I have a Samsung S6 Edge. Every time I turn on GPS, either High Accuracy or Battery Saver.. whenever I lock my phone... i lose that GPS signal. Everytime time I wake it back up or unlock it..i will see a "searching for location", then a "location found". This happens for ALL application, Google Maps, Verizon Navigotor, MapMyRun, etc. This is very frustrating as I use these apps all the time and I cant keep my phone 'unlocked' as then the screen is active and I would accidently click things.
ADDITIONALLY, after using the GPS, I will then shut off the location feature and then my phone will continually say "searching for location", even with location off. I close all my current applications etc.. and it still says searching. This message does not go away until i turn back on location or restart my phone.
When I go to location settings, i see "recent location requests" of "Google Play services" and Location Services of "Google Location History".. that is it!
I am about to the point of wiping out my phone and starting over. (which i dont want to do). I have not battery saver or app killers downloaded on my phone so that cant be it.

Is there any way of stopping audible notifications when playing music on the S2? I find the pause in the music and beep really annoying, but can't find a way of switching it off.

My s2 keeps freezing, has constant drag and is just being a tad bit annoying.
i bought the phone new, i had rooted it and put a custom rom on. the custom rom ran fine for months so i doubt that is was a dodgy rom. then one day i just started getting these problems. so i took off the rooted rom, and when the problem was still there i unrooted (if that is the term) and rebooted to factory settings. i still have the problem though.

At least 8 to 10 times per day my new GS6 will lag and freeze when changing screens or going between applications. I must leave it alone for 15 to 20 seconds until it catches up. Happening to my wife's new GS6 as well.

Just updated via Samsung Apps the camera firmware to a CDE11 or something version. Took 4 minutes to update and flash this firmware. I wonder what exactly it changed in the camera firmware? Hopefully improved things or bug fixes.I will test a few videos and see if the bitrate has changed or not.

In a effort to make my WHITE Z5c "behave", I am trying to clean up my almost empty phone even more.
When I go to SETTINGS>APPS>DOWNLOADED, I have uninstalled any apps that I rarely use.
What I would like to to is to DISABLE some of the apps I NEVER use that came pre installed on the phone.
Apps such as AR EFFECT, HANGOUTS etc.
I am reluctantly going to peal off my expensive screen protector as well.

I update my iphone 5c to 7.1.2 ios without any second thought, and to my dismay - The whole system seems to slow down afterwards.
Furthermore, I discover that 2 very important apps are not functioning anymore:
1. Provision CAM: does not open at all! It's only shows error-"Network Error"
Uninstalling and reinstalling it did not worked.
2. Waze : screen shuts downs during navigation within 1 minute. Â
This is what I discovered so far, maybe there are problems in other Apps as well. Â
Info:
iPhone 5c, iOS 7.1.2

Verizon was making in JB was to remove their 'Verizon App' bloatware (in exchange for a boatload of Google bloatware). I had it disabled in ICS, but after the JB update (MAXX HD), not only is it still there, now it won't allow "Disable." It does allow a "Force Stop" if it's running, but no disable. The only real effect is take up a valuable icon spot on my app page, but since no one actually uses the Verizon app store, why even include it, much less put a firewall around it?

I received Omnia i910 yesterday and have spent a lot of time getting familiar with it. The phone is not intuitive compare to iphone but I am getting better.A few things I still can’t quite figure out.I am hoping someone can help me out here. It still have the official WM6.1 ROM
1. Is there a way I can disable the phone from using my carrier’s data plan? I only want to use data when connected to wifi.
2. How do I lock the screen? Can I assign a button to it?
3. Checking for Window update always fails on me, is it using EVDO only? Can I check update through wifi?

I have Runkeeper and Endomondo installed, and they both used to work perfectly, but for some reason they now don't work, they are always 'looking for Satellites' but they now never find them, I don't know what has changed.i have looked at my settings, and uninstalled and reinstalled them to no avail.When I click on Google maps in the same locations, it works fine, so my GPS on the phone works.It also works with Navfree, which confusses me even more!

On Sprint Stock OC9, and rooted.I am wondering if there is a way to disable some of the system notifications like "Charging... xx minutes Until Full" or the "Location Set By GPS". These are rather unnecessary. The GPS icon can stay but I don't need a notification along with it.

Kies doesn't have an option that says it backups apps? Gives me backup options of messages, phone contacts, settings etc but not apps? When I tell the program to back up everything. I just get ONE sbu file? Can I not back up apps individually?Even backed up on SD card is better then nothing?

Makes everything look cluttered.Cable charging, connected as media deice, power save on, 1 device connected for tether, and then the select keyboard. I am rooted, and if it matters, the phone is an ATT G920A.

Bought S6 today. I'm still keeping my Nexus 6 as a tablet of sorts.
I know that Samsung has an app called Smart Switch Mobile to transfer data and app from other Android phones. But. It's not compatible with the N6.
So, What's the best and fastest way to transfer apps from the N6 to the Samsung S6?

my phone does this thing that whenever I download a new app it spreads it to empty pages in the applications tab. Usually it will be done with a page after it has like 5 apps and then starts piling on the next page. Is there anything I can do to merge it all together?

I'm new to smart phones and trying to find my way around them. I had an Orange San Deigo phone and purchased a few apps for it and they ran very well (It's a pity the phone didn't work properly) I was upgraded to the Galaxy S2. I have now tried to install the apps on to the Galaxy but the Galaxy is not recognized in the download screen

why Samsung/Google have this ridiculous limit?It is incredibly annoying. I have a 32GB SD card installed with tonnes of space left on it and loads of space on the internal memory too, so why can't I install APPS on it!I have moved as many apps as I can to the SD card, but I am still running out. I shouldn't have this problem, so why is this limitation in place?

very first message here at this forum, I've just got my SGSII 1 week ago :-) wanted to organize all my apps into folders, so I did create folders and distribute them all among them.urious thing is that if all folders fit in one single page and all apps are inside those folders, apps are not shown at all.'m getting thing:If I pinch to see all pages, I can see my page with all the folders:f I touch to select, I'm back at a blank page, as in the first image attached.To see my apps, I just edited them and moved one folder to another page, and now I can see a page with one folder and another with the rest.
