i can change the hotspot name, but now when someone connect to me, the person is using s4 also, but even after he changed his s4 device name, but under the hotspot 'connected device", the device name is some "android-(random values)".

You want your phone to have different name (instead of AndroidAPxxxx) or your friend phone have different name in your hotspot setting..?

For your phone having different name
Setting > more setting > tethering and potable hotspot > potable wifi hotspot (enable then click/touch it) > configure > network SSID (change the name here) and change the password as well.

I'm trying to save the Kingston at the moment..or else it'll be pointless to have 2 memory cards (SanDisk and Kingston) sitting at home not doing anything just because the SGS4 decides not work along these 2 brands

I'm really starting to be suspicious with the phone (and maybe manufacturer) on regards of the memory card issues..

S4 have problem with SanDisk and Samsung sdcards..? rclxub.gif
My S4 have no problem using 64GB SanDisk Class 10 sdcard.

Hey, before I turn on the recovery mode,do I need to back up my data?
*
If you just want to go into recovery mode..no need backup.
If you wanna do someting in recovery mode (exp: flashing) then better do backup first.

You can change the launcher if you don't like Touchwiz launcher. But then you can't use many of the TW based widgets.

Hi all.. what's the typical operating temperature for your batt?
Mine would go up to 38 deg C some times which i cant bear to put it in my pocket as it gives warm to my leg
*
That's normal temperature.
S3 can stand up to 58°C continuously without problem. As long as your hand can stand the heat...lolz tongue.gif
S4 should be okay with that same temperature.

did factory reset and still having the problem.
once i make a call, the screen automatically turns black and i need to press the home button in order to turn the screen on.
tried to put the device near my face but it won't make a call too.
*
Try do *#0*# from your dialer and check your sensor (proximity sensor). See whether it features functioning.
(Hover your hand over the sensor and the screen will change colour)

If not functioning... Send the phone to service centre.

the screen remains green color. no changes.

Meaning your proximity sensor is working.
Try disable and enable your auto screen off during calls as UserU said.

Of coz it won't make direct call. You still need to send the calling.
Unless you enable your Direct call motion sensor.
Setting > motion >enable Direct call

* when I pressed in the direct call, there is a tutorial to teach us how to use it one right? even there also not working

There's a setting for direct call tutorial. Look at the advanced setting and tutorial. (At the bottom part of the motion section). Then use learn about motions.

guys..need help..my s4 was drop into water, n the screen is not responsive...any1 experienced this?

When did you drop your phone..?
Take out the battery immediately and let the phone totally dry first for a few days. Some ppl chuck the damp phone into rice but I don't know whether that way effective or not.

After few days then only you put back the battery and power it on and see whether the phone still okay or not.

Btw..water damage not covered by warranty. sad.gif
