    Gmail notification in status bar not dismissing

    Hope someone can help with this...On my old S5, after I opened an unread Gmail message, the Gmail notification icon in the status bar would automatically dismiss. On the S7, the Gmail icon notification remains after reading the email(s). The only way to dismiss the notification on the status bar...

    Always on Touch Light Duration Setting

    Loving my Verizon S7 so far, but I was not happy that I couldn't find a setting (as on the S5) to keep the touch light soft buttons lit when using the phone. Thankfully, there is a small, free app to do this, since Samsung omitted this feature on the S7. Designed for the S6, but works fine on...

    Help Can't get rid of Verizon Visual VM after 4.4.4

    So, after the 4.4.4 Verizon update, I'm getting constant messages in the status bar to update Verizon Visual VoiceMail. I go to app and clear Visual Voice Mail data and cache, and after a while, it reappears in the status bar again. Naturally, in Verizon's infinite wisdom, the app can't be...

    Help "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped working"

    New S5 (Verizon). Everything works well, except when launching the stock camera app, I get "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped working". I've cleared the camera cache and data, reboot, and still the same message. I've installed Camera Zoom FX, which I prefer anyway, and the camera works as...

    Help Vibration Observation

    i may be crazy on this, but today I noticed that when typing, with key vibrate enabled, the vibration was very weak. Vibration duration was set to 102 in advanced keyboard settings. When I got home, I plugged the phone into the charger, and shortly thereafter, answered a text. The key...

    Test drove the EVO today at Best Buy

    I went to BB today to get a new case for my Incredible, and asked the BB Mobile salesman if they had a mockup of the EVO. He said "no, but we do have a working EVO, if you want to check it out" He handed me the EVO, and I spent about half an hour playing with it. The EVO feels very solid in...

    EWallet Users

    The only thing that I missed on my iPhone, was Ewallet. I didn't think that they were going to write an Android version, so I tried some of the other apps available in the Market. Really did not like any of them. Today, I found that there is an EWallet viewer available in the Market. It...

    Help Gmail not pushing

    Anyone else finding that Gmail is not pushing mail to the phone? Mine stopped last night. Got up this morning, and mailbox was empty. I hit refresh, and it downloaded 11 emails. I'm using the stock gmail app., which up until last night, was working fine.

    Fedex just dropped mine off

    Just opened the box, and I can confirm that there is a SanDisk 2gb card included. I'm charging it up before I activate, but here are some initial observations: Thinner and lighter than I expected. Charging port is on the side, which I don't like as much as the Eris', which is on the bottom...

    Why is "Maps" using 88% of Battery ?

    Running the most recent 2.1 leak, and battery life is great, but: when I check to see what is using the battery, this is what it reports: Maps 88% Cell standby 3% Bluetooth 3% Phone Idle 3% Voice Calls 3% I never use maps, so I assume it is always running for system purposes.

    Phone My PC

    Just downloaded Phonemypc app from the market. Pretty nice app. It actually works better than logmein did on my old iPhone 3Gs. The best, is after the $9.95 charge for the app, there is no monthly fee. Very handy if you need to access anything on your desktop.
