Does anyone know how to restrict music album images from appearing in the Gallery? Other photo album apps (eg QuickPic) allow you to restrict certain folders (eg the Music folder) from being scanned for images but I can't find this option on the built-in Gallery. The result is a new photo album...

I am disappointed with the "improvements" that Lollipop delivered. Battery life seems worse and the camera changes are a backward step too. The camera shutter release, Mode etc now clutters the screen again instead of being on the edge and the photo Review is no longer full screen and...

Yes I realise you can do that but it is the Notifications that are the problem. You cannot change the text or background colour and yellow text on orange background is hard to read. The message goes too quickly also! (I am a slow reader obviously!)

I am using the original Gear watch with the Note Edge (until the Gear S is available!) and have experienced a dramatic boost to battery life on the Gear. With the Note 3, by bedtime, the watch was usually on 5% or flat. Since I connected it with the Edge about 10 days ago, it is consistently...

Does anyone know a way to change the background or text colours of the Edge panels? The Notification is pale orange with white text and is hard to read (especially at my age!). Black text would be better but can it be changed and if so how? Allan

The problem is I am in Australia, it is now summer and at 40 degrees Celsius (well over 100F), the ice machine cannot keep up and the bartender is in the pool! I am left with an automatic Cocktailbar Service that is out of control! How do I reign it in? (Where did they get such as stupid...

I noticed the "Coctailbar service" on my Edge used 43% of the battery life while the screen used just 15%. I thought it was some sort of virus program that ran for nearly 4 hours of the 7 hours since the last charge. A search of the XDA Developers Forum indicated it actually has something to...

Thank you! That solved the problem - tapping the price did give payment options. It did not give me the option to fix the old credit car number but I was able to select the 'wallet' one. I must admit that it does not seem at all intuitive to tap the price (as if you could change it for...

I have a similar issue but the above does not solve it. When I try on my phone to purchase something on Play Store, it is showing my old credit card number and rejects it (the card was replaced as it was lost). When I go to Google Wallet it shows the correct credit card (and the fact that I...
