    Screen Off Notes App

    Yeah sure seems that way. Sucks because that means the Note 10 or if it happens Note 11 are basically the only choice for what my next phone will be in a year or so haha.

    Screen Off Notes App

    Hi, Is there an app that lets you do something similar to the Galaxy Note series' Screen Off Note Taking on any Android phone? I sometimes like to take notes during movies (I have a movie podcast) and I love that I can just pull the pen out and write a note without my screen lighting up (and...

    Fingerprint with Swipe Unlock

    Thanks for the reply. That sucks. Guess I'll just go back to unlocking my phone 900 times a day haha

    Fingerprint with Swipe Unlock

    A long time ago I was told no, it's not possible but it's been a while so I was wondering if there's any workaround at this point with updates... Is it possible to still use fingerprints for things like Lastpass and Samsung Pay but just have Swipe unlock? I am so sick of unlocking my phone 900...

    Note 8 Recent Calls had a date from the future

    Yes at some point he accidentally changed the time earlier this week (I wasn't there so I didn't see what exactly he did, but somehow or other he changed it and I worked him through over the phone figuring out how to set it back to automatic). So you think maybe he accidentally changed the date...

    Note 8 Recent Calls had a date from the future

    This is so bizarre... And I did some searching and haven't been able to find anything... My dad's Note 8 (AT&T) stopped showing any new recent calls in the call log... Finally I realized that at the top was the date June 26th, 2018. So I scrolled down down down until the next separator and it...

    Samsung's Battery Draining Apps Thing

    I'm just curious, and this is not really a new Note 8 thing, my S8+ and S7 Edge before it were the same way... But like 9 out of 10 times that I unlock my phone, Samsung is suggesting through its Battery Saving app thing that I shut off some app that's using 1%+ per hour of battery. 9 times out...

    Can S8 nav bar get Burn in?

    Really good question. I've only had my S7 edge for a year and it had the Facebook messenger UI burned in. I'd imagine the nav bar is up way more than that.

    S8 / S8+ First Impressions Thread

    So far very happy. A little getting used to some things but very impressed with performance even during and after installing dozens of apps. My only real complaint would be that as much as I like the stock keyboard, the voice typing (through Bixby I guess?) Is laughably bad. It was SO off at...

    Best App for finding rogue apps

    Hey all, I've seen some articles on the subject matter but they're all from a couple years ago and I figured there's probably some newer info that might be better... If I'm having issues like slow performance, apps taking a long time to load, battery drain (not so much this one), and...

    Overheating & Screen Burn In & Safe Mode

    btw... follow up... if instead of a system restore, if i just delete every app i haven't used in a while and see if that makes a difference... COULD that make a difference? or is it not good enough to delete apps, i gotta not install them in the first place (after a restore)

    Overheating & Screen Burn In & Safe Mode

    Hey Everyone, OK so this is a bit of a multi-part question... I'll go in order of importance... 1) My Galaxy S7 Edge has been overheating lately. I don't necessarily care if it gets a little warm, but since I demo a VR Music Video that was made for me on the Gear VR and need it to work, it's a...

    Security / Fingerprint Question

    9 times out of 10 that's all it is but that 10th time it doesn't recognize my finger print even though I've registered all my fingers to make it as simple as possible. And that's not often, but when it happens it's so annoying. And I honestly have no need for the screen to lock like that. My...
