    Galaxy Note 8 questions.

    I upgraded to Galaxy Note 8 Duos short time ago from Galaxy S6 not realizing there are some drawbacks. I am running Android 8.0.0 (with Nov 1, 2018) 1. When Bluetooth is on, my device is discoverable. I do not see an option on Bluetooth Connections screen to disable 'Discoverable'. Am i missing...

    DUAL-SIM Phone

    I have been using a DUAL-SIM phone on AT&T since Galaxy S3. I am switching to Verizon Wireless and need DUAL-SIM. Which Dual-SIM phone can I get so I carry both numbers on one device? Thanks.

    Stop Receiving SMS until reboot; then each one is received at the same time.

    I have had this issue for some time now. I am unable to resolve it with a wipe, new SIM cards, or firmware update. Does anyone have the same issue? Running OS 5.0-1_0039 on SM-G900FD

    Is there an app that will sync Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and Notes?

    E-Mail accounts and signatures... I have multiple e-mail accounts (personal, work, business) on my Galaxy S4. While this is an amazing phone, it has a couple of missing features which, now, has made me consider switching devices. 1. Does HTC (or another android device) have a desktop sync...

    Double-Tap to Top makes my phone auto-scroll to the top

    With double-tap to top enabled, as I scroll down the list of e-mails, it eventually (withing seconds) scrolls back to the top. T-Mobile has replaced my phone twice and has refused to do so again. They are sure that I drop the phone and this is the result. While, I would believe me if I were in...

    Kies Sync Issues

    FireChef, If there was an issue with the cable, phone, or the USB port, wouldn't Windows have a problem when connecting the phone? Which is not the case. I run into an issue only with Kies. My I9300 and my T999 are, both, recognized by Windows as modems, MTP devices, Camera, etc. I only run...

    Kies Sync Issues

    Recently (mid-October), my firmware as updated to v4.1. When I synchronized the phone on the following day, (I usually sync at least once a week since I am a freelance consultant and my data is constantly updated) I received this error: I followed up by updating the Kies application to v2.5...

    Synchronization: OUTLOOK

    I use Kies v2. It works just fine with my Galaxy S3; except for the Notes. They do not sync with SMemo; which is quite disappointing. Other than that. It is fine.

    Synchronization: OUTLOOK

    Try the following: 1. When you setup your account (on your phone), are the desired sync options (e-mail, contacts, calendar, etc.) enabled for that account? 2. When you create an appointment, you can create for a specific profile (account) if and only if you have multiple calendars (e.g...

    Synchronization: OUTLOOK

    HAH! Finally got some time to resolve the issue. I have been messing around with this for the past couple of days (Google wasn't much help). Mine is a bit complicated since I have multiple Outlook profiles (Outlook, Business, Personal, Backup, Archive) and each is linked to a distinct PST file...

    Synchronization: OUTLOOK

    Waldo, That works. But, that defeats the purpose of Synchronizing. It would meant that I can only update my Outlook and each time, I have to export/import. Ideally, I want to update either (Outlook or Galaxy) and synchronize to update. When I sync, All the contacts from the phone are copied...

    Samsung Galaxy S III ROM

    I purchased a white Galaxy S III (SGH-i9300). But, I only get EDGE. After dealing with T-Mobile for a while, I was told that since this is not a T-Mobile phone, I can not get the throughput. Does anyone know where may I download the stock T-Mobile ROM and how to flash my phone? Thank you.

    Galaxy S3 International-No 3G or 4G on T-Mobile

    I don't see how that is relevant. The SIM was in a Blackberry Bold with 3G speeds. Now, The TM tech cut it for me. Now, it's in the s3 and can't get more than EDGE. The T-Mobile feqs are 850|1700|2100 for 4G in the US.
