    Icons creating new screens?

    OK, this [redacted by Mod] is BIZARRE. For giggles, I turned ON the "add to home screen option... and it didn't add an app to my home screen. Then I turned it off... and it STILL didn;t add a new home screen. After LITERALLY doing it 3 installs ago (it's why I went looking for a solution here)...

    Icons creating new screens?

    FWIW, all, I too have this issue. N8 adds icon to new screen. Here's the kicker: I HAVE THE GOOGLE SETTING TURNED OFF> Always have (I HATE that option). So it's DEFINITELY something in the Samsung settings, I just haven't found it yet. For giggles, I'll turn on/off the setting in Google just to...

    Anyone else still planning on keeping their Note 4 awhile longer?

    Hey, as to fast charging, if you still have a phone, I have a workaround for (possible) that: 1) obviously make sure it's a QC charger 2) Make sure the quick charge setting is on and finally 3) Power off the phone. Plug in the charger. Activate the screen until the single charging green dot at...

    Nova Launcher causing Black bar background behind navigation bar????

    So, I just heard from TeslaCoil- Apparently the "workaround" is to uninstall and reinstall? There was a bit more to it than that, but not much.

    Yeah, I tried a reboot. Still the same issue. Good thought, though!

    I believe you can use the OK Google assistant to select a specific artist/song. "OK Google, play Justin Beiber." ;)

    Nova Launcher causing Black bar background behind navigation bar????

    I'll chime in- all of sudden today my dock background stopped being transparent. Any thoughts? I have tweaked every dock setting and turned transparency on/off. Ieven for giggles tried to change it to the exact same pic as the dock background. All I get is black. Anyone?

    Fast charge not working [S6 edge] Marshmallow: any way to fix?

    No worries! It's still annoying, but at least there's a workaround. I am however now concerned that I'm now effectively halving the life expectancy of the microUSB port.

    Samsung Note 4, good for one year?

    Hmmm... one year ago. This is (was) often a symptom of a failed update to MM. At the time, did you try a factory reset? In short, my Note 4 runs like a gem 6.0.1. Super phone and can be had for $200 right now on swappa (or so). Great phone. I'm keeping mine until I see how the Note EIGHT goes...

    Issue with the Galaxy S6 keyboard after the update to Marshmallow

    Settings --> Language and Input --> Default (under Keyboards). Change to the keyboard you like the best. Personally, I like the Swype/Dragon keyboard (downloaded through Google Play), but others like the Google keyboard and my wife even prefers the Samsung stock one. Also, there are more...

    Verizon Marshmallow

    As to when, see THIS LINK. As to good information, see THIS LINK. As to best practices, EVERY time I have an update to a new OS (I have Sprint MM, BTW), I will ALWAYS BACKUP and factory reset my phone. You'll thank me. Short version: The install files to go from A to B (or in this case, L to M...

    Why is Bluetooth Audio Dropping when Wifi Drops and Netflix Running?

    I apologize if this isn't helpful, but it sounds like an app issue (Netflix). Is the NF app up to date from the Google store?

    Lock screen stays on when fingerprint scanner used.

    I have a Note 4 on Sprint, and the FP reader doesn't have this issue. Try clearing the cache and seeing if that helps (Shut down, press and hold all three buttons: Volume up+Home Button+Power, Blue verbiage shows in top left corner on startup if you do it correctly. Select Clear Cache and reboot...

    Android System UI stopped working and screen flashing leaves Galaxy S6 Unusable

    YIKES! Good luck, man. You could try a force reboot instead of a "shut down" command (this might allow you to get in long enough to back up your pictures. I presume you've plugged it into your computer via USB to try and access the file manager?
