Hello, I'm new to this forum. I recently purchased the Samsung Stratosphere and I'm really enjoying it so far. The manual I received with the phone was completely uselss unfortunately and I've been able to search google or these forums for most of my answers so far. I'm trying to do something...

Good morning, a colleague has a new Stratosphere and her sent mails show up fine in her sent mail folder when they are original mails created on her phone. Replies to mail in the inbox, however, do not show in the sent folder. Is this a simple setting she's missed? My HTC Droid's interface is...

Have problem reading screen in bright light. What do I change to improve this?

Even if i turn off the gps, wifi, and mobile data, my phone will still get super hot and kill the battery in a half a day. I forget exactly what I updated, but I think it was google maps, ebay, and a couple other ones. I can't seem to figure out what program is bugging out and stuck in some...

Lately, I've noticed, I'm using the default time widget on the home screen, after a few hours, the time is off. Like now, the time is 1:13pm but the widget is showing 10:06am. The last major thing I've installed was Go Launcher EX and I've noticed this happening in the last few days or so. Any...

Hi, I'm wondering if I could solicit the help of you all in making a decision. Due to limitations on the phones that are supported by my employer, I currently must choose between the Samsung Stratosphere and the Motorola Droid 4 (I can go with HTC Incredible 2 if I insist on an international...

Anyone else out there with a Stratosphere trying to run the GolfLogix app? I used GolfLogix on my old first gen Motorola Droid and it worked flawlessly. Gave me my distances to the green, hazards, etc. every single time. Since I switched to a Samsung Stratosphere, though, the app has been...

When I use the navigation app, it automatically sends me to VZNavigator. I know that I previously had another option...but it seems to have disappeared. I don't want to pay Verizon for their navigation. Any suggestions? Thanks!

When I flip the phone horizontal, it does not auto rotate. I have to open the keyboard and then it will orient correctly but as soon as the keyboard is closed, it goes back vertical. Even browser content does not display correctly. Verizon Tech support offered no real solutions. They had...

My wife's stratosphere has decided to stop saving pictures. I can not find any reason for this or option that will allow me to choose the path for saving pictures. I've searched all over the web but don't seem to see anyone else with this issue. Anybody got any help?

Hello, I have a Samsung Stratosphere. I set a password, which I somehow forgot! I've read in many tech sites that after 5 attempts I should see the "Forgot Password" button and then enter my Google credentials. That's sounds great! The problem is, I made 60 attempts but the "Forgot Password"...

I have noticed that on occasion my alarm will not go off with sound... that is, it's going off, but only vibrating. I'm not hitting any special switches, it's the sound deciding not to work. I will also at this time occasionally have issues with playing things saved on the voice recorder. I...

I am the proud new owner of a Samsung Stratosphere and I already received my contact backup data as well as linking my facebook account to my phone. A majority of the contacts I use were not restored by backup sync but I got them back by receiving the contact information from facebook. Now...

So for starters, this is NOT the famous Android "all my texts were deleted" bug. I just seem to sometimes lose *one* text, the most recent one. I have it set so I have a custom ringtone for when my boyfriend texts me. Every few weeks, I will hear the text ringtone, but when I go to look at it...

Hi: Had this phone three weeks (first smartphone). The last several days, I go to browser and get "web page not available" or to Voice Search and get "Connection problem," but wifi settings show I'm connected to (home) wifi and signal strength=excellent. The 3G/4G icon is not displayed. FWIW...

When I got my new Stratosphere, I imported all my contacts from gmail. For some reason, though, I have a whole boatload of additional contacts that only show up if I want to send a text. These include old mailing groups that I'd set up years ago, etc. How do I get rid of these contacts that only...

I am trying to figure out why when I change certain settings on my Stratosphere, they don't stay. For example, I've tried to change the screen timeout setting from 15 seconds to 1 minute. I am able to change it in settings and it will stay that way while I am using the phone, but then if I set...

Well, up until recently I was using Open Garden for my tethering needs. Now fir some reason K cannot even get it to establish a WiFi signal, let alone even attempt to try and connect my tablet to it. I know some people have complained of the standard "tethering warning" that can occasionally...
