It could be a Christmas family photo, a great present, a winter scene or something else entirely – we only ask that it’s a photo that you have taken, and not one belonging to someone else (or one found on the internet). By entering a photo you agree to having it posted on the Community Forum lounge for the second part of the competition.
To submit your photo please PM it to SeanD or StephanieG by 5pm on 16th Dec, the Moderators will convene and judge the best photo, which will be announced on 19th December – winner will receive a brand new Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.
The second chance to win will be from 19th Dec to 23rd Dec – during this time we’ll post the winning photograph in the Lounge and invite you all to caption it with a festive phrase, the best caption will win the second Samsung Galaxy 2 Tab. Again captions should be submitted to SeanD or StephanieG via PM by 5pm 23rd December and the caption competition will be judged by the Mod team with the winner announced after on 23rd Dec.
Please note that if you win the photo competition you can’t also win the caption comp as well!
Prizes will be sent to the winners after the 23rd December.
Good luck everybody, please get your photos in to Sean and Steph before 16th Dec.

Hi all
I'm really pleased to announce our photo competition winner, congrats to StuartRogerson - one Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 will be on Santa's sleigh with your name on it shortly!
But there's still one Galaxy 2 to be won in part two of the competition - see below for the winning photo from Stuart. We felt this picture best captured the feeling and meaning of Christmas - but what do you think? PM a caption for this photo to StephanieG or SeanD and we'll select the best as the winner, it should be something that captures the spirit of Christmas - it can be funny, seasonal or sentimental. Last day for submitting your captions is 23rd Dec (by 5pm) so get your thinking caps on, we're looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Unable to use FiOS Mobile Remote App on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2

I'm one of the holdout Blackberry customers who Verizon doesn't recognize as wanting apps anymore. I finally broke down and bought an Android tablet device when I saw the FiOS Mobile Remote App and recognized it as an easy solution for controling my multiple HD STBs in my "Man Cave". Unfortunately, the app has been completely useless.
The app loads fine. I'm able to register each HD STB with the app, however doing anything more than the initial set-up for the remote function results in a crash. Every time I attempt to use it, I get the message "Unfortunately, FiOS Remote has stopped." I will occassionally see the attempted connection displayed on the corner of my TV screen.
All other functions of the app work, including the DVR function.
I've reported this failure for months, using the handy little report button below the crash message. No response.
I've commented on this topic in threads from other users with the same problem. No response.
I've posted to the comments section of the Google Play store. No response.
Please, would someone from Verizon acknowledge this problem exists? My best theory so far is that my tablet device is not on a Verizon data plan (WiFi only), so therefore Verizon isn't interested in supporting it (or this loyal customer).
Device is Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, 7.0, running Android 4.0.4. All FiOs STBs replaced with latest generation.

I am sorry to hear about the troubles you are having with the app. We try to make the app as compatible with all devices as possible. The full list of devices the mobile remote is compatible with is https://www22.verizon.com/OnDemand/unprotected/AboutFlexView.aspx . You may find there may be devices that do work with it that re not on the list, but these are all verified working devices with the app. Since yours doesn't appear to be on the list, we can not gaurantee it will work. Submitting all the feedback has gotten word back to Verizon about the troubles you are having. You can also submit this to the Verizon Idea Exchange. Please search on the idea exchange and cast your vote. There may be another member who made the same suggestion. If not, please add a new idea so your fellow community members can comment and vote on your suggestion. http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Verizon-Idea-Exchange/ct-p/ideaexchange .

Unable to preview folios in Adobe Content viewer using Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (SM-T210)

Hi,
I am using Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (SM-T210) Android Version 4.1.2 .The folios were not displayed and I only get a black screen, despite the fact that I was able to download the Adobe Content Viewer latest android version (3.3.0.0.87854), the Android device was detected by Adobe CC, able to load the folio into the device. I tried re-installing the app, but it did not work.
It may also help to mention that I can't view the DPS Tips App files, also. I was able to download the app and its documents (folio basics, etc.), But the same black screen is displayed when I try to read them.
Are there any programs that I have to download for it to work? Please help.
Thank you for reading.

