    Gear VR Promotion Success/Failure Thread: please post whether you are successful ...

    I submitted mine the day after release and it now states that it is shipping in 4 weeks. I can't wait so I can finally ditch this phone and go back to my Note 4. That curved screen is driving me up a wall.

    Gear VR Promotion Success/Failure Thread: please post whether you are successful ...

    I knew about it and that is why I brought it, but who knew it would be so cumbersome and hinder everything that I do. It makes simple web browsing such a tedious tasks. I can't scroll up or down because my index finger is holding the side of the phone where the curved edges are and normal phones...

    Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge - Not really happy - a few issues.

    @OP - I am not really with my purchase either. I wish it had a 6 inch screen. I came from a Note 4 which i loved. Anyways, certain things i noticed really upset me. First, it didn't come with a default music, video player, and voice recorder app. I was beyond LIVID. I never use the Samsung...

    I am NOT returning the phone. I said I would make a scene at the retail store if I did not receive my free VR gift. So I am going to wait 4 to 6 weeks per the emails instructions and hopefully i'll get my free gift. I am disappointed in the phone because the curved screen does nothing for me...

    Stock email app "sync disabled"

    @OP - I had the very same issue. My Gmail would never respond unless I hit refresh 3 or 4 times even though sync is already enabled. I did a factory reset and redid my phone as if it was brand new and it seems to functioning better now. I seriously hate my S7 Edge. I am going back to my Note 4...

    I submitted mine the day I got it from the store. I got an automated email saying submission was successful and that I should get it in 4 - 6 weeks. As soon as I get it, I am ditching this S7 Edge and going back to my Note 4 until the Note 6 comes out. No more edge screens for me. I don't see...

    Gmail Doesn't Work On S7 Edge

    I have to hit refresh 3 to 4imes before I get new emails. I'll turn my Note 4 on wifi and the email will come quicker and I don't even have to hit refresh on the Note 4. Remind you that my Note 4 has no sim card since it is now in my S7 Edge. I have not once gotten a new Gmail email since i got...

    Where's the "Music" app?

    Go to your Samsung folder within apps and hit GALAXY APPS icon and you can download the MUSIC app there along with the VIDEO PLAYER APP and the VOICE RECORDER APP from Samsung for free. Why they removed their proprietary apps that people love is beyond me cause I hate Google's apps for gallery...

    Any one regret their choice of S7 edge over the standard S7

    I regret it. I miss my Note 4. I am definitely getting a Note 6 when it comes out this fall. I'll skip the 6 Edge Plus. Honestly, the curved screen does nothing for me and I noticed it interrupts web browsing cause my index finger is holding up the phone by the side of the screen and cause my...

    S7 edge Battery life

    I came from a Note 4 and I am in shock at how quick the S7 Edge battery goes. The funny thing is, the battery is bigger and the display is smaller than the Note 4 so this shouldn't be happening. I'll leave the phone on the table fully charged and not use it for 2 hours and 10% battery will be...

    Things that make me upset about the S7 Edge

    @OP Yeah, those are annoying issues. I've noticed my Gmail doesn't even sync. I have to his refresh 3 or 4 times before new emails come through. I checked and I have sync on in the features, but I have to hit refresh 3/4 times. On my old Note 4, the emails still come through on wifi faster...

    Got S7 Edge & Changes I Hate

    Thank to everyone who responded. I have made those changes thanks to everyone informing me of where those features are now located. I am a Samsung Android fan and I just don't understand why Android makes these ridiculous changes when it doesn't benefit anyone. I understand to stay relevant or...

    Got S7 Edge & Changes I Hate

    I appreciate everyones feedback, but i try not to download just any app from the app store to make my phone do things. I prefer legal apps and not random apps that a teenager develops in his basement and then he has access to god knows what on my phone. I tried everything that everyone suggested...
