Jumping ship? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Will you guys be staying with Samsung or will you guys be jumping ship to (HTC,lg, etc) with the whole Knox crap its really disappointing me
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I'll be sticking with Samsung unless the S5 is a disappointment. If that is the the case I'll be going back to the nexus line of devices

I think I would get a nexus or htc, never had either one but wanted one for a while.

Seeing as how I just dished out full retail price for this phone a month ago.. I'm gonna rock the S4 for another 1.5 maybe 2 years. Like I did with my Galaxy S2. I skipped the S3 and went to get the next one. So maybe an S6 in my far far future

I'll stick with Samsung/T-Mobile 'til they don't have the best phone/service available.
T-Mobile S4 is the best phone in existence. I assume the T-Mobile S5 will be, as well. I mean look at our development section compared to anything else.

Well the HTC one was neck and neck with the s4 and the reason why I got it was because of the remove able battery . and now this whole Knox crap is here its turning me away. Idk I guess I just have to see what these manufacturers have to offer this year

They seem to be doing much better on this phone with support than when I had the Vibrant, that literally took years
I have the vibrant when it 1st come out. And the support was suck.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I too can testify that Vibrant support was crap. But the GS3 is very similar across all platforms so carrier issues shouldn't be such a big deal this time around.
Rumor is that it will be by end of year. Who knows how accurate that will be, but as others have stated, with the GS3 being so similar in all it's versions, it's really going to come down to how long it takes to customize for each carrier. I'd imagine all updates will drop within a month or two of each other.
Alrigghttt. Just keep waiting. Friends nexus is already rolling with it. And I got all jelly.

Tomorrow the Sprint Nexus gets it. Therefore; I predict ours is still a few months away.

That was a lie. Samsung shot down that rumor via twitter.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
And not only that the s4 will probably take at least 6 months before it hits t mobile? And right now I can sell this for for $200. So that's where I'm stuck at.
I got an s3 and I'm waiting for the s4. Skipped the note 2 and nexus 4

I have both the s3 and the s2 and to be honest with the the awesome devs we have on both s2 amd s3. The difference in my opinion is not big at all! The s3 is an awesome phone, but when comparing especially for upgrade. I think the difference is to small to justify. Imho

There will always be something new get the s3 while you can still sell your phone for 200-250... s3 has excellent battery display no complaints from me...

My honest opinion we should skip 4. x anything... and demand 5.0.. And android 4.2 on my nexus 7 was not a nice thing...
Stick with what works.. not whats cutting edge..

I agree with sticking with what works but a lot of the people around here that can't do dev work truly believe that the newest is always the best, and that's not always the case. Android 5.0 may be just around the corner, who really knows considering 4.3 was just released for the Nexus line and in development for the S3, S4 and Note 3 (and possibly the Note 2).
ICS was a big step up from GB, and JB over ICS. History has proven the the next big version is not just better but A LOT better. But I have to ask, what could or would you possibly change to make Android that much better to warrant a major change over Jelly Bean?

Basically the stuff ive read from random sources online, its gonna be more aesthetic stuff but will also cut down on cpu usage. Making it more streamlined and less power hungry, meaning the newer smart phones will run smooth as silk and battery drain will be minimal. Obviously some features will be added, but i didnt read of anything revolutionary. Hopefully theyre keeping that aspect under a tight seal. I feel like theyre going to increase interaction with multiple devices now. Integration of all peripheral devices seems like the next "big thing".

Don't give a crap about the watch.
Guess what? They'll write the pairing code just like all the other Sammy-exclusive hardware like AllShare etc...so that rooting your handset to not spend a year waiting for a TWiz update will break any connectivity with the rest of the Sammy device ecosystem.
As to the Note2 and s3 update. Hope springs eternal. I'll believe it when I see it.
I'm lucky enough to have expendable income. I'll have the Note 3 day1. But I refuse to become **** Tracy with that watch.

Looking for a smarter smart watch (more activity functions, that can last longer then my workday, if even) and not sure about the Note 3... I know what i'll say is sacrilegious around here but, i'm kinda satisfied with my Note 2. I do have my upgrades on account so I might be talking smack right now. Lets see what the hype machines can spit out from now til release. But I am eyeing the Note 10.1(4) though.... :angel:
All I want is our upgrade to 4.3 I am happy with my phone .....plus by the time I can upgrade my line the note 5 will be out lol
