animations. I haven't bothered to measure to see if it actually speeds up the boot process, but it...

    why lock bootloaders?

    More specifically, why does HTC insist on locking them down more than say Sammy? They know we are eventually going to break the lock anyway, so it is nothing more than a pain in the arse that discourages us from buying HTC? I just don't get the logic there? Does anyone have a serious and...

    Root (APP) Reduce Lag IMMENSELY!!!

    Holy cow. Saw an article on the front page of AF about this app, and figured $1.50 was worth a try with the reviews I saw. I will say I am impressed! It's not like i all of a sudden have 2GB of RAM and a Quad core s4 pro processor, but I rebooted my phone, cleared the Cache and Dalvik, and...

    Root [Q] One folder for ringtones/notifications?

    Is there a way to combine all the "Ringtone", "Notification", and "Alarm" folders so that if I want to use a "Notification" for an alarm (for example), I don't need two copies of it on my sd?

    Slow xfer rate to pc by usb? SOLUTION!

    Well, sort of. When copying file to my Win7 pc from the N7, I was very frustrated with the very slow access to the files on the N7. The "Calculating the time required to transfer files" displayed by Win7 doubled (at least) the time it took to transfer the files when moving a bunch of files...

    Rave about it. The anti-rant thread.

    Just as it sounds, I wanted to make a thread I could come back to regularly and see positive thoughts flow instead of everyone's favorite, the complaint. I'll start! I love it when I'm going to bed, and I can swear I'm coming down with a cold, thinking that I'm going to wake up a ball of...

    Root Hot, bothered and data deficient

    Bought a Rez off eBay, fired it up and activated it. Seemed to work fine (GB is all I really noticed) so I Unlocked the bootloader with the all-in-one tool, flashed amon ra recovery, flashed su and perm root, then s-offed. With all my other phones (Eris and DInc2) that was the hard part. All I...
