    Help Anyway to get stock Android contacts and dialers?

    One thing that drives me mad about the S4 is the way the contact and dialer apps diverge from stock Android. I particularly hate that the swipe gestures that are present in all the other Android apps are not available. Anyway to fix this?

    Help Backing up NOVA and Apex

    I just finished doing a factory reset, which was motivated by the recent software upgrade. I am on VZW and wanted the WiFi button in the pull down dialog. I dutifully backed up both of the third party launchers I have (Apex and Nova), made sure everthing possible was set to back up to my...

    Getting Sick Good reception

    Just took my S4 on a long road trip through Utah and was absolutely shocked at how good the reception was. I'm standing on a ridge above the amphitheater at Bryce Canyon getting full LTE coverage. I actually posted a photo of myself on FACEBOOK from the top of Angels Landing in Zion. I was...

    Help Restoring Blocking Mode on Verizon S4

    As those of you who have VZW S4's know, Verizon has very kindly disabled "blocking mode" which is a potentially useful feature. The reason they disable it is clear - they want you to buy their own number blocking service. Of course there are third party apps to do this, but it crazy for us to...

    Help Managing the Ringer at night

    So, on my Droid 3, I used an application called "Silent Sleep" that automatically turns the ringer off at night. The problem I have though is that it prevents emergency calls from getting through. Last night, mom mad a late night trip to the ER and I slept right through it. Is there an...
