    Best Buy trade in?

    Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but this is my first upgrade not at a Verizon Wireless store...... can I pick up my S8+ and take it home to activate, etc or does it need to be done in store? My wife and I are both upgrading and it would be so much easier if I can get both so she...

    Best Buy trade in?

    Hi. Rookie question...... I was thinking of pre ordering Verizon S8+ via Best Buy but can't seem to figure out how to process a trade in (Note 4). Will Best Buy do trade ins? Thank you in advance.

    Gear S2 Backup

    Hi. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to backup my Gear S2 Classic so that the file isn't locally on my phone!! I had to reload Samsung Gear Manager, which deleted the backup of the S2 so I could not restore my settings when Gear re established connection with the watch because it...

    Verizon Gear S2 Classic

    I searched and couldn't find any reasons..... does anyone have the reason why Verizon Wireless allowed pre-order so long ago yet not shipping until 04/01? Looking for legitimate reason not the normal "Big Red is always the last". =D

    Updated Apps Being Removed From Their Folders

    I too have found this to be happening but noticed that it seems to be the Amazon Apps that it is happening on a consistent basis. Google Play seems to be ok for me

    Samsung Galaxy S4 keeps restarting!!

    Hi, My wife's S4 started doing this and I found that when Google Play Books tried to update itself, that's when the restarting would kick in. I turned off the auto update and have not had any restart issues. I manually updated Google Play Books and the download was fine but when it started to...

    Problems with Nova Launcher

    I am frustrated as well with this app...App works great until you actually try to customize folders and move icons into it - freezes, restarts on its own and you lose all settings you had... I don't think requiring me to do a back up after each icon move so that I can restore my last setting is...

    Comcast/Xfinity promo

    You may want to give them a call back.... I just spoke to a rep and their system indicates that the Galaxy S4 will be shipped on the 30th - it may be something as simple that their system hasn't been updated but that is a pretty big update that the reps are not getting.
