    Samsung Pay

    I've had Samsung pay not work in two check outs so far. It's also worked at others. This morning at Starbucks the guy ringing me up used Samsung pay before so he was willing to try a few times. I have two cards, and neither were working, and I was getting card denied. One card is a credit card...

    Samsung Note 9 Pre Order from B&H

    Don't we have a few weeks for the headphone promo?? The Fortnite promo was never a deal with the B&H pre purchase, which is why I went for it.

    Samsung Note 9 Pre Order from B&H

    Nope, not too late. Amazon still had the same pre order bonus as B&S ...I mean B&H.

    Samsung Note 9 Pre Order from B&H

    I might just cancel it today and pick one up in a local store. ***EDIT** I canceled with them, and went to Amazon. Same preorder bonuses, and since I live in NJ I'm still taxed either way.

    Samsung Note 9 Pre Order from B&H

    Yup - just verifying that it says the same thing for my 8/10 preorder. "New Item - Coming Soon". I honestly think it's just an automatic change for the date, not really a true order status update. :(

    Samsung Note 9 Pre Order from B&H

    When I ordered the ocean blue 128 model from them on the 10th, my email said, "Your order will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis." When I check my order status on the B&H page it just says, "New Item - Coming Soon, Will begin shipping 2018-08-24" So I would expect them to START...

    Advice: Note 5 to Note 9, plus switching carriers

    I'm going on about 3 years with my Note 5, and even though I have chargers all over the place, I can't deal with the short battery life anymore. So I've pre purchased an unlocked ocean blue 128GB through B&H photo. They had (for me) the best freebies. You get the Dex pad dock, the wireless...

    How do I get into the field test mode?

    I wanted to see what band my Note 5 was using. I have a friend I work with that was complaining about his data speeds where we work at. He has the new Iphone and is on T-mobile like me. He wanted to be on band 12, but is not. He can access the field test fairly easy. He called T-mobile and...

    LED colors

    I used Light Flow years ago, but when I switched to the Moto X in 2013 I lost my LED :( I was very happy to have it back with the Note 5. After tweaking my phone to get hardly any battery drain I started adding apps, one by one. I can't have Light Flow disabled or put to sleep so I've let it...

    Fast Charging Car Charger!!!

    I bought the Samsung fast car charger a few weeks ago and it works great. $10.99 on Amazon. Item Number - EP-LN915U. I have a lot of USB phone charging cables around and I've not had any issues with them. In fact, I'm using an old Blackberry USB charging cable. It's thicker than most, but I...

    Samsung pay officially released!!

    Looking for some advice. I just set up my Note 5 with Samsung pay and a Citi Mastercard. That part went ok. I wanted to see what happens so I swipe up, "Pay with fingerprint", when I put my finger on to verify it buzzes once and I get a pop up screen. "Exception" Exception report to Samsung...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Cases

    Why is there a switch on the top of the case? That is a switch right?? EDIT Nevermind, I think it's to lock and unlock the back plate.

    Ah so it's not the wifi causing you to not get the attachment.. What file type is it?

    text messages

    A regular txt is an SMS and does not require transmission over your data plan. But if it's an 'attachment' like a photo it's a MMS, not SMS, so you have to be on data not wifi to get the attachment. Maybe this is your issue? Make sure you are not on just Wifi and have a 3g/4g signal and try...
