    is the same to lock the phone and Screen timeout?

    Thanks for that info tat21985 - I'm trying to figure out how to lock the phone and shut off the screen when I hit the power/lock button. The problem I'm having is that the screen locks and goes dark when I hit the power button, but it does not STAY dark. The lock screen/wallpaper keeps popping...

    (Perhaps dumb) very basic question: upgrading from S2 to S4, backup?

    Lots of reads, no responses . . . so: Seems to have gone well, with zero back up. Just met met my husband for a glass of wine, he brought the phone (which he had thoughtfully charged for me at home after it arrived) - someone on the main forum was nice enough to suggest a Kies backup, but I...

    Seems to have gone well, with zero back up. Just met met my husband for a glass of wine, he brought the phone (which he had thoughtfully charged for me at home after it arrived) - didn't see the message above about Kies until just now. While we were out, I inserted the new SIM card, called...

    Hi there, this post will reveal my skill level pretty quickly . . . My S4 (TMo) arrives today. I will be switching from my beloved S2. I was told by TMo that I'll need to activate the new SIM card that arrives with my new phone. Here's my question: Do I just move my memory card to the new...

    Anyone else get "backordered" message today?

    Well, it was labeled last night and shipped out this morning. Should be on my doorstep before 5pm. So I guess (with the expedited shipping) I'm still getting it before I would have expected it with the cheaper shipping. Just not two days ago, but oh well, I'm excited to unbox. And I have a...

    Anyone else get "backordered" message today?

    I ordered by phone last Friday, then stupidly forgot to respond to the email confirming the $20/24mo payment plan. Called first thing Monday morning, CSR said no problem, processed the order and all paperwork said I should still have delivery by the end of the day Monday (which was a bit...
