    What is this notification symbol?

    Peel smart remote? See if you have Peel smart remote app running in the background.. and if so try to force stop that to see if that icon goes away. Good luck!

    How to verify genuine Note 4 battery?

    Hi, I just ordered a new OEM Samsung Galaxy Note 4 battery from eBay for about 13 or 14 bucks. I am curious if there is a way to verify whether the one I get is a genuine Samsung battery. Any idea on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Does leaving a phone charging overnight harm the battery?

    The way I had been understanding it is that the thing that we plug in to the wall outlet is an adapter (not a charger) which outputs a specific rating of DC current. The chargers are within the device which is smart enough (at least on most smartphones) to know whether the battery is fully...

    System android consumes way too much battery

    I have had this issue once and turning location service off had helped me, not sure if that'll help you as well but something worth trying I think.

    Gmail killing my phone's battery. I don't see anywhere in options that asks how often to sync?

    Note 4 camera focus problem

    Replaced Printer now I can't print

    Do you have the HP Print Service Plugin installed? If not you would want to install from Play store and see if your device finds your HP printer. I think your printer and the phone has to be on the same neteork. Not sure if this helps. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    Porting Google voice number

    Once you port, assuming VZ allows, that number would become a VZ number and should work just like any other VZ number - no difference. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

    Help with disabling car mode

    When you open DriveMode app, there is a setting botton on top right corner which gives you different settings choices, and one of that is the "auto mode" on/off switch. Did you try turning that off? The switch on the home screen that you mentioned is to manually turn on/off for one time...

    Tap and hold the msg you want to delete (not see left/right) selects the msg (you'll see it checked), then you'll see a delete/trash-can button on top for delete.

    How can I get rid of Google services pop up ads!?

    Do you have AppLock free version installed? If yes, that app by default uses the full screen ad, you do have a choice to switch to banner ad instead though. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
