“The Samsung Galaxy J1 is a very decent device for 109 Euros, which leaves a good impression in many important areas. The chassis is very sturdy and you can hardly differentiate it from more expensive Galaxy models. The rear cover can also be detached, which gives you access to the replaceable battery as well as the microSD slot. Another highlight are the low emissions and the excellent battery runtimes. None of the comparison devices can keep up with the stamina of the Galaxy J1. Otherwise, the performances are often average. The handling could be smoother overall, the signal quality was not very good in the review and the there is also room for improvements in respect of the voice quality. The main camera takes decent snapshots under good lighting conditions and there is not much criticism for the display, either.”

Bluetooth stereo receiver to PC

I am wanting to make a makeshift jukebox to put in my 40' x 40' shop. I have an Onkyo TX-NR636 and I want to play Pandora / Spotify / Amazon Music and local files from a Windows 10 PC that doesn't have built-in bluetooth. Most of the USB BT adapters I am seeing have a range up to 30' ish, what do y'all recommend for either an internal BT adapter or USB BT adapter. The PC is older hardware without USB 3.0

Its not accidently going on hold. It is happening on most calls.

I'm in live chat now with Samsung. They referred me to Telstra after trying some things and the network is fine on their end so back to waiting on Samsung. Why cant I just buy a new phone and have it working properly.

Hi Cheryle. While you're on a call, is the screen black? Cause if it's not, maybe you're just accidentally putting the call on hold.

That I'm not sure. As I always said, it may be just to keep the cost of production lower.

First try to conect your Samsung Galaxy J1 to computer via usb cable in MTP mode. If you can't transfer files in that way, try coolmuster android assistant. It helps you transfer filles between Samsung Galaxy J1 and pc easily.

Hi Philosophaie. Simply connect your phone to PC using a USB cable. Once connected, check the USB notification on your phone and choose either USB storage or Media MTP. A drive should show up on your PC after doing that.

Hi Ana. Make sure you entered the correct password and also ask the Wi-Fi owner if they set any MAC filtering. If they setup MAC filtering, you may need to ask the owner to include you on the whitelist.

Go to Settings > About phone > Software update. If there's no available update to download, then there's no official Lollipop update for your phone. What you can do is install a Lollipop rom.

Hi geethusunil. Usually, a simple restart gets you out of safe mode. Please do that.
