Almost! Samsung and HTC played a bit of their own flair into the OS. that's why you can still use flip cover as per normal s4. still waiting for latest updates from Xda.  thumbup.gif

yup.. flip cover still working though.. sweat.gif sweat.gif
but the smoothness is the main part.. flex.gif
no bloatware plus, ROM less than 400mb while TouchWiz ROM almost 2GB.. thumbup.gif

but all the gimmicky TW features are not working right? How about IR blaster? Also not working?
*
yup.. all features from TW (air gesture, air view, smart pause, smart scroll,multi windows, TW camera) are not working..

those who like pure android will love the 4.3 ROM of GE.. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

it is great to have the pure android experience, but then u lose the features of a S4.

for me (at least for me), i would choose smoothness of pure android compared to those gimmick.. tongue.gif
now s4 is a really great device. can choose between TW or GE.. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

what would be the best launcher you would recommend? My first phone was iphone then windows. first time android user so I dont know much. always thought you had to root to change stuff like launcher (evidence of how ios is so constrictive. need to jailbreak to customize anything hehe) thanks for the reply! I'll google for some good launchers too but personal experience always better than reviews from internet  biggrin.gif
*
for me.. nova is the best, smoothest launcher..
but right now, if u bought S4 LTE version, it will be special.
bcoz u can choose between fully TOUCHWIZ or fully GOOGLE EDITION.. flex.gif flex.gif

QUOTE(Xirality @ Jun 30 2013, 01:39 AM)
Anyone can introduce some case? Need minimalistic and no flip case. If can better transparent
*
i like sgp neo hybrid.. make the phone become more premium feel.
but, also like ultra slim casing.. really nice.. icon_idea.gif icon_idea.gif

+1 for sgipen neo hybrid. I use it together with Glas.Tr sp and the result is excellent. can really display the screen quality with the oil resistance akin a matt sp.

yeah!! im using neo hybrid together with the free screen protector included in the noe hybrid..
all i can say, its perfect!! flex.gif

So which one u prefer using on overall?
Single core> dual core> quad core.. Octa core is what?
Gpu ...dunno which better..not much difference i guess?
Internal memory not a problem as both support m.card
Audio.. Important
Battery important too..is it much different? Can use i9505 battery on i9500?
*
octa core is actually 2xquadcore.. but put in mind it only run quadcore in a time..
battery is the same, but the i9505 usage is better..

n also if u are addicted to flashing rom or modding, go for i9505 as it is more friendly developer.. icon_idea.gif

Once ge rom out for i9500, babai tw brows.gif

yeah! hopefully developer can fix all the bug..
i think main bug is phone call..
other such as graphical, email, mms, etc..

QUOTE(playxboxwii @ Jul 2 2013, 08:17 PM)
I think its more than enough
So whats the point putting 2xquadcore?
Not really on flashing.. I think the main difference is lte ..
Think gonna get i9500 .. Price attractive now
*
the point is when in idle mode, it use lower quadcore (also when browsing, texting, etc)
but when u r gaming, it use higher quadcore processor.. biggrin.gif

i own i9500 and i9505.. personally i like i9505.. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
