actually just noticed the video is very choppy, tbh i just want it for the Photosphere so i dont mind at all

Yeah something wrong with it. Even though its set to 1080p the video is all pixelated in the view finder.

Maybe some incompatibility

I have an S4 clone so hoping the settings are the same! Under Settings, Notifications, Default Notification, you can set your own tone. However, this tone is used for both incoming e-mail and text messages. I don't want it for e-mail as I'm persecuted every time I get new mail :mad:. Is there any way of adjusting this? Can't do it from the settings screen. Is there a way around it?

This doesn't really have any relevance here though as your device is not a Samsung Galaxy S4.

She never claimed it was. She clearly stated it was a clone but was hoping the settings were the same. How about trying to be helpful rather than pointing out the obvious.

Anyone have tips on cleaning the touchscreen?

You can change the GMail email notification in the app, I have the same notifications for all IMs and a different one for emails.

Bit of breath fog and the back of your t shirt works great for me

They are 531.91 Euro on amazon + 3.50 for parcel motel. Might be cheaper somewhere else, but if there's issue Amazon's customer care is top notch

Mmm the bold capped writing saying do not flash on your S4...

DUBLINHITMAN · 29-06-2013 01:38AM

I recently came from the iPhone after many years of owning them I decided just to jump ship
and since I've had the s4 I'm sorry I didn't jump sooner
and im not much of a techy fella so getting used to the s4 was a bit hard
and that just shows that the iPhone is idiot proof in comparison
every time I use the wifes or have to answer it, actually feel like a kids phone
I probably haven't answered any of your questions above but its just my thoughts
hope it helps on your decision

Bring it back to the place you bought it, might be more expensive but at least it will done by Sammy trained staff. You'll keep your warranty and have a good come back if any other faults develop. There's way too many threads on boards of Chinese shops ****ing up

Is there anyway to transfer your playlists in itunes to the S4?

evolutionqy7 · 30-06-2013 01:35AM

Is it possible to install this rom without an SD card? I'm desperate for this ROM and I'm waiting for an SD card to arrive from Amazon

Ouch. Don't think I can afford €180.
May have to sell it as damaged.
How much is it worth with a cracked screen.

I flashed it from my SD card but clock work mod recovery had the option to flash ROMs from both memories

One thing I'm having a bit of bother with is installing clockworkmod onto the phone? Have you a link you can pm me? Would really appreciate it.

I picked up the latest version from the thread above, put phone into download mode, open Odin, select the CWM file and press start.

Takes about 15 seconds.

Thats as far as my help goes, search and read XDA threads, there's 1000's of guides so no need to rewrite them.

I've stupidly soft bricked my S4 messing around in CWM without the SD card and now I need to reinstall the stock firmware for it. Do you know where I can do this/get the stock firmware from? I'm with 3 Ireland.

Found these last week, all Galaxy S4 problems to be fixed is €141. I emailed them and they confirmed that its 140 to fix a completely shattered screen.

I dont know how reputable they are tho but someone else on here might know?
