    S7 Edge extremely slow

    I got my AT&T s7 Edge shortly after it was released (when they were running the free Gear VR promo), and lately it's been running dog slow. It takes 3-5 seconds to open mundane apps like Gmail or the messaging app, and even keystrokes when typing have a noticeable delay. Admittedly, I likely...

    Accessories Am I the only one a little disappointed in the headphones?

    Got my new S7 Edge on Wednesday and really haven't done much but transfer all my stuff over and attach it to my Gear 2 Neo. That being said, I must say I'm a little disappointed in the headphones. The earbuds I got with my S5 Active and S2 Skyrocket were really impressive for earbuds in their...

    Need advice on which unit to buy

    I've been running my media center on a Rasberry Pi B+ via RasbMC/KODI for a bit over a year now, and it works great streaming from my media server. One thing it doesn't do well is streaming from the web since it lacks the appropriate interface and has trouble with the addons for stuff like...

    Help Geo News annoying the crap out of me...

    I do like the alerts from Geo News for things like storms, freezing weather, etc. But, when we get periods of heavy rain like we have for the last few days, I am getting upwards of 10 flood notifications an hour, and it's very distracting. I uninstalled the Weather Channel app because it was...

    Help Gear 2 Neo connection issues

    I've been having serious connection issues with my gear 2 neo. It will randomly not connect and usually I can get it to reconnect manually through the app. But now, it just times out. Yesterday, I went nuclear and did a factory reset on the watch, removed it from BT devices and uninstalled the...

    Help S5 Active takes awful pictures...

    No matter what I do, if something is within 3 feet of my phone the pictures come out blurry as heck. It has a hard time focusing, may have to tap 5 or 6 times. Then, when it looks focused on the screen, it STILL takes a crappy blurred pictures. I sell a lot on eBay, and would like to use my...

    Help Always 1 message notification too many

    When I get a text, my Gear 2 Neo always shows 1 more than I have. If I have no unread messages and one comes in, it shows 2. If 3 come in all at once, it shows 4. I've made sure to delete all of the notifications on my watch several times. Not sure what else I can do.

    Need a data limiter

    I am looking for an app exactly like Data Lock/Data Lock Lite. It has all the features I'm looking for, particularly to cut off data when a daily/weekly limit is reached. The only problem is that Data Lock is not compatible with my young friend's Ellipsis qmv7a according to Google Play. All...

    Help "Unable to display weather data" on lock screen

    My phone was running poorly a few weeks ago, so I did a factory reset. After which, this error displays constantly on the lock screen. The only threads I can find relating to this error are over a year and a half old, with no real answers. Suggestions range from turning off and back on...

    Help Daily alarm keeps turning off random days...

    My alarm app seems to be flakey the past few weeks. Random days will get turned off at random intervals for my main alarm. At first, I thought it was my 2 year old mucking about in my phone, so I stopped letting her play with it. Now I feel bad (because there is a letter game she loves, and...
