All Samsung phones, maybe not S6, whatever unbreakable, as they claim are big fat $ta##. It's all scam to make their screens brittle. Nothing helps, not cover, nether a case, or both. It all Cell companies, am Azurion and yes, Samsung make money on their $ta##!
Before S4 and S5, all phone I had, never broke a screen. Its my new S5, which I got after shattered S4 screen, withing short period of time is cracked today too. Only after two month and $60 in protection accessories. HATE HATE HATE YOU!!!!!!

hsb1, 18 Nov 2015how you tweaked your phones camera.. plz give some advise.For the camera;
- Make sure picture size is set at the highest level (16M)
- turn HDR on, it makes the colors a lot warmer and rich.
- turn off review pics/videos....its just annoying if you want to take alot of pics...
- turn selective focus OFF.
- In the video settings, turn it on to Smooth before recording, this makes it look awesome and cyrstal clear.
- and the obvious one, stay STILL when you take pics, let the focus adjust, then snap it....

Hope this helps a little....Cheers!!!

hsb1, 18 Nov 2015can u tell me how you changed your cpu frequency to such lower at 500mhz?just use power saving mode in notification panel... but cpu speed will still increase above 500mhz when you're using your phone for gaming, web browsing and playing video etc
(technically you need Root/jailbreak your phone if you really want to lower cpu speed freely as you wish)

I've had this phone for about 5 months and it's nice, but 1.) The picture quality is not as it was advertised, it SUCKS! and also there is some type of viruse on my phone and I cannot figure what it could be from,until I noticed that my boyfriends mom does the same thing. And everytime I tap on one of my apps(let's say... snapchat) for some reason it goes straight to the Google play store. And it does this no matter what app I open up.
So if you're reading this please you're much better going for a different phone.#that's a fact
