    Verizon Message+

    I had the same problem with the Verizon Message Plus. I needed to hear a longer notification tone. I finally switched back to Google messenger.

    Where To See Signal Strength on Pixel?

    I just checked my signal strength and it is -98dbm. I don't understand why this matters though, because I just read that signal strength is dependent on distance from the cell tower. Is the pixel different?

    why does pixel not do whole image when I choose one of my pics as a wallpaper?

    When I try to use a picture as wallpaper I only get about 25% of it. the galaxy s6 never did that. 25% of a picture doesn't even make sense.

    Notification not working

    My previous phone was a Galaxy s6, and I was very used to opening my phone and looking for that little number. The Galaxy s6 had that function. Now I have to look at a little icon on the top of the screen to see if I have a message. I am hard of hearing, so I often don't hear the audible...

    Notification not working

    Hi, I am not getting that little number that is next to the messaging icon. I just spent several hours on the phone with a Verizon tech, she put me on hold to speak to Google, and the upshot is that I will not get that notification number until Google changes something. She said that everyone...

    Well it's official (Samsung Pay fail)

    I'm using Samsung Pay with Chase--my Southwest rewards card. Works every time, except with Aaron Brothers, who say they don't have anything set up for it in their software or registers. I know, no one else had anything set up either but it worked, but gets rejected at Aaron Bros.

    Wow. I wonder if that is true of Samsung tablets as well? I wonder why Broadcom felt the need to do this?

    Galaxy A vs 4 vs note 2014

    I just bought a tab A and it is a good tablet. I also found out that it will be getting Marshmallow sometime in 2016. It does already have Lollypop. I think 4 is still Kitkat and I don't know about the Note. I would think that the A would be a good value because of the latest OS. Sorry...

    Why can't I get the cover on my new samsung galaxy Tab S2

    B Diddy, I had the same problem, I finally returned everything. The case supposedly snaps on, but it wouldn't. You have to see it to know what I mean. It is not just a matter of a case not fitting. There are holes on the back of the tablet. The case has snaps that are supposed to fit into...

    Found good deal on both 8" and 9.7" $369 for the 8" $459 for the 9.7"

    I saw that deal at Best Buy, but wanted to give my old tablet to my grandson. I looked at Costco online and they had it for $489, and it includes the book cover. Costco gives an extra year warranty, as well. They are asking $69 for the book cover at Best Buy. Not sure if it is the same...
