I need a calendar on my phone (Samsung Galaxy S6, Android version 6.0.1) that will sync with my Google calendar. It used to do it but suddenly refuses.......! I have a Samsung Galaxy S Tab that syncs just fine, but has an older Android version, so I have to think it must be something with the...

Can someone please tell me if Android 6 is available for my Galaxy Tab S 10.5? My phone (Samsung Galaxy S6) just updated and I thought that because they're both Samsung Galaxy XXX that they would both update at the same time. So are tablets so different? Just curious, more than salivating for...

On my S4, I was able to get both ringing AND vibrating at the same time for incoming calls. On my new S6, however, it seems that it's either/or. I can find no way to select both. Am I missing something?

My tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 : SM-T800) won't turn on. Yesterday I noticed a significant lag time from typing to pressing any buttons to it actually doing anything. Then today it won't even turn on. When I plug in the charger there is no response either. I assume there is a one-year...

Well, it's still sending the text-to-speech messages to my home landline. When I listen to the message, it's just a string of never-ending numbers the voice reads off. Very weird! I'm going to have to try a factory reset, I suppose, as soon as I find out how to do that. One good thing, the...

Thanks. It's not rooted and I really have nothing on here that can't be blown away. It's an OLD phone. Before I try the reset, however, I'm attempting one more update.It's about halfway through it now. Fingers crossed this will work. If not, I'm just sticking to the old firmware.

I unlocked my old Galaxy S2, put a new SIM card (3 Network) in it, and charged it up. I also updated the software but don't think that's the problem as it started before the update. Anyway, now when I turn it on, it continually sends text-to-speech messages to my home phone number. I can't stop...

I'm soon to travel to the US. Currently I have a Galaxy S4 on Tesco pay monthly contract. I also have my old Galaxy S2, unlocked, on no plan right now. I had planned to buy a pay-as-you-go SIM for my S2 at TMobile once I arrive there, and use that while I'm there. That would give me a local...

I'm sure I saw a setting that would blank the screen as soon as I close the cover on my Samsung Galaxy S4. Now I can't find it, however..... does anyone know? Thanks.

Is there a way on the Samsung Galaxy S4 to silence the sound that plays when I power on the phone? I've tried turning the volume way down, but it only affects the ringtones, etc. Thanks.

I've connected before with this phone, but now have a new computer and new download of Samsung Kies. I get the error message that no device is connected. I can't find any setting on the phone that would seem to affect connections via Kies. Samsung Galaxy S4, Windows 8.1, Android 4.4.2 Can...

When I take a photo with my Galaxy S4, sometimes the picture ends up in a sub-folder called "Camera" and sometimes in "My Photos" and now I seem to have TWO "Camera" sub-folders, all of which show up when I access the "Gallery" app. This happens even when I'm taking several photos in a row...

Is there some way to stop my apps (on my Asus Transformer Pad, TF300T) from updating automatically without going into EACH one, one at a time? I would like to have a setting that says apps cannot update automatically. Thanks.

I have tried to find text messages (not email, just phone text messages) that I have sent, but without success. On my old phone I had an "outbox" but can't find anything like it on the S4. Is this possible? I've downloaded the user guide PDF but can find nothing about it there either. Please...

My Galaxy S4 is supposed to scroll when I tilt my head.... at least I think so. I'm sure it did at least once, but now it won't do it. I checked the Settings > My Device > Smart scroll and it is "On", as are the Smart pause and Smart stay. The Smart rotation is off. When I drill further, the...
