    Cannot change ringtone

    I had the dreaded 'Media Server' battery drain over the last few days so reformatted my SD card and then copied over the files again to the card. Now I cannot change the ringtone. When I try I get an option to choose the app to locate a music file on the SD card which it does, but the...

    Fingerprint sensor

    Is it just me or is the fingerprint sensor on the s7 edge rubbish. It does not matter what I do, 70% of the time it will not recognise my fingerprint and I have to put a pin code in. I have deleted the stored fingerprints countless times and started again to no avail, wiped the sensor, kept my...

    S7 Edge has started freezing.

    Yesterday and again this morning my S7 Edge has completely frozen on the 'Always On' display. Each time I have had to reboot it by holding in the power and volume button. I have not added any new apps or made any changes in the last few weeks. Any ideas anyone please?

    Always On Disappearing

    I have noticed over the last week or so that sometimes my screen is totally blank instead of showing Always On. When woken up and put to sleep the Always On comes back no problem. I would say this is happening once a day. I think Always On had an update recently and it may have started since...

    Fingerprint unlocking not working.

    I wonder if anyone can help with a problem I am having. Whenever I try to unlock my phone using my fingerprint I get the message "Enter PIN instead of using fingerprint recognition because of security policy" and I have to enter my pin. Driving me nuts.

    Apps have moved back to Internal Storage

    Last week I went through all my apps and moved the ones I could to my SD card. Today most of them are back on Internal Storage. Very strange. Anyone else come across this?

    Message App

    I am using the message app that is bundled with the phone. Is it me or is the functionality of this app reduced? For instance, I cannot work out a way to 'Lock' a text and there is no mention of it in the manual. Is this the same as an old 'secure' message? I was a bit annoyed that all my...

    People edge handle

    I have had my S7 Edge for 2 weeks now and for the first time today the People Edge handle showed up when I got a text from someone on my people edge. I have not changed any settings but never got a notification before and not since. I have checked that notifications for the app is allowed, and...

    Lag on the edge screen.

    Has anyone else noticed a lag when swiping to open the edge screen? I have only had this the last couple of days and it is worse when the phone is first started from its 'sleep' mode. Thinking about it I think the lag started after I put lots of apps into folders on the edge screen. Still...

    User manual in foreign language

    Alarm Cancel

    Not sure if I am doing something wrong on my S7 Edge, but if I set an alarm and then decide to cancel it the 'cancel' press withing the alarm settings just minimises the alarm screen again without actually cancelling it. Does this feature work on anyone else's phone please?

    Wallpaper does not scroll since Jellybean

    Since my One X updated to Jellybean the wallpaper no longer scrolls. Is this a known fault or is it just me?

    Volume levels

    I am experiencing an annoying glitch with my OneX which is spoiling an otherwise excellent phone. The volume levels, particularly the ringtone volume, keeps turning itself down. I check the levels a few times a day as I have missed so many calls because the phone has turned itself down so...
