    How can I turn off the "high volume" warning on the S8?

    The warning isn't needed at all. It's never been needed on any device. It's never been a liability issue. No judge would ever grant someone a win for playing music too loud and then blaming the player manufacturer for not warning them. It would be like putting a warning label on every single...

    Erratic battery behavior

    Had the same problem with a nexus 5. Turned out the battery was swelling and dying. Might be the end if the road

    Samsung Internet browser vs Chrome

    They have extensions on their desktop. Samsung has it on their mobile. It's unavoidable. Regardless, I'm not concerned with their revenue. I'm concerned with my browsing experience. I chalk this up to, "not my problem" if they offered a paid version that have me a better experience I'd buy it...

    Samsung Internet browser vs Chrome

    Yup. I use it exclusively for the ad blocking. It's essentially the same, but with the nice extension feature. Why extensions have not been added to chrome after this king I don't k is. But I have up waiting.

    Guys side sync works on our tablet now!

    I like the app but I find its a huge battery drain on my phone; not so much on my tablet. Since I dont really use it that much I just removed it. To do the SMS I use tablet talk. As far as file transfers, dropbox takes care of the rest. Like I said, good concept, but I just cant aford the...

    Note 3 camera has a lag because of "processing"?

    My issue is that after the 4.4.2 update the burst, best photo, and best face camera options are virtually useless. There is anywhere from 3-6 seconds lag between hitting the camera button and the burst of photos. On 4.3, this worked flawlessly. Before anyone suggests the defacto "reset the...

    My wife (probably like most everyones) is amazing. We both work full time, and we have a 4 year old already. Just recently I decided to finish my degree and she has taken up the slack in my absence. However we just found out she is pregnant again, and when I suggested dropping out to help she...

    [Closed] Nexus 7-a-day giveaway - Dec. 21

    I purchased a galaxy note 2. I talked my wife into letting me pick and get my Christmas gift early. Best phone I have ever owned. It's a tad on the large size but I'm willing to make it work because of the benefits. The tablet would be for my wife since I can't really see the need for a tablet...
