Is this possible? I also dislike it leaving a preview of the message on the lockscreen. I've never used the stock app, but GOsms...Looks like they changed it a lot now, plus the ability to use the smart features I thought to try it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] theRG:
You can turn off Preview Message in the Messaging Settings to disable message previews on the lock screen and the notifications panel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EVOme:
Great! Now if I can get it to stop turning my screen on and eating my battery!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
no you cant stop it from turning the screen on. just install GoSMS or handcent and turn that feature off
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EVOme:
I use GO, but I want to use stock for all the smart features.

I have just migrated from GS2 to the GS4,

Why cant i move Apps to extSD card to enable me to free-up more of the internal SD memory like i could with the S2??
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noideaforusername:
The option was removed in ics/jb (not sure which version exactly) because Google think that microSD card aren't reliable enough.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxy s2:
I know something called redpill was available for the galaxy note, which changed the external SD card with the internal SD memory and somehow enabled users to move apps across to the external SD Card thought something might be available for the S4 by now??

Couldnt find it in plans, so decided to chat with tmobile rep. this is the outcome.

She told me that i never added the free 500 mbs of free tethering to my account and that she would be able to do that for me at that moment.

So i asked her, do you see any data used for tethering on my account and she said no, so that means that the wifi hotspot work around was doing fine.

Then i asked should i be able to tether if i dont add this service, and she said no. which is wierd because i was tethering when i was speaking to her.

So guys should i add the free 500 mbs of tethering or just leave it as it is?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aLdaRiS:
that is really weird.. since I can see it in plans... I'd say don't change it as its working right now and if it ever stops working which I doubt you could always change it

OK - so ive downloaded intellisync and installed it but for some reason it doesnt want to comunicate with my PC or XDA - any ideas

Was it not meant to run on a XDA I or am i just dumb?

The reason why i switched is because of MS AS inability to actually copy all of my inboxes, absolutly pathetic IMHO

is IS any better?

It would get half way through and then disconnect itself, then i ahve to power on and off again (my XDA) and it would get hung on the same spot - or email i guess, where do you find the settings for IS? adn what wizard should i be using?
[General Topics] iggy:
I switched to IntelliSync as well because I could not get ActiveSync to connect as anything but guest. No problems with connecting to my XDA (make sure that the IntelliSync PocketPC portion is insatlled), works great from home and work. I did have problems using with my PC mainly because IntelliSync does not work with the new outlook versions (I think 2000 or 2002 is the newest it works with).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidrob:
When I looked under the battery cover of my I9505, it doesnt say any country name, it just says "MADE BY SAMSUNG".

The strange thing is, this is a replacement for another i9505, that I returned (mainly) for a rattling volume rocker and the headphone crackling issue. That previous S4 ALSO said "MADE BY SAMSUNG" under the battery cover, no mention of a country on either of these two devices, nor on their boxes. I'll be returning this S4, because it has the same issues but with the added bonus of a dead black pixel, chip on the chrome rim and it gets extremely hot, much more so than the previous model.

Does anyone else's S4 say "Made by Samsung"? Googled it but they all seem to made in either China or Korea or Vietnam...

S4 is on O2 network in U.K.

I see that Brando workshops has a tempered glass protector. 2 versions, one has rounded edges

Has anyone tried these? and compared to the SGP version.

Does the rounded edges make it stronger or just a cosmetic thing?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsteppa:
It's a pity that these things are only made for the front of the device. Make a glass protector for the back too and you won't need another case. Only downside is that it won't fit in the dock anymore.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fasty12:
Interesting

Does not seems to include cut out for the light sensors which could potentially be a problem.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightpt:
You are wrong, it does have the cutouts and works flawlessl at least the rounded edition. In fact it's by far the best screen protector i've ever used.

I've dig up this thread (sorry mods) because before i bought this glass screen protector i was searching the internet for reviews and quite honestly there's barely any info out there about this glass and this very old thread on xda was one of the few i saw on google search and i thought it would be important to add my testimony here.

