    Question about Battery/Usage

    Thought I'd give you an update if you haven't fully committed to a decision. I went out of town on business for a few days, unplugged at 7a, meetings all day, happy hour until 11. These types of things are usually battery killers, in my case especially because I was in a meeting room without...

    How do I display only contacts with phone numbers on Lollipop?

    The ones that I noticed where it missed numbers after messing around is 1.) if the number is linked to a corporate directory or 2.) the number is part of their google + profile. Other than that, might just be crappy programming on my part but glad it worked for most.

    How to change visible contacts in Lollipop dialer ?

    I wrote code on the google platform to organize contacts nightly so that only ones with phone numbers end up in "My Contacts" which you can filter down to in the dialer. Full details in my post on another thread...

    How do I display only contacts with phone numbers on Lollipop?

    Re: How to display only contacts with phone number on Lollipop I'm sure many of you have moved on, and usually I'm all all about evolving and adapting new design patterns, but this one is a no go for me (Got my new S6 a few days ago and this is the one thing I can't stand). I fully acknowledge...

    Can an American Note 4 lock to Verizon with 2 years contract brought from Best Buy use in UK ?

    Re: can an American note 4 locked to Verizon with 2 years contract brought from best buy use in UK ? I think so. When I took my S4 to the UK for a few months I got a pay as you go sim card and it worked fine. The phone has to be global ready but I think they all are. There was a constant...

    Question about Battery/Usage

    Mine S6 has been off the charger since 8a today and it's now 9:32p and I'm at 50%. I usually do around the same usage as you in similar environments, though today was a little lower on the activity I think you should be fine. I also had an initial reaction to the battery/SD change but I'm...

    Issue with Google + and other Apps after 5.0

    I avoid upgrading, Verizon did a fresh install for me once (in a different situation), requires you to re-install the apps but you'll find more stability in my certainly amateur opinion.

    Disable "Today's Forecast" Notification

    When I go into the app and go to More--> Settings I can turn off weather information overall on the lock screen, will see if that works. If it does, I can go without the temperature on the lock screen, but it will be the second annoyance with the accuweather pre-install. The first being that...

    What is the Verizon Premium Store Refund Policy?

    Re: Verizon Premium Store Refund Policy Legally companies can do whatever they want unless you want to take them to court, but you would go to an arbitrator that they hire instead :-) I would call corporate and try that angle while nicely annoying the hell out of the manager.

    Galaxy S6 Appreciation

    My S6 was performing as slow as my S4, mostly that terrible glitchy feel to those terrible "mobile" web pages. Then I realized I forgot to turn off the battery saving mode :eek:

    S6 Edge owners...10 days in would you buy it again?

    I would get it again. Regarding feel in hands, I feel it's a comfort vs security thing for me. The distinct line and glass flat back makes me feel more secure in holding it (e.g. not dropping it) than any other phone with or without a case. And I don't want a case on this thing. Is the...

    Why has my Google app on my Samsung S4 stopped working?

    Re: the google app on my samsung s4 stopped working That happened to me but I was getting a new phone so didn't try to fix it, I would try to go to the application manager, turn off google app(which should uninstall updates), then re-enable and let it update again.
