    3 years on

    I haven't been here for a while as my phone isn't rooted, I don't see how I can help much, but I would be interested in people's thoughts about how their phones are 3 years on. I'm not particularly happy with mine, it's slow, notifications hang sometimes for half a minute or more before...

    Ugly battery icon gone!

    Just a heads up. Thanks to Good Lock and Multistar apps from the Galaxy store you can get split screen functionality back on your Note 8,and as a bonus for me that stupid battery icon in the status bar can be removed. Yey.

    WiFi sign in

    I was at a beach down Coquina and tried to connect to WiFi, failed, and now my phone tries to auto connect to Cable WiFi sign in page every time it detects a known WiFi. How do I stop it defaulting to a sign in page that I know I'm no where near.

    Favourite apps that run on the Note 8

    Caffeinate is free in the app store, and a very useful little app that doesn't ask for a ton of permissions there is no possible reason for. It appears in the drop down shade and one press keeps the screen on for the allotted time, say, 5 mins. One more press, 10, 15 and so on for up to 1...

    Samsung SnapBiz Card

    Word of warning folks. I was prompted to download Samsung SnapBiz Card for some reason and as soon as was done, the app shared everything in my profile with everybody in my contacts who also uses the app. I thought that emergency contact details would be kept secret as I did blood type etc...

    Help Ugly battery icon

    Does anyone know how to get rid of the battery icon without rooting? Exposed Installer means rooting, most apps mean using overlays that are even uglier than what we have now. Rooting means Knox is compromised, and online banking won't work.

    Camera Question

    Is there anyway I can turn the screen controls off while taking a picture? I wanted to take underwater shots in a rockpool and after setting the camera up found myself doing finger gymnastics to set the shot up whilst trying not to touching the screen!

    Gallery filters

    Can I curate the contents of my picture gallery to diplay just my camera DCIM, or is the only solution to delete album art to stop it displaying in the gallery?

    Root If I root?

    If I root, can I still use banking apps? I'm guessing Knox is dependant on the rom I choose, but I remember from when I last rooted a phone (many many moons ago) that online banking was no longer available because of root.
