The battery+spare battery charging system says it works with all carriers including VZW.

The regular battery has NFC though it doesn't show VZW.

Either way I'm getting the charger kit tomorrow thanks to the 50% off coupon and will let you know.

Works perfectly!
Even tested the NFC to confirm.
Truly the best accessory out there for the S4.

Just register your phone for the 50% off accessories coupon.  Good for up to 5 accessories and there's free shipping on $50+

Seems like the version above has a bug and doesn't support MMS.
But this previous version appears to work perfectly for me (Open link on phone with browser app): http://concentriclivers.com/android/Messaging-4.0.3-8.apk
the only problem is it does not light up when you get a message

Things I fixed:
-Added stock JB messaging app. Much cleaner and messages now show up in notifications.
-Added stock JB keyboard with Swype and autocorrect.

How did you get the stock apps? I couldn't slove it yet

I have my S4 for a month now and it seems like it is going slower then it was when it was new.
Anyone else having this issue? Anything to do to fix it?

Sometimes just one specific app will be making it run slow.

Of course I installed apps. Still it's acting a lot slower then I would want it to.
