    Robin's Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Thread

    Re: best cell phone service provider Verizon's prices are high and I dislike their policies for locking down phones, but when I'm on a road trip, camping or backpacking, my phone (Verizon) is the last one to lose signal. With any luck, even mine losses signal by the time I get to the campsite...

    problems after recent update 9-23-2014

    So, you've checked the Haptic Feedback box and you've also set the Vibration Intensity for Haptic Feedback? If both of those are set, have you tried changing the settings and saving the changes? After one upgrade, I had a situation where a setting was showing an unchecked box, but I had to...

    Galaxy Note 10.1: screen shattered in "soft" drop

    That's a darned shame. If you're carpet were actually diamonds, you probably wouldn't worry about buying a new screen. Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

    how do I disable S Finder opening when reading study material ?

    I really, really, really hate that Samsung designed this tablet with fixed buttons in the bezel. I'll probably be rooting soon enough in order to find a solution to both this and the Kit Kat issue with writing to SD. However, I've found that this case works really well if you aren't concerned...

    Screen was vibrate when touch

    Have you looked at Settings -> Device -> Sound -> Haptic Feedback? If that setting has a checkmark, try un-checking it. Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

    Dell bluetooth mouse

    I'm sure the mouse will work. I've had no problems connecting BlueTooth keyboards or mice to this tablet or various other tablets and phones, as long as the BT on the tablet isn't flaky. Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

    Which navigation software to use on the tablet with no data connection?

    I don't know how good Co-Pilot is for searching by name, but it seems to do a good job of navigation and identifying points of interest. Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

    E-Mail problem/issue

    Have you tried K9 Mail? It has POP settings that let you specify whether to remove messages locally when they are deleted on the server, and whether or not to delete messages from the server when you delete them locally. I only have one account that is POP, and I don't use it much but I do see...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems

    Re: Samsung galaxy note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems Thanks, but unless I missed something, these accessibility settings seem to be set per application. I didn't see an option to simply disable the hardware buttons by default. I believe the screen even has a message stating that buttons...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems

    Re: Samsung galaxy note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems I was really hoping to avoid the hassle of sending it in... figured maybe I'd wait for the next update and see if it fixes the BT issue. <sigh> Since I'd also really like to root, so that I can switch from the hardware buttons to...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems

    Re: Samsung galaxy note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems I've been using a Motorola BT keyboard for a good couple of years and it's worked flawlessly on every other device, including my current GS3 phone. It worked so well that I got one for my wife, who has also never had a problem with it...
