what is officially considered jellybean? 4.2.1? I lost track a while ago

4.1 and 4.2 is JB
4.0.x is ics

HDMI out to a tv and I was able to get all my information pulled from the phone (recent calls/text messages). Then I bought a Galaxy SIII…

Some of my work bros wrote a book it will be coming out in a few months - http://www.amazon.com/dp/111860864X

If anyone’s parents are on verizon, I’ll pay all fees to steal their upgrade and throw in some $$$. They can take over my samsung galaxy nexus or swap back to their current phone. I’ll make it worth the time, PM me!

Basically I want a S4 and do not want to lose my unlimited data, so I can’t even buy a damn phone from them at full retail.

You won’t lose your unlimited data if you buy a phone from Verizon at full retail

On a side note, I’m considering the s4 and have a note 2 (on Verizon) right now if anyone is interested, I need to unload it.

will not lose your unlimited data if you purchase full retail… also payment plan now so you can spread the payments over a 12 month period if you wish to do so. you probably wont have a happy salesperson as they wont get paid a damn thing if you purchase a phone at full retail so try doing it over the phone with customer service

Some more phone hacking stuff from the guys at work

Just picked up an S4 on wednesday, so far so good. Did have to change and loose my unlimited, but after looking at mine and my wife’s usage over the past years, it won’t be a problem, we barely used 1G let alone more, so we went with 6Gb plan and our bill stayed exactly the same.

Only reason I kept it at 6 and not lower is because I can now teather my ipad. I doubt we’ll have an issue.

As for the phone, so far it’s a HUGE upgrade from what I had (Droid Charge). Slowly figuring it out, but I love it so far.

I killed my razr maxx at a concert in the rain…Anybody have one that they’d like to get rid of or something else of similar vintage?

Well the Google Unlimited Music has been working pretty well for me. A small but helpful feature is, on your phone if you view the Google Play Music app in the app store it will tell you when you will be next charged for your subscription. Listening to the Portugal the Man album that came out yesterday on it.

Its the same thing as spotify with out a windows/osx app officially supported.

been trying both out, and I think spotifys radio feature is better. also I really like the support of “apps” within spotify.

I tried to use Spotify as my main music player. The interface just sucks too hard on it. Spotify might have the edge on selection though. There are a lot of rare metal bands that Google doesn’t have.

Ok, have a question for everyone; related to this board, my phone, and Tapatalk

Samsung S4, tapatalk installed. For some reason the “new posts” are not working correctly on both the phone and computer. It appears to be auto pulling or logging in, so when I click new posts, it only shows posts from the last 30 minutes give or take; even though I haven’t looked at the site on the computer or opened tapatalk for 12-18 hours and there’s tons of other posts that I haven’t seen.

Any ideas?

Now that you mention it, I believe I may be seeing the same behavior.

Have either of you tried the Tapatalk 4 HD yet?

Nope, still on the older version, 3 i think.
