This is the ugliest phone Samsung has produced. 1. Non removable battery and went from 2800 with the S5 to 2550 with the S6!!!!  Really don't think the battery is going to be long life. 2. 16 mp camera 3. no SD card (that's so people will pay more for 64 gb and up) 4. As you can tell, looking on the web, you don't see people demonstrating with the dark colors, they are fingerprint magnets with glass being on back.  Very disappointed with this one and I am normally a Galaxy S person.  If I edge up this year, sure won't be the S6.

  • Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge no Gold?

    Hi, I just checked to see the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge plans and currently there is no Gold available. Is Telstra going to be providing them in Gold on launch or in the future?

    Hi Freeagent, they look like great units. Mate two ways to buy, yes you can front up at your local Telstra shop EARLY on the release morning and hope they have enough of the model you want in stock or why not take a look at the "Pre-Order"site. With the pre-order you shouldn't miss out on getting the handset you want, S6; S6 Edge and the memory size you want. With the pre order you'll get free home delivery and you'll get the new Bonus Data. Take a look here, you can select either the S6 or S6 edge then fiddle with the options for, memory size and plan sizes, colour  then select pre order, and follow the prompts it's very easy: https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/mobiles-on-a-plan#filter/brand/Samsung/os//features//plan/s/sort/featured    

  • App sets behavior of Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge backlit keys

    If you want to set the behavior of the soft keys on the Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge, there's an app for that:
    http://www.droid-life.com/2015/04/21/handy-app-galaxy-button-lights-lets-you-decide-when-your-galaxy-s6s-soft-keys-light…

    Excuse the thread necromancy, I had an S4, that upgraded from KitKat to Lollipop and the app drawer remained sorted alphabetically. New S6 has them higglety pigglety which is of precisely no use to anyone whatsoever. No option to sort. So it seems to be wholly an S6 thing and o2/Telefonica need to bring pressure to bear upon Google/Samsung to allow a AZ sort. Why would I want apps ordered in date of install rather than the universal standard alphabet?! Almost as annoying as Facebook/Instagram installed on the ROM and not uninstallable.

  • Apps disabled on the Verizon Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge

    Samsung Galaxy S6: Verizon, AT&T remove Microsoft apps | BGR
    I was curious about which features would be removed from the galaxy s6/ s6 edge on Verizon; Verizon has been known to remove features! (Which might have influenced a consumer's decision to buy it in the first place). Anyway, I saw the article above today, and thought it might be helpful for anyone that hasnt bought an S6 yet. I feel that if Verizon removes apps and/or features it should also be a standard of practice to share what has they've disabled or removed.
    Verizon S6 & S6 Edges do not come with:
    Smart Manager
    One drive (& 100 GB free storage)
    Skype, One Note, & Office Mobile preloaded

    Please be advised--- Apparently Verizon has also disabled Samsung's stock browser. Subsequently this has also removed the feature for fingerprint sign-in...

    Not sure that I have selected the correct forum.  Hope my questions are clearly stated.
    Having problems connecting iMac(late 2006) running 10.7.5 to a Samsung Flat Screen TV using separate audio/speaker cable and HDMI standard cable, mini-DVI to HDMI video converter.  TV displays generic Apple galaxy background and "some" windows (e.g. screen resolution choices).   It does not show Mail or Safari menus.  System preferences'  display "gathered" the Samsung and chose its resolution.  I did not find a way to select the Samsung as my display.
    In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access.  Is there any way to make this work for us?  We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web.  Do we need Apple TV to do this?  Or is it not possible with our old iMac?  My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor. 
    Thank you

    Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
    There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
    You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
    Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
    If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
    If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time,  you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
    These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
    Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
    Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

  • Horrible Iphone5 policy and customer service at Tiffany Springs store in MO.

    My husband and I paid the $50 deposit and preordered 2 new Iphone 5's from the Tiffany Springs, MO store location the weekend that the Iphone was released. Not only have we waited a full 2 weeks for the phones to come in, but in the meantime my old 3s Iphone completely crashed on me. As a loyal and trusting Best Buy customer I went on the advice of the store associate and purchased a cheap GO Phone to get me by until the new Iphone came in. Today I received a phone call that they have my phone. Hurray! Oh wait, BTW - did I mention that I am out of town for a family funeral this weekend and will not return until Monday, which is 3 business days away?? According to the store associate and store manager in Tiffany Spring, MO,  Best Buy's policy is that they will not hold the product for more than 72 hours and the system will automaticaly generate an email to the next available customer. Of course I was shocked and asked why they couldn't hold my phone. Of course I asked what kind of store manager was he and his store associate Amber that they should be able to use common sense and override such a policy, but I was met with true complacency on my issue and treated as if I THE CUSTOMER was somehow in the wrong!!!!! Is this how a customer should be treated???? I think not. I still have not received word in either a phone call or email as to whether or not my phone will be there on Monday and it has been over 8 hours since I spoke with the manager. I guess I should take my business elsewhere....

