Can I charge a s-6 with a s-5 Samsung charger cord?

Go to the Google play store. Tap mic... say 1 weather app for android...look for a blue icon with a white cloud in it. Download it. It will show a background of what the current conditions are, sunny, rain, cloudy, etc. If you don't like it just uninstall it.

Thanks for the feed back. I will change to the 9.1. Have plenty of room for storage.

I have a s-7 with Verizon Nougat update. In the camera settings there are several formats to choose picture size. I want to shoot in the 16.9 format... There are two options. 16.9 (3.7M) 2560x1440 and 16.9 (9.1M) 4032x2268. The last one has a higher resolution. QUESTION is does it crop the photo...

I have Verizon, still have that option too! I have the same setting options Wellons mentioned. Maybe it is a carrier issue if you have a different one.

Go into > settings> wifi> tap the three dots in upper right corner> select> advanced. Look for hotspot option, make sure it is toggled on. If off, turn it on.

Might be a carrier issue! I have Verizon & mine is working...not sure, just a guess.

Re: uninstall latest samsung software update WOW! I see all of these negative post about Nougat. Maybe some of the problems are carrier based. I have Verizon, everything went fine with the update... I am 74 yrs old & love the new OS. A lot of your issues can be fixed in the settings. I...

Forgot 3rd option... Go to settings> battery> tap the 3 does in upper right corner> tap advanced settings> make sure "app power monitor" is toggled on. That is where you will find the 'fast charging' option too. It is hidden here now, does not show in settings with Nougat.

In settings go to> display> screen resolution> I think it defaults to WQHD 2560x1440... change it to FHD. 1920x1080...WQHD will use more battery & you don't need it that high... you will get a amazing display in FHD.. NEXT, go to settings> performance mode> make sure it is set to "optimized" not...

I have verizon... Go to settings> Lockscreen & security> tap notifications on lookscreen> tap content on lockscreen> select show content... You can then select which apps you want notifications from & turn off ones you don't want. SIDE NOTE... If you turn on the "always on display" feature that...

I don't have this problem... I don't use Samsung messaging app... I am Verizon & use message+... maybe you could use a different app if you can't fix the problem.

Best way to understand the Nougat update on the S-7 is ...Go on YouTube & watch some tutorial' s. There are tons of them...bookmark the ones you like so you can watch over if needed. I have all my settings the way I like them with Nougat. You will see several important things you need to change...

I am Verizon, but this may work for you. To get the brightness slider on the first swipe...swipe down with 2 fingers to show all icons... on the bottom where you see the brightness slider> TAP THE LITTLE CHECK MARK to the right>...select> show brightness control above the notification panel...

Probably not! On the s-8 there is a separate button on the side of the phone to activate it...thats what I am hearing.
