The default launcher is great... except that it doesn't let you create folders in the app drawer. Thats a deal killer for me, so I have to fall back to Nova.

Can you elaborate on "it's like night and day"?

Thanks. The first post in the thread should really be updated with new versions!

Hi everyone, I've used a Sprint-branded Galaxy S8 since release. I'd been with Sprint forever, but just recently made the jump to T-Mobile. I replaced my Sprint SIM with a TMO SIM, and everything has been working fine since. A couple of questions now... a) Will I be getting my software updates...

From the little I've been able to find so far, "App Stack" is something that is installed on only the Sprint variant of the Galaxy S8. Beyond that, I can't find anything. It IS an app that I can uninstall. It weighs in at 47.76MB, and appears useless to me. I'd prefer to dump it. Oddly enough...

Ditto on my S8. xPhrostx or Stanleywinthrop ... did either of you ever end up having any success? Oddly enough, it worked fine on my dad's S3!!!

Every Sprint Galaxy that I've had for YEARS now has had built-in HotSpot. I've always wondered why its been a big deal in the xda forums. SM-G950U, running Android 7.0 (software version QD9).

I just spoke with a Target Mobile rep, who admitted he didn't know for sure. He checked with his District Manager who confirmed that YES, you will qualify for additional $120 in gift cards as long as you pay the taxes on your Redcard at time of purchase, and keep your DPP active for the full 2...

Here is another wrinkle to the Target offer that I don't see anyone discussing. We all know about the $100 gift card at activation. No big deal. But in my "pre-order confirmation email", it also states the following: If I'm reading this right... I will get a $100 gift card at activation...

Crazy long story short... my phone is not allowing audio input from any source. I first noticed it with voice control (OK Google), where my phone wasn't responding. Then I tried manually clicking on the microphone to manually trigger it to listen... and nothing. Then I tried making a phone...

Hi everyone... I just got the updated Google app, which is supposed to enable Google Assistant on all phones running Marshmallow and Nougat. Here is the info from Google's own blog... https://blog.google/products/assistant/meet-your-googleassistant/ According to this blog, "To get started...

A little background first... For the last few weeks, I have been experiencing poor battery life. I believe it started around the time of the last security update, but I can't prove it. Since then, I have uninstalled a bunch of apps, been thru every possible App and System setting that would...

Glad to hear that others are also having battery issues with this update. Hope Sammy fixes this with the November security patch... this is totally unacceptable. Really don't want to root or flash new firmware.

Nope, don't run Greenify or any task killers at all. (Even if I did.. how would that change an actual setting within Nova? Killing a process is one thing.. but changing a setting is completely different AFAIK)

Is anyone else having a problem with the Unread Count Badges? For several weeks now (at least)... my Unread Count Badges will just randomly turn off. I will be using my phone, and all of my badges are working fine (unread email/sms/phone calls). No problem. Then a little while longer, I'll get...
