Sprint S8+ Forum - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

It looks like XDA created separate forums for the carriers, at least I discovered the one for Sprint users.

I just checked (again) and the link is working for me on my PC, have you tried cutting and pasting the link?

Here's a link the the Verizon S8 forum. There's a different forum for the 8+ https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s8

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?
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
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.

XDA Free, XDA Premium, Tapatalk and Tapatalk PRO all have trouble connecting to the forum for me as of a couple of days ago. I thought I was the only one. But it seems to work better on data than WiFi. You can get the forum to load of you keep refreshing the app. Unfortunately, we will have to use our PCs until then.. I'm lucky I was able to connect now.

I get failed to connect to forum please contact forum administrator along those lines. It seems to be getting slightly better but it still bad. If I keep refreshing a lot I can load the pages.. But it sucks because I know it's not on our side, almost certainly with XDA. I changed my IP just in case by spoofing my Mac on my router but still nothing. Other forums work well. It's unfortunately a big problem that only a handful of us are experiencing. Waiting game til someone hears our cries for help I suppose.

Thank you good sir. Didn't know that was there even after looking I'll admit. So it seems like a lot of other people are having the same problem. It definitely makes dealing with something easier when you're not the only one and saves from having to troubleshoot.
Edit : can confirm its something between XDA and our ISPs.
The problem I described happens on Xfinity Comcast Internet.
However, the problem does not occur at all on LTE T-Mobile.

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.

Ditto here for XDA SMH! That's the main app that I use Tapa for like most of you I'm sure. It's a pain to type out an entire reply just for the app to say you don't have permission. The "no results" in my subscribed threads list had gotta be the most frustrating issue.
Perhaps XDAs database is too large for Tapa. All other forums I go to load everything rather fast. The few things that I currently can get to load via Tapa on XDA take a dramatical longer time to load up. I hope that I can even post this reply *fingers crossed*....
NOPE! Had to open the trust Chrome browser to even post this.

My thoughts exactly. I'm no it sure what a site has to do to maintain Tapatalk functionality but it's probably easier for site devs to focus on less platforms.

Help needed - App Testing [Easy DND]

Hi guys
I made this app which is currently in Beta. I've had a lot of downloads and I received two emails recently, one to say the app does not work on the S8, and the other to say the app does not work on the Note 8. So I tested my app on the Samsung Remote Test Lab and it seems to be working fine on the S8. So I am a little bemused.
I then thought of asking the S8 forum for help. If you are on Android Pie, could you please try the app and let me know if it does what it is supposed to?
For more info, the XDA thread is: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-easy-dnd-disturb-beta-release-t3917437
The Playstore link is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.strangerweather.easydnd
Needless to say it's a free app. If you could post your findings in this thread I would be very grateful! Cheers!
It works fine on s8 and s8+.
