    No more mini opera on gear s

    http://apps.samsung.com/gear/appDetail.as?appId=com.opera.mini I got this directly from the app page, but every time I try it, it fails. I hope you all have better luck.

    No more mini opera on gear s

    I had the same problem. I managed to redownload it by going to the Gear App Store > My Apps > All. It was there with the download button next to it. From what I can tell, if you haven't previously installed it, you're out of luck. The app page DOES exist, but it's not in the app store, and I...

    After 4months, How's your S8/S8+?

    Great so far. I went from a Galaxy Alpha to the S8, and believe me, I do not regret it one bit! Quite the opposite, as a matter of fact.

    Opera mini for gear s

    It does exist for the Gear S. I probably use it as much as any other app. However, it's hard to find for some unknown reason. An app store search doesn't return any results. I don't know if it will work, but try this... http://apps.samsung.com/gear/appDetail.as?appId=com.opera.mini

    Galaxy S8 car charger

It's only a single USB, but it's true fast-charging, and it's flush...it doesn't protrude out like almost all others. I've got other USB ports in my car, so I can...

    How do I get Opera mini on my Gear S?

    I had trouble finding it when I switched phones recently and had to reset the watch. It wasn't in the app store. I could only find it in the list of my apps. I don't know if this helps, but here's the link: http://apps.samsung.com/gear/appDetail.as?appId=com.opera.mini

    Wireless Charging Issues (S6 Edge + New Charger)

    I use Dock Clock, which I set to activate when power is connected (i.e., as soon as I set the phone on the charger). That eliminates the lock screen problem. BTW, I use the adjustable Tmvl T3 charger. I like it a lot. Posted via the Android Central App

    Android 5.0 update forAT&T Galaxy Alpha (G850A) is out

    9:15pm and I'm still at 65% after another day of normal use (including a bit of time on a wireless charger mid-afternoon). No heat issues. I don't know what I did, but I can live with this (though battery life is still down somewhat from before the update). Maybe it was all those notification...

    Android 5.0 update forAT&T Galaxy Alpha (G850A) is out

    One thing I DID do was to go through virtually every app, looking for notification settings. I turned off everything I didn't absolutely want (e.g., I kept things like email and FB notifications, but I don't need Slacker telling me about the latest album releases). Posted via the Android...

    Android 5.0 update forAT&T Galaxy Alpha (G850A) is out

    That'll definitely help in general, but from my experience, location is not culprit in Lollipop. I had mine on power-saving both before and after the update, so that doesn't account for my battery drain. Having a good battery day today. 8:30pm and I'm still at 70% after a normal day. Posted...
