Is there a way to have the Always On automatically rotate for the position of the phone? Would be a nice feature, I always dock it horizontally in my car.

Is it harmful to leave the phone on the fast charging stand after it's been fully charged? I really like the Samsung fast charge stand and would like to use it as a desk stand at work. Will it harm the phone or battery life if it sits on the stand for several hours a day? Thanks.

A strange development today. I have a PIN number set up on my phone for security. Usually, when I slide open the lock screen, the the next screen shows "Enter PIN to unlock" . Today, the keypad flashes on and off quickly, but does not display long enough to enter the PIN. I have tried...

I am surprised there is not more discussion on the Tab 3 8.0. I could not be happier. My prior tablets were Nook Color rooted, Galaxy Tab 1 10.1 and Nexus 7 16gb. I really liked my N7 until it got laggy as the memory started to fill. I ordered the Tab 3 8.0 in large part for the expandable...

After 7 months of near flawless performance, my exchange services (corporate email) is no longer working and giving an error "Exchange Services has Stopped". I have done soft resets, powered down and on, deleted the email account and added (which I can no longer do as a result of Exchange...

I don't see anywhere to enter owner information in the DNA settings. I would like it to show up on my lock screen. Is the feature hidden somewhere or MIA? I thought that was available on my older Android phones from Verizon, and also on my Nexus 7 with Android OS 4.2.1. Cannot find it on the...

Why is the Maps App using power when the app is not being used? While not a big thing, I am curious why and whether I need to do anything about it. I checked my battery use this afternoon after being off the charger over 7 hours and found it at 70%. About 78% of the usage was for the Screen...

I would like to use one reader (Mantano Reader) for all my ePub books from various sources, but can't find the books that came with my N7. I assume the Google reader books are ePub. Thanks.

It is time to say goodby to my NC and this forum (selling it on eBay). Thanks for all the collaboration and support over the last few years. One last request, when I deregister my device, will that wipe all data files? My NC is unrooted, I want to retain the latest software version for...
