    MMS Texting Problem Since Update Sprint

    Since the ARF9 update on Sprint, picture texts will sometimes go through. Sometimes not. Usually if I restart my phone, they'll send. Having the same issue with receiving MMS texts. I thought it might just be my phone, but my wife's did the same update over the weekend and she's having the same...

    S9+ X Doria Defense Shield Case

    Just got this case yesterday, and I really like it. Not as protective as an Otterbox Defender or anything, but has a clear back, aluminum frame (black, red or iridescent). The feature I like best, though is that the case routes the speaker sound out to the front instead of the bottom! Check it...

    Fingerprint Biometrics without secure lock screen possible?

    I'd like to keep my lock screen on my S9+ set to swipe, but would like to be able to log into PayPal and apps that use the fingerprint scanner... I had it on my S8+, but when I log my fingerprints and go back to swipe it requires you to delete any stored biometrics. I'm sure there is a...

    S8 Plus Battery Apparently Ventrd

    Anybody else have this problem? I noticed about 2 weeks ago that my battery on my S8 Plus was dying quicker than usual. Yesterday I could only get about 5 hours out of a charge. Took my case off today, and the battery has swollen to the point where the back is coming off! Called Samsung. They...

    How is the call quality?

    Re: call quality? I thought about that and checked... Wifi calling was off (never even set up). I don't think it's the speakers or anything, because it sounds the same through Bluetooth.

    How is the call quality?

    Re: call quality? Love the phone other than this (and the lockscreen clock). Callers sound tinny and they say I sound like I'm in a box.

    Best Buy Pre-Orders

    Ordered 2 S8 Plus for delivery (Sprint). Both show In Progress... One was delivered today and the other one hasn't shipped. I'd say BB bit off more than they could chew on this release. 30 minutes after UPS delivered the first one, I got a text stating that it had been shipped. Out of curiosity...

    What case if any have you ordered already?

    I'm curious too. I considered it, but I wanted something that would show off the phone rather than hide it. Went with my standby of a UAG Plasma Cobalt. I saw that it went from $29 to $39 on UAGs website on Monday. Checked Amazon and they still listed it for $29, sold by UAG directly... Pulled...

    s7 edge 7.0 beta thread

    Seems like every update, the battery life has gotten a little worse. I've cleared cache, but nothing seems to help much. According to GSam in now using around 7% per hour using the middle setting on power save. I was around 5.5% per hour on MM.

    s7 edge 7.0 beta thread

    I experienced something similar. Apps weren't deleted, but most of my home screen icons were gone. I am using Nova Launcher.

    Recommend a wireless charger for S7 Edge?

    The Tylt Vu is awesome if you're not worried about fast charging. Site at a nice angle and has a wide lip at the bottom. I use the Tylt on my nightstand and have a Samsung fast wireless stand at work.
