    2 Google accounts I need to sync with my phone, but only the contacts for one of them

    Yeah, unfortunately, I need to sync everything in both accounts, except the contacts. If it was just Gmail, it would be much easier but I will try the suggestions here. Thanks!

    Suddenly not receiving texts from one contact only!

    Thanks for the response. I have started receiving them again, after the person turned off their VPN. I'm not sure why that would be a problem, but if it happens again, I will also try your fix. Thanks again!

    Suddenly not receiving texts from one contact only!

    I switched phones and carriers on Saturday (I am now on boost mobile, Galaxy S6, 7.0). I received texts, calls, messages, etc. just fine all of Saturday and into Sunday morning. Suddenly I stopped receiving texts from one contact. Between receiving and not receiving, I didn't do anything or...

    Galaxy S3 Battery life

    I can only tell you what I have done that has helped. I turned off "automatic" for screen brightness and have it set the lowest light I can comfortably deal with. My area only has 3G, so I have it set to not look for 4G. My previous phone used a lot of battery looking for wifi (which I never use...

    Sprint Galaxy S3 LED Notification Won't Turn Off

    When I receive a text then look at it, sometimes the notification LED continues to flash, even after opening it two or three times. Nothing else has arrived, it is the SMS app that came with the phone, and there is no setting for the LED that provides for this. I can't figure it out...has anyone...

    Sprint Galaxy S3 SMS Lock/Delete Issue

    On my previous phones (HTC Hero, Motorola Photon Q) when I locked an individual text message before deleting that thread, the locked texts remained (because they were locked!).
