    Oreo messed up notifications

    That's exactly what my settings look like. The only thing that happens when I receive a text is the phone screen will wake when it's off. Other than that, nothing else occurs.

    Oreo messed up notifications

    Exactly! All notifications are active in their entirety, no restrictions at all. I also noticed I don't receive any notification for Facebook or Whatsapp. I have to open those apps respectively to see the activity.

    Oreo messed up notifications

    I got that update and thought it may fix it... Nope... I've had my phone by my side all morning and I received about 7 separate text messages with zero notifications. I have to open the app to see if any came through

    Oreo messed up notifications

    Precisely! I will be sitting with my phone in my hand reading an email, and receive a text and not even know it. No vibration, no LED... Nothing. I won't know I had one unless I close the email and happen to scroll by the home screen with messenger on it. I'd love to roll back to the previous...

    Oreo messed up notifications

    With my unlocked note 8 I decided to update last night to Oreo and while it has some moderately neat updates, it's ruined things as simple as messenger. Now, my note 8 won't even vibrate or show the LED indicator when I receive a text message. None of the notification options have been changed...

    Massive Galaxy apps updates

    Seriously? It's that a default gesture?

    gmail issue

    Do you know if your email is setup as POP3 or IMAP? I had that issue a long while back and it was because it was set up as POP3. Once I switched it to IMAP, I had much more control and never ran into those issues again.

    What SD card do you use?

    Same! Hadn't even opened it until I got the N8.

    Thinnest Note 8 Case - with Drop Protection

    I'm currently using the Spigen thin fit on my Note 7 with the Whitestone Dome screen protector. I used the equivalent Spigen on my s7 edge for the last year and even after a few nice drops, everything was mint, including the case. I like the very slim profile of the case and it adds a lot of...

    Thinnest Note 8 Case - with Drop Protection

    Incipio makes some good ones that aren't flashy and have pretty decent drop protection. The one for the Note that I saw recently was the Incipio DualPro. Also Ringke has a few good ones. Search them on YouTube, so you can see one on the Note 8 in motion. Sometimes the still photos or renders...

    How does everyone like their Note?

    Right, true... I have this set up as well, but the ease of scanning your finger without anything else is gone.

    My WhiteStone Dome is here!!!

    I got mine and installed it last night and the part that drove / still driving me nuts is the adhesive around the edges. I wiped the phone in between UV light curing and it still oozed from the edges, this morning I wiped the phone and the adhesive kind of crusted and rolled like that adhesive...

    How does everyone like their Note?

    I had the Note 7 (my first Note) and had it for only 2 weeks and loved it. This is a step forward and a step back at the same time. The one really annoying thing about it that I hope the find a way around in the future is how difficult it is to unlock when it's on my wireless charger (whether...

    Note 8 is AMAZING

    Got my Whitestone Dome and installed it last night. The installation was pretty simple and lining up the protector to the phone was much easier with the included brackets. My only gripe so far is the adhesive. It gets along the edges of the phone and protector since it spreads during the...

    Note 8 is AMAZING

    Yeah, you can. I ordered the Whitestone Dome and it should be here by Sunday. It's pricey but from what I've read and seen, it's great and case friendly.
