Well, the JB made me NOT purchase the Note 3 but wait for the GS5 to see whether it has 4K video with optical image stabilization. If it does, I'll purchase it instantly.

In the meantime, I can use my muted call recording and my video wideangle apps (both my apps - see https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1566350/ and https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1538193/ ; I've updated them for iOS7), which makes my iPhone 5 far more flexible as a generic phone too than stock iOS.

Not sure what that is all about. Gives you the ability to record a call? You can get apps for that in the Playstore without rooting.

Yup. This was one of the reasons I wanted to switch to Android from my current iOS (iPhone 5) + Symbian (Nokia 808) combo. Symbian is getting older (but supports call recording), while iOS, on non-JB'n devices, has not supported call recording.

Now that my iPhone 5 also supports call recording (thanks to me ;) ), I can stay with it, after retiring my 808, at least until the GS5 announcement.

I see. Im just saying you can get apps in the Playstore for free without having to root. I dont use them though. Thought about it but i really dont see what i would use it for.
