    Samsung Link AND Kies do NOT work with S7

    I hate this! I use Link all the time and love that I can have it automagically back up photos from phone to PC. Samsung link allows you to wirelessly transfer files in AND outside your home network. Also, it can link all my phones, tablets, etc to each other and the PC. That's what I'm looking...

    Samsung Link Going Away

    Again, not quite. SideSync is more of a screen mirroring app that lets you control the phone through the computer or device to device. I'm looking for more of a media sharing/syncing app more like AirDroid.

    Samsung Link Going Away

    Not quite. I want to be able to link all my mobile devices (phone, tablet, etc) and my laptop. Not so interested in the cloud, but rather access and syncing of files (photos, music, docs) on the devices themselves. I really liked the interface of Samsung Link. Hoping to find something very similar.

    Samsung Link Going Away

    AFAIK it is being discontinued. I use it all the time too and am sad to see it go. I'm on the hunt for a worthy replacement. Suggestions welcome.

    Is this strange blue charging screen caused by a virus?

    I just found this Crapware on my phone! I found it was installed by an update to PHONE CLEAN. Avoid this app! I should have known better that I don't even need a RAM cleaner in the first place. I don't even have ES File Explorer or any of the other suspected apps that install this adware...

    Galaxy S6 edge- why doesn't my fingerprint scanner scan my whole thumb

    When you register your fingerprints you have to place and hold your fingertip on the sensor then lift it off. Follow the instructions at the bottom of the screen. You have to place and lift your fingertip on and off the sensor several times until the circle around the print reaches 100%. It...

    Fingerprint Reader not working after Verizon Marshmallow Update

    Have you had anyone else try to open your phone with their fingerprint(s)? You could try restarting your phone and then rescanning your fingerprints and try again.

    Marshmallow Update: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

    I think Verizon is having some problems with their Marshmallow rollout. You may have been caught in the middle of this. See this thread Problems Downloading Marshmallow - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com

    New update = altered keyboard

    Yes, it is extremely annoying! It happened when my S6E updated to 6.0.1. I can get used to the new placement of the symbols, but the thing is now when you long-press you get a bunch of special characters and not just the symbol. You then have to select the symbol/character from there. That is...

    6.0.1 Finally

    I'm getting it too! In SoCal.

    Is it normal? S6 edge

    I just checked my S6E and if I look into the headphone jack I can see the backlight from the capacitive light in when it's lit.

    Edge screen with Marshmallow

    Sorry I just realized you were asking about Marshmallow and not 5.1.1 :-[

    Is it still worth it getting this phone?

    Have you tried Googling around for pricing on a used S6E. Also, check out somewhere like Swappa.com to see what they're going for.

    Is it still worth it getting this phone?

    I have a gold S6E and I love it! The gold is beautiful in person. I have a gold and black theme on it and it looks very nice. I get pretty decent battery life and have had no overheating problems to speak of. I do keep a pretty close eye on what I have running at any given time to avoid battery...

    Are you upgrading? Why and why not?

    I just got my S6 Edge in December due to my killing my GS5 :'( I'm still very happy with the S6E so I probably won't be upgrading anytime soon.
