    Is my tab s2 broken?? Please help :/

    My volume button randomly does the same thing. It's a software problem that came with one of the updates. I simply use the up volume button, then use the touch screen to turn it down. Stupid workaround foe a problem we shouldn't have, but hey, it's a Samsung. What'd you expect? At least it isn't...

    SD card unexpectedly removed

    So far the fix has been to put two layers of masking tape on the back of the card and tray, then stuff it back in. I haven't had a problem since. I'm using a Samsung pro 32gb micro SD card. Either way, Samsung screwed up again. Either their cards don't fit right, or their card socket isn't...

    Does anyone else have this problem? Mine is constantly doing it. It's a problem with the stupid tray, or socket.

    Is the Tab S2 10.1 Sound Good?

    If you are going to use the tab s2 for movie watching there are two huge problems. 1, the speakers are horrible. If you are using headphones then it isn't a problem. But even for youtube, and surfing the Web, they suck. 2, the screen is the wrong aspect ratio and you end up with a lot of unused...

    Trouble with Fingerprint Sensor

    Register several fingerprints. It helps a lot. Apples fingerprint sensor is 100 times better.

    tab s2 auto restart feature

    Samsung recommends having the tablet auto restart. If you go to the Samsung + app and watch some of the videos there they mention doing this.

    Can't find setting

    Yeah I was trying to find a shortcut to grayscale. I was told it dramatically increases battery life, but grayscale is very hard on my eyes and I don't last long enough to test the difference.

    Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 cases...what is everyone using?

    I'm using the Samsung civet on mine. I love it. Is slim, the magnetic stand works very well. I've used previous samsung covers and they all kinda sucked. My only complaint with the Samsung cover is there is no way to stand it up in portrait mode. The tablet was designed to be used in portrait...

    My first Samsung device.

    If you don't line touchwiz then try nova launcher like the last person said. You can make it look however you want. I kinda like TouchWiz. I'm never happy with nova because I'm always tinkering with it. .

    Auto screen brightness still not working

    OK so i moved from the note 10.1 2014 edition to the tab s2 9.7. On my old tablet the screen wound never automatically dim. That seems to be the case on the tab s2 as well. It is on auto brightness, and it goes from dim to bright no problem. But when I turn the lights off I'm sitting there in...

    Can't find setting

    OK. I see the option in Nova launcher, but you have to buy the premium version to get that option. I'll pass. I like the Samsung launcher just fine. Thanks.

    New tab s2 9.7 user

    I put this on another forum, but there seems to be more traffic over here. I thought this might help some people looking at this tablet. So I just switched from the note 10.1 2014 edition and am pleased with the tablet so far. Comparing it directly to the note, the speakers are horrible, and I...

    Can't find setting

    So the guy at bestbuy had his tab s2 set up so he could double tap the home button and the tablet would switch to greyscale. I can't figure out how he did that. Does anyone have any idea how that's done?