I also had a spiegen t-slim glass one and it was terrible. It started to chip away from one corner after a couple days of usease and it's definately because it's not rounded in the corners, it's sharp so it was bound to happen. A real piece of trash imho. They wanted to make it extremely slim but it's way too fragile and britle.

On the contrary the Brando one is absolutely wonderfull, rounded, very strong, realy good olephobic coating and realy premium glass feel to the touch. It adds a little to the screen ofc but makes the phone even look more premium. Also, it's not a tight fit to the edges of the phone so most cases will do just fine even with the added glass on the screen. (i use a spiegen ultra case and it's like the added glass is not there at all)

I would definately recomend this glass, just be warned that for people who don't use any kind of bumber or case, it does add a little bit on the screen so it does very very very slightly raise the glass over the edges of the phone if you see it sideways, it's very negligeable but it's there. The advantages outweight that only and slight disadvantage for some people who like the xperia Z "pure and raw".

Case:

Glass:

http://mobile.brando.com/Brando-Wor...d-Edition-Sony-Xperia-Z-_p09597c1586d008.html

So there you go, i'm over the moon with this combo of Spiegen Ultra TPU case and the brando premium glass rounded edition, recomend it to everyone.

Cheers
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ambroos:
So I've had the GLAS.t Slim applied to my phone for nearly three months now and it's been absolutely great. (On top of the shatter-proof sheet.)

Feels really smooth, not a single visible scratch yet (and I keep my phone unprotected in my jeans pocket) and no issues with cracks or proximity sensor or sensitivity.

The back also has the included back protector (just plastic) and has quite some scratches, but that doesn't really matter to me. I can just replace it anyway.

I'd really recommend this to anyone. Remember that you'd best practice a little with cheap screenprotectors since you can only apply these once and they have to be placed right from the first try!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightpt:
Yeah it feels great the problem is the sharp edges. It realy cool until you start using a glass one with rounded edges and then you realise the other it's not as good as you thought, it realy makes a diference.

My Spigen TSlim started to chip away very soon and i know at least 2 guys who happened as well, i'm happy it didnt happen to you.

But you can see even on their site the review comments there's a lot of people asking for a rounded edition, would be much better:

http://www.spigen.com/sony-xperia-z-screen-protector-glas-t-premium-tempered-glass-reviews.html

I have nothing against Spigen T-SLim glass, in fact if they made a rounded edition I would recomend it with no problems since the current sharp version only problems seems to be it's not rounded and smooth on the edges thus more fragile.
[HTC Desire X] soham1990:
There are many new roms coming up, guys are really doin their best to work their rom lyk charm... When a rom is released a new topic is opened, then all the questions are asked over same place ..the topic get flooded with replies.. if the creator adds up any new update to that rom then it gets really hard to find it as it has already gone several pages away..so any guy who wants to find a anything related to that particular rom, then he has to search through several pages to get it..its reallly a headache....

Soo...solution

Themer wil create a new topic for his rom and for his updates and create same name topic in q&a section for discussion... Strictly no posting of any topic related discussion in theme section...any topic related posting in theme section wil be deleted or directly moved to q&a section...

So it wil be lot more easy to find any roms and their updates

What say..?

i really dont understand the meaning of this post but on the line difficult to find updates and all in a rom thread you can simply hit page 1 where devs of rom reserve few posts for future updates and changelog or just hit the << button if its a lot of pages and pronto u get your updates and as for the Q&A goes it just helps us to instantly look upon reviews of the rom and any bugs faced by anyone in the same thread instead of multiple threads... am not criticizing the OP here just a thought:):):)

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kodath:
Hey guys I purchased this case last week and now that I've spent some time with it, I can give my little review of it.

This comes in 4 different colors, blue, navy, white, and pink.

Retails for $29.99

First off it's a very nice slim case that protects all sides of your phone, it has a small lip so it does offer a lay on the table design!

