    Change the timer sound effect?

    Whose idea at LG is to make a waterfall sound effect for the watch's timer? And how do we change it? I don't see an option anywhere.

    Still no love for the W280A variant?

    Tech21 cases

    I went exact same scenario. I loved the Tech21 case because of its non-slippery surface. But, many S8/S8+ case manufacturers end up creating a canoe-shaped design in order to accommodate the S8's curved glass, and Tech21 is no exception. In my opinion, it still remained too exposed. However...

    Hacks and tricks for your new Gear VR

    Just got my Gear VR over the weekend, and I absolutely love it. I've tried generic VR headsets on before with my iPhone and a few Android smartphones, including the Google Daydream, but the Gear VR appears to be much more refined and thought out. That being said, here are a couple of things I...

    Entertainment kit

    Well, for those on T-Mobile and already with an S8 and a claimed Immersive Bundle, now's your chance to perform a JUMP! On Demand to an S8+ and get this in the process, too. Probably a **** move, but a loophole nevertheless.

    Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

    I'm going to jump on the "FedEx sucks" bandwagon. According to their support rep, I have to contact "the shipper" so they can make the arrangement to redirect it to a FedEx store. But my nearest 24-hour FedEx seemed to have stopped being a 24-hour place some time ago. And, because they decided...

    Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

    Anyone get their emails in the middle of the night or do you think they do fulfillment during standard business hours? Sorry for the questions, it's just frustrating. Check this guy's story out on Reddit - his coworker orders his S8 after he does and that guy gets his VR bundle, while he is...

    Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

    For those who got a shipping notification, does your eCommerce Order Status change from CONFIRMED to any other status, or does it add anything to the order status page? And for the Check Gift Status, does it show anything more than this status: Congratulations! Your submission has been...

    Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

    Well, I just got totally lied to yesterday by 'Curban,' the last Samsung e-Commerce Support rep. After speaking with Josh today, he once again escalated the escalation, but was nice enough to even give me his direct email (albeit a generic looking Samsung email address) and promised he'd follow...

    Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

    I'm still wondering if I'm going to get two Gear VR headsets and controllers like several others have reported. For the Immersive Bundle, my 'Check Gift Status' page just got updated to show 'Gift Sent.' For my Fully Immersive Bundle, I'm still on 'Confirmed.'

    Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

    Well, I called exactly at 9AM this morning and was on hold for a grand total of 30 seconds before someone picked up. Surprising. The rep told me that they are looking feverishly to get all of these orders out this week and that, specifically, I should be getting my bundle no later than...
