Samsung’s Galaxy S 4 smartphone has arrived on shelves in the United States roughly a week ago, but the first issues affecting users’ experience with it have already started to emerge.

One of them is reportedly related to the Wi-Fi tethering and hotspot capabilities of the device, at least this is what a recent post on SlashGear reads.

The problems are said to be affecting only users trying to take advantage of AT&T’s direct menu support, although third-party services offering tethering still work on the device.

Furthermore, the news site claims that Samsung has already been informed on the aforementioned issues, and that the company is currently working on finding a solution for the problem.

For the time being, however, no info has emerged on whether the bug affects the Galaxy S 4 at other wireless carriers.
