Received mine this afternoon. Initial impressions are extremely positive. Some quick questions that an online search so far isn't helping:
1. How do I mute keyboard sounds?
Under settings
General
Language and Input
Android keyboard (settings)
Uncheck "Sound on keypress"
Lg Keyboard (settings)
Touch Feedback
Uncheck Sound feedback
2. How do I set up visual voicemail?
Don't know I never do that...I never use my phones to talk

so no one calls me.
3. How do I pull up Google Now?
Hold down the home button or assign it to the QuickButton or just use the blue app that says "google"
4. Why are all these Google Play icons showing up in my menu bar? How do I get rid of them and or stop them from appearing again?
I don't have that.
I'll probably have more later tonight. My immediate two cons are the inability to turn off LTE and not being able to remove the QSlide Apps icon from the notification shade entirely.
