    Does anyone know what this icon is?

    Isn't that the Pinned note icon? Try double tapping on it and see what comes up. You might have a saved/pinned note in your Samsung Notes app.

    Disable keyboard cover when flipped back?

    Another workaround that I've been using when holding the tablet as a notepad for instance is to flip the cover around so that the keys are facing the inside back cover. It won't secure the keyboard on the magnetic pin since that's not the way it's supposed to be used, but at least you aren't...

    Keyboard cover nightmare

    My keyboard cover came in yesterday and so far so good. Aligned it as instructed and it stuck on firmly. Seems to be a hit or miss as some of the YouTube videos I watched had that "not sticking to the tablet firmly" issue while others have had no problems. HOPEFULLY, this doesn't become an issue...

    New Tab S6?

    My Tab S6 arrived yesterday sans keyboard cover case (arriving separately.) I only had a short time to play with me but it should make a nice complement to its little brother, the Note 9. 😂 It is essentially a jumbo-sized Note. And I love it.

    Bye Guys

    Not leaving, sticking with the Note 9. The only way I'll upgrade is if someone gifts me a Note 10+ or Verizon gives me one for nearly free. Neither will be happening 😂

    Who is planning to trade in for the Note 10?

    Agreed. The Note 9 is definitely the first phone where I don't feel the need to upgrade to the next/greatest. Also, $$$. What I might do instead is upgrade my old, aging Tab S2 tablet with either the S5e or the new Tab S6. Or wait for the rumored 8" S2 successor. Yes, I still use a tablet. :)

    frustrated

    I've been using both the Samsung S-View flip cover case and the rugged case. I switch them out whenever I feel like it, really :) Both have the pros and cons. I tend to get more compliments and questions when I'm rocking the S-View flip cover case because it really is a pretty case. (Not that I...

    What are the best messaging apps for the Note 9

    Besides the stock Samsung Messages app, I use: FB Messenger, Hangouts, KakaoTalk, GroupMe, Line (sometimes), and Telegram. Samsung Messages, FB Messenger, and KakaoTalk seem to be the ones I use the most on a regular basis.

    How Do You Carry Your Note9?

    Back pocket, coat pocket, suit pocket (when I am wearing a suit), or in my hands. If I'm sitting, it's on the table or on my lap when there is no table. Alternate between the S-View flip cover case or the heavy duty Samsung case.

    Samsung Pay glitch after Pie update

    Not a huge thing but has anyone tried using Samsung Pay with the phone off? You can set it so all you have to do is slide up on the screen to activate Samsung Pay. Just tried that and it would get me to my cards but then it just seemed to freeze. It would not register my fingerprint. When I...

    Anyone using the galaxy buds?

    Ordered my Galaxy Buds and should get them by the end of this month. Currently using the IconX 2018s so looking forward to the "upgraded" earbuds.

    Any Common Issues With Android Pie Update?

    Pi seems to be settling down after a few days. I had one "glitch" and that was my alarm didn't go off. A family member woke me up in a panic thinking I was sick or something. I pulled my phone off the wireless charger and noticed it was on the encryption unlock screen. I thought it odd since the...

    Do not disturb after update.. not working

    I had to tweak some DND settings to receive emails and notifications in the background. The first night I set it and woke up there were oddly no notifications showing on the screen. They started coming in when I turned off DND. Not sure if that was a "Pi settling in" glitch or what not. Not a...
