[QUOTE=Giraffen93;45041849]well as long as i can use the s-pen it would work i guess
i really hate reinstalling stuff, my current windows install is nearing 5 years[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;45041292]then i'd need to redo all my settings anyway[/QUOTE]
Settings for what?
[QUOTE=Gran PC;45041867]not sure whether that thing works or not, sorry. guess you could just google it.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Sivics;45041900]Settings for what?[/QUOTE]
ui settings, application logins, personal files etc
i never change the look of my stuff, i want it to be the same as i had it 10 years ago if possible
Guys.
Want to fuck off from using iPhones, still using my iPhone 4 for 3 years, but it's time for a change because:
1) I use Gevey Sim, which requires jailbreak, which is not possible on the newer firmwares at the moment. (I'm still stuck at 4.3.3)
2) With 1) being said, I cannot install any new apps or games because they require AT LEAST iOS 5.
3) I got my first paycheck and I want to waste it wonderfully.
Been stuck with the idea of buying Samsung Galaxy S5. Are there any other viable choices which I should consider, or am I okay with going alone with Samsung? Help kindly appreciated!
The 4.4.3 Omni update has fucked my phone, can't turn wifi on and it won't recognise any fingers to the touch screen
I have to put my thumb on the touch screen and another finger to use the phone, on phone test software it only recognises one visible touch
Galaxy S5 is an okay choice, but from what I'm hearing around tech sites and such you may want to hold on for the LG G3.
I like where LG is going with the G3's UI.

It's a huge improvement over G2's UI.

I would recommend buying Titanium Backup. It backs up all apps and their data, it creates a flashable zip. So you can pretty much flash any rom you want and keep all your apps with their settings intact
Personal files don't need to be deleted even if you flash to a new rom.

Yeah you'd be an idiot to upgrade from the G2 to the G3 but duh
So, S5 is the way to go, or G3?
[QUOTE=Dark RaveN;45043197]So, S5 is the way to go, or G3?[/QUOTE]
They have the same specs but if you want less bloat and a better design go for the G3.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;45040506]Yeah I have the same issue on my S3 running Cyanogenmod. Fix is to run some script each time at boot.
Weird how the Nexus 5 has this problem since you can get a Nexus 5 through Rogers. Wonder how their tech support handles this one.[/QUOTE]
Apparently Rogers puts some firmware on the nexus 5 they get. Sure it's unlocked but there seems to be something Rogers does to them. Apparently Google or LG does it for them at the factory.
Rogers support did NOTHING. Go to customer service, they redirect you to IT support, from there I get directed to techxpert. This techxpert costs money and it isn't something they would be able to fix without doing rooting because it's probably against their policy to do. As in they would waste my time and money :v:
Oh I got disconnected from their support chat a bunch of times, stuck waiting to be transferred, the guy connects but doesn't say anything then disconnects, etc.
Amazon is having quite a nice deal for SD Cards if anyone needs one or two

I don't think there has been a time when SD cards weren't on sale.
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;45043228]I'd say Nexus 5 or HTC One M8 (Ace), or wait for I/O[/QUOTE]
Sorry for being retarded, but my Google is weak. What's an I/O? Some expo?
