texazzpete: The very definition of an immature fanboy. You've got a Desire S and you're here bragging about how the Samsung Galaxy S4 is better than the iPhone 5!
I'm not here to trade words with you...you're not even in the same league with the likes of 4llerbuntu or bigrovar who I have many stimulating discussions with.

Now i see i dumb you are! Yes and yes. i use a DESIRE S. If i cld explore my DS dan ur GALAXY NOTE 2. Then shut up and continue the show-off.

Can you pls give me list of devices you have! BigMan!!!

10 Ways Samsung's Galaxy
S4 Is Better Than The
iPhone 5

Samsung
announced
its latest
flagship
phone, the
Galaxy S 4 earlier this month
in New York.
Critics have been going wild
because the Galaxy S 4 is
real competition to Apple's
iPhone 5 .

The Galaxy S 4 is packed
with the latest hardware and
software features like a 13
megapixel camera, eye
tracking technology, and
even a way to use the phone
without touching the screen.
While the iPhone 5 is still an
impressive smartphone, it
doesn't hold a candle to the
Galaxy S 4.
The Galaxy S 4 is
faster than the
iPhone 5.

Samsung's Galaxy S 4
has a quad-core
processor compared
the the iPhone 5's
dual core processor.
Primate Labs ran a
benchmark test pitting
the Galaxy S 4 against
other top tier
smartphones including
the iPhone 5.
The results show that
the Galaxy S 4 is
almost two times
faster than the iPhone
5.

The Galaxy S 4's
screen is bigger.

The Galaxy S 4's
screen measures a
whopping 5-inches.
That's a full inch more
screen real estate than
the Phone 5. A bigger
screen means more
apps on one page,
more space for videos,
and higher quality.

The Galaxy S 4 has
better camera
software.

Software aside, the
Galaxy S 4 packs a
whopping 13
megapixel camera,
compared to the
iPhone 5's eight
megapixel camera.
The Galaxy S 4's
camera has a bunch of
software features that
will make any amateur
look like a
professional. It's easier
to take pictures and
edit them on the go.
Pictures stand out with
features like, photo
blur, which allows you
to erase people or
things from a photo
and Share Shot, which
lets you sync your
friends' Galaxy S
phones together to
share photos.
There are many more
camera features that
you can read about
here.

The Galaxy S 4 is
more versatile.

The Galaxy S 4 has the
latest version of
Android, which by
nature is a more
customizable operating
system than Apple's
iOS.
But besides making
phone calls and
downloading apps, the
Galaxy S 4 can be
used as a remote for
your compatible
Samsung TV.
Forbes Haydn
Shaughnessy of Forbes
points out, "on the S4
microsite Samsung
says the phone
'suggests different
programs based on
your preferences,
provides program
schedules, and does
the channel surfing for
you. The Samsung
GALAXY S4 even
allows you to remotely
control the TV or setup
boxes.'"

The Galaxy S 4 is
available on all
major carriers
including T-Mobile.

The iPhone has yet to
make its debut on T-
Mobile, leaving some
customers out in the
dark.
The Galaxy S 4 has a
sharper screen.
The iPhone 5's Retina
Display pushes out an
astounding 1136x640-
pixel resolution at 326
pixels per inch.
But, Samsung used an
HD Super AMOLED
screen and beefed up
the resolution on the
Galaxy S 4 to a
impressive 1920x1080
at 441 pixels per inch.

Google Now is light-
years better than
Siri.

This is an Android
feature but is still
counts as a reason the
Galaxy S 4 is better
that the iPhone 5.
Google Now is a
personal assistant that
comes included with
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
It uses all the
information available
in your smartphone to
provide you with
relevant information.
For example, your
phone knows the
route you take home
and if there is traffic it
will prompt you to go
a faster way.
If you're about to take
a flight, Google Now
prompts you to check
in and even gives you
weather in the
destination city.
Siri just can't compete.

The Galaxy S 4 has
more memory
contributing to the
overall quickness of
the phone.

The Galaxy S 4 is
packed with 2 GB of
RAM. That means you
can run more apps at
once, have more tabs
open in your browser,
and it just contributes
to the overall
quickness of the
smartphone.
The iPhone 5 runs on
half of that, only using
1 GB.

The Galaxy S 4 has a
removable battery!

A removable battery
means that when your
phone is running low
you don't have to stay
tethered to a plug.
Samsung even sells an
extra battery kit
allowing you to get
some extra juice in a
hurry.
Users can expand the
Galaxy S 4's storage.
If you don't want to
shell out the extra
money for a 64 GB
Galaxy S 4, you can
expand the smaller
sizes (16GB and 32GB)
with a MicroSD card.
You can also save data
to the MicroSD instead
of your actual phone's
memory.

I hope and pray some iFanboys can see this, make xtra research and stop coming here to yahn opat. PLS READ. Dont be an iSlave. Get freedom.
...
Theres google, use it. Its FREE!!! Be informed, Be enlightened. Dont come here and brag. We learn new things everyday! Learn!!!
...
I'm talking to you... lmao!!!
Yes you!!!

