    Optimising photography

    What's the best way to utilise the camera on the note 3, whether it be with camera apps, or tripods. I've not really used my camera much, even though I've had the phone since release, but having a look through the settings, there is a lot that could make good photos great.

    Adding smiley changes a text into an mms

    Just noticed that when I added a smiley face into my text using the smiley button that my text changed into an mms. My monthly plan doesn't include mms messages so does any one know how to stop this whilst still having the ability to use smileys?

    NFC tags

    Who has tried them? Which ones are good? I don't really want to buy the Samsung Tectiles, as they are more expensive than other brands, and you get less for your money. Was looking at these ones.. [url=http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00DRDZ08E/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=computers]Kamor

    Help Battery life and charging habits

    Had my note 3 just over a month, and am finding the battery life very disappointing. I charge it before going to sleep, unplugging it around midnight. It's always 100% when unplugged and when I wake up at 6:30, it's dropped to around 80-85%. Whilst in the shower I stick it back on charge and...

    Turned my tablet on after it decharged, plugged it into my computer to back up my photos etc, only to find that all my photos and videos on the tablet and memory card are gone!

    Bluetooth keyboard...

    I'm looking for a bluetooth keyboard, but every one that I have seen says they aren't compatible with Android phones. I am looking for one that is pocket sized, but also need one that is easy to press one button at a time, rather than mashing several buttons at once ( I have big hands). I...

    missing apps after switching cards

    So, after switching from a 16GB micro sd card to a 32GB one, I'm missing a lot of apps. I copied everything from my 16GB one to my computer, then copied it to my 32GB one. Now a lot of my apps (I'm assuming the ones that were on my 16GB card) have a greyed out Droid with sd on it. When I...

    Root Rooting my note

    What are the advantages of rooting my note? I have no problems with the phone at all, so was wondering if there was any point in me rooting it? I've never rooted any of my phones before.

    controller and data transfer.

    I've got the galaxy note, and would like to be able to control my a500 with it, not sure if it's possible. I've searched the market for an app, but can't seem to find one. Both phone and tab aren't rooted. Also looking for a simple app to transfer files from my phone to tab and vice versa. The...

    underwhelmed

    So, ever since I read about the Note away back in September, I was dying for one. Finally got my hands on one a few weeks ago, and I've got to say, I'm very disappointed in it. I installed a task killer/optimiser app on it, and with nothing but the default apps and services running, the...

    wireless desksets

    Has anyone used a wireless desk set i.e. a miuse and keyboard connected via the same receiver. I've tried two, a trust and Logitech set, and neither worked. I've got a wireless mouse which works with no problem.

    photography and the acer...

    Does anyone know if the tablet would be good for looking at photos taken from a 16mp bridge camera? I recently ordered a camera with the hope of taking it up as a hobby. I just want to know beforehand if the tab is good for viewing pictures taken from an external camera, to check for picture...

    Does anyone know why the wifi bar has different colours? Normally when connected it foes blue, the same clpolour as the battery icon. However, every so often it goes a light blue/grey colour. It is still connected to the wifi though.
