No, I haven't just because I don't own one. I guess I might try to take my phone over to the Best Buy Samsung store and hopefully they have one I can try it on there - that way if it doesn't work on that one either, then that would let me know that perhaps I just have a bad phone with faulty...

Over the weekend I did more test with my 5 various 3rd party Qi Fast Wireless Chargers (Choetech, Nektek, Yooteck, etc). All worked fine with my S7 Edge so long as I was using a Quick Charge 2.0 Charger and a decent cable. I had no issues. None have worked with my S8+ though the Nektek seems to...

I have the same issue. I had 6 Fast Wireless Chargers from various brands that I used with my S7 Edge and all worked great. Now that I have the S8+ only one of them works. Why that one - I have no idea. But the other 5 do not work regardless of charging adapter or cord I use. The standard...

They are all different styles and 5 different brands. Actually only 1 of the 6 works. The other 5 do not. I tried them all with the same power cord/charger then switched it up to see if it had anything to do with the power supply (all Quick Charge though) and that did not seem to be the issue...

It may not work with every FAST wireless charger... I have 6 that I used withe S7 Edge that worked great, but 4 of them do not work with the S8+ for no obvious reason....

I have had the S7 Edge for the last year. Because I love fast wireless charging, over that time I collected 6 different Fast Wireless Qi Chargers. They all worked great with the S7 Edge. However, in testing them with my new S8+, ONLY two of them work. The other 4 do not work. Instead it...

Just an FYI - I had about 6 Fast Wireless Charging stands/pads that I used with my S7 Edge - everyone of them worked perfectly. However, with this new S8+ phone, only 2 of the 6 work. The other ones give an error where they go into a loop saying "Fast Wireless Charging" then immediately...

I agree that the S8+ is not a "big" of an upgrade over the S7Edge as maybe I've been used to in upgrading phones in the past. There are a a few little things and the upgraded hardware should make for a better overall experience, but this is not a huge upgrade really plus I've had some issues...

Have same issue. Never had this issue before with S7 Edge and was not rooted. The permission just doesn't stay like it should.

Works great for me except that I'm using it on a tablet that is permanently mounted in landscape and it only shows in portrait so it's sideways...

Hello - is there a step-by-step set of instructions for TaskS2? I'm having a hard time figuring out how to have a favorites list. When I open the app I see "Menu" at the top and then my list of Tasker Tasks (actually, not all of them because I have around 100 Task on my phone and it appears I...

Coming from a Droid Turbo, Moto's AOD was awesome. Always showed me the time and icons for any notifications - if I wanted more info, I tapthe notification and get a peek (still on AOD) at the info, then could open my phone directly to that app by dragging up. In contrast, I find Samsung's AOD...

Not sure where that "little paper" is from, but the activation fee IF you want to activate the watch is $20 ($40 is for activating a phone). The Monthly fee to add the watch to your plan is $5 + taxes/fees (so probably $8/month). And you can terminate it at any time. (Again the $350 early...

I'd say battery life is fairly good. I don't tweak settings to "make up" for lack of battery so I have wifi, bluetooth, & gps always on. Location services always on. Pretty much all the extra stuff on. On a typical day of use, my battery is low once I get home from work (10-12 hours) and will...

I've been having this issue as well - it happens when I'm not on a call and unfortunately when I am, which really sucks. Have had my car for a long time with many different phones so definitely not the car. Gonna try the bluetooth share tip from above - hopefully, that fixes it.

When I'm in my car and my phone is connected to my car's bluetooth, it occasionally disconnects for no reason. It happens sometimes when I'm not on a call and has also happened twice in the last two days when on a call (not very cool). I've had my car for 5 years and gone through several...

Still waiting for my Gear S2 to arrive, but considering I'm a huge tasker guy, this got me way more excited than I was before! Now if you can just create a similar thing that would send commands to Alexa (the Amazon Echo Home Automation Hub), I'd be set! :) Thanks for your work - this will...

You can also check out Conjure which is a similar app that works well and has a widget. But like Mitko76 said installing Nova and using the activities shortcut gives you a lot of options!

I put a super thin clear spigen case on mine. Definitely one of those rare instances where the case actually improves the phone because I was having the same issue with my palm touching the edge and launching stuff. It still happens occasionally, but much rarer now and the case makes the phone...

I finally got around to doing this on my 8013. Everything went smoothly and overall the tablet seems to be running smooth.... Except I do have two issues.... Tablet does not seem able to detect 5ghz WiFi signal, only the 2.4. Not a huge deal, but the 5ghz is a little faster and would prefer...

Okay, so I've read the last 10-15 pages of the thread, but still have some questions before I decide to go for Lollipop or not: As background, I rooted my Memo Pad via RootZenFone method many updates ago (I think I was on .180 or .182 at the time) - since then I've gone through 2-3 updates and...

So what's the final word on the Lollipop update? Will it remove root. I rooted several updates ago via RootZenFone method and all has been good - the last several KitKat updates went off without a hitch (I unfroze all system apps before updating), but I know an update to an entirely new OS like...

Just to confirm Wanna make sure I got all this right before I jump in... In post one there is what I think is the Official Samsung KK update for the GT-N8010 to be downloaded and installed on the GT-N8013 per these instructions: Installing ROM Requires a Factory Reset (Wipe) Thanks to pre4speed...

