    Editing Repeating Events

    Anytime I try to edit a repeating event in my calendar I get an alert: "Edit event Change all events in the series". That alert used to show a circle with a green dot in it (as though selected) that I could not deselect. Now there is no circle or green dot, just the alert. So, when ever I want...

    Quick Access to Sound Profiles?

    Is there a way to quickly access the Sound Profile setting from the home screen? I know that pressing the volume rocker up or down give you access to configure volume for ringtone, notifications, etc. But it does not let you choose "SILENT." The lowest setting is vibrate, which is not good...

    Verizon HTC One - Camera Use - Lock Screen

    I access the camera app from the lock screen, no problem. However, if my screen happens to timeout and go dark or I tap the power button and turn off the screen I cannot use my phone because the camera app crashes. The only way to again use my phone is to restart it. Any suggestions?

    App Updates - Cannot Make Phone Call

    Whenever an app updates, I cannot make a phone call. Sometimes I cannot access the phone screen. Other times I cannot dial a number. Every time I eventually get a message that says "contacts" stopped. This happens EVERY TIME there is an app update. It doesn't matter it's one or many apps that...

    Search App? The native phone search is not that great

    Any recommendations for Search apps that function like Copernic on a desktop? The native search feature is okay, but I don't like that it searches the Web first (or same time) as it searches my phone for whatever I'm looking for. I'd prefer that it start on my phone and its contents before going...

    Hotmail Log In Failure

    Pretty regularly--every 2-3 hours--I get a notification that I cannot log into hotmail. The error message states: Server password has changed. Enter the new password. First, let me clearly state: there has been NO password change. I can log in just fine from other devices. Of course, I...

    Hotmail Server Password Issue

    I'm 99.9% certain that my Hotmail issue has nothing to do with my S4, but figured I might as well ask: "has anyone run into an issue with signing into hotmail after setting it up? Specifically, from time-to-time I get a "sign-in failed" alert that says "Server password has changed. Enter the new...

    Audio files randomly stop working

    I don't know for sure but I suspect that the error is associated with the device going on/off whatever wifi connection is available. The error reads something like: audio file cannot be played by this player. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using AC Forums mobile app

    Any one have any good things to say about this phone

    I just replaced my iPhone 4 with this phone and it's been a real WOW experience for me. I love it. I've had it now for a few days and the only bad things I can say is 1) the back cover is already scratched (not a big deal to me). In defense of the phone, I carry it in my front pants pocket with...

    Greyed out "Favorite apps or Camera" in Lock screen widgets

    Thanks for replying tawnyy. Unfortunately for me I can't leave my phone to "swipe" only; too much sensitive information on it. Hopefully a future update will "fix" this. The ability to get to my camera app ASAP is one thing I do miss about my iPhone.

    Greyed out "Favorite apps or Camera" in Lock screen widgets

    Hello. New to Android (made jump from iPhone 4) and loving it. The one thing I would like to see is the ability to quickly access the camera function from the lock screen. It seems like that is an option, but for whatever reason is not available right now? Any ideas that don't involve leaving my...
