Hi, I am a recent transfer from an iPhone and on it I had a app that took your audiobook disks one at a time and converted the files to iPhone type files and you could listen to a book and stop then start from where you left off. I have been trying to do this with my S8 and cannot get it to...

After checking around to make sure Samsung Galaxy S8 can be rooted on Pie, I bought a model SM-G950U phone, but discovered to my dismay that the bootloader on U.S. versions with Snapdragon processors is not unlockable (there is no "OEM unlocking" setting in Developer Options, and none of the...

Hi everyone, last night two of my devices (Samsung Galaxy S8 and an S9) during the night have completely reset with a hard reset losing all that was on it. I wonder if this anomaly is an android bug? I think it's a serious thing that a device resets itself without user intervention. Is there an...

Speck's Presidio case is essentially the more minimal version of their Presidio Grip case. That's to say the case features only the hard outer shell, minus the rubber ridges of the Grip. This makes it slightly more slippery, but there's plenty of protection the case offers. The inner frame of...

I have to admit, I was super impressed with the Caseology Legion case for the Galaxy S8 and S8+ Plus. It's more of a heavy duty case, but doesn't feel as bulky as say an Otterbox or other rugged cases. It was more or less the attention to detail of the Legion case that wowed me. It's...
