I don't understand your logic...bingo. 4.3" Android handsets are getting close but they aren't as small as the iPhones. And, yes, I do want a 3.5"-4" screen as the width of the screen matters for swyping etc.
I don't understand your logic...

Download that shit so we can try it co-op bitches!
Thanks I'll check that outIf you are serious about getting one. I can ask my China contact to get one for you.
I know they have one that used the exact screen the 4s used, I haven't checked recently and don't know if there is one with the real iPhone 5 screen.
You have search taobao.com with "iPhone high quality copy" in Chinese to find them lol.

That's because it isn't understandable.
Quick question for all of you guys/girls. I am on the fence of switching to android from the iphone due to the garbage that is called ios 7, but anyways, my question is this, I am having a hard time choosing between the HTC One or the S4. I want one that I can root and put stock android on if possible. I hate the skins on both, but have to trade in my iphone 5 and have no back up phone so I have to buy it from the att store or Bestbuy. Unfortunately neither sell the google play edition. So which one of these can I do that on the easiest?
My next question is since a lot of my music is on itunes I can just use double twist to move my music over to the phone using that app right?
Personally I like the HTC one's look better, but if it is way to confusing to put stock android on it compared to the S4, I am more then willing to sacrifice looks for usability.
SII is asking for a password and I don't know what it is. Can't do anything except dial emergency numbers. How boned am I?

I'm not familiar enough with either to give you a recommendation, but I think Samsung has the better record in terms of supported phones by the ROM community, which in turn means better support from unlocking bootloaders and rooting. I could be wrong about this. [edit] If you mean you want to immediately move copies over too your phone, you should be able to transfer them to an MSD card or connect your phone via USB and drag it into there, right? Or, you can use an app like Wifi File Explorer, connect to your phone via browser IP address and then transfer the music to your phone. Google Music should be able to pick up your local music files. I prefer the syncing to Google Music method better though. Then I pin the tracks or the playlists so that I have only my most listened to or favorite tracks downloaded to my device.Personally I like the HTC one's look better, but if it is way to confusing to put stock android on it compared to the S4, I am more then willing to sacrifice looks for usability.
You need to login to one google account for the play store. It needs an account to keep track of history and such. The browser I don't believe forces you to login.Got my first Android tablet as a gift.
Is there any way to use the Play Store without having it log into every Google service in existence? I didn't even find an option to not use my account for the browser, like you can on the Chrome desktop browser.

Hmm, the browser automatically signed into the Google account for me as soon as I had signed into Google Play, but I'm not sure if it's the vanilla Chrome/Android thingy or something custom for Samsung.You need to login to one google account for the play store.

Nothing particularly secret about by browsing habits, and the web history is already turned off the Google account itself. I just think it's a bit unnecessary to have all that junk running and possibly collecting personal information just because I want to install an app. Maybe it's as simple as logging out afterwards though?You can just use private browsing if you are worried abour pron ending up in your history.

Well, at the end of the day your best course of action is perhaps making a dummy Gmail account specifically for cases where you are forced to be logged in.
Should be simple enough, just some random address that you'll remember. You could even use a temporary email account like Mailinator to set it up if you're that concerned about privacy. Not much they can gather from you if you follow this route.
I created a dummy account, logging into the dashboard on the web it shows I have an Android device, Gmail, and Google Talk (I'm guessing that's the chat thing that is/was built into Gmail earlier). Interestingly enough, web history was disabled by default.As far as I'm aware, every single Google service I've ever installed will ask me to verify if I want to link it to my account, including Chrome. If you've somehow linked them without knowing it, you can just go into your settings > accounts > and then turn off all account sync options. That doesn't decouple your account links, though. But like I said earlier, I've never had a Google service auto log into my account with asking me to verify account association first.
What does the screen look like?
Looks like my lock screen. Has my wallpaper in the background and is showing the time. The phone is still connecting to my WiFi and has received a message. There is a text entry field in the middle of the screen and when I tap it the keyboard pops up. There is an 'Emergency Call' button at the bottom with my provider just above that.
Does android device manager let you change your lock screen password?

.Your new password was not strong enough
Try this, because I'm supposing it's not the SIM card lock?
Glad you got it sorted, things like that can be the scariest shit ever.Update: I'm an idiot. I forgot I had prey installed and that was what was asking me for the password. Logged into prey from my laptop and got it sorted. Thanks for the help guys!
Samsung Galaxy S4Mini Reviewcoulda been written better, and more thought out, but whatever I'm tired
Nah, you want an iPhone that runs Android. There are phones that size with better PPI, and there are phones with that size screen that are smaller devices.What's so hard to understand? I want a tiny device with a tiny screen.
So the CyanogenMod Installer beta looks pretty cool. Makes you wish Google would release something like that to install stock Android on any phone.

That would piss Samsung off pretty hardcore, and TBH I'm surprised they were even able to convince them to make Google Play Editions.
I'm late to this party, but is Amazon Kindle Fire HDX #SHOTSFIRED on other Android tablets? 2560x1600 resolution and quad-core Snapdragon 800 for $379?
i switched from SERO to SERO P years ago, it was definitely worth it.So I have a dilemma in my hands now. I am with sprint, have been with them for about 10 years now. I'm grandfathered into the SERO plan and pay about 30 (35 with tax) bucks a month now. My plan includes unlimited data, unlimited text, 500 day time minutes, nights starting at 7PM. I have an LG Rumor phone, which is pretty crappy and not a smartphone. On top of that, my job allows me to have a phone where I could pay about 6-10 bucks a month if I use my work phone as my personal phone as well. I would rather keep it separate, especially because you never know when you might leave and go to a new job. The problem is, I went to Sprint to see my upgrade options and I would have to change from SERO basic to SERO premium (extra $10/month) and add a 4G plan ($10/month), that would bring the total to $50.
I want to keep both my work phone (iphone) and get a droid for my personal one, but man, I don't know if I want to go from $35/month to about $58/month. I looked and $50 for unlimited everything seems to be as good as it gets in the US, so it's either that or cancelling the contract (which would then mean I wouldn't be eligible for it if I tried to sign up again).

Nah, it's still Amazon software and the build quality is probably still a step down from the Nexus line. What's the battery life like?
Meh, Bootloader unlocking IMO absolutely should void your warranty. If I want to tinker with my shit, let me, at the expense of not having it covered if I fuck it up.
My only issue is when I'm not allowed to trade my warranty for the freedom to do whatever I want with my hardware. I'm not out to screw anyone over by unlocking my phone, busting it, then expecting the manufacturer to cover the costs of my screwups. That's not their fault its mine. I don't think I'm entitled to fuck up flashing a ROM then having the carrier or OEM foot the bill for that.
why should bootloader unlocking get them out of repairing faulty headphone jacks, charge ports, defective panrels, batteries, etc, especially now with sealed batteries on so many handsets...
plus that detects ROOT, not even bootloader unlocking!