    I agree with the three day span and it is stated very clearly in the paperwork that is there is no exceptions for mass amounts of pre orders. Its unfortunate the circumstances that you had to leave town but there are people like me who were duped into trading in their old iPhone's before the new iPhone came out (a sales rep told me if I didn't trade in my phone before then it would be worthless and pretty much I would be stupid to not turn it in now) so as you can imagine now I'm without a phone at all and on the verge of losing my contract with Verizon. I called my local Best Buy (Santa Rosa, CA) and talked to the manager of the mobile department, Joey and he took down my info and said he would look into it and get back to me in a couple days, well its almost been two weeks and still no word back. I'm mad at Best Buy because they totally lied to me, the sales person took me for a ride and completely lied to me, so now like hundreds of thousands of other people I am waiting by the phone to hear anything back from Best Buy and trust me I'm already upset and if I were to hear that they had my phone the whole time but they couldn't give it to me because the person in front of me hasn't come to get it and its been over three days I would be furious. Best Buy is not making any exceptions for anyone, if they did they would be in more hot water than they already are.
    Best Buy was counting on getting a lot more iPhones. Apple pulled 50% of the stock set aside for Best Buy at the last minute to fill their own online preorders. I understand your frustration, and that rep should have called by now, but they're right, you received top dollar for your trade-in. Wait it out, I love my iPhone 5 and you will too!

  • Skills marketplace - announce availability

    I'd like to make the following suggestion for Skills Marketplace:
    Provide an "Announce Availability" section, where oracle professionals - permanent and contract - announce availablity for their next job. Details would include availability date, primary skills and certifications, experience level, geographies, desired work type, and contact information. Prospective employers, hirers and agents can search on these attributes.

    Thank you for your feedback. We will forward your comments over to the OTN Team member in charge of SkillsMarketplace.
    Best Regards, OTN Team

  • Edge Inspect available for free trial?

    Is Edge Inspect available for free trial? If so, How do i download?

    Yes, you can get it here: https://creative.adobe.com/inspect
    ...though I think you'll need to sign in with your Adobe ID to get there. The free version only allows you to have one device connected at a time, but there's no time limit and all the features like screenshots and remote inspection are enabled.
    Let us know if you have any questions,

  • No audio AND no volume adjustment available. Why?

    No audio AND no volume adjustment available. Why?

    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • Return or exchange Galaxy S3 and keep unlimited data?

    I have preordered a Galaxy S3 and it's been shipped already, should be delivered on Monday. After finding out about the encrypted bootloader on this phone I'm not sure I want it anymore (I'll save that rant for somewhere else). If I return the device will I keep my unlimited data? I ordered it prior to June 28th. I've read conflicting info about restocking fees. Do I need to refuse delivery from Fedex or can I accept delivery and go through normal return methods without being charged a fee? Paying $35 to return a phone that's still in its shrink wrap seems ridiculous.
    I'm also trying to decide whether I'd prefer a Galaxy Nexus. I know that if I return the S3 and then try to re-use my upgrade, I'll lose unlimited data. Is there a way for me to do a direct exchange of one device for the other, so that I'm not technically cancelling one upgrade and re-using it?

    I would just refuse delivery if you don't want the phone. If you
    return this phone your upgrade will fall under the new upgrade after June 28,
    2012 and as such you will have to move to the new plans when you upgrade at
    subsidized prices. You do have the right to return for exchange I was told by VZW rep
    but then again your mileage may vary as to what you do.  It is not a set thing and no one
    at VZW will always to the samething in all locations.  Again buyer beware.  The last phone I
    returned by just not accepting delivery which was just late last year VZW
    charged the restocking fee but I mentioned to the person I called that it was
    still not opened.  They said the phone
    still had to go back as an opened phone as they had to open the package to make
    sure everything was in the box as the shrink wrap could have been re-shrunk by
    someone else in shipping.  They told me
    they did not take any returns without an inspection of the contents.  I hope your mileage will vary with your
    return.  Once they go back they go to
    refurbished phones?  I have been seeing
    people complain they are getting new phones with no battery cover and VZW tells
    them to return them which I am sure VZW will charge the re-stocking fee
    anyway.  These issues are why I don’t
    order phones off the web site.  I only
    purchase from a VZW store.

  • I have a Galaxy SIII and I stopped receiving visual notification for text messages.  How do I correct it?

    I have a Galaxy SIII and recently stopped receiving visual notification for text messages.  How do I correct it?

        Hmmm that's strange TopDiver. Let's get to the bottom of this. Have you checked the notification settings on the device? To verify the notification setting on the device click on menu>settings>sound>notification sound, then test device notifications.
    Thank You,

    i cannot found iLife app on my macbook pro and when i want to buying it i cannot and i have this massage (These apps cannot be accepted by your Apple ID.These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's purchases list. If you don't have access to that AppleID and want to receive future updates, you will needto purchase the applications ) what i want to do now ? please tell me

    Either use the Apple ID you used when you originally purchased the applications or you will have to purchase them using your Apple ID. If you did not have the other Apple ID, then you have the applications illegally or they were improperly included with a computer you purchased from someone else.

    So I looked up the info on OWC as suggested and found the correct memory to upgrade but not sure how much to get and which option? I wanted to know how much space I have available to upgrade so I don't buy something that's more than what can be used. I'm not sure if I need 4GB or 8GB of ram? Also there are two options with every memory choice for instance:
    8.0GB PC3-10600 1333MHZ SO Kit (4GB + 4GB) w/Lifetime Limited Warranty
    Same Day
    $78.79
    8.0GB PC3-10600 SO-DIMM 204 Pin w/Lifetime Limited Warranty
    Same Day
    $82.79
    Not sure what the difference is in the two and which I would need to purchase? Thank you for all your help!
