Just wanted to thank you albiet two years after making this post. My phone died just 3 days before I was set to return it to Google for cash towards a new Pixel 2 XL. You are a hero.

Had the same problem. After taking my SD card out, everything is now fine strangely enough. How is your new S5 thus far? Perhaps I might be better off replacing my phone. I am not really having anymore problems, but I also don't have my SD card in the phone...

For me, most of the time (but not all of the time) when I want to view a photo from camera to viewer it will take about a second. The issue I have is when I open Samsung's included Gallery Software cold - EVERYTIME it will take at least a minute to open. Additionally, I have taken out my 2...

I believe this might be the culprit: How to fix the flaws of the Samsung Galaxy S5 - Gadget Guy Australia. "The issue is this: when opening Samsung’s gallery app on the Galaxy phones, it takes minutes — not seconds, but rather a minute or more — to let you access your pictures. There have...

Personally, I am coming from a Galaxy Epic 4G where in order to wake it from sleep I'd have to pick the phone up then fumble awkwardly for the power button. Hence, I am really liking the home button. In fact I am still picking the phone up to wake it from sleep due to force of habit.

OMG are you me?! My upgrade is on the same day and I've been having the same issues with my phone that you have with my Epic 4g. I've also had to purchase a dedicated alarm clock because the phone will freeze over night. However I will be getting an S3 because I have heard stellar reports of...

Just as an aside, I was at the Rose Bowl last weekend when my Epic took its first big spill off my lap as I stood up. I picked my phone up off that extremely rough concrete surface and saw NO scratches on it at all. The phone fell off lap, slid on very rough concrete, and not a scratch on the...

No mine is a random slash on the P button. Like a forward slash on the same button where the backslash is located.

That is strange. My phone went through an OTA auto update and I still have 4G service here in Anaheim CA, this past weekend in Austin TX as well.

Well thats what he *said*. And my own 8 mb/s claim was achieved once and rounded up from about 7.7. Still pretty good I think!

Forgot to mention that I am in Anaheim CA. A guy at a Sprint store near here said he got 11 mb/s down. I had no 4g service at the gf's in Marina Del Rey however. As a comparison, I get around 23 mb/s down when on my wifi connection.

I've been getting 4G since close to launch and have gotten speeds around 8mb/s down.

I have one on my keyboard as well. It came with the phone right on the "\" key. Whats that about!?!

I tried both Invisible Shield and Body Guardz for my Pre, and the Body Guardz just seemed like a cheaper version of the Invisible Shield. The orange peel affect was far too great for me to keep them on. Responsiveness also took a hit IMO, but it looks like people here are having much better...

Yes please do!
