Hi Rukbat, Yes, I do know Android is Linux ‘based’ but with the caveat that Android is thoroughly invaded by Google and my carrier Verizon and the device manufacturer Samsung. Android is a far cry from the Linux flavors of yesteryear. Linux came clean back-in-the-day. That being said I’m not...

Just looking for the best "no root needed" firewall. Was steered to NoRoot Firewall, but the last update was in 2014. Then NetGaurd/mobiwol, but... I don’t mind paying. Like the idea of blocking/allowing by port, protocol and ip. I used to build my own firewalls that way back about 20 years ago...

Hah ! You’re welcome, Tim. Feel free to copy/paste. Gets a smile pretty much every time.

Thank you soooo much, Joel. Even though I have a couple gmail addies, I like eliminating all things Google: Google Drive, Google Photos, etc. Bit of a Privacy buff here. Even quit using Google Search. Though I gotta admit, Google Scholar is great for reasearch papers and such. Thanks again...

Will it hurt any functionality of my MS Outlook (or anything else, for that matter) if I Force Stop/Disable the Gmail app? Gmail works fine on iOS when Gmail app is uninstalled. There’s no loss of functionality for gmail addies in other apps. Thanks - Alan (Retired Happy-Dog)

I always use my right rear pocket on snug jeans and remove my phone before I sit. When I'm sitting, I simply want immediate access to it anyways. When I'm standing the back pocket DOES provide immediate access. Caveat: I occasionally get in my car and forget to remove the phone as part of my...

After the final Note7 recall I got the S7 edge and am very satisfied. Peace. Alan Galaxy S7Edge [MM6.0.1] Full Dresser Lumia ICON [Win10M 14977.1000] Sportster Even when I lose, I win.

They charge MORE ($100 or so) because they know they're more convenient, fast, next day. But the convenience only kicks in if they have YOUR screen in stock. If they DON'T have it in stock, go with the Samsung. Peace. Alan Galaxy S7Edge [MM6.0.1] Full Dresser Lumia ICON [Win10M 14965.1001]...
