    Samsung Good Lock is awesome.

    I've been using Good Lock for a couple days and I've never been more impressed of a Samsung software product. It's a partial overhaul of the system UI and brings it very close to stock android in the notification tray. The level of customization is high and updates are promised bi-monthly...

    S6 is broken after Marshmallow update today (advice needed)

    Rough. Sounds like you have exhausted all the options I would try. A hard reset would most likely fix it, and is a better option than a refurb. Is your phone rooted perchance?

    Galaxy S6 Restarts randomly throughout the day

    Interesting theory. I've noticed the same issue with my T-Mo variant over the recent weeks. It probably reboots once a day now. I am going to test your idea and report back.

    Outlook App on Galaxy S6?

    I don't have the search option either. Pretty major omission for such a popular app.

    Case - Yes. Screen Protector - on the fence (help)

    I haven't used a screen protector in 5 years. I specifically look for cases with a generous lip to avoid any contact with flat surfaces and have yet to have a problem. I vote no.

    If I buy an S6 from Cricket, will it work for AT&T?

    Shouldn't be a problem unless they lock it. I know ATT phones work moving to cricket without any problem. Only concerns you may have are updates for the phone if they are supplied by cricket. I'm not sure if they sell a cricket branded phone, or just the international version. You may want...

    Verizon Galaxy S6: Instagram hogging battery life?

    I noticed it was hogging my battery too. I switched to their web app via shortcut and it solved my problem. Works just as well as the full app. You do miss out on notifications if that's important to you.

    Galaxy S6 doesn't say "fast charging"

    Mine only showed fast charge 1/4 times. I switched USB cables and ditched the samsung one. Haven't had an issue since. Try another usb cable.

    Galaxy S6 Battery Life Thread

    Re: My own Galaxy S6 Battery Test FWIW: I removed all apps from the disabled list in Package Disabler and got an additional 20-30mins. I had about 180 or so disabled. Now I have turned it back on and just used the recommend disabled setting for bloatware. We'll see how it goes over the next...

    Delete Facebook and FB Messenger Apps.

    I concur. I have my hopes high for the Marshmallow update to solve the RAM and battery concerns. Here's hoping doze can make a difference.

    Delete Facebook and FB Messenger Apps.

    I just disabled Facebook and Instagram and replaced them with the webapp. So far battery life has seen a small boost. Had to keep messenger though for the push notifications.

    How to delay finger print screen?

    Secure Lock is your answer. You can set when the device locks based on the following criteria; time, location, connected device, voice, and physical movement. I use 'On-body detection' myself. It will only lock the device after being placed in a pocket or if it remains somewhat stationary for...

    impressed with battery life

    That's impressive. Do you have all the samsung bloatware disabled? I get half of your SOT. I wonder if it's because of location and sync or the fact you have the international variant. It would be great to see a battery comparison of all the S6 variants using the same software settings...