Our testers looked at this and saw the same problem. Updating the OS firmware of the Galaxy Tab 3 resolved the issue.

Request for Admin-BBY Sticky Post for new Trade In & Trade Up Samsung Galaxy Tab S $50 Offer Details

Considering some of the problems that people have had in trading in their qualifying working tablets not in Best Buy's trade-in system for a minimum $50 Best Buy Gift Card during the ending Surface 3 promotion... would it be possible for Admin BBY to post a new sticky message for the new promo starting today for trading in any non Nook/ereader tablet without screen/water damage that turns on for a $50 gift card and coupon for $50 off the Samsung Galaxy Tab S? It would be valuable to know if any of the terms of the trade-in have changed, and to head off questions about the inability to use more than one coupon per tablet purchase before you are inundated with complaints..
Thanks in advance! Nothing gets me into a brick and mortar store more assuredly than the promise of a discount off a coveted new piece of technology!

Hello StellaDallas-
It’s definitely concerning when customers are experiencing disappointments with one of our promotions and I can certainly understand your desire to see something posted on our community to help head off any future issues.
The stores are provided with all the information that they need to process these promotions correctly and hopefully, we have also learned from any past mistakes as well when putting them together. Right now, you can find all the details of the Samsung Tab 3 trade-in promotion here. From what I can see, it seems to cover all the details of the promotion very well, including stating that only one coupon can be used per transaction.
Otherwise, as far as I can tell, the promotion is identical to the Surface 3 promotion, with the caveat that the trade-in must be used towards the purchase of a Samsung Galaxy Tab S.
Thanks for connecting with us!

Samsung Galaxy Tab Orientation/aspectRatio Bug

Hi there,
we developed an App and defined <aspectRation>portrait</portrait> in the descriptor xml.
We also set:
<autoOrients>false</autoOrients>
        <fullScreen>true</fullScreen>
        <visible>true</visible>
        <softKeyboardBehavior>none</softKeyboardBehavior>
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 gt-p3110 with Android 4.2.2 seems to ignore this setting and so the app always crashes.
We tested it with Android 3.7 and 3.8 beta.
Perhaps this is also the issue why the App becomes rejected on Samsung Apps...
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1212455?tstart=0

Its been awhile, but if I remember correctly the Galaxy Tab's default orientation is Landscape where as most devices, certainly phones, tend to have their default orientation as Portrait. So my code actually detects Portrait mode as:
var isPortraitView:Boolean;
public function setIsPortraitView():void {
    // Each device, for AIR or for Android, can choose either Landscape mode or Portrait mode as the DEFAULT.
    // This means there is no system property to check for portrait mode, so we'll create our own.
    isPortraitView = (stage.fullScreenWidth < stage.fullScreenHeight);
The apps I work with auto orient which won't happen if you set the Aspect ratio to Portrait or Landscape - regardless of how the AutoOrient flag is set. Setting the aspect ratio to auto just removes the line entirely from the app descriptor file.
So my app at start up determines and sets isPortraitView and then checks the stage.orientation property against it like so:
// Interpretes the given orientation against the given aspect ratio
public function getIsPortrait(orientation:String, aspectR:Boolean):Boolean {
     var view:Boolean = false;
     switch (orientation) {
        case StageOrientation.DEFAULT:
        case StageOrientation.UPSIDE_DOWN:
             view = aspectR;
             break;
        case StageOrientation.ROTATED_LEFT:
        case StageOrientation.ROTATED_RIGHT:
             view = !aspectR;
             break;
        case StageOrientation.UNKNOWN:
        default:
             break;
     return view;
Later when my app gets orientation change events I use the above method to decode them. Remember though that as the device physically rotates clockwise the orientation events are received counterclockwise - think of it as a bubble on a level.
Also there can be a problem with apps not reporting their capabilities correctly when first starting up. So my code actually takes it one step farther and when first setting isPortraitView I also use it to correctly set internal properties for width and height like so:
// Capabilities reports screen resX and resY based on the mode the app starts in
if (isPortraitView) {
    screenResLandscapeWidth = Capabilities.screenResolutionY;
    screenResLandscapeHeight = Capabilities.screenResolutionX;
else {
    screenResLandscapeWidth = Capabilities.screenResolutionX;
    screenResLandscapeHeight = Capabilities.screenResolutionY;
Also lets say I have an app with a stage width and height of 600x400 on a device with a 1280x800 screen. I finally had to hardcode these values as some devices would report stage.fullScreenWidth as 600 and at other times report it as the device's screen width of 1280. So I recommend always having your app configure its own internal properties at startup and then have your code only refer to those properties. That way if there's a problem with your app receiving bad data it's much easier to isolate it and code a workaround.
I hope that helps.

