No, just the icon that pulled up the calendar that came preloaded.

I just did this, lets hope it works.

Same here, and I returned the phone and they sent me a new one (battery included). Appears to be a bit better now. But, today I noticed backup-assistant running like mad, 80% battery already with only being up about 1 hour. Advanced Task Killer/Manager appears to have no impact on actually...

Re: Calender issues... Events not saving. My wife had issues where she wasn't receiving invites from me, even though my calendar woudl say 'invites sent'. She had to go make changes in her google calendar on the PC to enable this. You may want to have her start there, just validate overall...

I have had the same issue for a few days now where I'd push a number, and nothing would happen. Frustrating. So, I went into 'settings' while in the phone, and put DTMF from Normal to Long, and it works for me. Lame.

Re: How do you track down, corner and KILL Verizon Backup Assista I also can only clear cache and force stop (from my phone), no ability to disable - grayed out.

Since having my phone for a few months, I've decided to make a warranty claim on it for the following reasons, lets hope the new phone they're sending me works better: 1. Horrible battery life, battery was in the red after 8 hours yesterday - I'm not a heavy user 2. Reception sucks, continued...

And here I thought they were spamming you with spelling mistakes! HA I did get a few texts and e-mails, more than anticipated, I just pretend they like me.

When I turn off 'sync' from the notification area, I believe that also disables synching for my gmail, FB, Twitter....etc. Is that correct?

I suppose you could globally turn off the auto-sync - my contacts are up on the Verizon website anyway. Maybe a monthly reminder to turn it on, sync, then turn it off?

I don't get why the wifi button is not in the notifications, when everything and it's mother are in there. I simply installed a widget to control this, but it's just another widget on my phone....

I bought one of these to see how I liked it, and I love it. Will be ordering a couple more so when I do ding it up, I will be switching it out. Not a bad price and free shipping: 1x Anti-Glare Matte Screen Guard Protector Film For Samsung Galaxy S3 SIII i9300 | eBay

Can this be done? I have all of it turned off, except contacts, and I constantly see my phone trying to backup videos, pictures...etc. No need for me. This is annoying. Any help is appreciated!

I have found S-Voice to be lacking in all areas. Not real impressive IMHO.

I don't know, my DX battery was smoked when I went onto wifi. So I figure I would save battery and only use wifi if I needed to. Besides, I'm paying for the Verizon network, so I will be using it.
