    Edge lighting

    I posted another thread about this, but I hate how the edge lighting setting can't apply to screen off only. I want to see edge lighting while my phone is on my desk and the screen is off. I don't like seeing edge lighting as I'm using my phone and texts are coming through...

    Best S21 cases. Which one(s) are you getting?

    I just got this case from Amazon and it's the perfect slimness/form/grip that I want. I don't really want a super bulky case as I'm pretty careful with my phone. The only thing is that I'm really wanting a clear case to show off the white back. Has anybody found an ultra slim clear or frosted...

    S20+ to S21+ - Can you even tell you have a new phone?

    With trade-in deals so good, I've been getting a new Galaxy every year since the S7e. I also just transfer via Smart Switch and use the same Nova layout year after year. The experience is pretty similar so it doesn't feel game-changing new, but I always appreciate the zippiness and pep that a...

    Edge Lighting Only When Screen Off?

    I actually want the opposite effect of that slider. I want it to show ONLY while screen is off. The way this is set up, I get the edge flashing for notifications even while I am using the phone which I don't really like. Flashing only while the screen is off would be preferred.

    Edge Lighting Only When Screen Off?

    I've had a few of the past Galaxy devices so I'm familiar with the Edge Lighting feature. For my S21, I can't seem to find a way to only have the edge lighting work when the screen is off. I think it's rather annoying to see the edge lighting as I'm using the phone, but would still like to...

    Backup Restore Smart Switch Question

    I like to load the SIM in the new phone prior to running Smart Switch in case I receive any texts during the whole process (which usually takes about an hour), which would still end up being in the new phone conversation threads. Since this is the first Galaxy without an SD Card, I was also...

    Simultaneous Wireless + Wired Charging

    The best and most convenient place to put my phone in my car is on the wireless charging pad, but since Android Auto isn't wireless, I still plug my phone in with a cable. I've noticed that when it's on the pad, it's indicating wireless charging, even though I'm assuming the cable would provide...

    Best S21 cases. Which one(s) are you getting?

    Is anybody using a clear case? I'm starting off with the clear Spigen case, and I'm noticing in some circumstances, light is reflecting in causing some halo effect on the lens. There was also an instance where the lighting made the "clean lens" notification show up. I made sure the lens was...

    Package Stolen and Samsung Not Refunding!

    Well after a few more rounds of talking to different Samsung representatives, I was able to get them to approve my refund. For background, here's the photo indicating the requirements for a sufficient police report: I kept insisting that nowhere on this list does it explicitly state that an...

    Package Stolen and Samsung Not Refunding!

    Going through my credit card would probably be confusing since my trade-in was associated with my order and I was only charged ~$200. Once I fail to trade in my S20+ in 2 weeks, I will be charged the additional $725. I'm sure Chase would have even more questions on why I'm disputing a 2nd...

    Package Stolen and Samsung Not Refunding!

    FedEx is not taking responsibility because Samsung set up shipping without requiring signature so release authorization was given to leave the package (even though it's not smart to leave a package outside of an apartment building on a busy street in an urban city).

    Package Stolen and Samsung Not Refunding!

    The police report has a unique incident report number that is easily verifiable through the police department, including the approved officer declaration. If I were to generate a fake police report in Word, I could easily drop in a city emblem as well so I don't understand how a photo of an...

    Package Stolen and Samsung Not Refunding!

    Apparently since my Samsung.com order included the trade in, the value of the order did not exceed $500 and no signature was required upon delivery. FedEx was so brilliant as to leave the package outside of my apartment building even though there's a sign in front of our building that clearly...

    What Messaging App are you using?

    Download an app called Glimpse Notifications. You can specify any app or notification to wake the screen for edge lighting purposes.
