    unable to set ringtone in facebook messanger

    Is there any way to fix this, AdmiralSirJohn? I have tried everything I know to have Megasound stop doing the "when a notification comes in, mute it" thingy and I can't. Have email the developer but haven't heard anything yet. You said it was doing it again. What did you do to fix it the first...

    Gear VR and Oculus

    Well finally figured it out. I did a search on the Oculus Site under the Support/Gear VR section and was reading a post that was exactly like my problem. On about the third or forth reply someone mentioned that if you had an app blocking anything from FACEBOOK, it would not load as Oculus uses...

    Gear VR and Oculus

    Yes sir. I am on WiFi and thought if I disconnected from WiFi and tried to download via the 4G LTE Network that would help. But only thing that changed was the speed that it took to download the update. Reconnected WiFi and same thing. "Update Now" just stuck in a continuous loop and can not...

    Gear VR and Oculus

    Just got my Gear VR Headset and followed all the steps to get it working. Plugged the phone in and got the GEAR VR Software download screen. Now all it does is it shows "Update Required" and shows Oculus System Activites and "Update Now". I have done the Update Now like 20, 21, 22, etc. Times...

    Is there an App that will let you determine when to Update Installed Apps?

    Yes I saw that when I tried that way of doing things. I turned off the Global Auto-Update and then went back to disable individual apps and just like you said in your second post, it prompted me to enable the global Auto-Update. I did not change the settings and will just wait for a prompt to...

    Is there an App that will let you determine when to Update Installed Apps?

    Thank you both for the tips. I never knew those settings were available. Really new to Android as just got rid of my Windows Phone a couple of months ago. Did not have to worry about updates on the apps on the Windows Phone as there weren't any. :)

    Is there an App that will let you determine when to Update Installed Apps?

    I know that google play store updates when ever new updates are available, but is there an app that will let you select when to update? I tried Smart App Manager, but that didn't really do anything but check for updates. And I have looked at the settings and there is a setting to select "No...

    How to remove the Battery in the Notification Area?

    Ok that is what I was afraid of. And as for rooting my phone, am going to wait on that until there is a more stable version out and a few more months under warranty as I have only had the phone for about a month. Thank you for your reply...

    How to remove the Battery in the Notification Area?

    Is it even possible to remove the Battery Icon from the Notification area at the top of the phone. I have found the remove the Percent % in the notification area, but didn't find any way to remove the Battery Icon. Did a search and found all the posts on the Percent Sign but nothing on the...

    an easy way to close my S7 edge screen?

    Besides what Chanchan05 has mentioned, I currently use Smart Screen On/Off Auto. It works great for me anyway. You can double tap the screen or use the Off Button created from the app to close the screen. When you are ready to turn it back on, just motion your hand in front of the screen and it...

    Turn off Encryption without Root?

    Is there anyway to turn off the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge encryption without having Root Access? I have looked and so far I have not been able to find how to accomplish this yet. I have tried the search feature on the forum, but all I ever get is other phones and not the S7E. I am having an issue...

    AT&T S7 Edge update 8-25-16 PH1

    I am sorry for the question, as I have only had my S7 Edge about 3 weeks now, but what is the Palm Rejection that you are speaking of? I know nothing of that feature and would like to know what to look for on my phone. I use the palm swipe to turn off my screen but I don't think that is what...

    S7 Edge, Volume lock?

    Thank you very much, Tom Tame. I have the same problem with the original poster and it was getting very frustrating. Just downloaded and installed this little jewel and works just like you said. I even tried to change the ringtone volume and it would move then return to the original position...
