Samsung Galaxy S4 update brings move to SD, HDR video capture - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General

Searched for this thread, but didn't find it. Apologies if this is a repost.
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s4_update_brings_move_to_sd_hdr_video_capture-news-6170.php
Samsung got some heat for how much free storage is available on the Galaxy S4 out of the box and the company promised to look for ways to increase it. A new update that hit S4s in Germany is a step in the right direction.
The update (XXUBMEA) weighs in at 366MB and after installing it you get 9.23GB of free storage, up from 9.15GB (on a 16GB model). It's not much, but the update does bring a proper way to free up some space – you can now move apps to the microSD card.

Yea even though this is a German update it shows they are going to add this back in. This will most likely not hit the states for a bit though.

I don't see why there would be any sort of significant delay, they're just slowly rolling them out all over the place at the moment. The UK has gotten it, China has got it, and Germany - probably more too.
We should see it soon!
PS. There's a thread on it just a couple threads down haha, no worries

Google+ App not supported on Nexus S?

Has anyone else tried to download the Google+ app on Nexus S? I did and on the android market it said that it is not compatible with my Nexus S. How can that be?
Ive had it since day one. No issue here. Try the apk posted here on the forum

Same here.
I see it was only available to users within the US (and Canada I guess). Maybe it's to do with the whole gradual roll-out of Google+. Anyway, I got it and thanks
Its pretty slow but it works!

The app is working fine for me. I haven't quite figured out which functionality it might be lacking, and it is evolving as Google+ changes. So far so good!
I downloaded it in Germany and it works, no probs.

To the posters that don't see that it's a big deal, watch the help videos and see how it works. I find something new every few hours.
If you get a notification or post from someone in a different language, right click and select translate and bingo... you have it in your language. Thank you Google

Yeah, and the UI is the best looking UI I've seen in an app. Everything runs really smoothly. Uploading pictures from the phone is effortless. Everything loads really quickly too; better than any Facebook app I've used.

Thanks for the video. Friday's almost here!
I didn't realize they put the power button on the top left. That's a weird spot to put it...I do like that they put the proximity sensors on the left side of the front. That is a major design flaw on my s3 at the moment (every time I'm on a phone call and I try to swipe down notifications, screen will turn off since it registers my thumb.)

This was the same problem with the EVO 4G LTE. I'd always end up tripping the proximity sensor when I swiped down the notification bar during calls and what not. I like the new position, and it adds a little more industrial aspect to the overall look of the handset.

Because of the curved back, I'm guessing it's a bajillion times more comfortable to hold in your hand, no ?

explicit, how is that battery holding up?
Also, it might be a network issue, but my LTE would have trouble with incoming texts that are more than 160 chars. So I would receive the 2nd text first, then the initial text would come in second. (When one long text gets broken down into 2). I was wondering if the One did this too.

RDF Discussion Thread for Sprint Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720)

This was done over on the Samsung Galaxy S3 threads by rwilco12 . I saw that we didn't have anything like it over here on the Galaxy S4 threads so I took a guess and found the RDF for the S4.
For more info check his thread over on the S3 forums http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2117229
Thanks rwilco12!!
Here is the S4 RDF latest entry...
http://device.sprintpcs.com/Samsung/SPH-L720/latest
you have to use Internet Explorer to view an RDF. For whatever reason it will only display correctly in Internet Explorer.
It shows that L720VPUAMC5 is the current version of the S4 ROM being tested.
Enjoy!!

The rdf's are notorious for having incorrect info in them but if it is truly mc5 than it is old. Mc5 would be March 5th. And we have mf9 which is June 9th. But again you almost never know what to expect from the rdf.

Honestly we do care and are very greatful for it, its just we needed that little bit more info on the source, as you may have seen its very easy for people to just claim they know things and post them publically and with tensions running so high as we are very happy about the device I feel many of us jumped to conclusions.

You should get used to play with this new UI but I would not say it's awful.
BTW Tapatalk has now access to your position and accounts (I saw these requests through Xprivacy).
Subscribed didn't show any forums
You couldn't tell what was read and unread
You couldn't mark forums as read.
When you finally got to the forum you subscribe to and went to a topic, going back takes you right out of the forum.
In my opinion definitely awful is the best description
