NB. So I edited the initial text above and now it's shown the reply pane {slaps forehead with hand!} So: I do wish the 'Powers that be' that write these things would stop second guessing what users want. The ability to dismiss the numbers was very useful. Now, as it seems from your kind reply...

My S7 Galaxy edge has always popped up with little numbers saying, for example, how many waiting text messages, or emails were waiting to be viewed. Before the recent update I used to be able to press and hold the icon (or icon group) to dismiss the little numbers and 'clear' the icon (or icon...

More or less what the title says. All of a sudden the stock alarm clock has stopped presenting me with the option to snooze after the main alarm sounds. It seems to be having problems since updating. The fact that its icon has also changed leads me to think that a change must have occurred...

Hi tfp - I found that chain of commands on the S7, but I can't turn it off, as what it keeps wanting me to do is to turn it on (something I've not yet done since it is the last things I want to happen - if I could delete the app. I would do so, call me a Luddite if you want to, but I much prefer...

I understand from reading other threads that Google Assistant is here to stay, but is there a way of disconnecting the launch of the application from the home button? I use the fingerprint scanner on the home button and it will insist on launching Google Assistant every time it unlocks the...

The single most effective saver of battery on my S7 edge is to turn down the brightness of the display to around 30% on the slider - after 10 mins you won't notice you've done so. I also find turning off the GPS when I don't need it is helpful.

As per the title - Is there a setting on a Samsung Galaxy S5 which would turn off the ability to hear the dialling tones of the phone being called. My daughter often calls my phones (land lines and S7 mobile on the same service provider) and whereas when you normally call a phone you can hear...

mine came through two days ago

Mine came through zpy9

According to the email received today my VR should be delivered tomorrow!

After all they are supposed to be Gorilla glass. I just work on the theory that the sticky plastic cover just should help to resist the glass shattering.

I gave up withe glass 3D ones and now have the cheap soft plastic moldable plastic covers on my phones, a huge improvement IMO

Re: CONFIRMED: Good news :) Samsung Will Release Galaxy Note 8 in 2017 As someone that has not seen one what is so good about these Note phones? I know they have the capacitive pen, but that just seems an added faff to use each time when a finger will do. TBH I am surprised the Galaxy S7 Edge...

I have had no success getting the camera to use the SD card for picture storage (if anyone has clues I would appreciate them). However, I don' t rely on my phone for music, instead I manage it all on my PC. Since I therefore don't backup music on the phone all my backups are speedier and less...

I use my edge screen. People edge is first one, I use it all the time. I also have apps, tasks and data edges live.
