    Do I need a samsung account / galaxy apps?

    I love my note 3, but for the most part hate samsung software. I've disabled as much samsung apps as I could and only use a few spen apps (action memo, snote). However, reading an article today on androidcentral about the note ( 4 The first 5 things to do with your new Galaxy Note 4 | Android...

    Moving large files to note 3, a couple of questions

    Thanks for the info. According to wikipedia fat32 max file size is 4gb. It let me move the whole 9gb file and shows up as 9gb on the phone so I'm assuming it's using exfat, but I'd like to confirm. I tried right clicking while in windows but it doesn't give you the normal information you would...

    Moving large files to note 3, a couple of questions

    I recently put a sandisk ultra 64GB sdxc memory card in my note 3 to put large files (movies) on. Since this is my first phone with a micro sd reader I have a few questions I haven't been able to find answers to by searching the net. 1) Is there a way to tell what format the card is in? I...

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    Just thought I'd give an update. It appears to be a bug with samsungs nearby devices service. If you have a plex media server running on your local network and UPNP enabled in your router, whenever you open gallery it starts trying to sync with Plex. I'm not sure what it's trying to sync as I...

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    Thanks again for all of the info. I tried everything you said, and checked the content to display but it was only set to content in device. Do you also have the gn3 on t-mobile (I'm guessing you do)? I'm just wondering what your memory / ram usage typically shows. Mine seems really high...

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    If I go to app info it says nf4 at the end version 4.4.2 It's frustrating because one time I use it it's super slow ( like really really slow ) and if I open it a minute later its fine. I tried to follow your instructions but I can't turn off gallery app...no option to do it. Also, how would...

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    I actually just tried gallery again and its still running like crap. I have about 11 photos in the camera folder and scrolling through the pictures is extremely laggy. I may have uninstalled an update for it when I was stopping apps... Any idea on how I might refresh or reinstall the app?

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    I'll give it a try now that I've disabled the sync. I actually prefer the photos app and was just wondering if it was possible to have the camera app use it. My moto x let me do this. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    As an aside, and sorry if I shouldn't post this question under same topic, why does the "sync picasa web albums" even show up under my google account sync settings? I only ask because I'm coming from a moto x, which also had the gallery app but doesn't have the picasa option in the sync settings.

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    OK, I'll give it a shot. Will it ask me to chose which one I want to use from the camera?

    Use Photos app from camera, NOT GALLERY

    Just picked up a note 3 and love it, accept for whatever reason the gallery apps runs terrible on it. It locks up, crashes, runs slow, and caused issues because it tries to sync picasa web albums (I use google plus photos, seems like it was starting to cause duplicates). Anyways, I like...
