Thanks very much. Sorry I did not get back to say thanks before this but I just could not get back to the forum until now. Regards

My carrier is VZW and I have to admit that what I really do not appreciate is having something rammed down my throat. My preference on updates is to allow the bugs to get worked out before I make a switch. The % of new firmware or software packages I have seen released without bugs.......0%...

Re: OK....I am REALLY REALLY CONCERNED about this! God I hate half baked updates. Neither Samsung nor the carriers have much to be proud of here. At best it appears one has to do a factory reset just to get the mighty lollypop. Updates should be seamless, nothing events. That the hardware...

Re: OK....I am REALLY REALLY CONCERNED about this! Well so far I have just not performed the update. Frankly if I could just get rid of the update reminder screen I would just wait longer. I am Note 4 user on VZW and I am be darned if I am going to see my data sucked up by this stupid thing. If...

I don't think the iphone will catch up. It will take a complete philosophical change in design approach for Apple to even begin to catch up. They are in a great spot with regard to installed base but a tough spot with regard to making the changes they would need to make to compete with a Note...

My Note 4 has not been buggy at all. Sometimes I have forgotten to Restart in a timely manner. They will all get buggy if you don't. So I can't say that I am anxious to see Lollypop. Just no need. But since I am on VZW by the time we get Lollypop, Samsung will likely have had a year to work out...

restarting does indeed prevent all sorts of nasty's from getting to your phone including freezes. I let it go a couple weeks by mistake and the thing really started getting glitchy. Functionality became spotty. Battery drain up. Starting losing whole functional pieces. Not pretty. Just press...

I am actually confused about whether I might have lost a piece of functionality since the VzW update or not. I swear I had new or unread incoming text audio notification before the update. But maybe I am just wrong. Someone here will know I am sure. At any rate, I no longer have any...

Re: Has anybody though about making "The switch"? In my case I held off and held off on a new mobile device waiting to see what iPhone 6 and 6+ had to offer. 6+ is just an overgrown smartphone IMO. An iPhone with more screen real estate and that is about it. That again is just not...

Re: Has anybody though about making "The switch"? I have not considered going back to an iPhone for a second. Gave them every opportunity to retain my device business and they simply did not measure up. As for the whole "it just works thing"...even that IMO is a thing of the past. Jobs must be...

I have the original zerolemon and I really don't have anything bad to say about it. People do not like the glass over the selfie camera lens but I just don't see a practical effect from it. Selfies look fine. Thing has a halo particularly since it is much larger than the current version. However...

I don't miss it even after all those years. It is true that iPhone stuff at least for me just seemed to work without any fuss...no learning curve...no nothing. But at the end of the day there just wasn't anything there. Think about what they are getting for those things!. The more I think about...

Well now don't I feel foolish. All I had to do was minimize the action memo. Problem solved....action memo saved and appears on all of the Nova Prime home screens. Kinda like it better than tacking it to a home screen as it shows up on all the home screens.

I will grant you that after reading so much about Nova Prime, coming from Apple imprisonment and not knowing anything, I was expecting it to be more wiz bang than it turns out to be relative to touchwiz. It does appear to be a cleaner launcher....less stuff going on. Not sure I could have...

I know this is off topic but I just wanted to compliment godzillinois on that home screen. Nice job really. I am guessing you have Nova or Nova Prime as a launcher. I have downloaded Nova as well. Just have to learn enough about configuring it to make it the default. Probably should go to...
