    Galaxy S7 Unresponsive

    How do you unscramble eggs? So...woke up to my GS7 unresponsive. Only thing seemingly active was the notifications blue light in the upper left hand corner. Without getting into too much detail, at this point I haven't a clue... After reading this, that, the other, and trying one, two...

    Root So, now what?

    Just moved to the S4 an decided to root my S2 just for fun and because I haven't before rooted anything. I don't get it! Looks, feels, and acts exactly the same so what am I missing? What can I now do with it that doesn't take too much tech knowledge? I was hoping that perhaps now that I...

    Help System sounds and such...

    Have a Sammy SG4. Any way to change the system sounds on the device? I guess "system sounds" is the best way to put it. If I hit any icon or navigate through any application, I heat the water drop sound - and it's getting so annoying! Any way to change that outside of turing it off in...

    Help Picture + text as a video multimedia slideshow annoyance!

    This happens on both Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch and GSIII on Sprint: Just until about a month or two ago, every time I'd send a picture along with a text or a text along with a picture, it'd be sent as just that, a picture with a text. Now every time I go to send a picture with a text along...

    Help So slow...

    Not exaclty sure when it started. Maybe it was when my phone upgraded to ICS. It at least started after that, which was a while ago. My phone is just so slow. Thought I'd clean out my phone to free up memory and the like but that hasn't really helped. Haven't changed any of my settings. It's...

    Text messages...

    Rockin' a BB Torch 9850 on Sprint. Just bought a Nexus 7 tablet. I rely on texts that come to my BB number in many instances and was wondering if there was any way to get my texts to not only appear on my phone but also on the tablet? When I'm working on the tablet, it'd be great if I could get...

    Screen repair...

    Without getting into too much backstory here, there was my Samsung Galaxy S II, a drunken friend, and a cigar. For reals! Apparently got to close to the screen and, well, sizzle. Functionality is still intact, but now there's this annoying mark in the center of the screen that won't go away...

    Help Offloading my files...

    Actually posted this question before. The answer worked then but not anymore. At first I plugged in my phone to my computer via USB and couldn't see any files in the listed folders for my phone. Then someone said to do the USB Debugging option then plug in to the computer via USB so I could see...

    Which route to take?

    If someone on an Android device hits up a streaming audio player which is HTML5/Flash fallback and whose audio is being served up via Shoutcast, which way does Android go? Does it use the HTML5 or the Flash fallback?

    Which is best?

    Which is best on Android, Shoutcast or Icecast? In my findings, Shoutcast has its problems with Android (or is that Android with Shoutcast), wonder if Icecast is any better?

    Compatability?

    Okay, the main beef is Shoucast not working on Android. Starting a "webcasting station" with Shoutcast beaming out the goodness. Android not likey Shoutcast or Shoutcast not likey Android?! Using an audio player that's HTML5 with Flash fallback. Blackberry and iOS devices are all cool with the...

    Help Won't stream audio from website...

    So I hit up an online music source, web-radio or the other myriad things it's being called these days, and hit play on the site's player. Notta. the player says it's buffering and then counts up as if it's playing, but no audio. If I hit the site with a BlackBerry or even, God forbid, as iOS...

    Help Need to unload my goodness...

    My phone is apparently bursting at the seems with pictures, videos, and applications. I can't even take another picture/video or even update applications because there's no more room. Thought, as with every other phone I have, I should plug 'er in via USB and let the spice flow to my computer...

    Where's my wallpaper?!

    Tis a sad day. Just completed whatever update my SGS2E4GT needed to do and lo-and-behold when it rebooted, my 'Inside The Nexus' (or whatever it was called) live wallpaper is gone, obliterated, nixed from my phone. I like that wallpaper goshdangburnit! Oh where or where and how can I get it...

    Help Where the hell's my WiFi?!

    Sooo...all of the sudden I have no signal from my wireless router. I have a Samsung Epic 4G Touch on Sprint. For example, I'll attempt to access the Android Market, Amazon App Store, or whatever with my WiFi engaged and I won't be able to access it. Says, "no connection" and times me out. Then...
