    Easy Phone Sync??

    I searched for forever a while back and finally came across easy phone sync. I had my doubts about it at first but figured it was worth a shot. I expected it to work but didn't expect it to be as good as it is. It won't allow the transfer of DRM protected media but that's kinda to be expected...

After exhausting everything I could possible think of I decided to do a factory reset and it worked!...well kinda.

    No Keyboard Tap Sound

    I cannot for the life of me get the keys on my on screen keyboard to "click" when im typing. The vibration works fine but the key taps refuse to function. I have enabled the key tap sounds from the language and input options. I have set all the volume settings up and still nothing. I just went...

    Write-to-text, how?

    For anything that you use the keyboard for then yes.

    Write-to-text, how?

    You have to use the Samsung keyboard first of all. If you are then just press and hold the microphone key to the left of the spacebar, 8 new buttons pop up and you need to click on the one with the "T" and the pen symbol. This will bring up a blank area which you can now write in. You can also...

    MMS download file location

    Where at in the settings are you seeing this? The first time I used the camera it asked where I wanted to save pictures I take with the phone which I set to the external sd card but the attachments from messages don't save there, they save to the downloads folder in the device memory and I can't...

    MMS download file location

    When trying to download a picture from an mms the file automatically saves to /sdcard0/download. I don't want the files to save here, I'd like them to save to my download folder on /extsdcard/download. I've tried moving the folder from sdcard0 into the download folder of extsdcard but that...

    Location services issue.

    I'm at work currently so I'm just messing with stuff in my down time. I did do a restart and at first I still had the problem. It seems to be a little better now but I'll mess with it a little more throughout the day and report back. Thanks for all the help everyone.

    Seidio Active Case vs. Otterbox Defender vs. Seidio Surface

    Im actually not having any dead spot issues with the surface. It seems like some are and some aren't which is kinda odd. I could care less about the kickstand personally. I had it built into the thunderbolt and used it maybe 2 times in almost 2 years. I'm leaning more toward the active but...

    Location services issue.

    No offense taken. Im just used to the thunderbolt where I didnt need gps turned on unless I was actually using the navigation. It still usually had my location correct to within a couple hundred meters. I know the battery life is excellent it just seems to me it shouldn't be needed 100% of the time.

    Location services issue.

    For some reason my note 2 is having a hard time determining my current location. I dont have the gps turned on but I have never needed it on before with my old thunderbolt. I have the vzw locations on and google locations on but still no luck. I use weatherbug and google maps a lot which both...

    Seidio Active Case vs. Otterbox Defender vs. Seidio Surface

    all of this is great info! I finally decided to pull the trigger and get the Note 2 and love it, however it's taking some time getting used to this huge thing. I got the best buy version of the surface combo and like how it fits but I don't feel like it adds enough protection. It's also very...
