Samsung GS7edge - Verizon Users Thread

[Jeffery Turnage]

Has anyone else noticed that the option to disable the app drawer doesn't seem to be available

It appears the S2 is back in stock. I've refreshed a few times:

I probably should've waited until my S7E gets here and I claimed mine before I told the world.

Turn off Airwave or whatever it's called in settings. That's what makes the screen so sensitive. Nobody seems to realize this.

What setting is this? I can't find it.

I think is easy mode under settings.

I'm having trouble locating this too. I've noticed I don't have to touch the screen sometimes for it to register that I touched it. I just have to get my finger close to the screen.

Nope. It's just radio bloatware. I've never used it. Hell I haven't listened to local radio since MP3 on CD-R support for aftermarket CD players came out back in the early 2000s.

Is it real radio or a radio app via Internet. I kind of liked the radio app on my Droid X. Major negative was the antenna was the wires on the earbuds forcing their use.

Anybody else have a very hard time finding screen protectors for this thing?

I have used nothing but Xtreme Guard since I was using a Stellar. Haven't received the one for the S7 yet, I order them from Ebay, but I have no reason to believe it won't be exemplary.

I normally don't like linking to Wiki, but they get the Ant+ description correct here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANT+

So it's not over the air radio but just another catchy name for a wireless protocol like wifi and bluetooth.

I do like the palm swipe across screen to do a screen capture!

I'm also seeing notifications about my SD card at random times. Saw a comment the ebay case sale posting that this may be an issue for many S7 and S7Edge devices.

I have that on my S3 so it's been out a while.

 

[Jeffery Turnage]

yea, I actually already tried that easy mode setting but that isn't quite it either. are there at lest any launchers that let you make that kind of change to the ui

Honestly, I'd just go to the Verizon store. I bought mine there and they put it on for free. BB keeps running out, and charges extra for putting them on.

i just received this screen protector from Verizon. For less than $10 with employee discount it wasn't such a big loss if it was a fluke like the Skinomi I bought. The Verizon screen protector was very easy to install, with 3 separate back plastic covers to make it easier to align and place on the screen. All bubbles came out pretty easy. The cover itself is very thin and barely visible. Contoured to the edges no problem and did not come up when I put the Spigen crystal case around it. The Skinomi pulled up right at the edges as soon as I put the phone in the case even after leaving it on to dry over night. The Verizon one feels just like the screen not rubbery like the Skinomi. It also comes with 3 covers as opposed to only one from Skinomi.

What brand is it? Not sure if all stores will carry the same item.

I'll admit, I don't know about it at all. Would you mind expanding?

Unfortunately, I don't have my phone yet. I was given this info by an Engineer at the Samsung Experience store in Manhattan. I assumed the setting would be in Settings>Display>somethingsomething

Gotcha. I'm looking around in those settings on my Verizon Edge and don't see anything like that, unfortunately.
