    Where are ALL the settings that make the screen turn on automatically?

    Yes, I have Do Not Disturb set every day from 10pm-7am. Doesn't stop it from turning the screen on. I do NOT have the "Reminders: Allow Reminders from Apps that Support Them" exception to Do Not Disturb set. Nor do I have the "Messages From" exceptions set.

    Where are ALL the settings that make the screen turn on automatically?

    My s10e, like most phones, has a nice little power button on the side. This should be the ONLY THING that makes the screen turn on!!! Can we compile a list of all the settings you need to change to make this happen? If this phone wakes up me, my wife, and/or our baby one more time by turning the...

    S9 Active - with bevels and bigger battery?

    Receiving copy of SMS text message from unknown phone number?

    Someone texted my Google Voice number, and I received it from multiple numbers, one of which I didn't recognize - +191657213xx. Is this number part of Google Voice, or is my phone hacked or something? Unlocked S7 with AT&T GoPhone service, Marshmallow.

    Fingerprint Unlock Quagmire: if unsuccessful with 1 finger, it REQUIRES 30-second wait!!

    I could not agree more!!! It is OUTRAGEOUS that you can be locked out of your phone without being able to resort to entering a password. It is SO EMBARRASSING when you are trying to use Android Pay to check out, and it rapid-fire rejects your thumbprint before you can even orient your thumb...

    G930U (Unlocked S7) Crippled/Missing Settings

    I got the 930U version of the S7 direct from Samsung, and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed in the fact it seems to be slightly LESS functional than if I'd bought the phone direct from a carrier. Sure, I can opt in or out of carrier bloatware - but I did NOT expect to have features that...
