Galaxy S6 :: Unlocking In Pocket - Opening Apps / Texting And Calling People
May 8, 2015
I came from a note 2 to the s6 and never once had a problem with the phone unlocking in my pocket but it keeps happening with my s6 and it's opening apps and texting and calling people. I don't want to have top set a lock code or anything of I don't have to. If there was a way to stop the phone from lighting up when I get a text I don't think it would unlock but I can't find an option to turn it off.
If ATT and Verizon enabled wifi calling for our devices would that mean I can send a full quality video to other phones (like imessage) without it being compressed and distorted ? I know imessage uses wifi and their own servers but Im not sure exactly how that works.
ive changed the settings in my network according to the way they are supposed to be any sim i place in my phone does not allow callin or texting the phone is unlocked. Also went in to call settings and it says network or sim error each time i try with a diffrent sim. when i placed my sim in another samsung gs2 it was working fine i could call text surf the net etc?
About 3 times a day it unlocks and calls somebody up. Well it's not a software fault, it's just because I hit a button and the inside of my pocket just touches the screen and it unlocks. I saw on the xperia you have to slide your finger to unlock it, that would do the trick.
After the 5.1.1 update u changed something in the dialer so when you press any number or contact it call immediately. Have the option to remove it plz bcz sometimes when the phon is in my pocket it Calls people randomly.
I just switched from an iPhone to a Galaxy S6. I am loving the phone and everything about it...except the texting app notifications. Coming from the iphone I really liked how I could keep the content of the text private, but it would show me who sent it. I also had the notification pop up in the middle of the lock screen and turn the screen on momentarily, and then I could swipe the notification to the right to open it in the texting app.
For the life of me, I can't find an app that will do exactly that. I really liked that feature. I don't want a quick response window to reply from the lock screen.
i'm looking for an app that will allow me to text up to 15 people and using more than 160 characters. Can any of you help me find such a program or app?
Why does the Electrify not seem to have the ability to select multiple people to send one text to? On my Samsung I would select contacts, select all of the contacts I wanted and text away. I cannot seem to do that with the electrify. It appears I have to type in each persons name.
I installed 5.1.1 on my German S6 which is not rooted and use Nova as my launcher. Whenever I unlock my phone, S6 directly launches some random app (mostly S planner or maps or Playstore) though I didn't open them before locking the phone.I have cleared cache in recovery several times but the problem is still there which is little annoying...
I am trying to find out what additional apps people have on their phones and why? Now what do you have on your phone.I want a task killer to extend my battery life running Android 2.3.4
Is there an app i can download for texting and calling on WIFI using my SAME number? Im not talking about textnow or textplus.You have to create a new number.I have low signal at my house and id like to be able to use an app that has my same number so people can still call me without being confused and having two numbers.
I'm getting a Nokia N79 next week and i've been wondering will the white nokia N79 get marks on it easily? Because the colour white makes marks more visible then the colour black. Because after long term usage, marks start to appear. I would prefer the black nokia n79 but the shop might not sell it. (This isn't supposed to racist)
is there any way,whether through third-party app or perhaps OS 4 "group texting",that i can set up all the numbers into a group,type a message,and just select all quickly and send to all of them?
I have an issue with my S5. I updated from KitKat to Lollipop 5 days ago. After reading some of the horror stories associated with Lollipop and battery life, lag, phone performance, etc., I didn't waste any time before doing a full factory data reset. I am pretty sure the FDR worked, since I have had absolutely no problems with battery life, lag, or my phone running hot.
However, I have this weird issue where apps will randomly start on their own. Two examples, the first is that I opened my recent apps and noticed a whole bunch of apps in there that I had 100% most certainly not opened at any time since clearing my recent apps. The second example occurred this morning. I did a 10 minute walk to work and when I got to my office, I noticed that Rocket Music Player had opened and was playing my music. I highly doubt this happened due to any physical touch because not only would the power or home button have had to be pushed, but then the screen would have had to be swiped, the Rocket Player opened, and a song clicked on to start playing. I highly doubt this all occurred in my pocket.
I was recently given an unlocked Blackberry Bold 9000. It is an AT&T phone, but I am using it on the T-Mobile network. For some reason, I am able to connect to WiFi, but when I do I am only able to use the internet. I am not able to use the WiFi to make calls or to send texts. My T-Mobile signal is pretty weak, so it would be nice to use the WiFi to make calls and send texts from home and work.
Most of the time when i unlock my S6 a random app randomly opens. I am definitely not accidentally tapping a app as some of the apps that are opening are not on my home page. I am running Nova Prime launcher?
Just starting having this problem today.Texting with one person using iMessage (iphone to iphone) and every time they respond to my text, it doesn't appear on the open screen conversation.it appears as a new message from them. I'm having to text them and then close my conversation and then reopen the text message to see what they said. It's like having 20 people text you at the same time.
I am getting nuisance calls and texts from a particular landline number. Can I block these calls from coming through on my Nokia 7373? Also, can I put numbers into a group and divert all calls from that group to either voicemail or disconnect/block immediately?
Having a issue where apps will randomly launch when I unlock my phone (using the fingerprint scanner). It's just not one app it's many different apps on my phone. And no none of the apps where open before hand.
I have the popup "unfortunately samsung account has stopped" After opening apps, most of the time apps that are related to photos, or attaching them to apps.
Why this is happening?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Model Number: SM-G900F Android version: 5.0
Starts normally and goes on to charging applications. Start showing messages saying "Sorry! The application TW Launcher has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" and the button FORCE CLOSE Cannot make calls, cannot receive Call, also did try holding the power button in for a while and resetting it that way.
My Blackberry Bold will randomly go through my address book and start calling people all by itself! The green caller button doesn't work, when i lock the phone it will keep lighting up and when i tx it automatically comes up with if id like to call the number im txing, then calls it regardless!
This may sound silly, but there are certain times when I text a particular number that I should not be utilizing. Aside from the obvious "self control" answer, is there a way to "block" a number so my device will not let me call or text it?
My BB is a curve 9300 that has suddenly started restarting on its own while texting, calling, left alone etc. Has been doing this the past two days about 8 times a day. Softwares are supposedly up to date. Have removed the batteries and sim and restarted, but it has not helped.
When I try to block contacts on my Motorola droid turbo I cannot find anything of the sort. On previous android phones the ability has been in settings with easy to find access. But now I am unable to prevent calls and texts from reaching me.
