    Lock screen and charging changes?

    Hello. Since the new update, my lock screen no longer shows me the subject of a text or email. I only see the icons. Is there any way to retrieve that? Also since the update, any time I place my phone on a charger, I get a sound ,and I’d love to remove it. Any idea on how to change that...

    New galaxy watch. Turn off Bluetooth connection sound?

    Hello, and Happy New Years! For Christmas, my wife got me the new galaxy watch to replace my gear3 frontier. New watch is gorgeous. But, every time it goes in and out of Bluetooth range, I get a sound and notification on my Verizon S 9+. For the life of me, I can’t find the way to turn it...

    S7 connection problems - Verizon

    Hello. Having some issues with my Galaxy S7 consistantly dropping wifi coverage. I'll be connected, then it will drop, and then be unable to find an IP address. It's not just at home . . . it's everywhere I go. It's very frustrating, and kills my battery and data. Any thoughts? Doug

    Thanks for the response. I do not have Galaxy apps, so there is no way to get to the exclusives.

    Lost exclusive apps - verizon

    Hello. I can't seem to find my exclusive apps from Samsung on my Verizon phone. I don't have a galaxy app drawer. Am I missing something? How can. I get those apps? Thanks, Doug

    Widget direct to dial?

    Hello . . . pretty sure on my S5 I had a contact widget that let me call a contact with one push. Looks like the only contact widget I have on this phone (Verizon S6) takes me to the contact. Anyone know of an app that can do something similar for me? I tend to put my contacts in group...

    Connecting to router?

    Hello there. Random problem while traveling I'm visiting my mother in law in Denmark, and my S5 wont connect to her internet router. My ipad and my wife's iPhone find her wifi with no problems, but my s5? No luck at all. Even added manually, it can't be found. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

    Is the S Band ever coming out?!

    I have the fitbit and really like it. It syncs automatically (through Bluetooth) to the S4, and will give a notification if I need to charge it (every week or so). It like that it's smaller, and I can keep it on a belt loop or in a pocket. I don't like things on my wrists . . .

    Three random problems/questions

    Thanks for the help. Can't believe I missed "panorama mode." Forgive me on that one. I blew right by it! The call recording option was unchecked . . . so I rebooted, and an unread text came up. No indicator before, but it came up after. It's cleared, and the blue light is on. Thanks for all...

    Three random problems/questions

    Hello there. I'm loving my S4 . . . here are my questions. 1. In just the last few days, I've noticed my blue LED notification light stays on all the time. It's like it comes on when finished charging . . . and forgets to turn on. Thoughts? (edited to add . . . it's only on when the screen is...

    I wish my phone was not plastic

    Tried both phones, and the S4 was a better phone for me. Just liked it more. As for looks, I use a case on mine, so it was irrelevant. The phone looks how I want it to look. Metal body versus plastic body was not much of an issue. I liked the screen, the camera, and the "whole-phone" experience...
