I have had the S4 for almost 2 years. It runs slower than I remember and the biggest problem is terrible battery drain. It is not a battery problem because I have gotten a new battery. So I want to wipe the phone, reinstall the same current Verizon version OS and reinstall just the apps I really...

Does anybody else notice that when the 360 is disconnected for an extended period of time it won't ever reconnect when back in range? This happens to me consistently when I sleep in a different room out of range from my watch that is charging over night. The next morning it never connects again...

I haven't gotten it to work in the last dozen attempts, so I think either my skin is impenetrable or it doesn't work. Oh well not an important feature for me. Posted via Android Central App

Anyone having problems with the heart rate monitor? I got it too work a couple of times but generally it doesn't work. I see the green laser coming out of the holes. I can't make the band any tighter. I was actually thinking of adding a link. Kind of annoying although not something I really care...

Same question. I got it too. I installed it, but I don't notice any differences. The link to change notes on Verizon's site went no where. Posted via Android Central App

After updating to 4.3, at least daily I get a Security Notice notification saying "unauthorized access to a secured area has..." . It then prompts me to download a new security policy which doesn't seem to do anything. Anyone else get this or know how to troubleshoot it? Posted via Android...

If you want that then you can use a non - stock dialer and contacts app. I don't see those options in 4.3. Posted via Android Central App

I have been getting some bad battery life. I have the batteryguru app with most things turned on, gps off. I am at 56% after 3 hours 5 minutes. The screen is the biggest contributor at 34% and 45 minutes of on time. Second is my podcast player at 23%. Any suggestions? Can't figure out how to...

Don't they all appear in the list? Or do you mean the ones you haven't installed yet? Posted via Android Central App

Yes that Is what I was hoping for. I am used to that on my former blackberry phone. Just a small annoyance .

That sounds like what I want. I will try that next time.

On my previous phone I could either answer, send a call to voicemail or ignore. Ignoring would silence the call and return you to what you were doing. It is handy when busy and not letting the caller know that you don't want to talk to them. Anyway to do this?

Thanks. The questions is how do you prevent it from auto updating in the future?

Yes I have had the exact same problems many times. A few times I could get back to the navigation but often I lose the map and you just get the voice instructions. I am going to go back to the old version. I see no advantage in this update. Not sure how to go back though.