Theres google, use it. Its FREE!!! Be informed, Be enlightened. Dont come here and brag. We learn new things everyday! Learn!!!
...
I'm talking to you... lmao!!!
Yes you!!!

You think watching a product ads today and buying the device the next d@y means You know beta? smh!!!
...
Some peeps would pay a tech savvy thousands of naira for something that requires codes and tricks.
Would come here,hiding behind texts and yarning rubbish like 'they tested the new device for a comp'
Get a life joor!

texazzpete: So it's ok to assume I haven't 'explored Android enough' yet when I tell you that I most likely started using Android devices before you, you freak out?

Oya tell us how you've 'explored Android' in ways others haven't . Nonsense.

Freak out? Sorry!!! Only playing the bigger and more sensible one of us both. So you want me to start posting when i started using mobile fones here? No nah! i get sense nah! Bro. Lets just trash this talk n move on! You knw they say filled up vessel would make less noise, unlike the empty ones (in which category i think you fall in) that would make the loudest noise.
...
Peace!

NOTICE ERR'ONE.
I never said i used an android phone before anyone here and neither did i boast of exploring the device than anyone. Cos some GOOGLE PARTNERS has started telling us They used the android before anyone.
...
All i'm saying!!!
If you had OR can explore an ANDROID devîce like i have done. You would reveal its power .
....
SOME PEEPS NEEDS TO SHED THEIR OLD BRAINS AND DEVELOPE NEW ONES. Thanks for. reading.

texazzpete: I was using an Android phone before you and probably everyone else even dreamt of using one. I had the original G1, got the HTC MyTouch for my wife. In 2008/2009!

I have 'explored' Android much more than you have...you people think it's by following tutorials on rooting and then downloading pirated games on your phones? Smh.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both sides of the divide. You know how I solve the problem? Getting both. Simple and short.

Meditate on this.
EMPTY VESSELS MAKES THE LOUDEST NOISE
Do you know me in person? Your answer is NO!
Then how do you knw i didnt get an Android phone before u or not. smh.
You said you had explored android than i did?
The only way i wld agree is upload an app with you username as the title.
...
Just opening your mouth and ranting trash!
Pls go grow up. I'm sure you had share with android sef.

texazzpete: I can do all that with my Galaxy Note 2...which is exponentially more powerful than your 'china phone'. Your point?

Fine! You got both devices and you havnt discovered which heads the other? I guess you havnt xplored android enuff.

texazzpete: Don't be dramatic. You don't 'control your world' with Android.

Far more developers have iOS as the lead platform for app development...so most apps come to iOS FIRST and sometimes don't show up on Android.

Whatsapp is 0.99 dollars. Less than N160. WTF, why do you people always INSIST on making Android look like a platform of stingy cheapskates? As far as i know, Whatsapp is not free on Android permanently. It's free for a limited time and then you'll have to make a 99 cents payment.

You CAN share some files with other users, just no ALL files and not over Bluetooth. Sucks for some people, some others couldn't care less.

I still can't get over the 'silly arrogant useless fools' line when referring to an app that costs 99 cents. WTF is wrong with you?!

Sir.. Whatsapp is free for the first year of download. Even if its N50. Its FREE for all other platforms, why should dy give a charge for what's suppose to be free. 2. in terms of apps, Not all apps wld be made for all platforms. There are apps that are availabĺe for apple and not for others and vice versa. But talking bout who got the most stunning app? Android! why? cos its an open platform. if you think you can do something for it. FEEL FREE! Should u havnt heard, android got the HIGHEST number of apps. Pls google. twas 40million the last time i checked. And developers havnt stopped.
...
Lets do something. Make researches... Name mad stunning app apple got. Would let you knw what the GREEN ROBOT got in its box. *winks*

Abid786: Hi gyes i want to install torch camera flash light and i want tha at night my mobile's camera flash should work as a torch light please give me this software for my Q mobile A8 i have already installed two related softwares but one of them was screen colour and light changing software and other did not work. Please i want a torch light software with camera flash.

just search. flashlight in the Android market.

KazaaUpload: The statistics tell us that anybody on here that says the iPhone is crap vs the Samsung, is in the minority, because despite everything, the iPhone 5 is still the biggest selling phone with just three models, despite the fact that Samsung are bringing out a new device like almost every week.
My opinion why iPhone is better;
- the biggest apps ALWAYS come to iPhone first. Check history and you will see
- android is the most insecure OS there is today. Buggy and not secure.
- iTunes still has largest media collection
- easy to back up into the cloud with iCloud built in
- if my iPhone breaks or I need ANY support whatsoever, I can walk into any Apple store in The world an it gets sorted (I appreciate that this doesn't happen in Naija tho)
- video compression over email
- updates to OS are quicker and more frequent
- classier phone (glass, vs the plastic on the S3 and S4)
- thinner and lighter. If I need a massive screen I will buy a tablet, not a phone
- better speaker
- iTunes U: free app with one of the largest collection of free education tools on the web

These are just opinions, and are my opinions. But again, judging by sales alone most people still prefer te iPhone over The galaxy, even though galaxy is cheaper. That says something

hmmm... I dnt knw what to say here. Have you googled these devices at all? Pls do. Imagine a phone dat wont allow its users share files with other platform user!!! IT SUCKS !!! They should just make iWorld so their fans can go live there.
...
Îmagine a cross-platform app (Whatsapp), free to all xcept apple. Stupid useless arrogant fools. (i know some peeps wld attack and call me poor... dont u peeps think?) Android, being an open source os, has the most number of stunning apps.(pls dnt ask me for examples Google is our friend)
...
An os open for you to p!mp to your own taste,what else could be great. Unlike the imprisoned iUsers. Even RIM still beta small.
....
Get an Android device, root it, you control your own world.

