    It's not an app update problem. I had this issue for awhile, then updated to the latest firmware with stability updates (4.4.2 Build P900UEU1ANC5) and the flickering has not reappeared.

    New to Android

    1. How much of the user interface is specific to Samsung (Galaxy Note Pro) vs. Android. If I am trying to figure out how to optimize the UI, is it an Android or Samsung question? I would say most of the user interface is Samsung. The behavior of the interface is Android. If you have a general...

    price drops?

    Comparing to the Note 10.1 2014, the price really doesn't drop by much and not worth the wait. Right now until the 22nd of March, if you order from Samsung website they will include a free official book cover for your Note Pro 64GB. That's like saving $70 off your purchase of the tablet. To put...

    New here and have a question. What is the difference between tab and tablet?

    Re: New here and have a question. Since you like the S-Pen and 12 inches, get the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 in either the 32GB or 64GB. Galaxy Tabs don't have S-Pens like the Galaxy Notes.

    Old Dog and New Tricks

    The other person I call can't hear me when I put my speakerphone on

    What multiple things have you tried? Did you try to uninstall any recent apps you may have downloaded that could affect calls or sound? Maybe a music app, or maybe even Skype. What I suggest is you uninstall Skype and try to make a call and test out your speakers. It sounds like you either have...

    Help!! Two annoying problems with my Note 3

    1. The rebooting could be caused by an app you installed that is not fully compatible. There could be a lot of factors, are you rooted or have done any mods? When did you notice the problem?

    Nothing but problems with my T-Mobile Note 3?...

    1. It's not Lookout. When you get the notification with a shield, drop down your notification bar from the top of the screen. Long press the shield icon notification until App info appears. This will let you know that it's the Knox notification app giving you that warning. It takes you to the...
