    Bad experience

    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...

    Facebook app

    Every once in a while I get a notification asking me to login to facebook to sync. I click on the notification and it takes me to a FB app that wants me to log in. I back out of this, go to my homescreen and open the FB app I have there. It opens and I'm logged in. I checked that I only have...

    Help Sharing images on web pages

    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?

    Help Navigation

    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?

    Company that does the most upgrades

    I love HTC phones but HTC SUCKS at releasing upgrades. Are other carriers like this or is there one or two that release upgrades regularly? I really want to stick with HTC (the DNA looks so nice) but their inability to roll out upgrades drives me nuts.

    Next Phone

    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.

    3g Coverage: Sprint vs Boost vs Virgin

    I'm currently on Sprint and fairly happy with the 3g coverage. I'm thinking of moving to Virgin or Boost. I hear (through this forum) that I will see a decrease in coverage if I switch to Virgin. Is this the same with Boost? And while I'm here ... which is better in general ... Boost of...

    I'm currently on Sprint. Should I expect the same exact coverage and performance if I switch to Virgin?

    Help Brand new dinc 2. can't click phone numbers to dial in email

    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")...

    Folder icon

    This can't be as hard as I'm making it. I'm using stock Gingerbread with sense 2.1. How do I change the icon for the folder? I use bettercut to change the icons for shortcuts and apps but can't figure out how to change the icon for a folder.

    Help Volume control

    I want to set my phone to ring only. I don't want any other notifications (text, email, etc.) to make any noise or vibrate. No matter what I do, when I set the Ringer Volume the Notification Volume gets set to the same value. This is driving me nuts. WTF am I doing wrong?

    I started a thread to let people know that their SD card may end up needing to be reformatted and now the thread is gone. No note from a mod. No sign of it being moved. Where is it?
