    Can I use Skype in Canada?

    Re: Can I use skype in Canada Yes, that's what I thought, I used skype in Europe with no problems. I also got a Virgin guy who said I can put skype on my Samsung. Just a note, my laptop (XP) takes a few beats to type out each letter. Don't have that problem on any other website.

    Can I use Samsung & skype in Canada

    I'm traveling to Canada in a few weeks, I have Samsung Ring (Virgin) and it won't work in Canada and threat of hundreds of dollars if I attempt. Ironically Virgin has Samsungs in Canada but apparently not connectable. So I though I would use skype in my Samsgun and wonder if that would work?

    Can I use Skype in Canada?

    Can I use skype in Canada I have a Virgin Samsung Galaxy "Ring" and am going to Canada. But Virgin US won't work there (even though it's carrier Sprint does) as Virgin has a Cdn version conflict. I can call Canada from US but not while in Canada so I thought I could use skype. The Virgin...

    How to clear old phone calls

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Ring from Virgin, my first smartphone. I'm catching on slowly for most things but can't figure out how to clear old phone calls in one move rather than having to delete 40 or so one at a time. Manual is pretty useless. My phone uses Version 4.1.2, if that helps.

    delete texts

    Yes, it says copy msg/copy msg text/lock msg/forward/view msg details. But I can only delete 1 msg at a time rather than a group. NOTE: I figured it out, there's a trashcan on top right side, I press it and it has a Select All check and will delete thread. thanks

    delete texts

    I'm using Messenger. I press a text and app has delete and a few other commands but will only delete that one text. If I tap a few times, that one text just fills the screen.

    delete texts

    Still learning on Samsung Galaxy Ring; how can I delete all texts in a thread rather than just delete one at a time? I played around with touch, slide, etc. with no luck.

    How to find phone

    Just trying to find out what's best, and Samsung doesn't really give much information on this except that it has its own, which I mentioned. I tended to leave my cellphone in my car or cafes as I don't really use cell/smartphones that much, working at home where I use my landline about 90%.

    What do I expect from micro-SD card

    Well, I'm not sure what the macro-SD slot is for, doesn't mention it much in the manual. I would only use it for transferring photos but again, I don't know what else it is for besides that.
