    Screen Turns Off During Calls

    I tried this and it doesn't help. I'm using the phone with a bluetooth headset and the screen turns off every time. Turning off Double Tap to Wake doesn't help, adjusting the display timeout doesn't help, turning on Smart Stay and staring at the phone and blinking doesn't help... nothing. It...

    Why does a 'unable to attach file' appear when I try to attach a photo to a text on my Samsung S6?

    After a reboot I'm now able to attach photos to new messages. This is odd, because I had rebooted only a couple hours prior to noticing the problem. My old attachments are still missing, however. Not a big loss, but kind of annoying.

    Why does a 'unable to attach file' appear when I try to attach a photo to a text on my Samsung S6?

    I just started having this problem too and came here looking for an answer. I'm using the default messaging and gallery apps, the photo is 4.81MB, mobile data and wi-fi are both on. Since it just started, I'd expect a software update to have caused it, but I'm not aware of either of those apps...

    Direction Lock - New way to unlock your phone (Hidden feature on the Galaxy S6)

    I had my Galaxy S6 protected with a fingerprint lock and also encrypted, requiring a password every time it was turned on. I changed the fingerprint lock to a direction lock and the next time I rebooted it, it didn't prompt me for the password, but rather for a pattern. I have NEVER enabled a...

    Free Samsung galaxy s3 flip cover if you act now!

    Use NFC Tag Launcher. You can set a number of the settings as toggles, so you wouldn't need a second tag, you'd just have to use the same tag twice. It doesn't work on things like volume settings, only things that can be toggled on and off, like WiFi.

    Free Samsung galaxy s3 flip cover if you act now!

    If anyone wants a blue case, let me know. I'm not secure enough in my masculinity to put that thing on my phone. I'm considering dipping it in black dye.

    Work around for my biggest S3 gripe

    Some of you people, I swear. He's talking about a phone, he's not insulting your children. Here's a guy who has a gripe, confirms that it's shared by multiple people, finds a solution and shares it freely. This is the behavior we want on a forum. If you don't have this problem, move along. I...

    Flight application to add flights to my calendar

    I also used FlightView on webOS and have switched to using TripIt, but I'm able to see the events on my calendar. I like TripIt better because I can see all of my trip events, not just the flights. Are you able to see your events when you look at Google Calendar on the web? That's the first...

    Touchstone Mod for the S3

    I feel like it doesn't charge as fast as a wired connection too, but it might be a watched pot situation. I've never tried to measure it. It's possible it's just not getting quite as solid a connection, but I'm not sure. I use it to trickle charge at my desk and on my bedside table, and it works...

    Tectile App

    I don't know why, but you can download NFC Task Launcher. It has a setting for car dock.

    Youtube app issue "Connection to sever lost"

    This happened to me. 3G worked and other wifi networks worked, but not my home wifi. I "forgot" my home network and then reconnected to it and it started working again.
