    Samsung Galaxy Watch Titanium

    I think this isn't out yet. It looks really nice. I'm curious about the sleep monitoring function. Who actually wears their watch to bed? I don't understand this feature.

    Notification issues

    Initially, I thought I was having a problem with the Twitter app. I try to set the notification sound to silent but it never saves. Then I noticed the same problem with Facebook. I turned off sounds but they still work. Has anyone noticed this with their phone? I think I'm going to do a...

    Help Car dock mode

    I bought a car dock recently and when I put my S3 into it I did not get what I expected. There are no shortcuts for navigation/maps. It just looks like a normal start screen with a couple tweaks. Am I missing a setting? Thanks.

    Location based settings?

    Does the S3 have anything to change settings based on location? I.e. When I get to work put the phone on vibrate. I used to have a Motorola Droid Razr Maxx and it has SmartActions. Or is there an app that can do that? Thanks.

    Add events to calendar

    I get appointment reminders by email with an .ics attachment. Gmail online recognizes an event in the message and prompts me to add it to my calendar. Is there any way to do that on my phone? All I can seem to do is download or open the attachment. Opening the attachment shows the event but...

    Help Slow screen response on Razr Maxx

    I recently did a FDR but I am once again having delayed screen responses. I try to scroll through a twitter feed or a website and I either get a system error that the app isn't responding and do I want to wait, report or close or in Chrome it frequently thinks I'm trying to select text and goes...

    Google Voice not showing contact's name

    I got a text this morning and didn't realize it was via my GV number at first. It showed it coming from a 202 number but showed a 240 number preceding each text. I guess I should've realized that was GV, but that's not the problem. I had no idea who it was and when I found out I thought maybe...

    Help Can't share Google Places (Local)

    I am trying to share a place in Google Local/Places. This used to work. Now whenever I try I get a message that "This feature is not currently available. Please retry later." It appears this is the only app that is having a problem. Thanks.

    What should screen protector cover?

    Should a screen protector just cover the area of the display or should it cover the "buttons" too? I'm finally going to use the ones that came with my phone after getting a replacement recently. My original Maxx had some scratches on the display. This particular screen protector has a...

    Help Dialing delay

    My MAXX has started to exhibit the same problems I was having with my old Droid X. This particular problem is a dialing delay. I'll tap a number to dial and nothing will happen so I'll try again. Eventually, both calls go through at once (or as many times as I've tried) and there is an option...

    Help "Meeting" SmartAction

    Is anyone using the "meeting" SmartAction? The trigger is for when "I'm busy" but calendar events where I've indicated I'm "available" are still triggering it. For example, I had an event set up to block out time for the HVAC guy coming to the house this morning. That's something that I want...

    Google Voice Plus?

    I used to have an app that was supposed to let you specify which contact groups would use your Google Voice number and which would use the regular mobile number. I think it was called Google Voice Plus. I can't find it anymore. Did Google shut it down? I'd like to find something with this...

    Help Corrupt videos

    I took some videos last weekend that turned out fine that day. Now several videos are corrupt. Any way to repair them? Any clues as to what keeps happening? Thanks.

    Help Slide to vibrate goes to silent instead

    For a little while now when I used the slide to vibrate function on the lock screen it would go to silent instead. I don't know why, but just now I turned "silent" on and off in the volume settings and all of a sudden the slide function is switching to vibrate again. Any idea why that happened?

    Help Delayed dialing

    I have frequently been having a problem where the first press of the number won't dial immediately. I'll press it again and all of a sudden I've got two calls going. Last night I received a call after the first call didn't go through. In the middle of that call (maybe a minute later) it dialed...
