    S7 Edge File System

    Hi Gang, Just got my S7 and want to understand the file system much like I understand where things are located on my PC and why. I'm not interested in rooting my phone before I even understand how it works. Where do I go or what book should I look for to understand how things are organized? I'd...

    S7 Edge problems

    I have had Verizon forever & never had an issue with dropped calls. I have had my edge for a week & it drops about 50% of calls. A second issue is that during texts it sometimes looks like the person I'm texting had sent a picture from my gallery, but they didn't. If it's a group text, no one...

    Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge bootloader

    I really could use a rooted phone because there are some apps that don't work (i.e. UDP port scanners). At least OpenVPN works properly on the S7 (but not on the S5). Anyway, some networking tools won't work without root access. Those network tools would help with site administration - otherwise...

    Ever since March 11th, I've had the screen freeze on me about 2-4 times a day. I would have to either push the home button or turn the on/off button to get it to work again. Finally today, the lock screen photo disappeared and the home screen pull-down to get to the settings etc and and wouldn't...

    S7 Edge, Always on Display Not Moving

    I have noticed today, that the always on display, that usually wanders around the screen when the phone is idle or in doze mode, has stopped wandering. It has always moved, as it should, to prevent burn in on the screen. Cache cleared, re booted, still sits there, a non mover. Any ideas as...

    Any S7 screen protectors which go to the edges?

    I have just returned the 4th one to Amazon... Both the glass and the plastic types stop about 4mm short of the edge of the screen. It looks really tacky, especially with the glass ones which are thick. For the S7 Edge there seem to exist glass ones which have curved L and R edges, but not for...

    Has anyone else noticed a lag when swiping to open the edge screen? I have only had this the last couple of days and it is worse when the phone is first started from its 'sleep' mode. Thinking about it I think the lag started after I put lots of apps into folders on the edge screen. Still...
