Samsung Galaxy S5

Famous last words! There is a great possibility to brick the phone if the power goes off. That is why you need quite a lot of battery life (at least 50%) and flash from a laptop or PC on UPS. Having said that, Sammy phones are renowned for being very difficult to brick and you really have to be a special kind of stupid.



If you're half way through the update, which requires you to boot into the update mode. I was referring to when Odin copies across, it won't. It happened to me last night and my phone is fine. During the actually update process different story. But still you can just boot back into the update mode and restore.

Agreed.
 
I always like the [-]over[/-] enthusiastic way you report on something new you discover or obtain
So much to like!

Sjoe, now my phone reads my Kingston 64GB SD card like a pro!! It's flippin fast.

Love the UI, even SwiftKey looks funky.

Anyways, I am still playing with my new toy. ;)
 
you like it? my reaction always is "what a retard"

Have you ever seen an infant's reaction to discovering something new like a taste a lemon or the texture of grass under their bare feet? It is life alerting and kingrob's reaction is kinda the same

And I firmly believe that is how it should be. ;)
 
Haha... It actually took a little bit longer than I expected. :eek:

Yea, it's pretty good, more under the hood than the prettyness.

Do not like all the white...

Fantastic! I just restored KK! WOOOOHOOOOO!

Can't stand the reminders to close cover and charging port. I hate seeing crap like s-finder and who knows what in the pull down menu. I don't mind the white, but I do mind that everything looks like KK apart from the recents menu.

/wishes for Google Play edition for SM-G900F for Christmas... I been a good boy

Hahaha.... It's not the end of the world!

My phone is super responsive and I like it. The multitasking card stack is also nicely done.

Google did a great job with Android 5.

Nope it's not... Nandroid FTW!

In KK the S5 is just as good except if you range the placebo pill

Google did a fantastic job with Lollipop! Problem is Samsung don't care and still manage to make it look KAAK!
 
I'm surprised you chaps aren't wiping and starting from a fresh install.
 
Installed latest android, it seems nice. I like the unified language for UI development.
