Recently upgraded by phone from the s4 to the s5. The S4 is such a fantastic phone. Everything is where its supposed to be but the s5 is too good to pass up.
Anywho, I have noticed some changes...at least on the phone that I have:
The flashlight (camera flash) on the s4 is brighter than the s5
The speaker phone and head piece is louder on the s4 than then s5... I did a comparison with both stock roms and both custom roms.

Hi
When s5 lunched I see reviews and pictures of it system and I like it very much and like the flat design and icons.
And I was wondering, is it coming to s4?
have a launcher 5s for galaxy s4
Hello, mates!
I own a galaxy s4, IMO is a perfect device for dimensions, screen, and spaces optimizations.
I don't like s5 form factor, and the only one thing I really miss with s4 is the camera in low light conditions.
Compared with new sensors s4 can't make very good low light pictures, a friend of mine have huawei p7 and I can see that in darkness pictures are much better than mine take with s4!
My idea is to install s5 camera in galaxy s4, I think pinout could be the same (n^ of pins are the same, but I have no datasheets).
It could be a difficult mod because s5 flex cable is not straight like the flex cable of s4 camera:

Probably it's impossible for a lot of reasons (drivers? from galaxy s5 is possible? Fit to the case? Cable?), but I ask because I know someone swapped camera sensors in other devices, and the only thing that makes it seem "old" the s4 is the camera performance :cyclops:
Work on i9505?

I don't know, for this reason I posted in Q/A section
Hi,
I'm currently on the Galaxy S4 i9505 running a ported GPE ROM. Now it's time to upgrade, and since the new Nexus 5 is a bit too big for my tastes, I looking at alternatives.
One pf those is the Galaxy S5 LTE+ (Snapdragon 805, 2GB RAM).
One issue with the S4 is, that any ROM apart from TW or GPE kills HDR functionality. This appears to be unfixable. HDR shots always appear as just uniform gray in Google Camera
How does the S5 do here? Can I flash CM and still use all features in Google Camera properly? Any other problems? I won't be using TW, so working GPE (not on the S5 sadly) or CM ROMs are essential for me.
Thanks.
Buying galaxy s4 in 2015
S4 is still an amazing device when s4 was released it was 42,000rs in india and in 2015 it is 17,800rs which is same as price for galaxy e5
Which phone should i go galaxy s4 or galaxy e5
Things for which i use phone:
Calling
Photography
Gaming a bit
Performance
And main is moding,rooting and flashing roms
From what I can see. the S4 has better specs. The E5 only offers a 1.2 quad-core and 1.5 GB ram. Unless the E5 has newer technology (which would give it an advantage), the S4 is better.
I also think that the S4 has more support in terms of modding, rooting and flashing stuff.
Just make sure to get the GT-I9505 if possible. It seems to be more active than the GT-I9500
Hmm...I thought he posted a typo there and was asking about the S4 vs the S5. Comparing the E5 to the S4, here's what you'd be giving up. The E5 does not have LTE, being limited to HSPA+. The screen resolution and density are lower than the S4 (720x1280, 294ppi vs 1080x1920, 441dpi). Each device has a quad-core CPU, but each core of the E5 is slower than the S4 (1.2GHz vs 1.9GHz). Internal storage is the same, but RAM is only 1.5GB, versus the 2.0GB in the S4. The E5 camera is an 8MP shooter while the S4 has 13MP. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, as the E5 should actually take better pictures in lower light situations.
The S4 is the clear winner in every category. Even against the S5 it still holds its own. While the S5 does have a faster processor, slightly larger screen, and a beefier camera, the improvements are not significant enough to compel S4 owners to upgrade. People who never had a S4 however would benefit, or they can wait for the S6, which should become available in a couple months or so.
s4 still a beast at 2 years of age!
Yes the battery life is very dull on 3hours screen time
But style is like boss my friends boxy phones likke mi4,grandprime,grand2
S4 looks better
hi all. i am going to buy a new phone i only have two options.. Either galaxy note 3 or galaxy s5. which phone should i buy??
My only preference is great camera and loud sound... so please tell me which is better s5 or note 3??
You should get a hold of one before thinking of buying it because, it is a big phone compared to the S5. I've upgraded from a Galaxy Alpha to the Note 3 and wow that thing was huge...
Also, fingerprint scanner might be a thing that you want to look into.
As far as camera and soundwise, the Note 3 hasn't ceased to amaze me with the sound quality and loudness when using earphones, this coming from a person who has enjoyed the iPhone's DAC extra loudness.
And the camera is just amazing, really great camera performance on the Note 3. You do have more pixels on the S5 but... yeah, from my experience, nothing to point out.
Ok i bought n9005 used and i m too happy. . Its an excellent device great battery great camera
