    Can not see phone content on PC when connected

    Thanks for the reply but, I do not have anything close to the "USB for charging" option in the notification bar. I do find a similar option under the File Manager - File Transfer - Transfer to PC. When I click on it, it gives me a "START" prompt and when I click it, it gives me an ftp:\\...

    Can not see phone content on PC when connected

    Wanted to download to my PC some pictures that I took today on my Note4. The Note 4 appears on the list under "This PC" in Windows Explorer but, when I click on it, all I get is a note, saying: "This folder is empty" Tried to reboot both the phone and multiple computers and having the same...

    Any Gear 1 owners switch Gear S?

    Have both the Gear 1 and the S. The S is a very large upgrade, definitely worth purchasing. As used with its own SIM card, it expands the functions of the watch were you can leave your phone at home and still have a fully functioning device. It is not too large, unless you are a tiny person with...

    Note 4 and Gear S Notification issues

    After finding "2 apparent solutions" for my issues where I could not reply to Gmail on the Gear S I finally purchased the "Gear S Notification Extender". Now, I am able to reply to the Gmail messages from the watch. Just hope it keeps it up, as the other 2 fixes provided only some short-time help.

    Note 4 and Gear S Notification issues

    Answering my own questions; I called Samsung regarding the notification issues and after 4 transfers and nearly 2 hours the Cust Service person had me go into my Note4 Settings - Applications - Application Manager. There, I selected the Samsung Gear - Force Stop and Clear Data. Following that...

    Note 4 and Gear S Notification issues

    I have my Note 4 paired over BT with the Gear S. Notifications seem to work consistently with Messaging but, not with E-mail. I have my Gmail account selected for Email. Sometimes, I get zero notification of an incoming email. Sometimes, I have a Gmail notification under Messages, that I can...

    T-mobile watch on verizon?

    Seems like receastwood answered MY question from my separate thread. Appears that I will be able to use the forwarding function between my Verizon Note 4 and my T-mobile Gear S.

    T-mobile Gear S working with Verizon Note 4.

    Apologize if this has been discussed before. I just ordered a T-Mobile Gear S and plan on pairing it with my Verizon Note 4. (Several reasons why I went with a different network for the watch) Wondering if the two devices being on different networks will disable some of the functions of the...

    Robin's Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Thread

    Re: Lollipop? hope its soon! I have 5.0 on my Nexus 7 tablet and am impressed with the snappiness and the lack of any bugs, thus far. There is no question that the 7 is both faster and smoother.

    Note 4: Which Launcher Do you use? Why?

    Pinning the S-Notes to the home screen is enough reason for me to stay with TW. For me, it is one of the most useful new features of the Note 4 - stylus combo.

    Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Has anybody though about making "The switch"?

    Re: Has anybody though about making "The switch"? I would never consider switching to Apple. Their disdain for their own customers, the way they maximise their profits on the backs of those customers by purposely not providing more cost effective alternatives (SD card, replaceable battery...

    Note 4, the good and the bad, my thoughts so far

    I find the sound quality of the Note 4 excellent. I use the speakers for voice navigation and for speaker-phone applications and the sound is clear, loud and without distortion. By far the best for the phones I have owned, thus far. As far as the amplifier, I can not be called a true music buff...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Cannot take clear pictures

    Re: Cannot take clear pictures HDR should be OFF for pictures with motion. In that mode it takes several shots and combines them for the best light exposures. HDR will introduce blur if motion is present.

    Sounds comes from the speaker while the earphones are connected..

    So, you are NOT talking about Bluetooth connection but, direct wired headphone connections. I just tried that and had my wife call my number while I was listening to music with my wired headphones. It rang through the phone's speakers but her voice was only audible in the headphone and NOT...