Printing from a Samsung Galaxy Tab II to a HP 6500a-E710n

I recently acquired a Samsung Galaxy Tab II tablet and am trying to find out if there is a an app to print to my HP 6500a-E710n multifunction printer. We have contacted Samsung and they recommended contacting HP. Our wireless network works fine but I cannot seem to find any info on software or an app for this printer.

Have you tried HP's printing app?: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/products/smart-phones-handhelds-calculators/mobile-apps/app_details.html?ap...

HP Touchpad Trade in Trade up - Samsung Galaxy Tab S

Good Afternoon,
I went to store SNELLVILLE GA (Store 776) last night, to do the HP Trade up Trade In for the Samsung Galaxy. I was denied the ability to trade it in as it was not in their system or shows up as discontinued. Funny thing is that I showed them this forum where there were other responses from my HP touch pad on the Best Buy Wifi. Yet the supervisor Ashley would not budge and said she cannot help me. Unfortunately the manager was busy helping other customers and was unable to assist me.
If it's not too much trouble can someone from this forum help me? Possiby call the store and provide some guidance? I truly appreciate your assistance. I look forward to a prompt resolution.
Please note that my tablet is in great condition.
No water damage,
No scratches
Powers up fine
Has screen protector
Thanks,

Hello velez2311,
I was very happy to read that you set out to participate in our Trade In and Trade Up promotion with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S. I’m disappointed to hear that your experience at the Snellville store was not what you had expected when you attempted to trade in your tablet.
You should be able to participate in this promotion, regardless of whether your qualifying tablet is found in our trade in system. Our store associates should be knowledgeable about how to process such a trade in should they be unable to locate your tablet model in our system. That being said, some stores do have further limitations.
I have reached out to the Snellville store leadership with the details required to process this promotion. I suggest that you make another visit to the store and request a manager assist you with this promotion.
You may view the Trade In and Trade Up details here if needed. I'm grateful that you wrote to us about your experience.
Sincerely,

Can't get rid of weird Japanese ads on Samsung Galaxy Tab 4

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4, and one of the first weeks I started using it, this Japanese Assistive Touch type thing appeared, but wasn’t connected with an app I could uninstall to get rid of it. But after a couple weeks, it disappeared without my noticing (or doing anything to cause it to go away). But now (from about several weeks ago) I have started getting these popup ads. However, they are all in Japanese, which leads me to think the Assistive Touch and these ads are connected somehow. When I have accidentally clicked on the ads they try to get me to download their apps (which all have very suspicious permissions). But now I can’t figure out how to make them go away. I have run scans through TrustGo AntiVirus, AVG AntiVirus, Clean Master Antivirus, TrustGo Ad Detector, and Lookout Ad Detector multiple times, and all of them after an initial scan and clear (which only gave basic things and didn’t solve the problem anyway) have told me my system is clean, even though I am still getting the ads. I have run Clean Master’s Junk Files scan, and in the results under the “Obsolete apks” heading, were three apps with Japanese titles, and the words Not Installed underneath them. I told Clean Master to “clean junk”, and the apps disappeared from the list, but the ads were still appearing. Next, I tried running my device in Safe Mode to see if I could pinpoint the problem to a third party app (even though Clean Master had classified them as Not Installed). When I ran it in Safe Mode, I clicked through all the apps available, and no ads appeared. But when I restarted it in Normal Mode, I clicked through all the same apps from Safe Mode, and still no ads appeared. It was only when I went to a third party app that the ads appeared. I went to several third party apps, and ads popped up on almost all of them. However, I’m not sure what to do to now to try to get the ads off. Any suggestions? I would like to avoid doing a factory reset if at all possible.

