When I pre-registered to pre-order, I got a $50 credit. Then when I pre-ordered I got an additional $150 credit, and I now have $200 credit. Both of those were described in emails from Samsung.

My 10+ unlocked Aura 256G shipped today Aug 19 and FedEx shows they'll deliver Aug 21. That is two days earlier than the Samsung date in the order status. Dallas, TX area.

That's why all phones should have replaceable batteries. I don't want to throw out a phone just because the battery is degraded.

Oh, I was thinking it goes on sale Aug 7, but I see that's just the announce date.

In the past I've seen Samsung offer pre-orders of new phones, usually with some kind of bonus like earbuds or something, and trade-in for old phones. I don't see anything for the Note 10. Any thoughts on why?

I don't have any personal knowledge on this, but the Galileo website says it started offering "Initial Services" in December 2016. https://www.gsa.europa.eu/newsroom/news/galileo-goes-live Garmin's latest GPS watches, the F5 plus series, is using Galileo, and I've seen posts reporting it's...

It's LG-H910. AT&T. I looked through the Developer settings and didn't see anything related to dpi, but thanks for the suggestion.

No, not rooted. I did enable developer mode recently, but I'm not sure if that was before or after the problem started. Turning off developer mode didn't help.

There is a display setting for "Display Size" with a slider. It's not labeled, but there are 3 settings, small, medium, and large. It changes the size of the icons and icon text. I've had it set at large for a long time, but a few days ago the icons and icon text got smaller. The slider is...

I registered and got an email Sept 29 saying it was approved, and they'd send another email with a link to purchase the Note 8. I never got a 2nd email so I called them today and spent 20 minutes talking with people who didn't know what to do, so it got "escalated". Anyone else run into...

Thanks for the app suggestions. I tried a couple OTG readers with no success. Stickmount sounds promising, but it requires root, so I can't try it just yet.

Thanks for your suggestion. The storage screen shows internal memory and an SD card, but not the USB stick. I posted this same question a year ago about the V20, and didn't get much feedback then, either. Maybe it's not common for people to use a USB stick with their phone.

I'll give a 3rd vote for the Spigen Rugged Armor. I had it on my V20 also and never had a problem. ---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 PM ---------- That might mean they only *performed* 14 of the MIL-STD-810 tests. A lot of them are not relevant, like...

I have used a USB stick with many different Samsung phones, and when the USB stick is inserted, a window pops up on the phone, and you can transfer files back and forth. My friend's V10 works this way. But on my V20, and now V30, there is no response at all to inserting a USB stick. If I...

I looked at the display unit at an AT&T store, and couldn't see any banding or uneven brightness on it with low backlight levels. Couldn't do anything about the ambient light. I bought one, and I don't see any of that at any brightness level or ambient light. There's definitely a blue tint...

I wonder what changed. Early articles said they'd include B&O Play headphones, and the V30 had a B&O logo on the back. The articles are still there, if you want to search.

I don't think it downloaded. It just kept showing the "continue update" button which did nothing. Took it to a store today and they did something to initiate the download. It upgraded and it's H91010i now. The AT&T tech support on the phone yesterday was wrong, I didn't have the update.

I got this update last night, but the phone keeps telling me there's an update. There's an icon to "continue update", but nothing happens when I click it. I called tech support and they got on my phone and verified the update was done, but couldn't figure out why it keeps announcing an update...

I have an AT&T model, and yes, sometimes Gmail is received late. I've had people send me an email, and 10 minutes later nothing has happened. Then I open the Gmail app, and 5 messages suddenly show up. This is intermittent. Most of the time I don't see a delay.

On this page: https://www.lgv20launchpromo.com/redemption#home there is a chat button on the upper right. Seems to only be available during business hours. ---------- Post added at 10:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 PM ---------- I received the ear buds today. They sound...

My registration number was around 22,000, I registered on Oct 31, 2016. They shipped yesterday, Dec 2, 2016. I called and asked about the status a week or two after I registered, and got the approval right away. I used online chat yesterday to ask the shipping status, and then they shipped...

I had a Note Edge which I loved. I especially liked the rounded Edge display with lots of apps and notifications on it. Also liked jotting notes with the stylus. I had the Note 7 briefly and didn't like the aspect ratio of it. Felt too tall and skinny to me. I'm very happy with the V20...

