    Sprint Galaxy S8 Images not downloading in messaging app

    Sounds like Textra is a preferred option. I wasn't happy with the default app, so I'll give Textra a try and see if this issue persists. Daryl

    Can I roll back the update?

    Saving to an SD card

    I've looked in every little nook and cranny looking for the My Files, but I could not find it anywhere. However, I never looked in the Samsung folder. I don't think that I have ever looked in that folder before. I found the My Files and moved the photos that I wanted to move onto the...

    Retrieving contacts from phone

    When we first got our phones a year ago, I tried Kies,but for some reason I couldn't get it to work. I had forgotten all about Kies, so I thought that I would try again. This time it works and I am able to backup the entire phone, contacts, photos, everything all in one big step. Thanks...

    My wife dropper SG S4 on the floor last night and broke the screen and or the digitizer. When if first happened, only the top third of the screen was readable, the rest was garbage. Now, nothing is visible. The screen is black. I can see a couple of very faint creaks along the edge and the...
