    Question Android Email client that can manage spam filtering from device?

    Hi All. I have the free mail app Blue Mail. It's 'fine' but not fine in that it takes 10-15 seconds for an email to open after clicking on it. I'm looking for a new app to use that isn't laggy and can also allow me to manage rules for my outlook.com personal email account on the device. Blue...

    5G connection drops every day (not my wi-fi)

    Hi All - For some odd reason, every day now between 12-2PM my 5G carrier (Verizon) internet connection drops on my S22+. If I turn it off, then back on the connection is restored. But once that didn't work and I had to do a restart to get it back. I just can't figure out what the hell is...

    Restored text messages too many times - many duplicates

    The app backed up the original message db on the phone, to my google one drive account. What if I uninstall the app, delete the local message db (which I know where it is on the phone), then reinstall the app and try to restore the original db backed up before I bricked the phone?

    Restored text messages too many times - many duplicates

    Hi Guys - My Verizon Galaxy S7 got bricked last week. Verizon sent me a new one. Before it was bricked, I backed everything up. For my text messages, I used the app 'SMS Backup & Restore.' Well I couldn't tell if it was working, so I tried 3 times. Then to realize every conversation/thread...

    What does 'Like New' mean for Verizon replacement S7?

    Bricked my phone over the weekend and Verizon sent me, what they call, 'Like new and fully verified' galaxy s7 replacement device. This is fine but my only concern is about the battery. Is it a brand new battery in the device? Or has it most likely been charged multiple times by the original...

    Pathetic S7 Vibration

    Thanks man. It feels about the same after changing it. But we shall see. GOD I HATE THIS DAMN PHONE!!! Remember boys and girls, just because it's 'new and shiny' doesn't mean its better.

    How to suspend alarms going off?

    Thanks for the suggestions, but none of these options exist. Any other thoughts? Download perhaps an app for this?

    How to suspend alarms going off?

    Got the Verizon S7. I have all my alarms to go off in the morning. But lets say I need to go to work early, early in the AM and I don't wan't any of the alarms to go off. Is it possible to disable/suspend them for a set amount of time WITHOUT unchecking every single individual alarm in the...

    Have to unlock S7 screen twice! GURR!

    I tried the fingerprint scanner. It's pretty much useless. A million times more aggravating than the above issue. Oh well, if I want to keep the S7 (I can still go back to my S5 until the end of this week), then I'll just have to get use to this major annoyance :-(

    Have to unlock S7 screen twice! GURR!

    I think I'll give up on this. I researched a lot of this online. It sounds like this is a Android O/S 6 function designed to prevent pocket dialing of Emergency Calls. That's why you need to double swipe. I don't think there is any way to get around it....unless....anyone knows of a an App...

    Have to unlock S7 screen twice! GURR!

    I'm trying to achieve the exact opposite of what you're saying. Please read my original post. Just a friendly suggestion.

    Have to unlock S7 screen twice! GURR!

    I just got the Verizon Galaxy S7 phone. The only thing (so far, gulp) driving me crazy is the screen unlock process. I created a swipe pattern. However when it is locked, to get in, I have to swipe FIRST to the right, then draw the unlock pattern. Doesn’t make any sense to do this twice. I...
