    New issue cropping up losing keyboard

    Going on two months with my Note 8 and love everything about it for the most part. I have an issue that I've now had pop up twice where I got type a text and my preferred keyboard - Swype - has been 'lost' and I have to go in and reselect it. Anyone else have this issue with this or any other...

    Note 8, Fitbit Charge 2 not communicating

    I recently upgraded to the awesome and incredible Samsung Galaxy Note 8. My old phone was the Note 3. On the old phone my Fitbit Charge 2 synced automatically and I got text notifications on my Fitbit as well. I have installed the Fitbit app on the new phone and set everything up and synced...

    Is anyone else mildly annoyed at the 'gap' at the top of the Note 8 screen?

    This might seem trivial but since day one I've notice what to me seems like a glaring issue: That gap at the top of the screen! You can only put widgets up so far and it seems like there is a half inch of unused space at the top before the notification bar that just looks wrong. OCD much, you...

    Simple, clean weather/clock widgets but with hot spots

    I really like stock clock/weather widget. Nice and simple and clean. But I also like being able to select my own weather app that launches and it's nice to have a few other programmable hot spots to launch much used favorite apps. That way I can leave my front page uncluttered. Sure, the new...

    Incoming text messages on AOD screen?

    I like that the incoming text messages show up on the AOD screen for a second but I'd like it better if I could see the whole message and if it could stay there a bit longer. It only shows a few words from the first line of the text and even then it disappears in about 1 second. Does anyone know...

    What apps are you pairing?

    Try as I might, I just can't think of any two apps that I would need or want to have open at the same time. Even way back on my Note 3 where we could open two apps (where supported) it was one of those features that while cool, I found I just never used. Funny, back then I though this would be...

    Missing features from Verizon version of Note 8

    After watching many, MANY awesome videos and getting all kinds of cool tips and tricks, I'm noticing some neat things don't seem to be available on my phone. I'm assuming this is because it's a Verizon version and as we all know each carrier does things a little differently. So I thought this...

    Hi, new guy, sort of, old question

    I was very active on this forum years ago when I got my Note 3. Been off for a few years now but I'm back. Still rocking the Note 3 too. It has been that good. Still a solid phone although getting harder and harder to charge due to just the wear of that area. Glad new phones are going wireless...
