Try messing around with notification panel settings. Try clearing cache.

The bug is still there, but there is workaround, at least until next restart of phone.
1. From home screen, Click settings -> more settings -> toggle NFC on.
2. Go back to home screen, scroll down the notification panel, the NFC icon should appear, but it is not working yet. Click the NFC icon to turn it off. The UI will hang and stop.
3. After the UI restarts itself, the NFC icon should work until you switch off the phone.
Enjoy for the time being until next firmware update.

[Help] gap on the top left corner

Hi there just got a problem here. If u look at the screenshot of my phone there is a gap and I don't have any clue how do I get rid of it. It annoys me. Now here how did I get that, installed notification toggle app moved that to system/app to get some extra features however I found power control is more convenient that notification toggle app so moved that back to user/app and uninstalled that and I got that gap . There used to be a little icon of notification toggle. I would be so greatful if someone can help me.
Factory reset?
Same exact thing happened to me. The only way I was able to fix it was restore from backup

[Q] Lockscreen issue (?)

hello, I dont know if anyone is experiencing the same problem as i do, but whenever i change the lockscreen wallpaper to something black or gray -- the left side of the screen gives out some specs of white. and its weird since its only shows in the lockscreen, the homescreen doesnt show any of the white specs. im worried. is this a bug?
Yes, that really happens if you enable the ripple effect. I'm not sure if there's a fix for that already though.

No.. update 1 post with picture
I don't think it's an option you can turn on. For me it shows when I remove the pen.

When i remove the pen, it's not showing anything. A check somewhere that i need?
Are you on the stock Rom?

Hello all.
This is a simple fix. What you are talking about is a page buddy function. Navigate to settings/display/page buddy turn this option on you will now get the spen recommendations and page buddy screen when pen is detached. This is of course on a stock rom. If you are on a custom rom this option may have been moved/ removed, etc.
Hit thanks if you found it!

Someone with that rom will need to chime in. I am running the latest ATT MA4 and it is working fine!

Weird feature (not in settings)

My brother has this weird feature (he has an S4 too) that my phone doesn't do.
So if you look at the photo below, he's holding down an app on his home screen but what's so different between my s4 and his is that when he tilts his phone left or right it switches to that direction. For an example, he can tilt it to the right to move an app to a home screen that is on the right (like the next page) .
This isn't normal because my friends and my S4 doesn't do this and we can't find the option in the settings

I think that feature its called air move. I think it only works in the TouchWiz launcher.

Standard feature for touchwiz since the galaxy s2 on t-mobile.
You just have to enable the option. Same is you zoom into a picture put a finger on the image and move the phone around you can pan through the image...
Read the manual in the box... something no one ever does.

By tilting? That's not the air move. I don't see the tilt option either. Turning on the pan photos setting doesn't do it.
Seems like it would be a combination of Smart Scroll (allows device tilting to move) and and Air Gesture...but I can't repeat it. Weird....
It's the tilting features, but for the life of me I can't find the setting for it.

That's not it, that's for scrolling thru the browser. I remember the tilting setting was under motions on my s3 along with the zoom on pictures and zoom on the browser. But I don't see it on my s4

This is exactly the issue I'm experiencing, it's no where to be found in the settings and it gets really annoying

Guys, It's not air gestures, air gestures you SWIPE your hand on the sensor, and it's NOT smart scroll. I swear I remember seeing the setting under motions on my s3 but it's not anywhere on my s4

So, do you have any S4 with that function?
I only found the tilt to zoom image setting on Setting --> My device --> Motions and gestures --> Motion --> Tilt --> Zoom.
I cannot find the tilt to switch page. May be it's replaced by air gesture.

Nope
Not mines, my brothers, or my friends, but my brother has the feature working. It's not even in the settings, I enabled everything and it didn't work for me
