They released the same time (i think within a week) of everyone else for the S3


IMO there was WAY more hype/commercials/propaganda for the S3... I have barley seen anything for the S4 that I havnt gone out and looked for.

I have seen a commercial for the s4 at least once a day for the last week, and the best buy in san carlos has a huge samsung section now that is clearly designed to compete directly with apple. It has the same feel giant tv on a shiny wall showcasing the s4, all sorts of samsung tablets/phones/laptops. It was basically a mini apple store that was barfed on by samsung.

Best thing I've done after root was to find all the apps that are inverted ( i.e. black background ) and have holo colored text. Facebook looks so much better now.

Did you have to find each app, or was there a single app that inverted them all? Its better for battery life too

Found a link on XDA that had Facebook/messenger, instagram, twitter, kik, whatsapp, spotify, and pinterest. Facebook/messenger and instagram are the only ones with holo blue, rest are white. Save for twitter, I run a clear app.
