[Q] Unable to answer phone calls on lockscreen p905 - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I own a P905 and when a person calls my phone, the touch screen is unresponsive. I used to face this with my Galaxy Note 10.1 sometimes and I could just simply sleep then wake the tablet and I am able to answer the call. However, this does not work on this tablet. Is there a fix for this? It's annoying to have to unlock the phone and then wait for that person to call again. I am on stock with the latest updates and rooted. I prefer not to use the home button to answer the phone call.

How did you use the tablet as a phone? I don't have the phone app on my tablet.

Same thing happened to me about a year ago. After unsuccessfully following my providers recommendations, they sent me a new SIM card. That did the trick. However, the problem seems to be recurring. Interestingly, my wife has the identical phone and is not having any problems with it. So the root problems may be organic only to my phone, or perhaps with an app I'm using.

[Q] I've got a big Galaxy Tab 2 10" phone, now what?

Hopefully this isn't a double post, I have searched the Gtab 2 threads.
My P5100 can place GSM calls. Are every other P5100 tabs the same?
Mine is a European version. It was an extremely pleasant surprise when I found out that I have a big 10" phone. Of course, I have a SIM with voice options, I have tried it.
I am using the tab as a phone only for backup, when the cell phone is not around. I have 3G data on same SIM and use it when on the move.
I had a P7500 and a P7300, and only P6800 (the last Samsung that I had) was able to place GSM calls. I like this P5100 tab already.
That must be so nice. I wish i could stick a sim in mine.
Hows the call quality? Sms works, right?
Everything works as in a normal phone. I have heard that not all Galaxy Tabs 2nd version have GSM phone call option.
I like the idea of a big phone. It's not that I ditched my cell phone, but like in a car that has more airbags, it's good that it exists.

Verizon Gear S2 3g

Hey everyone. Picked one up today with the cancelation of the Urbane. If you have any questions let me know. I will try my best to answer them.
Also, for anyone who has one already is there a browser? I did a Google search and came across a shady website for UC browser for gear. Did anyone try it or use a different one?
no browser at this point
would you really want to browse the web on this thing??
I can't seem to find YouTube notifications. Is there a way? Also, is there anyway to auto call forward when disconnect from the phone?? Thanks.

in the Gear app on your phone, go to settings/call forwarding/turn on and set it up there
as far as youtube notifications, there isnt a built in way to get youtube notificiations at this point

Thanks. I see in the settings where I can turn it on and off manually but not an option when if I am disconnected from my phone it will auto turn on.
I guess an easy fix for the notifications is to turn on email notifications for youtube.

for me, it seems to automatically switch to "solo" mode once I am far enough away from the phone, so I get calls made to my phone on the watch, and calls made directly to the watch as well..
Can you pair the Verizon Gear S2 3G with another phone not on the Verizon network? I know you would buy the phone at Verizon and set it up initially on that account, but could you then pair with a non-Verizon phone. I use a Verizon phone personally and a US Cellular phone for work and would like to pair the watch with my US Cellular work phone.
it can only be paired to one phone at a time, and, I would guess that when paired to the US cellular phone, you wouldnt get things like call forwarding and anything cellular related to work
Is the Verizon version using number sharing? Are you sharing your phones # with the watch or are you getting a separate number for the watch?
The T-Mobile version obviously you get a second number for the watch. You can use separate carriers to mix and match your phone/watch setup. I have a work phone that is set up on Verizon. My family is on a T-Mobile plan. I added a $5 smart device to my family plan last year when I had the original Gear S. I have since upgraded my Gear S to the S2 4G model. All calls are forwarded from my Verizon phone to the T-Mobile Gear S2. It also works great as a standalone device when needed.

I had to get another number but sync my phone number to my watch through BT or Remote connect.

Thanks for the answer, so you can have a phone on one Carrier and have your Gear S2 on a different carrier. I have done this with my original Gear S and now my Gear S2. The Gear Manager software really just does a seamless forward of your calls and text to your other phone number which happens to be your watch. It doesn't care what network it just sends to a number.
would it be possible to buy this off amazon or something then use it as just a bluetooth/ wifi watch? Because i want the bigger battery and the GPS but don't want to take the calls on my watch.
Yes you can, that's what I do, but updates are still coming from Verizon, that means they come months after everyone else

Disabling Hands Free Activation

I recently purchased an unlocked SM-930P (sprint variant) Galaxy S7. I was able to get it activated through AT&T by setting up the APN and everything currently works great. The only problem I have is that whenever I power on my phone the Hands Free Activation attempts to activate my phone even though this won't work. Is there a way to turn off the HFA? It's annoying having it pop up every time I reboot my phone.

Sorry for not responding sooner. I use my phone using ATT LTE data.

How can I remove the + sign on outgoing/incoming calls?

Hey everyone! I just bought myself a Verizon Note 5 (SM-N920V) and I bought an unlock code in order to use a prepaid service here in the USA. My Cricket sim card works fine (Data, calls, etc). The only issue is that every time I do an outcall, there is a plus sign (+) that automatically appears after I press the green call button. Same thing with incoming calls. It is an issue because it does not recognize my already saved contacts on incoming and when I do an outgoing call, it thinks I'm doing a international call because of the + sign which is a hassle. Is there a way I can permanently remove this from the system? Thanks.

You didn't even need to buy any unlock code for the Verizon variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 because ALL Verizon variants are already sim unlocked so you got ripped off!! Check and see if there's an update for the phone using Smart Switch on a Windows computer..

Yea. I know. It's okay. It was only $10. I updated it using Smart Switch a couple of days ago and it still gives me that plus sign.

Try downgrading then back to Lollipop. If that doesn't work then I don't know what to tell you without root access..

Alright I understand. Can you provide me with the way to root the device? Maybe sending me a link to the instructions? How would I remove the plus sign even after I root? Do you think installing CM or a custom made ROM is better than a the default?

Lol!! That's not going to happen on the Verizon variant phone! There's no root access as of yet or CM.. You're basically stuck. Don't ever buy Verizon for that matter.
