Anonymous, 14 May 2014im my phone ...the face detection features are not functioning.can any one help pls?....
I assume you are aware of switching those features on either from the notification toggle or from the settings menu.
With that assumption, if these functions are not working, open the file manager, search for a folder named ".face" in the Internal Memory, delete it and then restart your device and try again, it would recreate the files it use for Face detection features and would start working again.

sam, 13 May 2014Hi Shubham,I am going to buy a smartphone tomorrow should I go with s4 or nexus 5,my main conc... moreI can go on and on about these phones. They are too different. I'll tell you the complete breakdown and you choose what you want. Firstly, we take into account that nexus 5 doesn't have an sd card slot and the 16 gig version will give around 12-13 gb storage. That's not enough. So you will have to go with 32 gb nexus 5 as you have to keep internal memory as free as possible as when you deplete internal memory, phone gets too slow and laggy.
So let's compare 16 gb s4(i9500) and 32 gb nexus 5.
Build and looks: nexus has a more fragile build and has non removable battery whereas s4 has removable battery, sd card slot and a decent build( it has taken fall atleast 15 times and just has some scratches).
Screen: s4 obviously. Better viewing angles, contrast, perfect blacks and better sunlight legibility in s4 screen. You can't match an amoled with lcd.
Battery: s4 has around 50% more battery life.
UI.:Now this depends on personal preference. You like features and power or you like speed. Nexus 5 is faster. Really fast. In return, s4 has touchwiz which is slower but has a very functional ui.
Speaker: I believe nexus 5 has the lowest quality speaker I have seen on a phone. Oh they really sound cheap and volume is kinda low. S4 has mono but loud speakers.
Camera: s4 thrashes nexus 5 in camera. Nexus 5 has a lower res. Smaller sensor and the proccessing is also not good. So the nexus 5 doesn't produce good images. S4 is quite good in camera and wind by a large margin.
Performance: nexus 5 takes it. It's faster and has a better chipset.
Updates: Google has 1.5 year upgrade plan for every nexus whereas Samsung has period of more than 2 years. But s4 released earlier. So both will recieve upto same time. But nexus recieves update earlier. See, don't worry about updates, google and Samsung are pretty good at it. Note that now both phones are at kitkat.
Price: in India, nexus 5 32 gb costs much more than s4 16 gb.
Now its your choice. You choose what you wanna buy.
Have a nice day

I am using a Nokia 1200 for past two weeks, and haven't missed it for a single second other than when I need to check the scores of football via TheScore.
What the heck do you mean by not replying properly to whoever that person is? I am the one who is replying, and I will do as I like. If he/she is some friend of yours ask him to contact me on Facebook or Twitter, this is not a friendly chit-chat page!