After combing through countless forums and threads on here, it's become apparent that updating to a custom ROM while generally being a good thing still comes with potential problems. On the other hand, I don't really wanna keep my Note on the super old JB ROM that Sammy decided to leave us...

Yep, I went on search for and found these exist. Personally, I decided I prefer to use a standard car dock and plug my phone into a quick charge car charger so I can turbo charge my phone while I'm driving. But if you're looking for a way to NOT have to plug your phone into a wire every time...

Working great for me Still loving my Onite Quick Charge Car Charger - I added a YouTube video review (and unboxing) for anyone who wants a closer look at it: https://youtu.be/LMUCoRUbKyc

So one of the best things about the Turbo is the Turbo Charging. I wanted to be able to do this in my car, but there was no Car Turbo Charger on Motorola's website. Eventually found out that they don't make one, but other companies do. After looking on Amazon, found this guy...

I don't know because I never considered that as a realistic option for my uses.

Be sure to join the official Motorola Website forums and post your complaint/concern. I think it may be the only place Moto's powers that be look to see what needs to be improved. But yeah, it's very annoying. Based on my experience so far, though there are many things I love about this...

Haha - nope, it was bound to happen. It's just sporadic as far as how long it takes before it stops working.

Nope - it doesn't work! It is a biggie for me because I use a 7" Anroid Tablet in my car as my infotainment system. Via Tasker I have my phone turn on hotspot anytime it connects to my car's Bluetooth and turn it off when it disconnects from car. Worked great on my old S3. Now with the Droid...

I know some people only use Hotspot here and there or not at all, but I use HotSpot every day for my Android Car Tablet, so I noticed right away after taking the update that HotSpot stopped working. HotSpot is initiated and shows a WiFi HotSpot. Devices can connect to the WiFi Hotspot...

I noticed that Llama stopped working for me too after the update. I have not enabled Advanced Calling and my phone is definitely detecting local 1x Antennas as I can see under Settings > About Phone > Status > Network type and strength. However, Llama can not seem to detect any towers at all...

Great to know the update doesn't change root. Just to double-check, I haven't removed any system apps or bloatware, but I disabled/froze a ton of them using Link2SD. Do I need to unfreeze them before taking the update or does that not matter so long as they are still installed? Thanks.

New update out 12/15/14 - Keep root? Got a notification today of a new firmware update for this tablet. Want to make sure I keep root. Wondering if anyone has taken the update and can confirm keeping root and what is needed to do so. Thanks.

New Update out - Keep Root? Just got a notification of new firmware today (12/15/14) and wondering if anyone has taken it and been able to keep root and by what method?

Thanks for the info!

I never had an issue with Battery drain leaving Wifi on all the time, but I did just root mine on .191 using the rootzenphone app. Followed instructions - it worked with no issues. I then used the list a few posts back and froze almost all the crapware pre-loaded by asus. Now my battery life...

Doh!!! That's what i feared but was hoping i was wrong. thanks for the reply.

Downgrade to Original Build? So, if I wanted to downgrade my firmware to the original (161 I think) how would I do that? I looked around but couldn't find any instructions. Got the firmware zip file from Asus. There's also an ADB Driver and Kernel Codes available there. Their website...

Have had this tablet for a couple of months and been debating rooting. Overall, for what I'm using it for (dedicated in-car "infotainment" tablet) I don't need many root features like I might on a phone. But the one thing I would like to do if possible is increase performance possibly by...

FYI - So I found another bug related to this same issue. Besides 3rd Party Apps (Tasker, Widgetsoid, Llam, basically any app that toggles settings) not being able to turn WiFi off, IF they are used to turn it on then turning it off inside settings will not automatically turn Wifi back on as it...

I came from an S3 too. I can say there may be a few Samsung tweaks that you'll miss. Sometimes Samsung goes overboard, but they also ADD features and options that stock Android doesn't have. But other than that and one bug that's driving me crazy, this is one amazingly awesome phone. I've...

So I'm a big Tasker user and I use a 7" Android Tablet in my car as my "infotainment system." I have a Tasker profile that when connected to my Car's Bluetooth, turns on Wifi Hotspot and upon disconnection, turns off Wifi hotspot. I noticed that HotSpot was turning on without a problem, but...

My Original HTC Droid Incredible served me well but I haven't used it for 2 years and need to return it to stock for a trade in promo on the new Droid Turbo. I am running a mostly stock custom ROM - obviously I am rooted and unlocked with a custom recovery and I believe S-Off. What exactly is...

Ultralight tags should work without a problem. They are either Type 1 or Type 2 tags. Also newer tags - NTAG213, NTAG215, NTAG216 will work and the 216 variant has high memory...if you can find them for sale.

Hey Steve - Just a quick update. My tablet had a software update and after that the DC icon seems to be working fine. Maybe it has something to do with the update or maybe it has nothing to do with that and I just needed to restart my tablet after installing DC for that to work. Anyway, it...

LOL - Yeah, I can be a devs best friend or worst nightmare, depending on the perspective - but it's one of the things I do well - look at something as it is and come up with a dozen ways to make it better. :) As for the disappearing floating DC icon to get back to it, still happens. The app is...

First Thoughts, Requests, & Suggestions Just bought a 7" Asus Tablet to use solely as my car "infotainment" system and had seen DC a couple of months ago so was eager to give it a go. Installed fine and is working on my tablet. After testing it out a lot, here are my thoughts/suggestions...
