Can someone show me some tips and tricks with this phone? I did some searches but couldn't find anything special. I'm coming from an iPhone 5s. I'm looking for something more than customization. I'm able to change my home screen around but I want to see what all the hoopla is all about with these android phones. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Search YouTube for customizing/launchers. I learned about it after watching one from ColdfusTion.

Thank you for your quick response but I'm not looking to customize my phone as I like it the way it is. I'm not into adding apps that kill the battery because it constantly runs in the back ground. I'm looking for something out of the ordinary.

Thanks again!

Not sure I know what you mean by "out of the ordinary."

Could you elaborate?

Not sure what I mean either... Lol. My friends keep bragging about how Android is so much better than the iPhone, so I went out and purchased an s5. Was hoping it would open up a portal to a new dimension or something like that. Lmao

I do want to say that I'm loving the screen size and the phone being water proof. Not sure what dust proof is... Never had a phone go bad on me due to dust.... Lmao

It is useful if you go in dusty environments. And the screen size is great. It is a good size for a phone, not too big but not too small.

I live in dusty environments. I agree the screen size is perfect. I played with the note 3 demo and felt it to be a bit too big for the pocket.
