    Following my recent Note 3 corruption and factory reset meltdown I have become interested in backups. Specifically, I want to back up my phone's internal address book. (This is a Mac only place and has been since 1983.) [I have just about finished tediously recreating my address book.]...

    Help Screen mirroring

    Accessory lead times - Note 3

    I've been wondering about lead times for cases and for accessories on the Note 3. It took me three weeks to get any kind of temporary case for my Note 3 despite placing several orders.

    Preferred wifi getting drowned out; phone not discriminating

    The wifi on my Note three was getting flooded yesterday with too many free wifi connections in a mall (the Westfield Centre, Stratford - home of Samsung centre) and it just refused to connect to the wifi I actually wanted it to. This being my pocket camera's wifi. Tried everything including...

    UK only: Sky Go app

    This is strictly a UK & Ireland thing. The SkyGo app won't install at all from the Store. Technicians are working on a fix but at the moment you can't get it to work on the Note 3. I have had no indication as to when the problem will get fixed. You can get the app from...

    Anyone think I can change it so I no longer have to say "Hi Galaxy" which is rather embarrassing but, say, something else like "Computer!" in a strong Scottish accent?

    On the wifi network

    Is it possible to mount the Note 3 on a domestic network (via wifi) so you can move files between a computer and the phone that way? Or even print to a network printer that way?

    As a phone

    It's noticeable, the Note 3 has not got as good a phone signal receiver as my previous phones. It's dropping out of signal more readily. Addendum: It looks like I had a cellphone mast issue coinciding with the 24 hours after I got the phone. See this post below.
