    Help Decent email client with minimal permissions?

    The stock email client on the S5 refuses to delete emails and always pulls them back down again. Is there a decent alternative that has minimal permissions? I don't need it importing information from my phone contacts, I'll deal with contacts. I just want it to sync, and if I delete emails...

    Help adding a folder on SD card to auto backup on dropbox?

    On my S5 I have dropbox, and it nicely auto uploads any images taken with the camera to dropbox, so when I power up the PC, they are pulled down to PC. I'm going to use the Sd card fitted to it to back up DSLR RAW files (so not recognised as images) to a folder on a holiday trip I'm doing, and...

    I have an S5 on 3 network (UK) It has a bunch of apps I shall never use, including the S health, S finder (whatever that is) etc. Can I safely disable them or will it start to get arsey? Is there a FAQ for UK S5s that lists all apps safe to kill?

    I like to keep a bunch of images on my phone, but arranged in folders. That worked perfectly on my Galaxy Nexus. Just got an S5, and put a test folder on the SD card, gone to gallery, and the images are there mixed in amongst the camera shots, all looking like one giant messy single folder. I...

    Help Duplicate image folders in gallery - how to tidy?

    I noticed that I now have duplicate folders in my gallery now, that have both duplicate and unique images. I think I made them by using media player to upload said folders. If I save an image on my phone, the folder browser only sees one. I also noticed when I deleted an image from one...

    Help See further in future on default calendar widget?

    I have a default calendar widget on my home screen, which shows upcoming events. Only thing is it only shows <1 week in advance. I can't see a way to change it. Can it be done? I know there are other calendars out there I could install, but it would make sense to have some control of the one...

    Help disable the swipe up launch of google now?

    One Of My Favourite 'Improvements' That Came With Jelly Bean is The swipe up that launches Google now. A brilliant feature that perfectly ruins use of dolphin in landscape mode. As I never want to use it, is there a way to permanently remove that action?

    I've been pointed over to this section as I am extremely unimpressed with the current JellyBean 'update' that I was just co-erced into installing.
