S4 feeling sluggish - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

When I'm using the S4 just ordinary tasks sometimes it feels very laggy. For example the messaging app often seems slow. Any suggestions or am I just being picky.

[Q] Samsung Update Push

What the heck was that? I just saw a notification that announced "Samsung Update Push" and I clicked it and it went away. Where did it go? What did it do?

Haha yea what's the deal with the comments on that app? I read through a bunch of them a few days ago, and while hysterical, I don't get why or how that started?

I have had no trouble out of any over the airwaves update pushing my phone around since I have 59 user and system apps frozen in my AT&T S4 using Titanium Backup.

I had a little lag out of the box, but this has gotten rid of it almost entirely.

HTC one gallery

Looking at my friends HTC one gallery that thing is bad ass in my opinion and way better than the one we have. Anyone know of any app or even if it can be ported to our device?

[Q] Moto X ROM for S4?

Given some of the cool moto x features with its wrist-motion activated camera, always listening, and its notifications, does anyone think it will be possible to port those features to the galaxy s4 in either ROM or zip (for all roms) form? I know the notification option just was released for 4.3 phones, but I'm just curious...
If we got our S4s to work like a moto x but be as fast as an s4 is, that would be amazing. Is this possible, or just wishful thinking? I've been pretty attached to the touchwiz interface, but I would definitely leave it for the moto x features on the S4.
I'm not sure, but I would have to say, with the s4's battery already not lasting too long.. Would you really want all of the features?

I'd have to disagree with that. By the end of the day I typically have over 50% of my battery left. Besides, the moto x has a 2200 battery (given it has a smaller screen and lower quality display). I think for those people who would sacrifice battery life, it would be awesome.
I see your point.. my battery lasts ehh, its nothing like my note 2, but what do you expect.. anyways. I find some of the features useless. Just like some on the s4, but others like the camera and the notifications, those are cool.. If you are willing to sacrifice some battery, they would be worth it!

Yep sorry, thought about posting in questions but thought it might apply more to general.

Color Emoji

Has anyone noticed color emoji on our note 3's. I can see them in Facebook as well as in some other apps. Is this 4.3? Thanks

I was thinking the same thing. Thanks
Just long press the mic button whenever your keyboard is open and then click on the emoji symbol... there's pages and pages of these damn things!! But... I tried a bunch of them texting to my wife's S4 and she can't see most of them... so i guess we got a bunch of cool emo's that we can't hardly use till everybody else catches up
