Has anyone installed GPSTEST (GPSTest - Apps on Google Play), free, on the s21? Supposedly the s21 has GPS capability of L1 and L5 (much more precise GPS location). I do not want to do the trade in special (S7 to S21), if the S21 is not picking up both L1 and L5. With the trade in specials...

If I understand correctly, Earthmate requires a Gamin device. I was looking for a standalone app for the phone. Thanks.

The home screen changed since I last loged in. I was looking for a Login button on the top right. There was a Login Helper button, that when selected, malwarebytes would block becuse of PUP. Finally found how to log in.

I did call Verizon. It appears that I am not the only one experiencing this, and that Verizon is working on how to prevent this. It is not that the call to my cell phone took control of my cell phone, it is that the spammers have other equipment attached (on their end), that called my land...

When I go into Google Maps, I do not see this, nor any menu option to show this. I do have High Accuracy turned on, so where can I see this information? Is the Compass the only way of seeing this information (I do see it there).?

I found this online...https://gist.github.com/davidnunez/1404789. On my Windows 10 desktop, (after attached the S7 edge by cable), I opened an admin command window, and did this..."adb shell pm list packages -f > app.txt". I had previously installed adb. I can paste it here, but it is easily...

Did some online research, there appears to be many Apps that can cause my particular problem...http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-note-4/640251-new-speed-charge-battery-status-lock-screen-annoying-ads-just-appeared-gn4-7.html. I just picked up the phone from the charger, got the...

Every time I put the phone down, on the Samsung 'Fast Charge' charger, or pick up the phone, the adds show. Does anyone else have this happening?. There is a direct correlation here.

Under Application Manager, I see nothing that starts with cheetah or any of the names mentioned above. Am I looking at this correctly, what I am seeing is the App name, where do you check to see who the developer\manufacturer is? Is there a way to get detailed info on every app installed...

Bought S7 Galaxy Edge right before Christmas, from BestBuy, Verizon, no adds. Last week downloaded 'File Manager', free one. Adds started appearing, so I uninstalled it. Even more adds now, especially when I first pick up and unlock the phone. If I uninstalled the app, where are they coming...

Galaxy Edge. Wrote an Xamarin Forms App, that writes to storage, creates a .png file. Went into settings/storage/explore/myfolder. Click on the png file, it opens, I have the date and time, in text, on the image (2:20 PM). Run the app again, (it will create a new .png file, with the current...

Still have not figured out where the PCLStorage files go, but if you check the other link, using system.io, at least I have files that I can get to now.

Hi. I am not getting any answers on the Xamarin Forms, Cross Platform forum (https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/87498/i-am-using-pclstorage-where-are-the-files-going-to#latest), so I thought that I would try here. My own app, using Xamarin Forms, PCL ,PCLStorage, writing a file to Either...

I understand the part about using the VPN and making an internet connection and having everything I send and receive encrypted. Does it protect me against hackers, getting onto my device and modifying and getting my data (having nothing to do with any website connections)?

Got a new Edge, and new to Android. I understand about VPN's and having a secure tunnel to the website that I am connecting to. I am trying to find out how else someone might still screw with me. Can someone still put things on my android phone, take control, get information from my phone...
