It won't work if the phone is the problem. Some of these phones have problems. You're lucky yours doesn't. People on this board tend to assume others are idiots who have not done anything, especially common sense things, to get their problems solved, even if their so-called solution has been...

Wouldn't it prevent you from seeing the edges of the screen?

You can set the phone to restart once a week (like while you're sleeping), which is good for it. (I think there's one phone carrier that took away that feature, if I remember correctly from another thread.) As others said, clearing the RAM and closing apps actually slows the phone down. There...

Those who are having the wireless charging problem, what carrier do you have and when did you buy your phone? I have Sprint and bought it online in April (it was backordered for a few days). Black S7 Edge. I am just wondering if we all got our phones from the same lot.

Wireless charging does work with many cases, but most people have tried it with and without cases and with the phone turned off - all sorts of scenarios. Saying the option needs to be turned on a thousand times per thread about this issue doesn't need to happen.

It should default to being on the first time you use it. It is quite obvious when it is on because it tells you it is fast charging wirelessly when you place it on the wireless charger.

Sorry to hear you have the same problem! I originally thought it was a problem with the wireless charging stand, so exchanged it for a new one (Amazon), but had the same results. It works with a family member's Note 5 just fine, so that's what really confirmed it was my phone that was the...

Are you thinking about Private Mode to hide certain pictures and files in Gallery, My Files, and S Note? That's in the Privacy and Safety area of Settings. Otherwise, are you thinking about Samsung Knox?

Didn't your wireless charger come with the Samsung Adaptive Fast Charging plug and USB cable (same ones that the phone came with)? Mine did. You can buy an extra on Amazon (as well as Samsung Adaptive Fast Charging car chargers), if need be. Even though Samsung says they haven't heard about...

Yikes! It sure would have been bad if you'd had that turned on! I don't have it on, either.

Exactly what I was going to say. Your phone likely kept trying to unlock in your pocket. Do you have anything set up that takes a photo of whoever tries to unsuccessfully unlock your phone after a certain number of tries? My anti-virus does that, along with a map of the location. Check to...

Yes, I know all about it.

Samsung will Factory Reset it for you (back up everything before you send it in). That's why I am not going to get my phone's wireless charging problem (too slow) repaired, because I do not want to spend days setting my phone up again. Obviously, it would be different if the screen were broken...

LOL, I didn't just go by time, but calculated per minute and all. But, the main point is, it didn't take four hours, but the usual amount of time for that phone (I think it was just over two hours? I don't recall). My phone takes over four hours, which is not what it is supposed to take.

Have you tried one of the apps made to seek out which apps are causing ads?
