    Syncing Dropbox with Gallery on Note 5

    I'm hoping someone here can prove me horribly wrong, but the Gallery on the Note 5 no longer has a settings option to allow syncing to drop box. I could deal without an SD card but I take a lot of photos and keep them on Dropbox. On every other Samsung phone I've looked at since I discovered...

    A way to keep the lock screen on longer?

    Is there a way to keep the lock screen on longer? It seems to turn off within about 5 seconds sometimes, though at other times it may stay on for maybe 15 seconds. Sometimes, I turn it on, but before I can swipe or fingerprint the device, the screen is already off again.

    Google music app

    So Pandora, Spotify, and Audible are all open in notification bar and I can drag it down and skip a track. And even from the lock screen I can skip tracks and pause. For some reason. Google music doesn't do any of theses things for me on my Note 5. That's where I've stored all my music over...

    Samsung Changes available Colors for Note 5

    I had recently ordered a new Note 5 in the silver color. Yesterday I received a phone call to inform me my new Note 5 was in. Much to my dismay, I was told the silver was recently changed by Samsung to Silver Platinum, which looks basically like the old black color, only shinier. Why Samsung...

    I got my note 5 today and one of the things that sold me on it was the off screen writing. Is there some sort of trick to it? I made sure it was turned on in the s pen settings but no matter what I do it will not write on the off screen.

    Do wireless charges really need to be unplugged after use?

    Just got a Samsung wireless charger and the directions say when you remove your charged phone you should unplug the charger. My question is why should it be unplugged? Does it hurt any thing to leave it plugged in?

    On Screen Buttons

    I've moved from a OnePlus One to a Note 5 just over 3 weeks ago. The change is somewhat uncomfortable. Not only because of Touchwizz, but, well for me, i find the lack of on screen buttons slows the flow of the thumb movement. 'Assistant Menu' does help a bit, but there is also a few seconds of...

    What are your "charging habits"?

    So I'm loving my Note 5. <3 I leave home at 7:00 with the phone on, and arrive home at 17:00. The phone is at around 75% when I get home, and I pretty much don't use it anymore until the next day since I'm home. Should I charge it, or leave it at 75% and try to go another day? Does this damage...

    Recent app platform change

    Recently I got an email or I read an article about a company shutting down its windows version to concentrate on just android and ios. Anyone remember who that would have been? I can't find the source now. Thanks.

    Otterbox Defender Review

    I've been rocking a UAG case since I got the phone and I like it a lot and would highly recommend it. I like trying different cases, I've tried several and were disappointed (Spigen, Ghostek and a few others). The only thing I was concerned with the UAG was front drop protection. I use my phone...
