I am not able to make it work using thumb with one handed use. It works fine with index finger on other hand. Some one suggested to record them in 24 different prints instead of 3 prints with 8 times each.
Got a tip for us?

Use it on the wifes phone with great results. She uses the two handed approach though (as do I).

If you are just looking for lock screen notifications, then try that since its free but has no widget support yet.
Here are some lock screen widgets replacements

I have the s view cover that has the wireless charger in it. Works great but is a little thicker than the regular s view case.
Ok, i am after just the wireless back cover. If the s-view had a hole for the notification light i would get one.
Sold my 5S yesterday, I can get a good deal on a S5. Decisions decisions with all the new smartphones available or coming soon. Damn!
Any one use split screen functionality? How useful it is. Apparently Apple is going to implement this in their products. It is one of the big thing people are expecting. Is it part of kitkat functionality. Not bad from google to implement something which Apple finding it difficult. Not sure if Apple provide upgrade to my ipad mini.
I am and it's pretty awesome. It makes the phone a bit thicker and heavier, but that's a plus for me since I can now get a better grip of it.
Guess it gives protection for the camera too as it is recessed, just got to find one.
The split screen is not a stock Android feature. It is something that Samsung includes in their devices.
It is not a feature I use on a regular basis, but it has been very useful the few times I have needed it on my S4. Like when in a training session with the training presentation on one half of the screen and taking notes on a note-taking app in the other half.
From what I've read is you can't really customize what shows up on the lockscreen. Kind of annoying.
You need an app for that. It is not native to the Samsung S5 like it is to the iPhone 5s.
I think, it allows only camera short cut and information about weather and pedometer.
Why not, you got to try itthere is always ebay
I am not going to miss the 5S, was not really using it that much to tell the truth which is totally different than my iPad which is in heavy rotation.
I will probably try it, there is always the return policy as I will know in that time if I want to continue with it. Besides, I have run out of places to try it as the welcome has worn off.
Nice photos, cute dog and agree with phone camera, it's a last resort for me. I use my Sony a6000 then wifi the photo to my S5 if i want it on it. Buying a phone for the camera is dumb who wants lasting memories taken on a phone.
