Boosted Falcon

Just got a shiny new phone, Galaxy S4. Love it, seems to be able to handle the Internet version of boosted no dramas.

What's the go with tapatalk? Does it require less data than the full version? What are the benefits and drawbacks?

Its basically just easier to use on a smaller screen, its an alternative interface designed with bigger menus/buttons/etc. Probably does use less data since its not loading all the pictures/etc.

Lol dan fkn hell what were you using before? Pidgeons and telegrams?
Was your old phone cracking the shits with boosted?

I don't use tapatalk cause I don't like the look of it.
Maybe this thread will change my mind.

It's all I use. So easy to use and upload pictures.

I think it would have to use less data, not that there would be much anyway.

It's good for fast loading speeds. I haven't bothered with it since being a mod though because it couldn't do everything I wanted it to before, so doubt it will have all the mod tools.

I'd like to be proven wrong though, but CBF finding out myself.

There is a newer version available now too. My 2 year old out dated brick can't get it though.

I use it all the time, when Im not at a computer (60% of the time).

Works well, I'm happy with it.

Always use it. Even at home. Has some good features.

Some of the menus

WOW!!! Rollin with new technology... Just don't drop it!


I also use Tapatalk when browsing on my phone... Have always found it pretty good...

I've been meaning to look into it as well, just about forum I use has tapia talk now.

Oh, and go ahead and drop the s4, its not an iPhone so it doesn't need to be handled with kid gloves.

I tried it a few months back, didn't like it.
I used appcake on the iPhone to give it a crack to see what it was like.
Main thing was the lack of multiple windows (could have just been me), and I don't like 2 interfaces for the same forum.

Nstg8a, I dunno about that! I repair phones.
iPhone 5's seem to be much more resilient to drops as the screen isn't pronounced like the i4, which I see a truckload of.
S3 and S4 seem to have a lot more full LCD failures, I've seen a few that haven't even had cracked screens but have a dead LCD from a drop.

Yeah I knew i4s were shocking for screens, interesting about the s4's you've been getting, I guess with a near un breakable screen the impact has to go somewhere.

I haven't had to many issues with tapatalk.
I dont mind it

I love tapatalk and would definitely recommend it, especially if you frequent a few forums keeps everything nice and easy.

Gorilla glass definitely isn't unbreakable. I get a lot of Samsung s3/4 and notes. I read a comparison between the s3 and i5 when the apple was new and in nearly all drops the s3 faired considerably worse. They did a range of heights and different landing angles.
I probably do 10 i4s to every s3 or s4, then half as many i5s again. In the last month or two I reckon I've done more s4 than s3 too.

Interesting, what does it cost repair a s4 when its dropped, mines been dropped plenty so I guess one of these times it will finally shit itself.

Just a glass replacement I charge $120 for an s4, $100 for an s3, and $70 for an iPhone 4.
Parts are cheap but it takes quite a while to split the galaxy screens, and the iPhone is a one piece screen (costs 3x as much) but it's just unscrew then reassemble, no heat gun.
If you bust the LCD on either galaxy you're up for way more.

I charge about the same, don't get many Samsungs here though. Mainly iPhones/iPods

So tapatalk updated last night and it looks to be heaps different then the pics before haha.
Still prefer it.

Yeh I forgot about iPods, get plenty of those as well.

Yea, the update seems a little more comprehensive than the previous version...

Misk - used a PC because PC's are awesome!

OED666 - No plans to drop the S4 as yet, I quite like it! As a matter of fact I might just possibly buy some form of cover or case for it, which would be the first time I have EVER purchased an accessory for a phone in the ~13 years I've had one. Nothing fancy, I saw one on ebay for about $8 which looked the goods

How does one go about getting it exactly. I tried on my s3 on the app store and like 1 millliiionnn came up

Can you do mod stuff?

I should just try it out myself lol.

I just updated to the new one yesterday and am still getting used to it, I liked the old version way better you used to be able to do most mod stuff on it, haven't tried anything with the new one yet though!

defiantly the old one was better but been getting used to the new one and its not so bad.
It's just re learning.

Yeah I just updated the app last night too, bit different! Still getting used to it, participated topics seems to work properly for me now though.

Got it its great! Probly not as easy to navigate and find things, but works a treat

Downloaded it yesterday for WP and had a play. I can see it'd be good if you have shitty download speeds, but I don't so it takes me longer to navigate around than just using IE.

No mod tools either.

Its just great on your phone.

How do you post up pics on the new tapatalk? Reply, attach pic, but then it doesn't seem to show up?

On mine it's reply, camera, select source, select image, then you can modify the image or just click done then chose inline image or attachment then its all there and send

from my mind to your eyes
now your going to need petrol to burn that image out lol
