    Bought my first Smart Watch: Galaxy Gear LIVE

    What stores did I check? BJ's Price Club (only had the Gear 2 and Neo), Walmart (only had the Gear Fit) and Target (only had Gear Fit) Found it at Best Buy, but it wasn't even on the display table (the Gear 2 and Neo were) and two salesmen never even heard of it. Oh...went to AT&T as well...

    Bought my first Smart Watch: Galaxy Gear LIVE

    Penguwin, Thank you for the clarification. I really thought that the Galaxy Gear 2 and Neo 2 were the newer watches considering that one, no stores carry the LIVE anymore and that Samsung abandoned the Android Wear platform. Samsung is really pushing Tizen which I am convinced is the wrong...

    Bought my first Smart Watch: Galaxy Gear LIVE

    Spent yesterday morning going to 4 different stores across the county looking for the Samsung Galaxy Live. Seems that though this smart watch was released only two months ago, most stores don't carry it anymore and most of the clerks I talked to never even heard of it. Reason being, Samsung...

    Android Wear or Tizen? Help decide between Galaxy Live and Gear 2

    You know, it's amazing how difficult it is to decide on an Android Smart Watch now that it has split into two separate platforms. Clearly, the Gear 2 is a more advanced watch, with longer battery life. However, it runs Tizen which prohibits the use of Google Now, the most appealing factor of...

    How do I enable "Okay Google" voice command system wide?

    So odd... Those options were not there the first time, but magically, after going to the reference page, the settings were there. Works perfectly. Thanks.

    How do I enable "Okay Google" voice command system wide?

    Yeah, at the moment, it only allows you to search from the app (only option available) I suppose the original reply stands that it is being enabled in stages. This grasshopper will have to wait a bit longer. Thanks for the reply.

    How do I enable "Okay Google" voice command system wide?

    I have the Galaxy Note 3, AT&T version 4.4.2 I don't think 4.4.3 has reached us yet. In any event, I thought there was a Google Search update coming that would allow users to say "Okay Google" from any screen to do a search. Just got a Google Search update this morning, but it doesn't seem to...

    Is it true? Charging issues with Android 4.3?

    My brother owns an LG G2. After his phone recently automatically upgraded to Android 4.3, he calls me to say that his official plug-in-the-wall charger is no longer charging his phone. I told him that's impossible --- especially since he didn't buy some second hand charging kit. ...but then I...

    AT&T KitKat Update has ruined my Note 3. Can I go back to Jellybean?

    ?? Could be related to just one piece of software since update, but uncertain.

    All Note 3 4.4 KitKat owners report in here.

    As far as tethering is concerned, it has nothing to do with the router. I am not having problems with WiFi connectivity. You could very well be right about the fact that Notification Weather has not been updated for KitKat I would be willing to do a factory reset -- it will be a pain in the...

    All Note 3 4.4 KitKat owners report in here.

    One application in particular, Notification Weather, won't even detect where I am when setting it up with GPS. Never had that problem previously. No unlimited data plan. I pay for 4GB tethering each month (for business use). It will connect, then disconnect. I have to reconnect several...

    All Note 3 4.4 KitKat owners report in here.

    Another Note 3 on the AT&T network. Since the KitKat update... * Getting worse battery life * GPS not working on some software applications * Tethering (which I pay for) connection is unstable Is AT&T planning to issue a fix?

    AT&T KitKat Update has ruined my Note 3. Can I go back to Jellybean?

    Ever since the update more than a week ago... * Battery life is atrocious. * GPS not working properly on some software * Tethering not keeping active I figure I could do a factory reset and go back to the version of Jellybean that came initially with the phone when it was released a year...
