    Looking for this IOS Calendar functionality.

    One of the only features from IOS that I truly miss is the calendar app showing calendar invites as new notifications. For those not familiar, when a calendar invite comes in, the calendar icon shows an alert; just like the email app. As calendar invites, if not immediately responded too, can...

    So you can’t disable Bixby?

    Or you can, just through a package disabler?

    Trick for Notification shade

    Every review I read complains about the height of the screens and how its difficult to reach the notification shade. One great trick is to use Nova Launcher and assign a swipe down gesture to bring down the notification shade. I used it on my GS7E and it works amazingly well.

    Anyone buy unlocked in the USA?

    If so, can you list the retailer you purchased from, the model number and if it was region locked upon receipt? Any other issues, specifically using on ATT. Tks.

    First Impressions

    Got my ATT 64gb black today. Have to say the phone is really nice piece of hardware. The size is expectedly big but the curved back does make it feel a bit smaller than the Note 4. The phone is fast. Really fast. Sceen is just what you expect. Phenomenal. Too early to tell on battery life. That...

    Might be crazy, but can you guys press into the side of the phone right underneath the volume button? I can press in far enough that I can hear an audible click sound. Posted via the Android Central App

    Tmobile Early shipments

    Is Tmobile shipping all preorders early or what it just a lucky few that slipped through? I haven't been able to figure that out. And if they are shipping all pre-orders early, how are they getting away with that and why aren't the other carriers doing the same?

    Just held a Note 4 at Best Buy.

    I am not a big note fan as I think its too big but man, is it nice. The metal frame gives it a serious premium feel and the screen is drop dead gorgeous. Still way to big for my taste, but Sammy has really stepped up the hardware.
