    Boot problem

    Moved my Tab S2 to my wife, and got a Tab S3 when I upgraded my S8 to an S9+ phone. Been using the Tab S3 for three days. Used it this morning. No problems. Turned it off for a few hours. When I booted it on, it asked for my security PIN. I provided it, and all I got for about 15 min was the...

    Google Calendar & S8

    I added the SF Giants schedule, and it puts so much info on each posting that I deleted it all. All I wanted was time and opponent. Not so simple.

    Battery charging packs

    I use imuto units bought on Amazon. I've been laid up after ankle surgery, and have been using my gadgets more than usual. Extension cords to plugs became a PITA. I first bought the 2000mAh unit, but it would charge the S8 only 3x. So, bought the 3000mAh unit, which, of course, has more...

    Tempered Glass For Back of S8?

    Not tempered glass. I just put a dbrand skin on the back of mine. For now, left the screen unprotected. I've tried two tempered glass protectors on the screen. Neither worked. I have a film protector standing by.

    Font sizing

    I recently bought an S8 to replace my S7. My wife who has been using an S5 is trying to move onto my old S7. A problem she is having on the S7 is that some, but not all, of her emails are displaying in very small font, too small to read comfortably. I can "revert" the page, which increases the...

    Verizon Galaxy S8 Iris scanner most always on

    Thanks for the replies, but I am referring to the "Iris scanner" (per the UG) on the far right next to the front camera lens. Per the UG the lamp on the far left is the "Iris detection LED." The scanner maintains a green glow most of the time, sometimes even when the phone is off. And...

    Verizon Galaxy S8 Iris scanner most always on

    Have had the S8 a couple of days, set it up, and changing settings. I started to set the iris scanner, but decided since I wear glasses not to bother. Now, the iris scanner light seems to be on 90% of the time, but it does go dark. Not sure how bright it would be if operative. It's certainly not...
