I like having a spare battery. The fact that Note 5 has a fixed battery is a deal breaker for me. I have a Note 4, and when its time has come and gone, Ill be looking at another manufacturer.

OK guys, I finally solved the problem. When I removed the link on my Note 4 Bluetooth to the truck radio, the notification ringtone kept going off every time I started my truck. So I figured out how to turn off Bluetooth on the radio, and it STILL kept going off! Really confused. I'm thinking...

I do have an audio system in my truck, and I 'll check and see if the Bluetooth on that system is on, and if so, turn it off. I will get back here with the results this coming week. Thank you all for trying to help me.

So I turned off Bluetooth on my Note 4, went out to my truck, turned on the ignition...........no ringtone. I guess that proves that somehow, the BT is causing the Notification Ringtone to sound every time I start my truck. Since I have a Samsung Gear S Smartwatch, and have to have my BT on all...

BT is always on, because I have a Samsung Gear S. The phone is not plugged into the cig lighter in the truck.

I have a Samsung Gear S, so my Note 4 has BT on all the time. Could that be somehow the reason that this is happening? I'm going to turn off the BT, get in the truck, and turn it on. If the ringtone doesn't go off, Ill know. But if the BT connection is the problem, the question is, how do I stop...

I did the Wipe Cache Partition, Text ringtone still sounds when I start the truck. I don't have either ITTT or Tasker. This is the most bizarre thing I have ever experienced on a cell phone.

I did the Internal Cache clean, that might do it. If it doesnt, how do I do a cache wipe from recovery?

On my Gear S, when I scroll down from the Watch Face, to where the programs are listed, the Email Icon shows 3 emails. When I click on it, it actually shows 22 emails. I click on the trash icon to delete them, but after I delete them, they're still there, every one of them. Any suggestions?

This is going to sound really absurd, but its true. Every time I start the engine of my truck, my Note 4 Notification Ringtone goes off. There's no text message, no notification of any kind, but it goes off. I have no idea whats going on. Could it be some RF from the engine that somehow...

Big problem with Gear Manager - Need help Yesterday, I upgraded the software for Gear Manager on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Since I did that, Im having major problems. First, I cannot download any apps for my Gear S, using Gear Manager. Second, apps I have on my Gear S, suddenly lost their...

Thanks for the info. Looks like a good product, but the problem I might have is that I have my Note 4 in a Unicorn Beetle Case, which some people say interferes with wireless charging. Ive used other cases, but their clips would break, the Beetle is fantastic. I guess I could try this wireless...

I want to buy a Charging Cradle for my Samsung Note 4, however they all require QI Integration. There are numerous products out there, so what are your suggestions? And, while I'm on the subject of Charging Cradles, which one is best?

I went to My Files app, Local Storage, and Device Storage. No Music files. Then, still in My Files app, Local Storage and SD Card....there they were. So the files DID transfer to the MicroSD Card using Android File Transfer, I'm glad for that. I'm still wondering why the Note 4 Settings SD...

I just upgraded my Note 4 MicroSD Card from 32gig to a 64gig card. I connected my phone to my computer, and, using Android File Manager, moved 2gig of Music files from my iMac iTunes to the Card on my Note 4. With my Note 4 attached to my iMac, the screen shows the music files on the phone...
