Yes please. And be sure to tip your AI guy! Thank you

Even though it's grayed out, long-pressing allows options. I have changed all of those to "Silent" yet it still plays my Notification sting when it attempts to pair, and again when it pairs. Surely there's a hack somewhere to turn this off!

Thanks. My OP indicated I pretty much did Method 1 - but that 7th bullet point ("Identify the relevant category...") they are all defaulted to ON but are also grayed out...

"uh" that turns volume down for ALL notifications. Which is not what I'm asking for. And I would like to not have to remember to do an extra step every time I need to pair. (per OP, 2nd paragraph). So anyone else: Can I stop Android/BT from this specific sound.

When a new device attempts to connect to my Samsung S23 Ultra, the phone plays the stock Notification sound, even if my phone is in Do Not Disturb. I don't want to hear anything. The only way to avoid this is to remember to turn off all sounds before pairing. That's not ideal, of course. I...

I am staying in a hotel where you need to get authorized through their web interface. So when I checked in, I selected the WiFi network, the phone would get an IP address, and then ask me to launch a browser so I can punch in my room number, access code, etc. Well, while I was on the network, I...

I am presuming this is a KitKat question, and not an Edge-specific question. I have had my Note Edge for a few days. When I plug it in to charge, the LED is red; when it charges, the screen lights, it beeps, and the LED goes green. QUESTION 1 - How do I make it so it doesn't light up and...

Back on my Galaxy S - running FroYo - when I long-pressed the power button, "Turn Mobile Data On/Off" was an option. People must have liked that, because they took it away by the time I had a Note running ICS. On that, I installed the "Switch 3G On/Off" widget; it wasn't a toggle, but it took...

I have a Galaxy Note on TMo (SGH-T879). When I plug my phone into my PC's USB, the PC does not see the phone as a data device. It makes the sound on the phone that it is connected, the battery charges off the PC, it sometimes makes the sound on the PC that something is connected. All other USB...

So this may sound absurd, but I use my phone as a.... Wait for it... Phone! Sometimes, when I try to make a call, and I hit the green "Phone" button, it can take anywhere from a few seconds to nearly a minute to "launch" the diaper. And, then, it can take up to another minute between punching...

Have two issues, don't know if they're related. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy Note, running ICS. Been receiving lots of download errors when auto-updating apps... Generally all "923" errors, which appears to be a lack of space. I've purged lots of apps, cleared the cache, and I am showing I...

Been having trouble with my TMo WiFi calls dropping... Read online some suggestion that going into "Service Mode" and turning off WiFi would help. "Service Mode" - from what I've read - is accessed via dialing *#0011#. It SHOULD give me screens that look like: and then...

Just moved into a new office, and I have bugger-all control over the router and its settings. When I try to scan for WiFi on my Note, it does not see the local router. My Windows 7 laptop sees it and connects, my iPad sees it and connects. My phone has always connected to other networks as...

I apologize for incomplete information, but wondering if I have enough to get some answers. I had a TMo Galaxy Note and used a PipeLine MHL Adapter to connect to HDMI teevees. My camera went wonky, so I did a warranty replacement and got a new phone. I don't know if I ever successfully...

Is there a setting somewhere to make sure the phone doesn't go to sleep when "busy"... I keep my screen on a 15-second shutdown, as I rarely need it to stay on longer than that. EXCEPT, when I'm syncing my calendar, or documents. Typically this is in in USB Storage Mode, though not always...
