Is there a way to mod the dialer so that it's slide to call someone? I'm getting frustrated by the fact that the screen is so sensitive that when I tap a contact by accident, it auto-dials. Is there a way to prevent this? Thanks!
I would love this also

Forgot the name but someone talked about an app in the market that made you hit an extra confirmation whenever you hit dial.

Found! Thanks to donatom. It's titled "Call Confirm."
In the pool party commercial for the S4, they show a girl checking her text message on her lock screen by hovering her finger over the "New Message" box on the lock screen.
Here is a link. It happens around 1 minute:

Maybe it's not a lock screen but a widget of some sort? It looks like either a lock screen or home screen.
True. Can't tell but it's either home screen or Lockscreen. Both where previews don't work with air view?

I wasn't able to get it to work on the lock screen. The box shows up looking just like the commercial but hovering my hand doesn't do anything. I'm wondering if this is a feature not in the AT&T version... I tried doing it as a widget on the home screen but it also didn't work with air view.

That definitely looks like the lock screen with a small clock. But it sure as heck doesn't work like that for me.

You have to click to the left of the on off toggle for air view in the settings.. It will bring up a menu and make sure information preview is selected.. Also if the whole message can be seen in the message preview on the lock screen it won't air view... It has to be more than the preview can show

So have you gotten it to work? In my lock screen, the box says "New Message" but doesn't show ANY of the text. Do I need to make a new widget on my lock screen or something? Air view isn't working over the standard "New Message" box that shows up on the lock screen by default. If you could take a pic of where the air view is working for you on the lock screen, that would be great.
Yeah after figuring it out I've been using it a few days now... If its not showing any part of the message open the messaging app.. Then settings and make sure message preview is checked

I'm going to reiterate the steps since I think I wasn't clear enough in the first post I made here..
To enable airview and get the messaging preview from it like the pool party commercial is a two step process Samsung did not enable the information preview from the factory so you must do this yourself..
Step one: goto your phones settings then my device and scroll down to airview.. Make sure the button next to the word airview is green THEN tap the word airview and it will open a sub menu with 5 settings in it.. Make sure information preview is turned on and green
Step 2: open the messaging app and hit the menu button to access settings..scroll down to notification settings and make sure message preview is checked off with the green check mark (again Samsung did not enable this by default so you must check it yourself)
To test text yourself or have someone text you with a few sentences and hover your finger over the notification on the lock screen it will bring up the bubble like in the commercial.
If the entire message can be seen in the preview on the lock screen (ex: hey) then airview will not doing anything here.. Its only for messages larger than the preview can display..
If your notification on the lock screen only shows 1 new message you do not have message preview enabled under the messaging app..
Airview and information preview will allow you to hover over your calendar (app not widget), and in the email app (not gmail) as well.
Also yes I am on an AT&T S4

I can't seem to get air view to work with my text message threads. I open the stock text message app once it opens to all of the text conversation threads I hover over any of them and nothing. I have air view turned on and I also have preview enabled in the text settings. Help will be much appreciated.

I dont see a link hole when I hover over it. I'm guessing that based on what your saying if the text reply isnt long enough airveiw will not work? The threads i have in text are short replies 2-5 worded responses. Am I guessing correct?

Damn auto correct I meant the whole message lol sorry about that.. Yeah if its short enough that you can see the entire message in the thread list then airview won't do anything.. If you have a long message it will show up when you hover over it

Can I swipe a contact to call them? I can swipe a contact to the left to text them, but if I swipe it to the right (like I could on my GS3) it doesn't do anything. Am I missing something?

Yes you can, just make sure you start your swipe on the text part of the contact and not the picture.

Well, looks like you passed the test. I totally knew that already...

no no its not the google, speak and screen shot app its all the apps installed on the phone in one quick menu but you can edit which ones you want on the menu
App Panel
Darkfang, i am guessing you are referring to the app panel. The only way i know for it to show is if it is set to pop up when, ie: dock phone, plug in headphones, usb storage. I never use it and dont know another way to make it pop up. You can find the setting for what i mentioned under settings-->general-->accessory.
So the bottom centimeter of my screen stopped working (portrait), which means that the navbar doesn't work (duh) and the part I need to tap to send a message doesn't work (which really annoys me.) I need to flip the screen then type, then flip the screen back to send, or type something with "P" in it. For now I'm using pie but it's really inconvenient. Do you guys have any other suggestions to compensate for the broken screen? I'm trying to find an app where I can have a separate floating bubbles for home, back and recents, but none of the ones I try seem to work, or are good.
You can try mipop and see if that works
