[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Themes and Apps] stakzz00:
OnCircle is one of my favorite new features by Samsung. It allows you to converse and send little quick messages and pictures to other OnCircle members. The OnCircle feature is quite like IMessage and FaceTime, but it lacks a ton of features. Even though it is still in it's early age it's definitely a feature Samsung will look to improve with the new S7 variants and the soon to come Note 6.

While there are only a few of us using OnCircle, there are major problems constricting others from using the feature. These problems are on both Samsung side and the carriers side. If your carrier supports Enhanced Messaging and you still have issues using OnCircle then it's due to either a Samsung Update or you might have either changed your phone number or had your phone unlocked/switched carriers.

Here is a manual way to fix it, I've talked to Samsung and they're working on implementing this into an update/app so that if you have OnCircle issues it will automatically fix it like a Macro...

Anyone with any variant of the s6 or s7 and Note 5 can use OnCircle. The problem is is that there are a few bugs preventing it from working... I believe you must have people Edge for any device other than the 3 Edged devices to use OnCircle but i may be wrong. There is an App for less than $2 on the playstore to add People Edge to the Note 5 and S6.

1. To test first go ahead and save your own number as a contact and go to MyPeople and see if you pop up. If you do then that means your OnCircle is working fine and the others either does not or doesn't have a compatible device...

2. If you do not pop up on MyPeople go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging and turn it on if it was off go ahead and try to do the step 1 test if it was on/ still will not work continue to step 3

3. Go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging>Registered Information and make sure all options are checked and test out step 1 again if it fails them go to step 4

4. Go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging>Registered Information>More>Deregister Phone Number...

Then re-register it and once it's registered go ahead and turn on all the required settings like Enhanced Messaging, Profile Sharring, OnCircle etc... then test out step 1 again and it should work this time, if not reboot and try again and if still no go then your carrier does not support Enhanced Messaging. Try modifying your APN, for instance i cannot use Enhanced Messaging with a Simple Mobile APN so i use the T-Mobile APN which works perfectly...

***Profile Sharing allows you to be found by other contacts that have OnCircle only if you both have each other saved as contacts (you can modify these settings) but just like IMessage and FaceTime, your profile data is hosted on samsungs server so go to Contacts>MyProfile and make sure you share only the information you want, and even if you don't share your address, samsung will still have it on their servers so if privacy is your issue, don't fill out this information, and check to see if it was autofilled by your Samsung Account.

If you would like to add me on OnCircle and test out the features, send me a message on Skype and I'll be willing to add more friends to my very very low count of 2 OnCircle Friends, (one's myself).

Feature Request for Samsung:

1. Allow us to have a profile ID to share with others so that we don't have to give out our phone numbers to converse over OnCircle

2. Add more features, video calling, OnCircle Messaging App with cool features

3. Send songs and mp3s and other large files to OnCircle contacts through the Samsung Server rather than Enhanced Messaging

4. Live Straming service for OnCircle Friends and allow others to join via a Web based interface or an app via a private key

5. The Draw abd Send feature is really bad, even if someone spells out a word letter by letter it's still hard to read.

6. Screen Capture and share feature so that we can help each other.

7. Phone number Scanning: if we turn on the Feature, OnCircle will automatically use your phone number and email to add certain profiles to your OnCircle profile, example: Twitter, Whatsapp, Skype, Snapchat etc. I'd like share my social media accounts rather than my phone number.

8. Alarm Share: If both users have it enabled, allow them to share alarms and Callander Events through OnCircle so that someone can make that another person has their Alarm set for work etc. And add a setting that will let you choice that either you need to confirm the Alarm addition/change or it will auto accept depending on the person and time.

Thank you.
