never thought you would use Bluetooth and Avalon in the same sentence huh? Never knew there was a infotainment system that had both an AM/FM cassette deck and Bluetooth?

One option which all my car doesn't have but 99 Avalon has is the AM/FM Cassette player w/ CD.

Sim cards, interchangeable batteries, 4G years ago, FaceTime through Google voice without having to be wifi, (new now for ios) and yes many ios say "but we have tango" will with tango you can't use your phone number like Skype you have to have a tango name,what a joke. Flash whole other discussion, now html5 to make up for the lagging ios syatems, APPLE IOS is far behind in time to current technology. There front facing camera technology came out in 1988 for gods sake what's that tell ya! And the OP says what phone should I buy, duh really? Please anybody prove me wrong with some facts. How but this one on user interface , Android has tray were apps can be kept out of view, then up to seven screens can be customized with any of those apps in any form or fashion, with IOS all your apps have to be resident on your screens, I could go on and on so forget the rant, if you really don't understand simply what's better, then what's the difference buy Apple most people do .

Make sure you change the color of the vehicle on my signature picture. I don't want to give a wrong impression on the forum that we both share the same lavishing luxury vehicle such as 99' Avalon.

If you live in the city or major urban areas, TMobile gets fantastic LTE speeds and is very consistent. It's funny, b/c I've only been a customer since 2012 and my first phone was only HSPA+ enabled and I thought that was fast. lol. I was also literally the first to get LTE on TMobile back in late 2012. I had a Note 2, and got the LTE radio activation patch 2 days before LTE official went live in Washington DC metro area. And I tell you what, being the first 1000 or so on a new LTE network with a blazing fast phone is like being able to drive a Ferrari Enzo on a new desert highway. No one in your way, highway to porn. |

Their front facing camera technology came out 20 years ago, talk about behind in times. Make sure you get the flip case with your note 4, back of case becomes back of phone, and smart view front window allows many functions without opening cover, that would be reason alone.

So I got it in white! Coming from iphone 6, long time IOS user, my initial thoughts:
-android learning curve is steep compared to IOS, but I loved learning a whole new system -The screen is amazing, clearly better than apple retina display -screen and phone size are just right for my big hands -camera is better than IP6 camera, although I had no complaints with IP6 camera -pictures are crisp and not over saturated -the Back key is such a convenience -stylus is neat but still learning it -battery life is good and could probably last longer than a day, but I have a habit of charging every night when I go to bed anywaysÂ* -the charger is SUPER fast -had to download Adobe reader to view pdf in email, I never had to do that on iPhoneÂ* -had to download VLC to view videos sent in text message -haven't experienced any lag or anything significant -love privacy mode so I can hide files, didn't have that in IOSÂ* -I'll probably never go back to a smaller screen -speaker is loud and clear, sounds tinny and low on bass though, but I don't watch movies or listen to music using the speaker. All I care about is call clarity and speakerphone and it does the job just fineÂ* -fingerprint scanner is good but not as good as apple, so I just use a pattern swipe for unlock. It worked 90% of the time Questions: -what program do I backup my phone to, like what is android's Itunes?Â* -i have no problems with TouchWiz as of now, but what do you suggest for launchers? Nova, google, etc.Â* -how do I tap to go to top of screen? Overall I'm happy I made the switch to android. Apple makes great products, but innovation has tanked recently IMO. I disagree with reviews where they pit the 6P vs N4, because the N4 actually uses screen for multi tasking and productivity, whereas the 6P is just a bigger IP6. If the 6P had more features and actually took advantage of bigger screen, then I would consider it a true competitor. It seems like a missed opportunity for Apple to do more. Thank you to all for your advice! Pardon any Grammer mistakes. |

Your Gmail account backs up all your apps, if you choose to make certain things resident on just the phone itself and not the Micro SD i.e. contacts then you would use later the Samsung transfer app, real simple and you put that app on the old phone then on the new. All of your music needs to be uploaded to google play music. Its more open than that Itunes crap. You can cast via bluetooth to your tv and to your BMW sound is awesome. Then next time you buy a TV set like the Samsung 7100, then there does not need to be a setup on your tv or phone for Casting, its recognized automatically. Use the IR blaster to control all your TV's too, as long as you have your phone who cares who cares where the remote is. As far as taping to get to top of screen, just refresh the screen. Not a button I know of. If you get the Samsung 50.00 cover and you bluetooth to your car, you can control the music from the face of the closed case its awesome.

you don't have to use any app to transfer music. you can just plug it in and copy and paste files to whatever folder you want.
you can use an app if you want to but it's not a requirement. i personally just copy and paste.

The nova launcher is the best IMHO, I was always a huge apex guy but the notifications do not work correctly with 4.4 system. I have since moved to nova and go tthe premium edition and everything works. You can resize all the icons and take away the names, you name it it can be done. the tap to top of screen is in the Gesture settings. Flash player works on this phone with 4.4 also, you have to use dophin browser and a modified version of the flash player.apk PM if you want it and I will send it to you. Here is one for everyone, most corporate exchange servers block the install of the flash player because it is a non authorized app in the market. After installing the altered flash.apk and dolphin browser use a app called Touchdown HD for your exchange email. It is 20 bucks but it is one of the only apps that use a internal exchange verification packet to allow the server to have all its security crap fro your work but it stays inside the app and does not actually install the admin status on the phone therefore not blocking the flash player. We all know why we need the flash player anyway. LOL Here is a screen shot of my home screen with all the icons resized and everything else changed with the Nova launcher

Question: when I text a video, it says file is too large and it compresses it, but my recipient says quality of video is poor. Any solutions?
When I texted videos on my old iPhone, I never had this issue. |

if you send a video from your iphone to another phone that isn't, you will get the same unfortunate quality. mms sucks imo. there are a lot of other options but i personally would just send a dropbox link since you have a free account with them now.
