    Need a good text app

    I am drowning in political texts. I've blocked numbers and used "stop" to unsubscribe. I've deleted. There are always more messages - and it's getting worse. Is there a good texting app that will block numbers not in my address book? I read about one putting them all in a separate folder. I...

    For my old Samsung tablet, I had a USB adapter. It allowed me to plug an SD card reader into the tablet. I could use that to transfer my photos from my camera's SC card to the tablet while traveling. It allowed me to organize and edit my photos as I went from place to place without carrying a...

    Help Volume problem on S7

    I'm having a problem with my volume going way down for almost anything on the phone. The alarm won't sound loud enough to hear it, and I can't hear the directions on the GPS.

    Any Advantages to Getting the ATT version over Int'l unlocked phone?

    I'm just wondering if anyone knows of any advantages of getting the ATT version of the phone over the international version that's unlocked. Will they both perform the same on the ATT network?
