    It seems I cannot re-produce the issue on two S4 phones.

    Not sure about this issue.

    You should use Kies 3 to backup all files, especially Story albums, to your PC. The following operations will delete all your albums in your S4.

    After backup, you can go to applications manager–all–story albums, try to clear cache. Then try again.

    If story album still does not work, you have to try to clear cache and clear data for story album. It should work now, but all your old story albums will be deleted as well. So, backup, backup first.

    you need make sure your fingers are moving over the sensor. The moving also should not be too fast.

    simon

    First, you can list down what the missed features are. Then talk to the vendor, or local Samsung service centre. They should either give a replacement or fix the problem (depending on local regulations)

    Please note, not all functions are available in all regions. Some functions may be removed in some specific regions (for all kinds of reasons).

    Us carriers only have SPH-L720 (I9500 equivalent). You have no options.

    Most CPU info apps or system info apps can output the info.

    This setting dictates how long your screen will be lighted up after your last usage.

    Did you check screen timeout settings? (Settings–My device-Display–Screen timeout)

    August 2, 2013 at 11:49 am in reply to: Always Pendding to download Software UPDATE…? #1084
    simon
    Keymaster

    it usually means the connection to the update server has some problems.

    Connection through Kies on your computer is more resilent. So, you can download and install Kies to your PC. Now you can start Kies on your PC and then connect your S4 to the PC using the USB cable. You can then backup and update your S4.

    August 1, 2013 at 11:43 am in reply to: Always Pendding to download Software UPDATE…? #1082

    Try to use Kies.

    July 10, 2013 at 12:11 pm in reply to: Story album cost #457
    simon
    Keymaster

    the pricing will be available before checking out. In different regions, the price may be different.

    For your reference, the price is similar to: http://www.blurb.com/pricing

    You can edit the album later. You can remove, adjust and move photos,as well as change themes. But it seems I did not find where to add new photos.

    July 2, 2013 at 1:17 pm in reply to: What is a GOOD manual for S4? #389
    simon
    Keymaster

    You need apps.

    For iTunes to Android, if the music is protected by DRM, unlikely, you cna ply it on Android. There are many sync apps for this, for example, Synctunes free for iTunes (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mahmed.net.synctuneswirelessfree&hl=en)

    Never used Zune, no idea.

    There are better solutions (under settings–more networks–tethering and portable hotspot):
    1. wifi hotspot
    2. USB tethering
    3. Bluetooth tethering

    May 13, 2013 at 12:23 pm in reply to: Anyone else having this problem? #296
    simon
    Keymaster

    Such problem is very hard to track/solve. Hardware or software or the combination can be the cause. You may talk with the local Samsung service center to get a replacement.

    Did you install any new widgets recently?

    The local model for Belgium is I9505.

    I9500/I9505 is supposed to support all 4G (LTE) bands and work globally. But some of them may be not activated in some regional models. That is the reason it is safe to buy local models.

    Yes, most users probably prefer I9500, but only 20-30% S4 is I9500; almost all others are I9505.

    For I9500, the CPU is better (for CPU intensive apps/games; for most users/apps, almost no differences) and the DAC (Wolfson) is better (arguable).
