Virus pop up - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Has anyone ever got a pop up from Google about your phone being infected? I just got one while browsing the forum. I've only had the phone for 1 day and really only been on this website. I took a screenshot of the pop up

This is a spam popup. Your fine.

Gotcha thanks for the quick response. Ive got then on plenty of phones and always wondered if it is legit of not. Thanks

My Verizon App Missing?

I usually check once a week to see if the My Verizon app has been updated, but I cannot find it... I am on Ginger Remix so maybe I can't see it because of that? Can someone with froyo check?

I am completely stock and havent been able to find it for several days. I am guessing it has been updated in the market as not being available for the Thunderbolt since it did not work on our phone anyway.
Droid-life.com has a working version.

The salient question is why would Verizon block owners of their flagship phone (okay, maybe the Droid Charge is that now, with the "Droid" branding") from the app at all, let alone for so long. Damn phone's been on the market for 10 weeks now and still no TB-compatible MyVerizon app. Very weird.
Look here at Post #6. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14277108
The release is a verizon apk, however they have not released it because they do not want LTE users usage to be changed by having their current usage easily accessible. It will help them price out the tiered plans that we are getting this summer.

Well its not compatible based on their laziness. So it is easier to hide it because some people don't read.

Uhm no... Usage is just as easily accessible without the app. The same number of steps as if you are checking on WiFi. From what I have read it works on the other 4G devices but the bolt. If they are doing what you are saying then they should not have theirs working either.

[Q] Android-Sale.com

Hi everybody.
I'm a little concerned about this website as I recently bought a N7100+ (fake Samsung Galaxy Note II) from the store.. I got given a code for my phone to track it... Of course being an impatient bast__d I went straight to the ww. ems. com. cn / english .html(spaces because I'm a "spamming noob") website to find this message appears when I put my code in (my code is EE750295474CN) "No tracking information for the shipment, or overdue tracking." To be brief I then sent a message to the company and got a response being "Sorry for the inconvenience.The post just delay updating information.please try again 2-3 days later.Thanks"
Two days later I try again.. Same damn thing. I try to get another reply. Exact same response.
If anyone else would like to try my code then please do. It might just be me that it doesn't work with. Sorry this post is sOO long winded.
I have looked at the other thread just to be clear and it didn't help me as I'm an idiot and already bought from the site.
Pretty sure there's already a thread about this site.

Yes, there is but not about the tracking code. Plus this is about my own order as well. Not just the site itself, sorry if it's not that clear.

Sorry that your not clear about searching before posting. Mods look down on those that makes "help me on my problem, despite a thread with the same subject is already made, but I rather make clutter cause I'm lazy and inconsidetant". Someone already made a thread complaining about this site. Your complaint should of went in that thread, not a new thread, just for your specific problem.

I did of course look at that thread and being aware it's locked down I decided to create one of my own. Basic question I don't see that it's going against any regulations, this isn't a question about if I should be allowed this post it's a valid question. If you want me to delete then I will. I just thought somebody may be able to help. And again I am sorry for not making my thread clear enough.

Edge Panels/Feeds

Since the Samsung Galaxy App Store is horrible when it comes to finding what you are looking for I'm making this OP to discuss/share Edge panels/feeds. If you have one that you find useful, or jsut want tot alk about them feel free to post below. I would like to see what types of extra functionality we can get from the edge besides media controls and other small things (edge feed)
I'm looking to try new things ones assuming there are more than the half dozen or so on the Galaxy App Store. I would like a edge feed for Google news, or maybe Google fit of possible.
I have there already a question. I saw in some Videos about the Phone a Football App but i couldnt find one on my own. Is there something like this?

That's also a possibility. I checked the Galaxy App Store and it doesn't have the Yahoo panels, so maybe someone could pull the files for you from their phone? If you know how I can do it, but this is my first Samsung phone in a long time

What carrier? Many of the U.S. carriers delete and/or add pre-installed apps. Especially Verizon. Might want to search on Yahoo and see if you can find anything.
Got the phone this morning and here are my thoughts on the Edge...
I'm coming from an LG G3 which is the same size screen but because of the Edge the Samsung screen is definitely small but I guess it makes the phone narrower too.
Now, on to the Edge panels...
Why are there only 5 spots for contacts when you can have two columns for other things?
My feeling is the Edge panels are just a gimmick as I have been using an app called SwipePad for years and it gives me short-cuts at a swipe and very customisable too with add ons.

The question you'd have to ask were you approved to start with. Also check your all section to see if you have updates. I noticed sometimes updates never show up on the update section since the S6

I say Hi Bixby and it answers but every time I say a command I have to unlock the phone. I saw it said I could change it but... the box disappeared too quickly.

I haven't figured that out, either. Really needs to work from locked screen. Maybe trusted in the same way we can trust a paired bluetooth device.
