    Cases compatible with the DK36 charging dock

    I bought from Amazon a Z2 and: Xperia Z2 Case, Spigen® [+Screen Film] [Non-Slip] Sony Xpe.... This provides drop protection without a screen flap. The case works. However it covers the Z2 edge at the magnetic pickup. I cut out the plastic edge to expose the magnetic pickup. Also used a wider...

    using z2 successfully without data plan

    I use my Xperia Z2 without a data plan. I'm using Consumer Cellular, and they use the ATT network. Works great. 4G, Wi/fi, etc. It is better in every way than my Sprint Samsung GS4. And far cheaper network charge. I followed Consumer Cellular instructions to setup Z2. Ray

    Something Odd

    I had a similar/same experience. Booted S4-Sprint up, listing a Samsung download about 90% complete and downloading. This continued and I investigated, since I didn't request any updates and why was this download not completing? Couldn't figure out what was downloading. Booted up again and this...

    Sharing contacts and call history with my car Bluetooth

    Sounds like the S4 is not replying to the contacts request. You need to select device OK in S4.. You can select the radio + under the Bluetooth heading. Then select media audio and/or input device.

    KNOX after S4 Update

    Where can I disable it?. Turn off Force Stop then I'll be able to install it and then disable it? That seems like a slippery slop getting me more into Knox. Ray

    KNOX after S4 Update

    Sprint, GS4, Android 4.3. I can not Force Stop or Uninstall Knox. I constantly get a security notification. Before 4.3 I never knew Knox existed. "To find KNOX-You have to go to Settings>More>Security>Device Administrators." The Knox is grayed out at this location. Ray

    Battery drain--Which apps?

    Home Screen, Menu Key, Settings, More, Battery. A list of the battery drain percentages. The top name is the largest battery drain. My list shows Screen at 52% of the battery drain. For me the Auto brightness setting is bad. Best is to set fixed brightness at as low a level as workable and...

    unwanted JB 4.3 feature

    Today Google Navigation functioned properly on a 80 mile trip despite the settings showing Home roaming only. This evening at home the Browser loaded CNN.com (the first time I used CNN since turning the phone on this AM). However the settings show no bars for WIFI, no 3g or 4G. There seems to be...

    My s4 will select when I hold my finger above an item, and I don't have this feature selected, or any other of these features. Seems the opposite problem. Ray
