  1. I have a question: I bought my phone unlocked on Amazon (SGH-I337) If I upgrade using through Odin (since OTA says I have the latest version and Kies says "Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies") will I lose the unlocked status of my phone? Thank you.

  10. If you haven't already downloaded 4.4.2 on your AT&T Galaxy S 4, don't. I installed it and I now have more bloatware than what was on my phone when I originally purchased it. New apps include Beats Radio, ATT Messenger (another sms app. Really AT&T, as if we didn't already have enough of those?) and ISIS Wallet (similar to Google Wallet). Total bloatware count is now 21 useless AT&T apps I don't use and cannot delete. Thanks AT&T, you're the best......NOT!
