Please... no wireless charging if it means going to a glass back. Wireless charging is neat, there's no argument there but it's much slower than quick charging so your phone is out of reach for longer. Not all of us work at desks. The metal back feels better and is less likely to slip in your...

Google Now has reminders and just recently it's been allowed to interface with the calendar as well. Another great option is GTasks which interfaces directly with gMail. Haven't had a single issue on ATT S7E. Great phone! Posted via the Android Central App

I dig Action 3 for the quick theme feature. Almost as much flexibility as nova, great shortcut control, and simply load a new wallpaper and everything color matches automatically. Nice for a quick change of pace.

Yeah... you can disable it either in the long press menu from any home screen or in the applications section (enable the showing of system apps) but it doesn't appear that you can replace it readily.

I installed Action 3 launcher and have Flip-board activate on leftmost screen. I can try to monkey with the stock launcher and see if I come up with a solution for ya.

Re: Google now keeps piping up randomly after use in water. Also keep in mind that the phone is merely water resistant, it isn't designed to be used under water. Posted via the Android Central App

Totally agree with the handling. We have the s7 edge and the g5. The s7e is like a slippery eel in the hand while the g5 just rests comfortably. The s7e feels more premium but function is better than form in this category. Posted via the Android Central App

Not really just a counter with the associated app icon. At least it works for most apps rather than system only. Posted via the Android Central App

This is a good tip I always find setting up a new phone clean and going through the motions rather than a restore is preferable. A setting that isn't applicable to the new device can cause issues. Posted via the Android Central App

That can be turned off in Textra settings. Posted via the Android Central App

It's like any computer. Uninstall or disable bloatware and then set it up to your liking. I think this phone is getting seriously bad press for minor reasons. Go to the store to buy it, inspect it before you sign. It's a great phone with an entire industry panning it because they're paid to...

My phone reported fast charging for the duration. It does as well for the supplied charger out of the box. The Aukey seems faster than the one out of the box but I haven't run any definitive tests. Posted via the Android Central App

We have an Aukey 2.0 wall charger that reports fast charging I'll check to see if it's actually for the duration. All I know is full charge is about an hour which is awesome!
