    Samsung promotion status.

    I got two phones. Got both of my netflix codes. One Gear VR says a shipping date of 4/30. The other says it will be a while (possibly summer) and I can get a $100 coupon for a purchase on Samsung (bull****!). Have not got the pre-paid card for the "free" phone yet from tmo, but they will...

    SD Card Notification keeps popping up - Help !

    So, someone tell me again why the S6 and iPhones suck for not having an SD Card slot?

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    You are right about Samsung Pay, which is one of the things I was excited about, except two of my banks don't support it. Of the three banks I have accounts with, the only one I can add to Samsung Pay was my savings account, and that's kinda useless. Overall I have to say, the only way you can...

    SD Card Notification keeps popping up - Help !

    This isn't a small issue. Every time you get the notification, it's bc the SD card dismounted. If you are taking a video and this happens, the video stops or corrupts. If you are listening to music stored on the card, it stops. I believe the reason samsung did not activate the feature to...

    SD Card Notification keeps popping up - Help !

    I had this same problem and finally fixed it permanently.... Removed SIM and SD Card, did a factory reset of the phone, shut the phone down, opened the box it came in, put it back in the box, closed the box, put the SD Card in my GoPro, put the SIM back in my iPhone 6s. Amazingly I have not...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Chase, you're right, that was a major issue. I honestly only have one friend that has an android phone. We will have massive group texts going and that one android screws up the entire thread.... I became the second headache. The other issue was Life360.... it is not a replacement for Find...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy Just thought I would update this thread. I decided to give the GS7 Edge a shot. Did the 2 for 1 that TMo was having so I could get one for my wife as well. Well the wife did not want to switch, said she liked her phone just fine. I tried to give it a shot...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy I will check it out on youtube. I've looked it up but not looked at the videos.

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy, should I do it? I honestly don't want to have to keep up with two phones. The thought of that would probably drive me to get a motorola flip phone and remove text messaging from it. :-) I did think about using the free line I have TMo as a "work" phone, but...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy I'm probably leaning more towards staying with Apple. iMessage is the killer for me. I actually had the Huwaei watch for a few weeks with my iPhone. Probably the nicest android watch I have seen. Just a pain in the **** to use it with an iPhone. I went to...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy I'm concerned about S Voice on both the watch and the phone. If I can disable on the phone that is great. But how does it work on the watch? Maybe I'll just go to best buy and play with it there to compare.

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy Is SVoice also on the phone still? If SVoice is crap on the watch, how do you control it? I know its silly, but when I'm cooking I like to be able to say "Hey Siri, set a timer for ten minutes" and she just does it! Or I can say "hey siri, send a text...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy 1> iMessage... right I know that iMessage is not there, I guess I was talking more about a similar type messaging from Samsung. I have not heard of SideSync. I will look that up. Does that work on Mac and PC? If so, it may be even better than iMessage as I...

    Switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge , should I do it?

    Re: Switch from iPhone to Galaxy I think you may be right. There are just some features of the S7 that the iPhone does not have and I don't anticipate it getting anytime soon. SD Card, waterproof without a case that causes the phone to sound like crap, and the iPhone camera is now two...
