Ive been using Swiftkey for the longest and its been great to me.

but i just recently downloaded minuum and its been pretty cool. takes some time to get use to and can be slightly frustrating at times, but it saves screen space and its pretty fast and accurate

I always thought the same way. Like getting a new car and instantly taking it apart to modify without enjoying it for a lil bit first..

First thing I did when I bought my car was change out the sound system.

I'm only here for the hardware, it is the customization of Android that is a big appeal to me.

Basically. Slimkat rom on my N5 shyts on stock android w/ the amount of shyt I can customize & the optimization of the rom, i'd be a fool not to rock w/ it. I don't cop a new phone until a stable rom I like is available. Touchwiz...

the Galaxy S5 typically uses 1.20GBs of RAM on bullshyt. Maybe he'd like to free some of that up.

I don't know what's using all that ram. the phone doesn't really say. must be a touch wiz thing.

As for customization I haven't done any. Been running stock. I used my iPhone and looked up all the apps I had on it then put them on the S5. one thing that's nice is I got an app called PlayerPro and you can set it up so you shake the phone and it switches songs instead of having to look at the phone while driving.

brehs i got a at&t motorola Moto X for $15...... the screen is cracked but it worksgreat no problems with the touch screen at all.

now replacing the screen is that gonma be hard ???? reading up on it i see the digitizer is connrcted to the lcd glass screen. which im reading i have to buy both of them which is like 80-100$

now the glass screen is only like 10$ witH the tools to pry it off, i was reading you can use a heat gun or a hair dryer and then get the broken glass off that way (i did this process woth an iphome 5, the back bottom housong)

i kust dont lnow if its smart to do it the cheap way or not



i also got a galaxy s3 for 20$ with a cracked scfeen and m{y friend put a new screen on there with a heat gun so if anyOne can help me with some info i would def appreciate it!!!

If the phone still responds to touch input then the glass only needs to be replaced. but that was on the gs3. I tried replacing a cracked glass and cracked the digitizer. Check YouTube videos fur tutorials.
