Is anybody having trouble texting on the S4? I keep pressing the numbers at the top! Is there a way to remove this from the keyboard? or even a custom keyboard to make the letters slightly bigger?

It'll be something like UCCW, with a custom layout and then the road wallpaper; and then probably a custom launcher like Nova/ADW etc.

This thread is worth looking at (view later pages) for customisation ideas - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18137383

Edit - Helps if i read the OP

the two above are done with nova launcher, can get the free version from app store (i only upgraded so could have message counts etc)

also worthwhile getting uccw aswell

just lay out my home screen with what ever grid size suited via nova launcher

8 -bit one i found 8 bit icon pack in app store for free , the clock is called peek also from app store and i just found an 8 bit wallpaper via google

the other one is same using nova launcher , clock etc is from one more clock free in app store wallpaper i downloaded from some where on net , and the icons are called "tiny white icons" from app store

love my S4 way better than the iphone, glad I changed, just currently sitting back and laughing at everyone going mental over the iphone 5 when its just re-hashed crap in my eyes, hated my 4s towards the end

oh and taking a lot of satisfaction seeing a good majority of people having a mare downloading iOS7 haha

Nova is getting hammered now.

Need to replace my standard messaging app for something nicer looking now.

Suggestions?

SMS Pro, Handcent and Chomp are your usual replacements but they're pretty bloaty considering the extra 'features' you get.

Tbf, if you're wanting to customise the phone to that extent i'd personally start looking at getting another ROM (Miui v5 is worth looking at, especially as it has built in downloadable themes) on there - plenty of info over on the XDA forums and it's a piece of piss.

I'm not after any more features with the messaging other than being able to change the look of it tbh

Some of the SMS apps allow for theming (download themes etc), so it's worth looking at them but as said, i'd personally start looking at custom ROMs.

I'm a little unsure about custom roms to be honest. They seem a little buggy
