Samsung to Remove TouchWiz Features From Galaxy S6

Samsung to Remove TouchWiz Features From Galaxy S6


So, anyone who has gotten to know and love Samsung since the late Galaxy S2 days know what the common look of TouchWiz is, and how it functions, and packs many of Samsung motion features, and ect.
Samsung is reportedly taking away the many features Touchwiz offers, keeping the launcher in tact, but rather offering users the features they want via the Play store, or another way instead.
This can be great for people who tend to whine about bloatware of how slow TouchWiz can get, but will it affect the Galaxy S5, Note 4, and up with an update? I do not know.
TouchWiz is a beautiful interface to use, but it's gotten away from the whole "look, and feel" and moved on to how much can we pack into one interface? This has rendered TouchWiz some what annoying.

My Thoughts?:

I think this is past due. It has been for about 2 years now, disconnecting features, and throwing them in a separate place for download will be a great thing. I'm glad to hear they are sticking to Android a bit longer, as I do not think Samsung's "Tizen" will kick off as great as they wanted. I like the look of TouchWiz, but I'm more of a Pure Android Experience type of guy. I can't wait to see what the Galaxy S6 will look like, I've seen concepts and "prototypes" and they all look sweet, but lets just see whats going to actually become of it.
All in all, Good move Samsung.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions)

By
Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions) I'm excited to bring you this news today, Galaxy S3 users can now download the Google Play Edition of Android (As close as you will get to it) only on USA Versions as of right now. It all started when I got inspired by the sunbeam live wallpaper (How loco?). I decided to disect a Cyanogenmod Rom, first I started with AOKP, but was not satisfied by all the more options. Options are never a bad thing, but when you start with a 4.4.2 Nightly build of AOKP, You don't know where the heck the lockscreen settings are, or in fact I don't think it added any options for the lockscreen ring. They are still working on it, the rom is pretty crystal clear, and pure right now as it is. I decided to revise. I turned to the CM10.2 version, and started to play with it, luckily I soon got all the Google Apps installed correctly with no problem, and now I'm working on a revised build of the 4.4.2 Google Play Edition. I know just...

Apple iPhone X is it Fisher Price? Or VTech?

By
Apple iPhone X is it Fisher Price? Or VTech? Apple iPhone X is it Fisher Price? Or VTech? That is the question many parents wonder as they buy their child the top of the line iPhone out today, and receive a VTech watch when you sign up with Sprint. $5 a month on a plan for an iPhone X and a plan on the Sprint Flex plan. The iPhone X is a very nice piece of technology I have to admit, and this VTech watch is also very nice, but I wonder why they aren't doing a promo with a first gen apple watch? The iPhone X is an amazing looking device, lack of the home button Apple loved so much, and no Touch ID, because now the FACE is everything. The new iPhone's out later this year should resemble the iPhone X I believe, but will be a plus sized as well. The VTech watch looks good as well, I would wear one, if I can cover up the VTech part, it comes with a motion sensor to make awesome lightsaber noises when you flail your arms like an idiot, and 30 different clock ...

HTC One, US Carriers, to Receive 4.4 Kitkat Update!

By
HTC One, US Carriers, to Receive 4.4 Kitkat Update! The HTC one, the ONE HIT WONDER Android Phone of 2013 will be receiving Android 4.4 Kitkat. This is great news because 4.4 is the newest Android Operating system version out there (for those of you who did not know) and so with Kitkat, this phone will be good as new again! The HTC One recently has gotten Sense 5, will this Kitkat rom be bare, or have Sense... 6?? Who knows. Exciting as that is, when all phones finally get 4.4, I'm sure Android will have something new out like 4.6 or 5.1 I don't know, they seem to move very fast, but at least you're able to get the Operating system upgrades via Cyanogenmod. HTC One has the Beats audio built in, and with root on your own device you're able to get ahold of the beats audio mod engine (How cool?) It would be really good to have an HTC One, with Stock Google Android, but I doubt HTC would let that happen through OTA updates (Over The Air) Android Guru Guy; Dayto...
