    What happened to the ir blaster?

    Oh no no no. I had every TV in my house programmed on my phone. I had my parents VCR/DVR players and TV. Same with my grandparents. Towards the end my grandparents were ALWAYS messing up the order of working those devices. I would just select the house profile I wanted and could control all of...

    HTC One: Do you honestly need a screen protector?

    Re: Do you honestly need a screen protector? For me, No. My last few phones never had any problems. I didn't even have a case for my last phone. It had chips and scratches all over it from drops, but the screen never had a scratch on it. I had screen protectors at one time. It would get...

    I regret replacing my Note 2 with the GS4.

    You sound like you probably know these phones better than I do. I don't seem to have camera lag, as a matter of fact, most of the people that use my phone to take a picture wonder if it took one. They tap the button and it doesn't appear anything happens. It barely outlines the edge of the...

    I am posting an unpopular stance - the S4 is a very nice phone but...

    I don't disagree with you at all. I'm someone that doesn't have a harem of phones though, and this thing is ?the next big thing? if you're coming from older phones. For anyone that gets a phone every 2 years with their contract or the like, this is a huge improvement and is what phones should...

    Samsung Galaxy S4 Inductive Charging

    My first thoughts are multiple devices. Especially if you're talking about devices with different style ports. A charging mat on the coffee table or end table in the living room, so everyone in the family can drop multiple devices on it, no matter which plug they take. It would be nice to get...

    Music on the he GS4

    I picked my s4 up the other day, and just took my 32G SD card out of my HTC Thunderbolt and slapped it into the S4. My SD card already had folders that were created by the Thunderbolt. My music was on the SD card in the folders \media\audio and it all pulled up in my player without any...

    Does the Galaxy S4 fix the "Rotated Images" problem?

    I didn't know about this issue, since I came over from an HTC Thunderbolt I had for 2 1/2-3 years. It's kind of strange that the S4 has this issue, considering everything else it can do, and seems to do well. This feels like a basic issue that smartphones have handled for years. All these new...

    How to auto rotate picture?

    I'm giving you a bump because I just picked up the S4 a few days ago and it seems to have some rotation issue with the pictures. I assume it's a setting I messed up. When taking pictures and viewing them on the phone, they seem to be fine, but when I (DNLA) shared them on my TV or hardwire the...

    IF Verizon has no 32gb S4, what will you do?

    I picked up the 16G model and just threw the 32G SD card from my old phone into it. All my music videos and such were already there, so I didn't much care about the exact size of the phones storage. I was already depending on the SD card for the majority of my storage, The 16G on the phone is...

    TV Out for S4

    Anyone know if the S4 supports DLNA? I picked mine up yesterday, so I am just digging into the good stuff. I've barely finished setting up all the basics the way I like them. Now onto the fun stuff.

    Turn off tap sound when typing? Driving me nuts!

    That was what I was looking for. I had everything adjusted about right, and I couldn't get the stupid keyboard to quit making tap-tap-tap while I was texting. Speaking of annoying, a person at the store still had their droid set to the robot voice "DROID" with every notification. She was also...
