    Update?

    I woke up to an update on my 8.4. Don't notice any significant changes and can't find any info online. About 190 mb. Edit - while typing this post I pressed the menu key and this message popped up, "the menu key has been replaced by the recent key". Not sure what's different as all my...

    Bought it last week...

    Love it so far except battery life. The 8.4 has essentially replaced my laptop. Has anyone noticed the Samsung Music Player (Music) is always running. I rarely use my tab for music (plenty of other gadgets for that) so it's not as if I'm leaving the app open yet it is always on when I check...

    Help Quarter of texts not being delivered since update?

    Seems, as to be expected of Verizon, that my awesome phone has all sorts of issues now that I received the most recent "update". On top of the lag I'm experiencing (different post) about 25% of my texts fail to be delivered forcing me to long press and "resend". Anyone else?

    Help Lag since the update?

    Anyone else experiencing lag since last weeks update? My phone is definitely not as snappy as it was before I updated. Normally I would do a factory reset but with 4.3 on its way (I know, it could take a while) I don't want to have to set up my phone twice in a short period of time. So, any...

    Help Good 4g signal...extremely slow speeds?

    I just can't spend any more time on the phone with Verizon so any help would be greatly appreciated. According to Verizon my 4g signal strength is great (between -80 dBm and -90 dBm). However, my download speeds are hovering between 0.1 and 0.25 Mbps consistently. Sometimes I can barely...

    Help Update destroyed 4g speed!

    Has anyone else noticed a significant drop in their 4g speed since the update? My download speeds are now hovering between 0.1 - 0.5 Mbps on speedtest. More often than not I cannot even get a speed to upload as it won't connect. If anyone else is in downtown San Franciso, has an s4, and...

    Help Browser zoom?

    I can't seem to adequately zoom in to web pages (desktop view) with this phone. When I double tap on a website it barely zooms in. In portrait I can't read the text. Is this a Samsung thing (double tap not really working)? I'm coming from an HTC so Samsung/Touchwiz is new to me. What's the...

    Help SMS Issue - Call back number included in every text?

    Help Apps Safe to Disable?

    Does anyone have a list of apps that are safe to disable? I'm coming from an HTC and Samsung has a lot of bloatware I don't recognize. Don't want to screw this thing up!

    Replacing Rezound

    Planning on replacing my Rezound but don't want to lose my unlimited data. Don't want to buy a stolen or trashed phone from Craigslist or EBay. Against my better judgement and to fulfill my need for a new shiny object I've decided to buy a new phone at the retail price. My question is, can I...

    I've been searching for a solution since the update and can't find anything, hopefully somone here can help. When I try to type into the Google homepage search box (using the Samsung native browser) my keyboard is barely usable in landscape. The first letter I type seems to be okay, but then...

    Help Export or Save Playlists?

    Is there a way to export or save my playlists to my SD card? I just did a factory reset (which I do occasionally when things are getting laggy) and lost all my playlists. I'd like to be able to save them. I use the stock music player. Thanks!

    Help Gmail App - predictive text covers what you are trying to type!

    When I am typing an email in landscape mode, the predictive text shows up right over what I am trying to type so I can no longer see what I am typing. Anyone else? Any ideas how to reposition either the predictive text or the text I am typing?