Not technically, no, but around the beginning of when I got my tablet in
July, an Assistive Touch type thing appeared, but I didn't download it.
That was also in Japanese, but I couldn't figure out a way to delete it.
However, it somehow disappeared without my noticing or doing anything about
it. I feel like they're connected. So the issue's been going on for longer
than from the last app I downloaded. I haven't removed any apps yet to test
it though.

How to install adobe reader on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4.?

I can't figure out how to install adobe reader on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. Can anyone help? I want the free version.
Thanks!

Please see How to uninstall and reinstall Adobe Reader for Android.
If you have not installed Adobe Reader for Android on the device before, you can just skip to the second section: How to reinstall Adobe Reader.
Adobe Reader is a free PDF viewer. You can view PDF documents, add comments (e.g. sticky notes, highlight, freehand drawing, handwritten signatures), fill out forms, add personalized bookmarks, etc. Only extra features (e.g. converting from PDF to Word/Excel, converting from Word/Excel to PDF) require paid subscription services.
Please let us know if you have any further questions about installation.

I recently received a samsung galaxy tab 4 nook? and no matter what i cant sign in adobe keeps saying my iinfo is wrong yet i can sign on here whats the issuee and how can i fix it

I've tried resetting the password that doesn't work no matter what I try

I wish I had an answer, but the same thing is happening to me. Can I go back to the old version of Digital Editions, please? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Update: While I didn't answer the question above, I did manage to fix my problem. Here is the background: My old Nook was a Nook Color, which, while it was greatly loved and semi-intelligent, it wasn't a tablet. When I connected it to my computer, it was recognized as a device and showed up in Digital Editions. My library uses Overdrive to handle the borrowing and download/reading functions. When you borrow a book, you downloaded it to your computer, opened it in Digital Editions, and then did a "drag and drop" into your Nook. I had assumed that when I got my new Samsung Galaxy Tab Nook, it would work the same way. I had not adjusted my thinking to realize that the Tab is a true computer with an operating system (Android) such as that on my laptop. I was trying to fix the problem with the DRM authorization using every other ePub reader that I could find (installing the app and then attempting to open the book) and nothing worked. I finally got a message that clicked saying "You do not have rights to open this book" rather than the unhelpful message that I got from Digital Editions saying "Error! Check Authorization". I looked at my library's website and caught the notification that Overdrive has an app. I downloaded and installed it, connected to my library, logged in using my library card number and everything was there. Now, instead of downloading to my laptop and then moving the book to my Nook, I directly connect to my library's website and download the book to my Galaxy Tab. I could read directly in my browser (provided I was connected to the internet) but downloading ensures that I can read the book in any situation.
This absolutely does not fix the problem in the question above, nor does it answer why my old method worked for exactly two and a half books and then stopped working, but at least I learned something and I have a solution that means my Galaxy Tab can be used for the primary function of my old Nook, that of packing library books with me no matter where I am in a lightweight, easily read format.

'Save as' in Adobe Reader app? (Samsung Galaxy tab)

My tech will be using a Samsung Galaxy tab installed with Adobe Reader to fill-in forms I created from Adobe Acrobat X Pro. We are using DropBox to 'share' the files. The only option I am missing is a 'save as' feature on the Adobe Reader app. I've already extended all the rights of the pdf forms to Reader so according to all the forums, he should have full functionality. HOW CAN I 'SAVE AS' once he has filled out the form so he can use it for multiple equipment???

I don't believe this is possible. You might want to try to have each individual email you the file once they complete the form.
