Rooted s4 for friend - Nexus 5 General

Thought I was going to shoot myself. My friend has a sch-r970 and he just wanted root. He didn't have the stock cable. All of the computer's at work run window's 7 and I was getting an error in Odin. So I had to find a comp without windows premium , install virtual PC and do it all in xp. It felt so half ass it was awful. I rooted it but I'll never get a Samsung device.

I'm gonna take a guess she's using a Nexus 4 and called it a Galaxy. Because the general public thinks Android = Galaxy

You're aware that most people don't know how to use their phones right? An article that I recently read is a great example:
HTC researched user behavior to learn what it could benefit by changing. It learned that while lots of users have weather, music, or clock widgets configured to run on their phones, fewer than than 10% of other HTC users had anything else.
It also found that we’re just not very aware of widgets in the first place, with many users not thinking of them as any different from full-fledged apps, and we get awfully set in our ways – after the first month with a new phone, only 20% of users ever go back and really change-up their home screens.

I may not use everything my phone can do but I at least know that it's always there for me, most people still don't know that. For example, I was taking a panorama on my phone yesterday and my friend with an iPhone 5 claimed that it was a blatant copy from iOS. I find that people tend not to know features of their smartphones until Apple advertises them and they realist that their phones can do that too.
This has nothing to do with the Nexus 4/XDA.

Don't blame the developers, blame Google.

But so far, no one can offer Chromecast support until Google allows it—and for now, only Netflix and Hulu have entered that charmed circle. Google insists that it will open the gates to all developers, someday. Unfortunately, the company refuses to say when that will be.

ETA Of Custom Roms

Hello Everyone,,
Well we all have been waiting for a while for this dang boot loader to get unlocked. Do we have anyone that can report any success at all yet? how close are we getting? We all know we can root with kingo which is alittle bit safer now since thier update. WE need to get this rolling i love flashing roms and providing feedback. Any one think we will get some custom roms and this dang boot loader unlocked by then end of the year!?! Feel free to speak your mind we need to start talking to each other to get this done. we only have 2 threads on here this is crazy!!!
:laugh:
There's a thread this been getting some attention the past couple days. It allows you to flash a ROM without recovery. Go check that out. Very risky I believe though.

Goodbye SGH-T679 (Exhibit 4g)

Well it had been an awesome 2 years with this phone, but it is just outdated and lacks speed. My wife and I are switching to the galaxy light, she had an S1. The quadcore makes a difference. And comes stock at 1.4ghz I'll miss this little phone a lot, but its time to move on. I'll still be around to answer questions but not on a regular basis.

Sad to see you go, but I understand. I had an S1 before the Exhibit and it was a nice phone. Good luck and nice to know you'll still be here occasionally.
Still using my sgh t679.
I like that it's rooted, small screen (hate the new mini tablet phones people have), and that if I lose it I won't be out 400 or so USD...
And suprising amount of apps are compatible, don't know how long this will last since i am still on 2.3.5 android.
Its so fast and it has wifi calling!!!! How I missed that.

Got it. $10 a month is really nice, but when I can get it for half that online, I will get it from ebay, maybe. I'm still waiting to hear from t-mobile about working at a store. If that happens, maybe I can get the phone even cheaper. On the T-Mobile site it's 0 down, $9 a month. Why are you paying $40?
Did you buy the phone already? QVC has it for $150 and offers financing to break up the payments without paying more. "Order two and save on shipping!"
Its not$40 a month, it was a $40 down payment. Because my credit is not the greatest.

Awesome. It's good to hear that it's as good as I have heard. And, I see you already know about the thread on rooting this phone. I think it's still too new. Being on the cutting edge isn't always so good. AD told me about the Light and only went to the S2 because it was already rooted. I'm gonna be patient and wait the few months until I can root it and leave it rooted-stock, anyway. At least for a little while, just to get rid of the bloatware.
That's mainly what I want to do
