    Led notification light in DND

    I am on a different carrier and it's the same for my phone. It's been bugging the crap out of me since I got the phone. My S4 has way more options in the DND settings and worked so much better. Hopefully an update fixes this, otherwise it's an almost useless feature.

    Wow, what great battery life

    Only had mine for a week but I am really impressed with the battery life. I wake up at 4:40am, take my watch off the charger and by the time I am home from work around 5pm, I still have 40-50% battery left. To me that's really impressive, especially since I probably am messing with the watch a...

    Will PdaNet/Foxfi wireless tethering work for Sprint Samsung S4 non-rooted?

    I am not rooted and PDAnet works just fine in USB tether mode and bluetooth works as well. I have noticed a few weird quirks though. A few apps say there is no internet connection but browsing works just fine. I do have the paid version.

    Internet browsing while talking?

    Thanks all, like I said my searching skills weren't up to the task. I should have just known. Still love the phone and not going back.

    Internet browsing while talking?

    Just switched from the GS3 yesterday, on that phone I could talk and surf the internet at the same time on 3G. Looks like you can't do that with the GS4? I did some searching but couldn't find anything related, my google-fu must not be good enough.

    Will i be able to update to jelly bean if my device is rooted?

    I don't know if this helps at all but, I rooted using the steps Skunkape60 posted, the one with the touch enabled recovery. Today, I manually downloaded the update for JB, used rootkeeper to backup root, then did the update. When it was done updating, it took me back to the touch enabled...

    Anyone Switching Over to the Surface RT?

    No but, I will get a pro when it comes out. I need a new Windows machine to do the things I can't do with Android, and I prefer the tablet format over a laptop or desktop. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
