    Att update

    Are you sure it's really 4.2.2? That is what the S4A comes preloaded with from the factory. My phone force-auto-upgraded itself to Kitkat 4.4.2 a couple days ago. No issues at all.

    Will S4 camera fit?

    From what I remember hearing (could be really wrong here), the 8MP camera in the Active is the same camera as in the GS3. In which case, they are a different design. The plugs are the same, but board design and plug location would make it a challenge to overcome. If you already have the GS4A...

    Battery Cover?

    Does anyone know where to purchase an OEM battery cover? Mine has a bunch of scratches and I'd like to replace it.

    S4A How many water sensors?

    There's a few. If you want to know, take your phone apart and look. I don't think anyone is going to help you replace them.

    Any regrets on getting the S4 Active vs the S4 ?

    The only thing I seriously regret is getting sucked in by Samsung/AT&T advertising it was waterproof at first. But, I doubt I would have gone with the S4 though.

    Best Ear bugs- very bad hearing

    If all you want is the loudest set of headphones you can find, go to a Best Buy or similar store, and look for the ear buds with the largest driver; usually that's around 13-15mm or so. That said, pretty much any ear bud will get loud enough to not be an issue, even for someone who is hard of...

    s4 active warranty information

    This was pulled from the Sony Xperia Z user manual. Looks like they are even LESS willing to help if you dunk your phone.

    s4 active warranty information

    This is one of my biggest concerns with the whole "water-proof" phone concept. I know there aren't a lot of other water proof or resistant phones out there, but those that are, do they list water damage as a reasonable warranty issue? I don't have time right now to dig, but I'd be interested...

    Case statuses

    Received the TUDIA Ultra Slim Melody on Monday. (One week from order to delivery). Case fits great and feels great. However, there are no molded in grips on the side of the case, like most TPU cases, instead its just smooth. It's still easier to hold than the just the phone, so no real...

    Case statuses

    The coming soon Hula on Casemate looks nice. I may have to give it a try once it drops. For the interim, I bought a cheap TUDIA off Amazon. It was shipping DHL Global Mail, so it's coming from China. It arrived at USPS yesterday and is going USPS Parcel Post, so who knows when I'll see it, but...

    Blue LED light blinks while the screen is off

    Send yourself a text, or have someone else do it. Then see what color the light flashes. Mine was preordered, so it's one of the first ones, maybe there's a running change already? Can I assume you're in the USA? The manual on AT&T' and Samsung's USA websites do not list a specific color...

    Blue LED light blinks while the screen is off

    Here 'ya go. The light blinks much faster (every second or so) when Voice Recording, it blinks every 5-10 seconds when you have a notification or message.

    Do you have urban grey or aqua blue?

    Wanted blue, wimped out and got grey. Will probably get a blue or green case when more (better) ones are out.

    Active runs hot?

    It sounds like you received a defective unit. Mine does run warm, but it definitely doesn't have the same issues yours does. I would return it for another one.
