    Is your Snapdragon S8/S8+ Behind on Security Updates?

    I just got the 1 Nov update about an hour ago. (unlocked S8+).

    Any recommendations for leather cases for S+?

    Shieldon and ProCase both make very nice leather wallet cases for both the S8 and S8+. The Shieldon is better for the S8, as the magnets keep the case closed with cards in the pockets. Neither company's S8+ cases stay closed if anything is in the pockets. That being said, the ProCase wallet's...

    Haven't got marshmallow yet ! Is this normal?

    Re: Haven't got marshmallow yet ! Is this normal This won't help with your question, but I wouldn't rush to update. I did by accident and am sorry I did. There's nothing in Marshmallow that has enhanced the use of my Note 4. I don't like the Material Design interface or the new Internet...

    Samsung's Internet Browser 4.0

    It's alright. I liked v3.x much better but it was removed in the Marshmallow upgrade with no way to get back to it. I e-mail sites to myself and others a lot. V4 doesn't copy the web page name to the subject line of the e-mail post, contrary to every other decent browser on earth, which is...

    5.1.1 Sprint OTA for Note 4 (not edge)- "stuff" and Performance Observations

    Yes, it happened to me twice right after the update when I touched it in the Recent list. The third time I tapped the "X" to close the window. It hasn't come back since... yet. I don't know what it was or why. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

    Those who upgraded: How has ICS been? (Should I do it?)

    The Paranoia Rant Also @rafaelluik: True, but what's the recourse? It's built into the OS, or in this case, built out of the OS. And people knew you could disconnect from the network and tracking if you removed the battery from the phone, so they started making phones with no access to the...

    Those who upgraded: How has ICS been? (Should I do it?)

    The inability to turn off background data is disturbing. As I recall, that was the way to keep them, whomever they are, from storing your home network passphrase. These cellphones, while conveniently doubling as nearly indispensable tools of our daily lives, have become data-mining LoJack...

    Those who upgraded: How has ICS been? (Should I do it?)

    I remember reading quite a while back that rooting actually left your phone vulnerable by leaving certain important information unencrypted and easy to pilfer. I don't remember the source now, but it was on established and reputable sites around 2010, 2011, or so. I rooted a Nook Color for a...

    To what, iOS? (Not having any of that.)

    Those who upgraded: How has ICS been? (Should I do it?)

    Hey all, When ICS was first released for the 3D, I heard a lot of complaints and reports of problems, so I didn't upgrade. I was wondering how those of you who did upgrade feel about it after 6 mos, or however long it's been. I still haven't upgraded, but am thinking about it. What do you...

    Cannot get calendar apps to see select Google calendars

    I've done some looking around, but I haven't found a solution that has solved the problem, so I hope this isn't redundant: I have two or three Google calendars. If I go to the website, I see them all fine and can see the information in them. I have my EVO 3D (Gingerbread; too many ICS...

    exchanging my nook tablet

    Off topic, but I just got my Fire, and I agree with you about the interface and the integration. I love it. There are issues with screen responsiveness that I hope will be rectified quickly, but generally I like it a lot, even though it's not a full-fledged tablet. (I've got a Xoom for that.)...

    Problem with Voice Search

    I'm having big trouble with Voice Search on the 3D, whereas it worked really well on the 4G. Whenever I try to use it on the 3D, a window pops up that says: " Google sign-in You entered the wrong password or your account has changed. Please re-enter your password. Username <my YouTube...

    HTC EVO 3D: Issues and Problems...let's talk about them here!

    Re: EVO3D Issues and Problems...let's talk about them here! I used the kickstand a little in the beginning, but not much after that. It still would be convenient to have, though, but Seidio doesn't have a release date set for their kickstand cases yet, I don't think. I'm cycling the battery...
