    Signal strength in Europe vs USA

    I was just in France and Switzerland using my S7 from Verizon. I was amazed at how strong the signals were everywhere, even inside large buildings - hotels, on a river boat, on a 7,000 feet mountain and on the train. I do use WiFi calling due to the bad signal here. But, in my house, I only get...

    Signal strength for voice

I get messages easily, but voice calls are constantly dropping ... especially in the basement. I tried the Verizon Network Extender, but it loused up my wireless network. With...

    Email question

    The S5 (Lollipop) had a setting in email where I could delete the email from the phone without taking it off the server. I don't see that option in Marshmallow. Anyone know anything that will help?

    difference in camears?

    I just got 2 S7s. There is a noticeable difference in the tone of pictures between the two. All the settings are exactly the same. But, one seems a bit brighter than the other. Anyone else see this in their comparisons?

    Moved from S5 and S4 to S7

    I picked them up yesterday (4/15/16). So far everything is looking great. I had a bit of a heat problem, but was working the phone quite hard with updating apps, contacts (ringtones mostly), configuring the look and a few other things. Really looking forward to using these guys. Any suggestions...

    Service?

    Am I the only one who thinks the service at U. S. Cellular is slipping a great deal? I have also noticed a severe reduction in activity at their local stores. Their new ads promoting getting G4 LTE "way out here" are ridiculous. I get no service in northern Wisconsin around a lake where my...
