Smart alert - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

So I've noticed that if I stuff my phone up in my visor area of my car the smart alert won't vibrate when I grab it, anyone know why? Does the phone have to be on a flat surface when you retrieve it? I thought maybe a certain time had to elapse before the smart alert kicked in but that doesn't seem to be the case...

Lose screen

Anyone else notice that when tapping the top half the screen it feels like it's slight loose? I just activated it an hour ago :-\

Shake it it does the same sound.. I thought it was the screen but I'm thinking it's the lens in the camera clicking around.
I just posted about this in another thread but now I'm curious are only some phones doing this or is it just the way the phone is. It doesn't seem like a big a deal but for a $600 phone I would expect it not to rattle when I touch it
No noise or rattling on my phone..

No noise here neither but I notice that bottom of the screen is collecting dust and if I look closed enough I can see a gap between the screen and the bezel I wonder if tmobile would replaced my unit

try re-activating it. Also try a factory reset, should solve your loose screen problem.

I does... same noise when I shake it. Kind of ridiculous. It hasn't even been outside yet. I'm still rocking the LTE

Why automatic speaker phone when dialing out

So I dial.out once EVO LTE rings it rings directly from the speakerphone
Is this normal or a way to change it in settings

I really can't understand what you said. Clarify please?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Simple...
Every time I make a normal call as soon as the person or whomever answers I can hear them on speaker phone
I look down on the dialer screen and it auto enables The rear speaker
Ifl I click it off call goes to Normal ear speaker
This happens every time I call anyone
And no I am not enabling speakerp phone prior to dialing
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Well in this case, I have no idea but I can tell you that is NOT the normal, stock behavior of this phone. Are you rooted, and do have any custom ROMs installed?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
No everything works fine elsewise
Brand new phone
Strangest sh** I've ever seen
Annoying to
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Weird. I've personally never seen a setting for that behavior. I'd bring it to Sprint of no one on here knows. They will either show you the way to change it, or replace it for you.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Are you flipping your phone face down after dialing? Because doing that automatically turns on speakerphone.

Anyway to remove the emergency dialer on the lick screen

Title says it all. I keep on touching this accidentally, its driving me crazy

What are you talking about? Is this with stock or something? Just use TouchWiz lockscreen if so, much better anyway.

I think this screen is what he is taking about. You have it when you have a pin code lock like my work email app requires. It can get annoying.

What I would like to see

I have to take notes on my 2 when using the phone. Sure would be nice if the speaker phone would automatically turn on when I pull the stylus to scribble a note. Looked for a setting and searched to try and find a mod that does this. If you know how to do this please let me know. Thx. GA

What a brilliant idea. I'll be watching this thread

I'd say if an app could do it it'd be this one:

I use Bluetooth a lot during the day, and especially when I want to take notes during a phone call. Speaker is nice, but not always loud/clear enough to use regularly.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
I modded my output volumes so speaker is pretty loud now. No problems hearing. Even with my old ears. Lol

Thanks, I downloaded tasker, but it takes a pretty steep learning curve to use it. Reviewing utube vids to try and figure it out. If you have it down, maybe you can post the steps to have it turn on the speaker when the phone is in use and the stylus is pulled. Thanks.

I just don't know how to set a context involving pen detection. my only problem with Tasker is figuring out how to get it automate features that are particular to this phone such as the s pen and multi Window

Something similar happened to my sisters g3 two days ago. She pulled down the notification but it only came half way and the phone froze. A battery pull was the only way to fix it, thankfully it hasn't happened since.

Thanks for your help. I think when I put this otter box symmetry on I had some dust or something messing it up. I took it off and it immediately started working. Blew the case out with duster and now I'm good.

That's interesting. My sister doesn't have a case yet so I guess her issue must be different. Btw if it happens again enable developer mode and show touches, maybe your case is causing ghost touches.

Only freeze up I've had was when i was using the camera. Took some pics, recorded a video, took some more pics, exited camera app, phone froze up and i had to pull the battery. I've tried to reproduce it but can't.

So far up to date everything is smooth as silk on this bad boy. Just that stupid feedback when the head jack is plugged in and I can here feedback when I press certain areas our buttons.

Good thinking on the developer options. That might come in handy if I need to take it back to best buy. I've got the headphones Jack issues plugging it into my car stereo as well. Software can fix that so no big deal.
