    Will I have to enter my PIN# whenever I use my Bank of American debit card on Samsung Pay?

    I'm sorry, but I probably didn't make it clear. I've tried this after several different stores. I only have one BoA debit card on my phone. If I use Samsung Pay to pay using MST(the machines doesn't have touch to pay), it ALWAYS asks me to enter my PIN#. At a couple of store including...

    crazy Japanese to attempt to put 100 screen protectors on one Note 5 next week. (already did iPhone)

    I don't know. I didn't even know they sell Note 5 in Japan. Can wait to see what happens when he put 100 screen protectors on the Note 5 next week. My guess is that it will rip the glass back cover off, just like what happened with his iPhone due to all that weight. (around 4:30 of that video)

    Using YouTube live broadcast on Note 5: How CPU intensive is it? Will the battery drain faster?

    I guess the live video has to travel from my phone to YouTube's server where it gets processed some more, then gets sent to the viewers. Guess not very useful if I'm attempting to do a live YouTube video on New Year's Eve. (the countdown will be late)

    crazy Japanese to attempt to put 100 screen protectors on one Note 5 next week. (already did iPhone)

    I cam across this video when searching for screen protectors. This crazy Japanese dude used 100 screen protector on one iPhone. 50 in the front and 50 in the back. I'd say that's very well protected. However, I just read that he will be attempting the same with the Note 5 next week. I...

    can't see screen with polarized lenses on

    I don't know if this will help the OP. I had Nikon polarized sunglass lens custom cut and put in in the frames that I picked out. I discovered a problem when I was driving my car. If I look at the 8-inch factory navigation screen in the center console, the screen appeared blank to me. The...

    how can I update my Verizon Note 5 if I'm currently outside of Verizon service area?

    how can I update my Verizon Note 5 if I'm currently outside of Verizon service area? I have two identical Verizon Note 5 and the first one was updated when I was home. I have the second one with me and it hasn't gotten the update yet because I'm currently outside of Verizon's service area...

    Using YouTube live broadcast on Note 5: How CPU intensive is it? Will the battery drain faster?

    oh, I tried and I saw. :) just couldn't believe my eyes! The battery percentage went down like a countdown timer. Ended up mounting the Note 5 on a tripod and connecting it to the charger. Don't know if it was my Verizon 4G connection, but the YouTube live broadcast always had a 7 or...

    is laser focus still working if I use a third-party camera app such as Google Camera?

    G3 forum? Is this because daylight saving time ends tonight? You know, spring forward, fall back? So... the G4 forum gets dialed back and become G3 forum? When I was a kid(maybe 6 or 7?), the high school girl(a.k.a. neighborhood bully) who lived next door tricked me about changing from...

    Will I have to enter my PIN# whenever I use my Bank of American debit card on Samsung Pay?

    That's why I'm confused. I always use fingerprint, but almost all credit card swipers ask me to enter my BoA pin#. After I enter my BoA debit card PIN# on the credit card machine, the transaction get approved almost immediately. (especially on older credit card swipers that don't have NFC...
