Sorry if that was discussed. Long thread and search came up with nothing.

Before my last software update my phone remembered the words not in the dictionary that I had typed in before. Now it doesn't recall a single word. What's the best way to fix this?

I have a Sonata and when the phone connects you can toggle on the car between phone and music. On phone it's okay but when I switch to music things start playing automatically.

Not sure if it was discussed but the story with sonatas and bluetooth is not a rosy one. Be it blackberry, iphone, galaxy 3 and 4.

Mine works fine with my S4.

Couldn't find any responses regarding the battery life. Am I the only one that finds the battery draining way too fast/ Much faster than the advertised time. Mine usually dies around 4-5 with little use and a full charge in the morning.

Do you have good service (bars) most of the day?

That's probably it.  I've had the Verizon S4 since its launch in May and the battery is amazing IMO (At least the first half year).

Do you mean because the phone is constantly searching for better service?

Yup, I used to have Sprint - they had awful service where I live - and my phone's battery used to drain in a matter of hours (Wasn't the S4 though).

Not sure this is the right thread but... I currently have the S2. I love the phone and its size but I had it for 2 years and it's time for a new one. I would get the S4 or the Note but they're huge. Is there a comparable phone out there that's smaller? I've been looking into the Moto X but it seems very behind the Samsungs in terms of features.

Perfect. Now I just need to wait for the AT&T version.

Is there a way to change an app name? Some are annoying by what they call them, throwing the alphabetizing off eg: bluebird is "My Bluebird" making it an M instead of the intuitive B.
TIA

If you use an alternate launcher, such as Nova Launcher, you can change the names of apps. Or you can check out this app, mixed reviews.
