    Vibration totally not working

    Has it just stopped? Like, for days? Have you checked the Priv forum? My S7 haptic feedback still stops working about once a week or two but always comes back. If it bothered me more I'd try learning about why but, eh. Good luck. Posted via the Android Central App

    Vibration totally not working

    I've been having the same 'no haptic feedback' problem (just as you described) on and off for a few weeks, although I've noticed it has been working for the past few days. It would be nice if maybe my latest t mobile update fixed it. If that's true maybe your next carrier update will fix yours...

    Samsung s7 mirror floaty of my screen

    Re your keyboard, is it possible it just accidently got changed? You know you can change it right? Mine is different because I switched to the Dark theme. BTW that post heading is just golden. Good luck. Posted via the Android Central App

    Samsung s7 mirror floaty of my screen

    Hey, We may have figured out this one. I believe you may be accidentally double pressing your home button when you go to use it. If you have that feature enabled, IT TURNS YOUR CAMERA ON and, more than likely, the last time you used your camera it was in selfie mode. Please let us know. Good...

    galaxy s7 speaker sounds distorted and horrible after trying out waterproof feature

    Hey, You may have found the sound to be back to normal by now because the speaker should have dried out by now. I read this here a while back. Good luck. Just don't let juice or milk get in/on the speaker and dry there... Posted via the Android Central App

    Text notification/preview -- show on locked/AoD/sleep screen (like iphone)?

    For anyone that has some free time, check out the Samsung+ app. I found it in the Samsung folder in my app drawer. It looks like there is a lot of information, including step by step, about the messages notifications. Just hit the plus sign and search for what you need. Good luck. Posted via...

    Text notification/preview -- show on locked/AoD/sleep screen (like iphone)?

    The 'Hide on lock screen' toggle should be to the right and lit-up (enabled) to NOT wake & light-up the screen. Works for me. I wonder how thick the owners manual would be for smartphones these days if it listed how to use every feature? THANK GOD FOR ANDROID CENTRAL! Posted via the Android...

    Text notification/preview -- show on locked/AoD/sleep screen (like iphone)?

    As Spookdroid said, check the notification settings. I'm on t mobile too but I don't think it matters; I just tested it and any texts I get do wake my phone and display on the lock screen for a moment because I adjusted the settings to do so. I also adjusted them to not wake the phone and NOT...

    Why can't I hear well when talking to someone on my phone?

    Re: I cannot hear well from my phone when talking to someone I'm sorry, but the phone is waterproof and the juice is water soluble right? Please try rinsing the earpiece under a mild stream of water from a faucet and let dry completely. Now if it were a drop of waterproof glue or nail polish...

    How can I lock my Samsung Galaxy S7 screen without using the stand by button?

    Try a widget from the Play store called Screen Off and Lock. It's convenient or I'm just lazy...or both. Posted via the Android Central App

    LG G2 Screen Issue

    Anyone else have this problem where part of your screen is dead? Home, quick note and other screens. YouTube seems ok. I guess I'll try a factory reset AT&T BTW. Phone is 17 months old. Posted via the Android Central App
