    My wife got this for Mother's Day. Tab 4 10.1"

    Just thought I might give a very quick review and wanted to get other people's impressions. I gave her one from the kids and I. 1. Very nice screen...... looks at least as nice as my iPad mini to my eyes. 2. Very light in weight. 3. Seems to fly on the internet. 4. So far, the only thing my...

    Why do so many apps want access to my phone calls?

    Apps, that seemingly have NOTHING to do with needing access. Like, I just went to DL an app that streams photos to my TV via chromecast...... WTH would it need access to my phone calls? Just about 75% of the games I wanted to DL asked for it too. About the only apps I would grant that access...

    Looking for fun OFFLINE games

    Looking mostly for city builders or RPGs.... or other strategy games.... but need these 3 conditions met: 1. Does not ask for permission to phone calls...... no way in hell do I allow that for games. 2. Can ask to connect with facebook, but does not constantly hound me to share with...

    Re: A few last questions before I buy on Friday. I can't figure out how..... my wife did it, but can't figure out how to do it again. I will keep working on it.

    Verizon Galaxy S4: A few last questions before I buy on Friday.

    Thanks everybody.....I did, in fact, get my S4 on Friday....Valentine's day..... and there was bad weather..... and STILL, Verizon was busy, but they finally had the S4 for free, so I went there. Most of it seems pretty intuitive, or at least not that hard to find. I have had an issue, and maybe...

    Re: A few last questions before I buy on Friday. Thank you ink.... 3. I have to shoot lots of videos for a website.... hence the need for lots of storage.

    Verizon Galaxy S4: A few last questions before I buy on Friday.

    Re: A few last questions before I buy on Friday. I am actually getting PAID $50 via gift card after my phone trade in..... can't beat getting paid to buy an S4, IMO.

    Verizon Galaxy S4: A few last questions before I buy on Friday.

    Re: A few last questions before I buy on Friday. No thanks..... I never buy phones when they first come out. They cost more, and I don't want to be a guinea pig.

    Verizon Galaxy S4: A few last questions before I buy on Friday.

    My contract is up on Friday, and I hope to have a new S4 by Friday night, 1. If I buy at a regular store ( Walmart, Target...... ) can they still transfer all my contacts and apps? I know Verizon can. At least contacts. 2. Is there a book or magazine that shows you how to use virtually every...

    I would pay $20 for "x" app if it existed...

    Mine would be a video editor that is as capable a iMovie. Please list your apps that you might pay $20 for.

    The guy at the Verizon store told me to buy my S4 at Best Buy.

    Right now it is $50 at Best Buy..... but $1 at Walmart..... only thing is is that my contract lasts 13 more days..... This is funny, as I never cared about a phone before.... I only talk about 30 minutes a month and maybe have / send 20 texts.... but the camera is super important.

    The guy at the Verizon store told me to buy my S4 at Best Buy.

    He and I are kind of friends, in that I have bought 8 phones over the years from him for my family. I went in and saw that Verizon was selling the S4 for 249.00 with a 2 year extension. He told me that Best Buy has it for free. That said, while he did tell me to go to Best Buy for an S4, he...
