I've seen different 18650 cells with varying mAh ratings. It's my understanding that they sacrifice the number of charging cycles, and/or output, for higher capacity. I don't know the actual physics of how this works, but it seems logical. So I suspect this is a similar situation. As for...

My Note 4 needs a new battery (only lasting about 4 hours off the charger even just on standby). While searching for a new battery, I came across a 5470mAh Extended Slim NFC Battery which claims to be the same size as the OEM battery, and is being sold under several different brand names. Anyone...

As I said, I've done it before with the same cable, and it worked fine. The cable also works fine with my Note 4, so it's not the cable. I suspect that a driver on my tablet has somehow become corrupted, but I'm not sure how to fix this other than doing a factory reset (which I really would...

I've used USB OTG before without issue, although it's been a few months. Today I tried to load some movies onto my tablet from my laptop for a flight in the morning, and it won't connect. Tried rebooting, different ports, etc. It shows it's charging, but that's all, no connection either on the...

You're right... and I just checked Verizon's website, which confirms a 1 year warranty on manufacturing defects. I'm going to have to have a talk with Verizon. At the time I just wasn't thinking because I needed my phone again ASAP (I can't work without it). :(

I went to Verizon, tried everything I already did, as well as putting a new battery in it. No luck. They said it looks like the power button failed. Unfortunately since I bought it when they first came out, it's not under warranty anymore. They let me sign up for their protection plan though...

Last update I recall was a while ago. Was there a new one recently?

My phone locked up today, and I had to pull the battery out, but now it won't turn on. The battery is fully charged, if I plug it in, it shows the charging animation. Tried holding the power button for over 30 seconds, tried holding power, volume up, and home, both nothing. Not rooted, running...

I have the 32gb version with a 64gb micro sd card in it. I've had no issues running out of space. I currently have 16 movies (most in 1080p, but a couple are only 720p) loaded on my micro sd card, and still have 24gb free. I also use a sd card reader with a micro usb connection for showing...

That fixed it for me, I don't know why I didn't think of that. Thanks.

If you plan on watching movies on it, then the Tab S is the clear choice. Better screen, and better format (16:9) for movies. I use mine primarily for watching movies at work when it's slow, and displaying my photographs (my second job is as a photographer). So for me there was really no other...

Anyone else having issues with the Gallery after updating to Lollipop? It just says "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped." every time I tap on it. Tried restarting, but it still doesn't work.

I got the 32gb version at Best Buy on sale for $350... and I had $260 in reward zone gift certificates. Also picked up a 64gb Samsung micro sd card for it that someone had mispriced as $16.99.:cool: They put them on sale for $100 off every 3-4 months, I suggest waiting until then. Best Buy has...
