Heading to Verizon to pick up the S5, but will also look @ the HTC One M8. Quick last-minute thoughts on one over the other?

M8 has better sound quality but besides that the S5  beats it hands down.

Check out the wiki in the "Favorite Android Apps" thread. There are some quite useful apps there.

Awesome.  I use it frequently and charge it every day and a half or two days.  I personally turn off location unless I need it.  Very fast as well

Any recommendations for cases/clips/holsters?

I need something that I can clip onto my belt.

For a case, UAG is the best IMO. My S3 UAG case (not clip or holster) has endured many falls without a scratch b"h.

Thanks I have the Seido for my S3 as well. I'ts $48 for the Dilex case/holster combo on Amazon. That's a bit pricey IMO, looking for something cheaper.

I need a holster. I already keep my BB in my pocket.. no room for 2 phones.

Personally, I don't see the need to spend for a brand holster. I have a Maxboost for my S4, costs less than $10 on Amazon and it serves the purpose.

Any way to have the home screen pages go in a full loop? On my S3 I could go from the last page to the first page by swiping right again, on the S5 it seems I need to swipe left until I return to the first page.

I like something that clips in rather than slides in.
