    Calendar Backup- HOW

    If you are using the default Samsung calendar app, make sure you have the calendar name you use is set to sync. Also on Google Calendar online, make sure that calendar is set to display. It can sync but not display on the online calendar.

    Samsung tab3 8".Battery drain in standby.

    Not normal on mine. Wi-Fi turned on GPS turned on Syncing mail, etc... Surfing the web Reading the news Reading the forums Shopping on Amazon Watched 3-4 YouTube videos, 4 to 10 min long On and off since 8am and it's reporting 80‰ battery left at 3:36 So I would say it's not normal

    New Notification icon in bar that showed u after Jelly Bean update on tablet... WHAT IS IT?

    Silly question. Did you drag down the Notification bar and see if you can tap on the icon and get an app to open? While the Notification bar is down do you have a bar at the top with all the settings icons available? Scroll right to left or visa versa to see all of them

    New Notification icon in bar that showed u after Jelly Bean update on tablet... WHAT IS IT?

    Ok the ear symbol by its self is an international symbol for a hard of hearing or deaf person. Much like the blue sign with a wheelchair is for handicapped. Every answer I can find says to go to your Call Settings (perhaps sound settings) and scroll down untill you find a hearing aid setting...

    New Notification icon in bar that showed u after Jelly Bean update on tablet... WHAT IS IT?

    The only thing I can find says it's a setting for hearing aids, but those are for phones. One persons description described what you show complete with the T. There was only one answer and that again was for hearing aids in settings. The original poster did not answer back. (may have been you) :)

    New Notification icon in bar that showed u after Jelly Bean update on tablet... WHAT IS IT?

    Just a guess, Bluetooth earpiece for the phone? Also check in settings to see if you have a hearing aid setting turned on. They use a similar icon.

    Printing without router

    I believe your Printer will have to be hooked up to the Internet to use it as a remote printer. You may be able to connect your printer to your router with a cable, one of my old printers did this. Not sure about newer printers, since all my newer printers have connected to a wireless router...

    Dropbox / Textmaker sync

    If TextMaker lets you set up a default Document folder, then once you setup the syncing pairs for DropSync using that folder, you never have to deal with it again, Textmaker will automatically save and open from that folder and Dropsync will do all the syncing. I don't use Textmaker on my...
