Hi Everyone, I just bought my SGS4 on AT&T, a few days ago. There are really a lot of things I love about it, but these few things that I've gotten accustomed too on my Atrix 4G, I can't even do on this phone.
1) I have paired my bluetooth head set successfully, but every time I turn on bluetooth, a box pops up that says "Bluetooth" with my device name and the paired bluetooth device. (I only have one paired). I have to select my bluetooth device and another popup box ask for permission to connect with device. There has got to be an easier and simpler way of doing this. My old phone, once device was paired, I only had to turn on bluetooth and the paired device and it connected without any other action from me.
2) So I got the 16GB version, which was the same storage as my old phone. Right out of the box, I had just over 9 GB of internal storage. Is this right? I mean, I copied all of my files and data from my old phone to this one and I have only 700MB left and I'm not even halfway finish installing my old apps. I have a 32 GB SD card with over 9 GB free space, but can't move any apps/data to it.
3) So I am using "Gmail" and "YaHoo!" mail apps for my emails. I can't find any setting on the phone, or in the apps themselves, as to how often I want it to check for new emails. I receive notifications all thru the day every time a new email comes in. (This is so frustrating) Anyway to select how often to check/sync new emails? I prefer every 4 hrs or manually to check.
4) Any way to end third party apps? My old phone had a stock Task Manager that I could select 3rd party apps to end when the screen timed out.
Thanks for all your help.
