[Q] HTC One vs Galaxy S4 - General Questions and Answers

I recently purchased the S4 and have been fairly happy with it except for Verizon are morons and locked the bootloader for most. I keep hearing how great the HTC One is now and I'm beginning to question my decision and whether I should sell mine and get the One or keep this? Would love some ppl's input on their experiences with both.
Thanks! :good:

I've heard some reports of bad build quality on the HTC One's for Verizon. People basically on the opposite situation as you who had the HTC One and are returning it for the S4.

I would stick with the s4 as well.

Any comparisons go here, this thread had been made tons of times! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2229761

Loving this place :) i9003 forum is awesome

I own both the phones i9003 and i9100g. The forum and people here in i9003 place are really awesome. It gives a very homely feeling here. The developments are going on really fast, guys support you here no matter what. I am really missing this environment in the i9100g forum. The main difference between these forums are the members and their spirit. Here in i9003 are spending their sweat to make this device really better in all possible ways and turn good whatever this device or platform has negative things as compared to some better phones. While in i9100g place people are sweating in fighting out whether this phone is crap or not and just looking towards the negativity which the hardware platform has created and no one is pushing for perfecting the device.
I am really thankful to all the developers for perfecting the device, senior members for helping out people like me and all the members for keeping that fighting spirit fabric very strong throughout the forum.

Absolutely agree about i9003 forum. People here are so understanding
Despite the fact, that I have my SGSL for six months, I registered here only yesterday, and already got answers on few my questions.

It is the reason why it feels so homely here because you know whom to ask or who can answer you out of the problem

I know the feeling. Got shocked at how serious the people over at the sgs2 section. People get easily pissed, people asking the same question without reading, even codeworx was pissed with some users over there because of people always complaining about battery life even if cm9 is still experimental blah blah blah. Here, it seems to be peaceful and quiet

[Q] Thinking of buying the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

Hello,
My HTC HD2 is letting me down at a lot of points. Therefore I'm thinking of buying a new handset.
I do a lot of internetting and multitasking on my phone. Therefore a dual-core processor is a must for me.
I've read up reviews of the handset and it seems to perform quite well.
What do you guys think, should I go for it or shouldn't I?
Also, if I don't like TouchWiz, is there a possibility to installing MIUI on it? I have that on my HTC HD2 right now and I love it.
Thanks!
Hey,
This should be in teh Samsung Galaxy Ace forum. That way, you will get advice from previous owners.
Alternatively, you could put it in the Device suggestions list written by KC.
You could PM a mod and he will help you with moving it.
Just some advice to get you going.
Thanks
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry for my late reply.
Got a HTC One S instead as you can see below, love it!
This topic can be solved/closed if it were me

[Q] Premium Suite on VZW?

So I'm a little confused about what the Premium Suite is, but an article on cnet I just read makes it seem like the UK is getting it as a free update to the GS3 (I can't post a link because I'm "new")
Anyone have any idea if we are getting this on Verizon?
No one knows one way or the other. The best we can do is wait for some word from Samsung. A better question would be if the SGS3 will be officially getting 4.2 at all (even international) because we'd have a better chance of receiving that. That's my speculative theory anyway.

I was wondering about this, too. However, being that it's Verizon, we'd probably be getting it three months after everyone else did.

On average, Verizon trails 6 months on updates. The S3 JB update was one of the fastest ever...
I'm just hoping that it can be incorporated into custom roms.

If it comes to one of the other 3 carriers I'm sure it can be.

Of course not. Samsung, with it's IMMENSE marketing budget/strategy will again remain the largest seller of mobile phones this year. Without any doubt.
That being said, sincerely hope a more premium S5 will be released as the current one does not make me giddy in any way whatsoever
There is a thread in this section for "other" device discussion. Otherwise, we do have a Galaxy S5 forum.

Goodbye my friends !

Unfortunately this is the announcement that I just bought a Galaxy S4 mini I9195, so my posts on this forum will be rare, but not inexistent.
My new baby: Galaxy S4 Mini
I learned a lot with you guys and breakup from S Advance is quite heavy, and this is the reason why I opted for a similar phone in size.
I hope you are all ok and developers to reach stable ROMs.
Sincerely,
Razvan
PS: I just received and opened the box phone, and first thing is rooted and custom kernel. Isn't weird? :angel:
Wow... Hope someday well see you here again. Thanks for all of your works...
Good luck on your new unit.

Don't forget that my girl has s advance, after 10 may she will buy S4 and I will repair mine. The good thing is that I can continue to develop on s advance too because she will give me her actual device, just wait.
Mine is a temporary goodbye, not "forever goodbye" :victory:
