explain the bolded, what do you mean no carrier? cause im already on no contract

I wanted to keep the phone to use for showbox app and other ish

something like that you can take to att or tmobile and get it hooked up on their prepaid plan, straight talk 45 a month, simple mobile, and so forth.

Tmobile has a plan for 30 a month with just data.

thanks

thoughts on Droid MAXX and z3? those are free also but for verizon

Droid Maxx is cool but a older phone but do you wanna sign a contract for a older phone? don't know about the z3.

Really? Have you tried factory reset? Mine has been pretty smooth since I go it OTA, no root no flash none of that.

Its coming.

Your in luck because today SamMobile leaked screenshots from the Beta Build but they didnt leak the build...

After the Nexus devices, Google Play Edition devices are one of the first to receive latest Android updates. Last year, Google announced the Google Play Edition program which featured high-end smartphones from various smartphone vendors like Samsung, HTC, and Sony. Samsung released the Google Play Edition of the Galaxy S4 (GT-i9505G) with stock Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean onboard, after which it was eventually updated to Android 4.4 KitKat with swift software updates. Now that Google has released Android 5.0 Lollipop to the public, Samsung is testing it on various devices including the Galaxy S5, Galaxy Note 3, and the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition. We’ve managed to get the beta build of Android 5.0 on the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition and here are the screenshots of the latest software. As expected, it features stock Android UI with Material design and all the features which were introduced with Android 5.0. We have already showcased the beta builds of Android 5.0 Lollipop based ROM for the Galaxy S5 and made a video displaying Android 5.0 on the Galaxy Note 3.

Screens at link but you already know what its gonna look like
