Interestingly, samsung's mail app is there by default and can't be moved. That app absolutely will will not get push notifications until you open it. Not always, but often enough to indicate they made some changes, and not for the better. Gmail? Did they ever fix that app it so it just...

Nice phone but, unbeknownst to me, as of 6.0 some clown at google decided to kill push email to save battery. Does nobody get important, timely email anymore?

I had this issue. Turned the "always on" screen back on and that fixed it. I don't care for the always on screen, so if there is a work around to get notification for email without the always on screen, I'd like to know about it.

I read Samsung is letting the S8 series disable Bixby. Any word if this courtesy will be extended to the Active?

The chick at the ATT store had an S8, in a case, with a cracked screen. She said it was the 3rd or 4th S8 she had cracked. Edge this.

I ran speck cases on my S3. Not a clear one, the hard/soft composite cases. They lasted a few months then started to disintegrate, the hard plastic would crack at the thin spots. I got a homogeneous body glove case from the ATT store when I picked up the S6 active. 2 years later it looks...

I have a pro clip mount in my van. Adjusts to take any phone and, at least in my application, looks factory. They make vehicle specific mounts.

is there an app to open them? Had one on my s3 and the s6 doesn't like it.

Mini is what I saw as well. Mini being "normal," followed by micro and nano. A standard sim is the size of a credit card!

Getting conflicting info in a google search. Can someone tell me what size sim the mini uses? TIA

"The Samsung Galaxy S? III runs on the Android™ 4.3 operating system." It's contradictory. The overview shows 4.3, the details show 4.4. Overview wins on a technical knockout.

You're in luck. All of those issues are covered in this thread.