[size=16pt] An app!!! [/size]

biolabee: In addition, can we have an Unfollow button at the bottom of the page just like the Go Up instead of having to go up

Can we have a quick reply box already at the bottom of the page instead of having to click Reply

The bolded would be Great!!!

thelastPope: I disagree. I know seun has asked for app programmers. But I will beg him to thread carefully. Mobile chat app is the opposite of NL. If you turn NL to mobile chat app, NL is done. Sometimes, you have to do a good business analysis before you make a move. Yahoo made the same mistake and the rest is history. Seun, don't do a NL chat app. You can do a chat app that and use the NL brand and platform to push it, but don't turn NL to an app. I don talk my own.

I didnt use anything like CHAT APP in that comment. I mean APP. For surfing NL. If you're familiar with XDA. Go check their App. Thats what i meant. It even gives a notification when theres a comment on a topic you followed.

[size=24pt] For now, all we need is an app. A NL app for smooth and easy thread surfing. Pls meditate on this!!! God bless all NL Team.[/size]

jude33084: Pls how can I get τhis application?

I have iphone 4


Can't wait to have it mehnnnn!

@ Topic:

You can swith the phone off.
You can get on_m@p location of the fone.
You can record voices,videos etc. remotely from the PC.

Go sheck it aut!!!

Thanks for checking in.
...

You think theres another BEST?
Pls share!!!
thanks.

This is an official thread for HTC Desire S Owners/Users on Nairaland. Lets share infos,apps & ideas bout the device. Thanks

Nice thread. anyone knws if theres a thread for DESIRE S? Cos i want to start it. Thanks

cecegorz: That's right bro.
Especially when you can still subscribe for 1500 monthly BIS on your android, share the data through your wifi tethering, and feed your lappy and other devices.

Bro.. Can I get that parole in my inbox?
Ewizard1@yahoo.com
Thanks

meenagiggs: Yes sir. Now get the hell out of here with your superior knowledge.

E neva reach fight nah. Na knowledge i share

meenagiggs: Except if he is using a bb Porshe.
And no, you can't ping with your GS3.

Pls see the picture. so, can the GS3 ping? Thank you.

apocalypse: I pray God removes poverty mentality from your life , I see that anytime most Nigerians see the words cheap , free and unlimited those goods are automatically better than the others , what about functionality. Tell me what the BlackBerry does better than the Android ?

Me sef go like know ooo.

And please.... i keep saying thing. Dont marry the word PING to BB oooooo! Ping is a short sharp sound that notifies u of something. I hear millions of people say "only blackberry can ping" Sharrap! all fones can ping. as long as they can make that short sharp tone. u get that? Ping,Beep etc...

*clears throat*
Hello everyone... especially the blackberry users.
I dislike not hate blackberry right from the start. A friend accused it's cause I cant afford the BIS. I don't know. But I think blackberry is meant for BUSINESS. Please see the highcased text. But it annoys me if you want to prove being smart with your blackberry. Since I joined the Android os , I've disliked the BB more. The only thing i think you enjoi is the getting more data cap for less pay,which i also use on my android fone.
....
I am someone who.loves getting more out of devices. BB dont have much. Being an Open Source project os, android has Millions of mouth watering app which i think RIM would nevet get in 5years.

e.g
1. As a student, i dont need to bother switching my device to silence when i'm in class. theres a app that knows i'm in class by 8am and switches the device to silence and also changes when i'm outta class. I bet a BB dont have that.
2. With another phone or computer, i can get the present location of my phone. Incase its stolen, i can remotely lock,wipe,take pictures,record anytthing that could help me get my fone back.
3. A barcode scanner can let me know if a product is original.
4. I can make qr barcodes for products,contacts sms etc. Just scan and get my message.
....
countless apps... talk about entertainment. Pls dont bloww your BB with HD games ooo. (you even get game sef?)
....
so what are you guys saying...
I get emails,notifications in seconds like you get them.
wait... Can you make pdf files right from your device? i didnt say read oooo! i said CREATE! I bet NO. Move with technology. Get an android device today. An os from the almighty GOOGLE. What else could you be searching for? An os that fits all ur tech needs.
....
An incase you dont know, i use the Glo BIS on my android device. 3gb data for N1200. Pls dont sue glo oooo. :p

jboy01: @sundayid which launcher or app did u use for this?

Its not a Launcher, its the Recent App layout style on JB rom.

For peeps who need the TSF Launcher, download the apk file from 4shared.

Thanks....
