Having the same issue. They stay on persistently when the screen is off (blinking off for a second at random) and there appears to be no rhyme or reason for it to happen. Really irritating. Posted via the Android Central App

Oh my god I wish I had read this last week. I had the same issue with me PIN and had to do the factory reset. Such a pain Posted via Android Central App

S5, US, Verizon unmodified in anyway Whenever I type a word with an apostrophe (I'll, we'll, Don't etc) the regular on board keyboard corrects it to something like I'I'll we'we'll and don'don't every time. I have, when I've noticed the suggestion appear, attempted to delete these words from...

I have no experience with wireless charging so forgive my ignorance but will this work through my otterbox commuter case? I know I have to change out the battery cover to allow the contact but it would be a pain in I had to take my case off every time I needed a charge Posted via Android...

Only way I've found: From App drawer, touch the three-dot menu in upper right corner, touch GALAXY Essentials. That opens a mini version of "essential" apps. Scroll to the bottom for a more button which takes you to the store

New to the Samsung world after years of Motorola. Only thing that is bugging me is the notification situation. I have a persistent unread number floating over my email. And my Facebook notifications appear this way as well. No status bar swipe down click able notification like i'm used to...

Really excited for this device!!

OK I'll check it out. Nothing I'm doing should be able to pull it down this much. I'm not a power user; reading, web browsing, etc. And while it's charging, that should way overpower anything I can throw at. Edit to add: Year old. Bought it at release Posted via Android Central App

I am having serious charging/power issues. My N7 will go from 100% down to 0 in about 12 hours. When I plug it in (using OEM charger/cable) it takes about 8-10 hours to charge up. It used to be much, MUCH faster Worse though, when I use it while plugged in it will discharge at a rather rapid...

I'm trying to decide if rooting is my best bet. I have a Droid Razr MAXX that is laggy/sluggish and is a general pain to use. It's never been modified in any way and I'm thinking that maybe rooting and putting a stock 4.2/4.3 ROM would fix some problems. Am I missing the mark here?

Such a cool device, I would love to have one

Works after the update for me. It now work by setting up a VPN and requires you to activate a pattern lock on your phone (for some reason). It also, for me at least, activated the Verizon hotspot icon and still "checks subscription status" when activating. I'll be watching my bill closely

And what does the line " Make sure you have Smart Actions fully installed, unfrozen and unmodified" Mean exactly? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Android Central Forums

I just want to root to use the hotspot feature (no ROMs at least yet). I've read your OP and it's great but I'm on JB now so I'm trying to use the other link you posted. Thing is, there's no instructions. At least that I can find. In either thread. So now I'm even more nervous about this whole...

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that I wanted to root JUST FOR THE PURPOSE OF WIFI TETHER. I looked in the rooting forum and I feel a little more educated but I don't want to really DO a lot to my phone. I like it, and when I get JB I'm sure I'll continue to. I just want that touch of extra...
