    New SoundAssistant app from Samsung

    I can't adjust the Google Map Navigation volume, even when I follow the steps given by edubb256. And the funny thing is... I'm pretty sure I could adjust this app's volume before (week 1 of S8 ownership). I could also set it to play always through the phone speaker instead of my car's bluetooth...

    New SoundAssistant app from Samsung

    The option to adjust individual app volumes provides me with a blank list, also.

    external speaker vs cell-phone speaker

    My wife and I both have Verizon GN3s and both of us are experiencing a weird volume/speaker issue. We start the Google Maps and then Navigator, and then the volume is super quiet. This happens on both GN3s even if we push the slide volume buttons. With the volume at maximum, we still can't hear...

    Google Navigator Voice

    Thanks. I see there are options. Tapping the Android version x 7 is pretty weird. I'm not sure I'm in developer mode, but I can see the text-to-speech options. That's good. P.S. I searched for the solution to this problem in this Note 3 Verizon forum but didn't get results using keywords...

    Google Navigator Voice

    In my family we used Google Navigator to get around DC, and we used it on our two smartphones: HTC Evo 4G LTE (wife) and Samsung Galaxy S2 (husband). We recently switched to Verizon, and we both now have Samsung Galaxy Note 3s. The voice in the Google Navigator is harder to understand: it...

    Verizon30 works with Note 3

    I feel like there is a carrot dangling in front of me and I can't quite get it. I'm chatting online with VZW now. Fingers crossed!

    My Verizon note 3 just arrived

    I'm in DC too and I got mine today. But now I'm on the phone with Verizon customer care--these are some moronic CSRs. They're trying to figure out how to port my number from Sprint. I've been on the phone with them for over an hour on the phone. They just told me "Well it's complicated because...

    Verizon... On FedEx vehicle for delivery!

    :-[ My wife was in the shower when FedEx came to our door with a box containing one white Note 3 and one black Note 3. :'( :D -- But -- it's all good because we're going to go pick it up at 5pm at the local FedEx facility. I shall not sleep another night before giving sweet caresses to a...

    Ditto. Happy dance. I called FedEx and the CSR said it would be delivered to me this afternoon.

    Somewhat surprised that the hype machine is already dying down

    My office mate, who is an iPhone user, just returned from visiting family in India, and she said Galaxy Notes were ubiquitous. So I'm not too worried about there being accessories, apps, and such.

    Let's Face It Verizon Bretheren

    Same here. My VISA card just got charged for two Note 3s. My official Verizon "Order Status" web page has changed: it now has "Tracking Number" listed under "Order Number" although there is no tracking number there yet. Still I have hope that I'll have two Note 3s before the end of the week...
