    S7 Ringtones and Notifications missing in action - And Why

    Many thanks for this; I had no idea why when I went to select a new ringtone, I wasn't offered a list but had to browse my file system. Just to note this seems to happen with _all_ file managers; I installed ES File Manager, then checked I could select ringtones as normal. When I then installed...

    Missing "Alarm Tones" dialog & tones

    I finally figured out why this was the case - I had installed a file manager (in my case, ES File Explorer, but this happens with all file managers I think); the first time I went to change my ringtones, the system will offer you to the choice of either the file manager _or_ another options...

    Where is /data/user/0...?

    I have an app Retroarch which writes to a series of directories under /data/user/0/com.retroarch.. Can anyone tell me the full pathname of this directory, as I cannot find it (am using ES File Explorer to access my phone's file system). Or is it only a directory that a phone with root access can...

    Missing "Alarm Tones" dialog & tones

    Can anyone who bought an S7 here tell me if their phone has the "Alarm Tone" dialog as normal? Say, if you change the alarm tone (or indeed other tones such as notifications, etc) you see a dialog box like the following...

    "*@gmail.com" calender vs "My Calender"?

    Thanks. For some reason that is the default calendar being used which is obviously annoying. Is there a way to delete it or specify that all new events should belong to my Google calendar? EDIT 1: Even if I hide that calendar, any new events I create belong to it (which therefore can't be seen...

    S7 and Google Messenger instead of Messages?

    S7 and Google Messenger instead of Messages I find the stock Messages app on the S7 to be pretty poor. Despite turning every notification setting to on, I'm still missing text messages as they don't appear on my screen. I installed Goggle Messenger. However, when I go to configure it, I get...
