    Note 8 Rumors--Cancelled!

    http://bgr.com/2016/10/19/galaxy-note-8-rumors-cancelled/ IF this is true, and Samsung has bailed on me, then I'm seriously going to look at "bailing" on them! I supported them BEFORE the SGN7 debacle, DURING the SGN7 debacle, and even AFTER the SGN7. Now this? Time will tell, but I'm going...

    http://m.reviewjournal.com/life/technology/galaxy-note-7-recall-will-cost-samsung-least-53b All I really want to know is if they will continue with the Note series or not! If so, I can wait with my SGN3. If not, then don't keep me hang'n so I can move on!

    Help Deleted Folder Keep Coming Back

    I have scoured the internet and some folks have had this issue, but no one seems to have a "fix". I created a folder on the phone some time ago. I later moved it to the SD card and tried to delete the phone copy. It is a folder with about 28 documents in it. After checking around later, I...

    Help Wifi Password Help

    About a week ago, my wifi setting for a particular wifi that I regularly use stopped remembering the password. Now I have to type in the password EVERY TIME I want to access the Internet via wifi. Previously (and with all of my other regular log in locations), it was all automatic when ever I...

    Help Save Email Location

    Greetings. I'm STILL enjoying my SGN3. I recently cleaned out my phone to save some space. As you might guess, the phone faster now. During the clean out, I found that I had a lot of "saved emails" that I would like to keep on the phone. The problem is that they take up a lot of space on the...

    Help Lock Screen Show Time

    When ever I lock my screen (or it times out into the lock mode), it has a nice feature whereas I can see that I have messages, emails, etc at the bottom of the notification block window (without unlocking the screen). However, it flashes so fast, that it is difficult to actually see the...

    Help Text To Speech

    I have scoured the internet and searched here, but I can't find out how to stop the announcement options of my texts. When I receive a text, it reads aloud "TEXT FROM XXXX, LISTEN NOW?", and then it gives me an option to select yes or no. Here is what I have tried so far: 1. Deleting...

    Help Locked Screen Display

    Every now and then when I lock my screen, after a few minutes, this (see attached pic) will flash on my screen for a few seconds and then disappear. After doing this about 2 or 3 times, it goes away completely for a long time. I have not noticed this before the update. Any ideas as to what it...

    Help Camera Shutter Open Time

    I saw a similarly titled thread but it wasn't what I was looking for. I'm looking for a way to take a picture (without root...just using the stock camera on the SGN3) and have the shutter time adjusted so that I can take awesome night sky pictures. Last night the Northern Lights were really...

    Help Samsung Terms & Conditions

    For some reason, Samsung OFTEN asks me to "agree or disagree" with their Terms and Conditions. The problem is that to accept it, it is all written English BUT when I click on them to see what it is that Samsung wants me to agree to, it is written in Dutch! Any ideas how to change this so it...

    Help How can I get my N3 to ask me if I want to remember my password

    Previously I answered no to this question. Now I want my N3 to ask me if I want it to remember my password for a specific site. I know that I can get it to remove all passwords, but is it possible to change the setting on individual Web pages (not apps)? If not, can anyone recommend a...

    Google Ads

    Some of you may have noticed, but I just found it. Google targets our Note 3 (not sure about other phones) phones with ads based on apps. It even has an advertising ID but I'm not sure how to turn it off completely. You can "Reset advertising ID" to generate a new one, but I just don't see...

    Help Mobile Hotspot on Verizon?

    On the Verizon version, it is under: SETTINGS MORE SETTINGS MOBILE HOTSPOT ...having said that, mine is greyed out. Maybe I need to have it out of Wi-Fi mode, but I'm out of the country right now. Is this setting working for anyone else on Verizon?

    Help Terms of agreement popup

    I am getting a daily Samsung "terms of agreement" popup lately. I have been accepting them in hopes that it would eventually go away, but it won't. Is anyone else seeing this? If so, what was done to stop this?

    Help Unlink Phone Numbers

    When I look at my contacts list, can see links between Device and Google. I like the Google Directory on my contact list so I selected it and started to remove the link (chain icon) option of Device. However, since I have over 400 contacts listed, I need to find a faster way to "unlink" them...

    Help Bionic Bookmarks Program

    Does anyone know of a bookmark program that will allow me to transfer/copy my stock browser bookmarks over to the Chrome browser? I didn't want to use the Chrome sync to get open tabs from my desktop (more reasons than I care to go into). I just need something that will simply allow me to...

    Help Quick Text

    On a phone previous to the Bionic, I had the ability to ignore calls. If I selected "ignore", I would get a popup asking me if I wanted to send a preset text message to the calling party. Does the Bionic have that capability when ignoring a call?

    Help Saved File Default Location

    If it's been talked about here, I can't find it! Pre-ICS, my saved email files/attachments saved in a default location of MESSAGES. Now Post-ICS, it is saved under DOWNLOADS. Is there a way to change the default email saved file location?

    Help Groups On Bionic Homepage

    Is it possible to take the existing "groups" that were made before ICS and put them on the homepages? I have tried but I have been unsuccessful in moving the groups from (apps) where they are now to one of the home pages. I know that I can start all over and stack them, but I'd like to find...

    Help Refurb Bionic Need Back Up Program

    I am getting a refurb Bionic (they still have them) due to data drops and a few other issues. Apparently the rumor about Verizon being out of Bionics and replacing them with other phones is untrue. This will be my third Bionic. I would like to be able to have a painless re installation...

    Help SMS Time Stamp

    Can anyone recommend an app that will help my Bionic to display the time (my time) stamp that a text was sent/received from someone else? My problem is that I'm out of the country a lot and I have my phone off. When I get back, I turn on my phone and I get a lot of texts with information that...

    Help Edit Email Addresses In Bionic

    Is there a way to edit email addresses in the Bionic? For example, when I first put roadrunner (ISP) on my Bionic, it seemed to know where to get my email addresses from. Now I have some that show email address only and some that show names and email addresses. I'd like to attach names to it...

    I am using Handscent and Go SMS Pro in addition to the standard text program that came with my bionic. For some reason lately, I can't to get an attachment to go through (video or picture). It runs, and runs, and runs but it never seems to go through. At other times, it goes through (video)...

    Help Where Are The Passwords?

    Does anyone know where the passwords are stored in the Bionic? I was searching for it because I had forgotten one on my laptop but I know that I had it saved in my browser in my Bionic. I eventually figured out the password but it would have been nice to have just located it in a...

    Help Boot Up Options

    When holding down the power button (Bionic) and volume up/down buttons all at the same time for a few seconds, several boot options come up on the screen. Does anyone have a list of definitions of what each option does? I know that one of them is supposed to provide the same results of...
