    I that a reliable trustworthy site?

    It has decent but not brilliant reviews, it definitely is a real site. I think you'll get the Asian retail version which might not have a warranty in Europe

    You should create shortcuts on your homepage.
    For example, open http://touch.boards.ie in chrome, "then to the right of the webaddress you will see the 3 dot menu. Select this menu, followed by "Add to Home screen"

    Why do they put the option on the bottom rather than the top right?
    The m.independent.ie do the same!

    I bought this one.

    Supposed to work with the S7 too. This is the exact one Vodafone are giving away with the S7 pre-orders.

    I purchased your one yesterday but came across this today and pulled the trigger on it. Hoping the seller of your one can cancel and refund as it hasn't been shipped. My ones are selling out.

    I'm hoping it's something like this. There is also like you said a standing one.

    Has anyone got any links for a deal on s7 edge SIM free?
    Thanks in advance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,101 ✭✭✭GustavoFring


    Anyone getting random restarts? I thought I was imagining it but every so often it asks me my pin for the fingerprint unlock and the SD card notification is there. Only one has it asked for a pin. I haven't seen it happen but it's definitely everyday at least b

    Stopped using Nova after a few days but it seems to be happening too often for my liking recently. I'll so if there's an update in the offing and if that doesn't sort it I'll send it back.

    Yes! I have been getting restarts since day one. haven't had the chance to send it back yet. Download reboots monitor, mine has restarted 32 times since yesterday. Do you get any horizontal multicoloured line when it freezes before a restart?

    Bought this beauty of a machine last Saturday, love it. Finding the battery great, about 1.5 days I reckon.... not too sure about the Always on Display feature yet.... I'll give it a few more days to see if it grows on me..... In the market for case/protection as I was very lucky on Sunday when it actually slipped and fell - luckily the only damage was numerous scratches on the original film the phone comes with... So what would people recommend to buy?

    I'm using the Galaxy S7 edge S-View Flip Cover and the screen is scratched already. You have to have the phone at a certain angle to see it but I notice them :( I wouldn't recommend it.

    Didn't want to bother with a screen protector until a good tempered glass cover comes out. Regret it now.

    Just downloaded it. I havent noticed it do anything - it's just it asks for the pin and shows the notification that an sd card has been mounted. I'll monitor it over the next few days.

    I have an otterbox for it - too bit and slippery.

    S-View Cover - too awkward in use.

    Speck Candyshell - best of the lot so far, grippy and slim.

    Ordered the original Samsung leather one this morning. Wanted the brown leather one but had to go with black in the end. This wont offer as much protection but will be fine in work when it spends most of the time on my desk.

    I also have a tempered glass screen protector on mine - dust gets caught under the corners but nothing a quick rinse under the tap wont remove. I do think the edges of the screen can be a bit slow to react when pressed due to it though.

    Has anyone upgraded to this handset with 3? What kind of funds were they asking you shell out? They have offered pretty meagre upgrades in the past, so come September I'm wondering if it might be worth getting or waiting further for something like the Note 6.
