I could be, Heywood Jabloame, or they could set it so I can make changes to settings without it telling me I can't as the name is already taken.
Maunder changed the popup thingy for me but removed my bold and italic settings and I can't get them back.

No but I've seen his brother Eric.

It's a big family, as their younger brother Yorick was telling me the other day.

And all are in third grade, as it looks. But ok, you forgot uncle Richard, also known as 'Tricky' Dick.

Your training period is almost, but not quite, over.
Another 24 years should do it.
Congrats.

After 50 years, you reach the age of discretion. The years before that are know as the years of indiscretion!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

My old note 4 finally gave up the ghost and turned tits up on me recently, as they discontinued the note line of products due to an over enthusiastic battery I got me an S8+.
They say it has the same screen space due to the screen going all the way to the bevel BUT if you have great fat fingers like mine you end up randomly starting an app whenever you pick it up. And some apps look really weird when the screen disappears off into infinity at the edge.
There is one issue I find annoying - the music app randomly starts playing, walking along the street and Spotify start up while the phone is in my pocket. Spotify got chucked and moved to Play Music but did not put an icon on the front screen - can't blame accidental launching.
A couple of days later I'm in a meeting and the bloody music starts playing, play Music got removed from the phone with prejudice.
After ratting around the interwebs I have come to the conclusion that it may be driven by the bluetooth on the phone - but I don't have bluetootht turned on, weird.
I'm convinced that the phone activates the default music app when tickled by a bluetooth connection, even if bluetooth is not enabled.
Still it is a nice shiny new phone so I'll keep it and hope Samsung fix the issue. It does make a nice ereader.

Sorry wrong Mycroft - read a classic SciFi the Moon is a Harsh Mistress by RAH, that is where the reference is actually from. Oh and yeah he pinched it from the original.

Samsung is good at hardware - I mean only at hardware.
All software I know from Samsung is crappy. Thats why I can resist to get a phone frome them. 
Press F1 for help or google it.

It turns on whenever they decide you are supposed to hear music. Didn't you realize that?
Want to keep it (and yourself) from their mind control?
Wrap device/phone in metal foil. Michael Faraday new this was coming, long ago, and gave us a means to protect ourselves. Are you willing to listen . . . ?

Well turning on not so bad, annoying yes, but at least no work gets lost
as compared to another product that shuts down when 'they' decide
and then they have the cheek to press release that they do it because they know better then you, I mean it's only your work: insignificant to them they've got a mega billion dollar company to think about.

Glitchy products is the reason I swore off all things Samsung. For my newest phone, I went with a LG G6[^]. Still getting used to it but I can say this, the fingerprint scanner on the back was actually a good idea. You can unlock the phone while you pick it up without any unnatural movements.
