Hello! I really need to get rid of the "This Sim card is from an Unknown source" error on my Verizon Galaxy S4. I am abroad, and Verizon lied to me about the phone being unlocked for use with an international SIM card, so I rooted it and I am trying to unlock it myself. I installed CWM and I...

Hello! I will be traveling to Australia for six months in a few days, so I need to buy a power adapter. However, does anybody know if I also need a voltage converter? I have heard that new devices will convert the voltage for you, but I'd really rather not fry my S4. Thank you!

Hello! I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or knows how to fix it. My emails have stopped updating on my S4. I didn't change any of the settings, and I still have the phone set to receive new emails every 15 minutes, but not only does it not do this, I am also never notified...

Hey everyone! I just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced a very fast blinking screen in direct sunlight? Whenever I use my phone outside, the screen blinks really rapidly and I can't look at it for too long. I don't know if this is a hardware issue or not. Also, the brightness outside...

Thanks, I just disabled maps, so hopefully it will last longer tomorrow!

Re: Is verizon Samsung GS4 GSM unlocked for international use ? I don't know if this will help you, but I just talked to a verizon rep on the phone to find this out because I am going abroad in the fall, and she told me that all of their 4G phones are "global ready" which means they will work...

Hello! This is just a minor annoyance that I realized my old Android phone also had. In your app panel, there is always one missing app on the bottom right corner, even though there are more on the next page. Is there any way to fix this to make it so the apps are continuous and every page is...

Hey, I just got my S4 yesterday, and so far, with all the calls that I have made, each person on the other end has experienced the same thing: My voice cuts out on their end and they can't hear me. It works fine at the beginning of the call, then nobody can hear me. Did I get a bad phone? Is the...
