    How Can I See What's Stored On The SD Card?

    Finally, something that I think I can help with. I think that what people want to be able to do is to see the files stored on the memory card, using... say, Windows Explorer. All Galaxy models have to be placed into Developer Mode first, and find the "USB Debugging" switch. Turn that feature on...

    New S7 update has made the Always On Screen LESS useful!

    I attempted to edit my reply by adding the last paragraph to the 2nd look-alike message above, I don't see a "delete message" option. Just read the 2nd long reply, they are otherwise the same. Argh! I am on too many comment boards for my many interests.

    New S7 update has made the Always On Screen LESS useful!

    1812dave: yes, that turns off notifications across the board, including the AOD and the pull down Notifications - BUT.... missed calls shows up on AOD, but text messages are still not shown there. Dooki: I learned something from you there anyway - Although I first turned off App Notifications...

    Notifications on "Always On Display" lock screen

    Be careful what you wish for. Latest software update changed my phone from having only Missed Calls and Text Message notifications on the AOD to having EVERY notification on the AOD - most of them combined into such things as a catch all "you have messages / email / whatever". Well, duh. Since I...

    Always on Display Question - S7 edge Nougat

    I love the AOD! I just don't love it as much as I did a couple days ago, just before the latest software update. I got Date, Time, Battery %, and only 2 notifications: Missed Calls, and Text Messages. That's all I wanted! It was perfect! Now, I have to turn off all notifications except the...

    Which would YOU choose? Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 edge?

    I had the choice. I chose the "standard" S7. I didn't see any benefits to having the Edge. Place a regular S7 and an Edge side by side with the same screen - the larger screen is... just barely larger. I think most people who prefer the Edge just like the look and/or the feel.

    New S7 update has made the Always On Screen LESS useful!

    I was quite content with my default Always On Screen: with one glance, I could see the date, time, battery state, and on the bottom line, indicators for missed phone calls and texts. I didn't have to touch the phone - all I needed to do was look at it! Things were great... Yesterday, I allowed...

    Updated my galaxy S7 now my text message icon doesnt appear on lock screen

    I assume the you mean your "Always on screen"... Same problem here. Updated S7 software yesterday, and my notifications line on the Always On Screen is full of unnecessary notifications. I don't have a solution - yet
