I'm trying to decide whether to get a wireless charger for my S7 Edge. I have looked at a few options but can't seem to find one that meets my requirements. Reviews often mention a noise when charging which, as it will be right next to my bed, is a definite no-no. Also I don't want any bright...

Hi, I am thinking of buying a S7 Edge and can't find a new one from a reputable supplier for less that £580. So I'm thinking of buying a secondhand one. Please can anyone tell me how I can tell whether it's a UK model, not an import and whether there is anything specific that I should be looking...

I factory reset my Note 3 due to battery issues. The jury's still out as to whether this fixed it but I now have another problem. I get a notification sound at random intervals - can be 3 in 30 minutes or 1 every 6 hours. There is no notification to be seen when I drag the bar down to look...

Just bought a Note 3 to replace my Note 1 and it looks great. I'm having serious battery problems with my Note and I can't pin it down to one 1 app. My plan was to build up the Note 3 from scratch, installing each app at a time to see if there was a problem. When I booted up it asked if I...

My new Galaxy Note 3 is in the post to replace my original Note so I'm looking for a case. I love the idea of the S-View case but when you take the back off and replace it with the S-view case there is no drop protection from the look of it. Is there a case with S-View functionality which...

As in title, my Galaxy Note 1 has suddenly started turning itself off at random. This started yesterday and has happened 3 or 4 times since then. The only thing that has changed is that I am in the middle of changing providers from O2 to Three so took the O2 SIM out yesterday to sort out the PAC...

I am looking to buy a Galaxy Note 3 32Gb N9005 in the UK and the best price I can see is at Expansys at

Over the last few days I have noticed that my battery is running down way more quickly than usual on my GN7000. Previously it would last the whole day. I am not a power user but do check the phone frequently and use it as calendar, surf, email etc. When I realised that it seemed to be running...

I was surprised to see an update available the other day and I updated. Still on 4.1.2. I think it started then but I now have a Talkback icon on my bar and when I drag it down it says Talkback is activated Tab to go to accessibility settings. But when I do there is no sign of Talkback in the...

I have finally bitten the bullet and wiped my Note following the instructions via the Android Recovery Console given by NeoGrandizer on the Note 2 forum. I really wanted to go from scratch so have reformatted the SD card. All went very quickly and seemingly well so I have set about rebuilding...

I use Bluetooth Wifi Unlocker to keep my Note unlocked when I'm connected to my home wifi and it's worked really well up until now. When I was out yesterday, I realised that the note was failing to lock as it normally did so I turned on the PIN screen lock under Lock Screen in Settings meaning...

I thought I had my head around the rather strange naming conventions of the Android phones with system, internal and external storage but now I'm confused again. I currently have my Note plugged in to my Laptop and that shows my SD card as having 20.1Gb free out of 29.2 Gb. But Kies is telling...

I was hoping that Jelly Bean would help with battery life but it seems to have made it worse. I have not used my phone a lot today, certainly not more than usual amd at 2.45pm it's showing 35% 7hr 11mins after unplugging. This is with the battery recommended in the thread Bloomin' Batteries...

I used to have BT permanently switched on on my Note 1. It always showed in the bar at the top but only showed up in my battery stats if I actually used it. I was very happy with that as every time I got into my car it connected automatically via BT and I could pick up phone calls. I notied...

The case on my Note 1 is looking a bit tatty. I would like to find one that replaces the back, like the Samsung original case. I have not heard good things about the original case though with people saying that it peels apart quickly. Does anyone have one and are they any good? Or does anyone...

I can't seem to trust my Note to stay silent when I need it to. I had the ringer and the notification set to zero and it rang at full volume, playing the Muppets theme tune in a very public place when it should have been silent! I had thought that it was a problem with Tasker but I'm not sure...

Waiting patiently(!) for the Jelly Bean update for the original Galaxy Note. I want to be ready when it is finally announced so I was wondering if there is anything I need to do to be prepared?

Not sure if this is a Note problem or more general Android but hoping for some help. I used to have my Note set up so that incoming Gmails would play a particular sound and texts on Go SMS would play a different sound. I don't know what I've done but now for both emails and texts I get the same...

I've been waiting for the 4.0.4 update to appear here in the UK and I got a notification of an update a couple of days ago which I assume might have been it. I left it until I was at home on wifi but when I went to download it, it had disappeared. I've left it a couple of days thinking it might...

I've bought an OTG connection kit to use with my Galaxy note and also with my iPad2. So far I've drawn a complete blank with it which is a pain as I was hoping to use it to back up my photos on holiday this week. I have tried it with both an SD card reader and a USB stick. When I connect the SD...

I listen to audiobooks when on a long journey in the car with the family. With the Desire I had, I plugged into Aux and listenened through Winamp with Desire on max volume and turning up and down on car stereo as needed. With the Note when I do this the volume just isn't loud enough. At motorway...

I am going to Orlando in 3 weeks and will be using my digital camera (Canon) to take photos and videos. I will be taking my iPad2 and backing them up to it using the Camera Connection Kit hopefully each evening. I would also like to back them up to my Note and then (belt and braces approach)...

Not sure if this is a Note thing or more general. Like most people, I guess, I like a clock widget on my home page. My widget of choice is SDS Clock so I installed it on my new Note. Over the last couple of days I have noticed that it isn't updating the clock. This happens randomly, so that...

My new Note arrived last week and I charged it, downloaded ICS and factory reset before starting to load all my apps. I had thought that if I ticked to download all my apps that what would happen but it didn't. I wasn't too disappointed as I have found that I don't need all my old apps as some...