I can connect my V20 to a Windows PC via USB cable, and transfer files back and forth. I had to pick something on a menu the first time I plugged in the phone. However, if I plug a USB stick directly into the V20, it does not recognize it, or respond at all. My friend plugs the same USB stick...

For those who got shipping notice, can you include your reference number (roughly, put a couple x's at the end)? Then others can see how close they might be. My reference is 225xx, and it's approved but not shipped.

"proves" may have been too strong a word

I just got an OTA update from AT&T this morning, and no longer have root. Will rooting again revert back to an earlier system, or will today's update still be there?

I was rooted stock, and lost root after the OTA update.

Sorry to be so dense, but what does "flash with cwm" mean? I've searched for "cwm" but didn't find anything that looked like steps I could follow.

Mine did that, then I got a replacement s Pen and it worked perfectly.

Yeah, that's the other big annoyance, Not only doesn't it handle pictures, if someone sends a txt with a pict, it doesn't get delivered, and the sender doesn't get any indication it didn't go.

It used to be when I made a call using google voice, the call log would show the google relay phone number instead of the number I dialed. I got the OTA update to 4.1.2, and now I see that it's correctly showing the contact number in the log instead of the google number. Yay!

Does this leave all your settings, apps, data, etc. intact? Or do you have to restore everything after rooting?

It's being released gradually. So if it hasn't been released to your phone yet, there's nothing you can do to get it OTA. There are some reports of people making changes to their phones and then receiving the update. It's not clear whether the changes made the difference, or the phone just...

Help! I rooted my device this way: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1980644 I didn't understand any of it, I just followed directions. When I read a statement like "odin flash cf auto root for stock recovery" I don't know what it means. Can someone interpret that for me...

Yeah, trying to do it on the phone always results in an error. When you do it online as described above it'll work, even though the phone will still report otherwise.

QuickPic is a free picture-viewing app which lets you include and exclude folders so you only see pictures you want.

Wells Fargo is still not working for me, but there was an update to the New York Times app today which fixed the problem. The notes said it affected "a small number of users". Why is it I'm generally in the "small number" for problems, but not in the lottery :) Since my original post I've...

I called a system and needed to press "1" and found it wouldn't recognize my button push at all. The phone also doesn't make a DTMF sound in the speaker. So I called another phone from the Note 2 and pushed keys, and found the DTMF is very noisy. Generally phones have a setting for the...

Thanks both of you for checking, now I won't go mad trying to debug it.

The NY Times and Wells Fargo apps on my Note 2 won't work will the cell data connection. Either the progress indicator spins endlessly or they report there's no connection to the internet. I use both these apps on a Galaxy S3 and they work fine. If I switch the Note 2 to WiFi the apps work...

:o Thanks!

I did this, see I have a Superuser app, and I downloaded the paid version of Titanium backup pro, but can't find it in my apps folder, or find any other way to launch it. Help?

If you make an outgoing call with Google Voice, the display and call log will show the Google relay phone number, not the contact phone number. That was handled correctly on my Galaxy S3 on Verizon. ---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 PM ---------- The...

My S3 on Verizon did this initially, then started working correctly, the call log would show the number I called instead of the GV proxy number. My AT&T Note 2 is showing the GV proxy number, which I find annoying and wrong. Google/Samsung/AT&T: I would like my call log to show the phone...

Mine won't pair with the Pioneer in my truck. Says automatic pairing failed. When I go to bluetooth settings in the Pioneer, then it connects. Two other Android phones work perfectly.

I say don't worry about it. The battery is replaceable and doesn't cost much. Enjoy your new toy any way you like and put battery worries out of your head.

I live in Dallas, too. FedEx picked it up yesterday, then it sat at FedEx Ft. Worth for 27 hrs, and just left there 30 minutes ago.

My order of 10/25 also said I'd receive it on or around Nov 9. No estimate of ship date, and no promise on any firm date. I don't want to sound like an apologist here, but I used to work at Qualcomm, and supplied chips to all the big cell makers, and getting several million phones built...

I'm anxious to get mine, too, but people like us counting the minutes 'til we get the latest phone are an extremely tiny portion of their 100+ million subscribers, and they aren't going to modify their business practices to accommodate us. If there are 100 of us, we're 1 in a million to AT&T.

Every once in awhile; and it's rare, but sometimes a person posts info on the internet with absolute certain authority, and it turns out it's wrong, so a few ambitious skeptics will go ahead and doubt the info and test it for themselves, and I think that's a healthy process, and I welcome it...
