    new nougat update - "view all" on text messages

    I agree completely with comments about the new & improved, and required, "veiw all" step! I just can't understand how developers ever think adding MORE steps to accomplish something is an improvement! Not sure if these other gripes of mine were nougat "improvements", but they are annoying...

    Video Recording Looks Zoomed in

    Maybe I'm missing something, but on My Galaxy S7 I've turned off Video Stabilization, and I still have the "zoomed" cropped video...? (Strangely, I don't recall this "issue," or characteristic, till just recently) Thanks for any further suggestion. Paul

    S7 treats POP3 e-mail differently than S5, why is that?

    as a followup, I installed a different email app (K-9) and discovered that it worked correctly, deleting the email from the app inbox after syncing with an empty pop3 mail server. As before, I have the phone email app set to never delete mail from the server, but that is of course just my...

    My Inbox is not being cleared on S7 edge using POP3 for own email domain, why?

    as a followup, I installed a different email app (K9) and discovered that it worked correctly, deleting the email from the app inbox after syncing with an empty pop3 mail server...so I would guess the issue is not with Android 6, but rather with the Samsung email app

    S7 treats POP3 e-mail differently than S5, why is that?

    Same here...and while this annoying behavior is not the end of life as we know it, I am hoping for a solution where, when the S7 email app syncs with an empty pop3 email server, it will then empty the mail from the S7 inbox...that is still what "sync" means isn't it?

    My Inbox is not being cleared on S7 edge using POP3 for own email domain, why?

    I can tell you that regretfully so far, Samsung technical support has been completely clueless on the issue

    My Inbox is not being cleared on S7 edge using POP3 for own email domain, why?

    Re: My Inbox is not being cleared on S7 edge using POP3 for own email domain. AC have you discovered a resolution on this matter, or is it a bug to be resolved...surely it's not a new "feature" by design...thanks, Paul

    My Inbox is not being cleared on S7 edge using POP3 for own email domain, why?

    With all due respect, I don't believe that is correct. I have used my pop 3 mail account for many years with every galaxy s series phone stock email app, and it has always performed properly as described above, until the s7. It makes no sense to do otherwise. Now if with the S7 Samsung has for...

    factory reset... questiot (NOOB)

    Hi Tsukiyomi...Thanks for the great tip on screen shots before hard reset! I DON'T want to do a factory reset, but my Sprint SGS24GT has just functioned so poorly since ICS update, I really must try something. I loved this phone and have only had it a few months, but since the update, it...