The sides also have a nice feel to it, it's a bit slippery but not as bad as when you're using the phone naked.

The volume and power buttons are super responsive.

The back tends to leave a bit of finger prints, however it wipes off easily.

The camera cut out is perfect, and is recessed. So for those of you who are worried about your lens being scratched, this will protect it!

The top headphone jack port cut out fits all my headphones, so there are no problems there.

There are also cut outs for the IR Blaster, and even a cut out for a phone strap.

The bottom USB port cut out, does not fit all USB connections. I've only found that the Samsung fits, my generic brand ones will not fit.

Let me know if you guys have any other questions, I'll be sure to answer them! :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] coolraghav:
from where i can purchase it? Not available in India yet. What is it made of ?

Thanks for your review mate.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kodath:
I purchased mine from BestBuy. I'm pretty sure you can get these from the Samsung site as well!

As for the material, I believe it is TPU plastic, you can bend it and it's a bit flexible.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vinuneuro:
I've had this case for a couple days as well. Out of all the cases I've had for all the recent phones (S3, Note 2, One), this is BY FAR the best case I've ever used. For those who aren't looking for something seriously rugged like an Otterbox, this case is stunningly good in every way. The material is TPU, but it's very different from any other case of this material I've used. Exceptionally high quality.

-TPU material much higher quality and very different than anything else on the market.

-Grip is very good. Only case I've come across that balances grip and slickness so perfectly. Back is a hybrid between matte and slick but not slippery. The sides are a bit more rubbery, matte and textured.

-Buttons are exceptionally responsive for a TPU case.

-The biggest strength of this case is ergonomics. It just feels perfect in the hand. It's curved perfectly in the right places making it supremely comfortable. The sides have enough flat area to give good grip. Before this I tried the Spigen Neo Hybrid, and imo it defeated the great ergonomics of Samsung phones. By making the back completely flat, it just didn't sit naturally in the hand. The Samsung case is maybe slightly thicker than the Neo Hybrid, but it looks and feels a lot smaller.

-I've got the same Navy color as kodath. It's a very dark blue, looks black in a lot of conditions. The sides are even darker and you can tell it's actually blue and not black occasionally.

I just cannot say enough good things about this product. It is of very serious quality and perfectly executed design.

I bought mine from Staples for $30. Free shipping to store and arrived next day.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Coderedpl:
Hello everyone,

I did not see too many things posted about the Official Samsung Protective Cover + so i figured i'll chime in. I had it on my Note 2 and I liked it, I figured I'll pick it up and see how it is. Just got it earlier today, and so far so good!

I got the Navy Color, and as you see it looks black in certain angles.

I picked it up at radio shack (they had 3 different colors [white, light blue and navy] ), staples supposedly has the navy, and offcourse the official samsung site:

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] trmiv:
Nice looking case, looks like it fits great. I like that blue color. How protective would you say it would be for minor drops (taking out of pocket, getting out of car and forgetting phone is on your lap and it hits the ground)?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] imablackhat:
Would be good for small average two to three feet I'd say. I use screen protector as well. It has a decent lip so it doesn't sit on the screen when you put it face down. It's not bulky. But it protects. I just don't want to test it over my head face down. Who would?

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] trmiv:
Got the light blue version of this case today. Very nice case. The fit is great as you'd expect, and it keeps the phone super slim. Buttons are very responsive in the case. As far as protection, it looks like it would protect in a small drop, but I wouldn't want that to happen over concrete.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] RTbar:
Even though this case was nearly perfect, I returned it simply because I wanted black and also because the back scratched easily. The fit and button feel was excellent though, and it didn't interfere with my glas.tr
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tenaciousj:
Didn't notice this on the site and just got it. I got the SGP Neo Hybrid now, works good looks good but its just a little too bulky for my liking. If anyone wants it I'll sell it for $20 shipped, about 3 days of use on it.
