    Anyone miss using a smaller phone?

    Definitely! I originally pre-ordered the S21 Ultra, coming from a Galaxy S8. I went to Best Buy to check out the phones and the Ultra is just too big. It wouldn't fit in back pocket. After handling the Ultra, I cancelled the pre-order and changed it to the base S21. The base is only marginally...

    Nova Launcher

    You might be able to purchase it from the devs website and sideload it. Either way it's better to buy than to steal. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    So long Android, Again...

    It's a simple as connecting your phone to a PC and dragging and dropping. You can also use some apps to sync with iTunes.

    Viewing videos on S4 help

    I have a video player on my Nexus tablet that seems to handle just about any format that I throw at it. I don't think it would be any different on the S4. It's called BSPlayer and there is a free version...

    So long Android, Again...

    One of the many benefits of Android. What is given up in one area is made up in another. Having made the switch from Android to iOS (and ultimately back again) I couldn't believe how restricted everything was. I felt like the phone was so locked down that all I was allowed to do was add and...

    The tradeoff of not getting consistent updates from model to model and carrier to carrier is the choice of phone configurations that you get with Android. Want a basic smartphone? Get a Moto G for less than $200 off contract. Want a top of the line phone, get the S4, One or G2. Or just get one...

    Texting Problem on Galaxy S4

    I assume you're using the stock app? I recommending changing to a third-party app and shutting down the stock app. I don't think I've EVER used the stock app in any phone that I've had.

    Are you satisfied with your Galaxy S4?

    Re: Are you satisfied with your Galaxy S4 ? Very much so. Great phone in every way. After a week or so of dialing things in and using Juice Defender, this is my battery life for today. This is after about 45 minutes of phone calls, 3 hours of Bluetooth in my car, 2 1/2 hours of screen time and...

    Might want to wait. AT&T begins updating the Galaxy S4 Active with Android 4.3

    Gotta disagree with you there. I bought the X during the Black Friday sale and sold my Galaxy S3 to finance it. After a month I knew it wasn't for me. I was able to find someone on Craigslist to trade me their Galaxy S4 for the X and I'm glad I did. I always THOUGHT I wanted stock Android but...

    Galaxy S4: I can't be the only with no issues after 4.3 update!

    Re: I can't be the only with no issues after 4.3 update! I just got mine on Thursday (traded from Moto X) and it had 4.3 on it. I don't seem to have any problems at all. I'll give it some more time obviously but everything seems to be working smoothly.
