I got the S4 about a year ago and used it every day almost constantly. I used it as a phone, GPS (google maps), web access (chrome), and other apps. I had switched from a DINC 2 to the S4. At first I thought it was awesome but over the course of a few weeks/months the performance had gotten...

When I go to settings -> more -> about phone -> software update it says "Status last checked on 4:05 PM 09/28/2013" When I click "Check Now" I get: Service Unavailable Software update is temporarily unavailable. Try again later. I've been getting this for weeks. Any ideas what could be wrong...

Every time I install an update for Maps my map shortcuts/widgets get wiped out. I then have to re-add them. Is there a way to keep this from happening?

On my HTC Incredible 2 I was able to long press an image on a website and select "share". That would bring up a list of apps I could select from to share the photo. I don't get a "share" option on the S4. Is there another way to do this on the S4?

Is there a way to set a different wallpaper for each homescreen?

This should be simple but I can't figure it out. I want to place an icon/shortcut on one of my screens so that when I press it it opens navigation and guides me home. I'd like one for work and other locations too. How do I do this?

My Samsung S4 arrives tomorrow. So glad to (soon) be off HTC.

Is there a way to edit the list that appears when I want to "share" and image?

I had a DINC ... LOVED it ... moved to a DINC 2 ... it's OK. I'm due for an upgrade. What's the next logical progression? Does HTC have a new one coming out in the next 4-5 months? I like HTC and the DINC 2 is fine so I'm in no big hurry.

How do I select a custom ringtone for a contact? Does it need to be placed in a certain place on the phone for it to show up on the ringtone screen?

Has anyone here switched from an Incredible or Incredible 2 to the RAZR? How do you like the RAZR in comparison?

Since I couldn't get gingerbread installed on my DINC, VZW sent me a dinc 2. I've had it about 2 weeks. On my DINC, if I got an email with a phone number in it I could click the number and it would dial it (or at least take me to the phone app and the number was loaded so I just hit "call")...

please stop

Another fine example of why I don't come here too often. Stop moving my threads.
