    Solved battery problem now have Bluetooth problem

    I ordered a new BT headset because I wasn't sure what was causing my battery problem. It turned out to be fitness monitor I had. That's off and the battery is playing nice. Unfortunately, the new BT headset (Plantronics plt_m180) will pair but won't allow phone audio, just media audio and...

    No nougat and my phone is getting really hot!

    My battery is running down really fast - like I'm lucky if I get 5 hours when it used to go nearly all day and it's getting really hot sometimes. I bought a replacement battery, but I'm chickening out doing the install. A) it's hella complicated and 2) I did this with a Nexus 4 and it didn't...

    How and from where do you sideload? Speaking as a complete n00b of course. LT

    Having trouble with the stock camera app, can I get some help?

    Re: Having trouble with the stock camera app I went to Motorola's website and they seem willing to sent me a replacement under warranty. They'll even send me a replacement first and for $25 and then decide if the repair is going to cost me or not. I'm very surprised at this as I'm not the...

    Having trouble with the stock camera app, can I get some help?

    Re: Having trouble with the stock camera app I tried 'a better camera' and it also lost focus after awhile of video-ing, so I suppose my problem is hardware not software. Thanks for all your help LT

    Having trouble with the stock camera app, can I get some help?

    Re: Having trouble with the stock camera app I think so as the video before the unfocussing is fine. But I'll give it a swipe anyway. Thanks LT

    Having trouble with the stock camera app, can I get some help?

    Having trouble with the stock camera app I have an N6 that I bought used a few months ago. It's currently running 6.0.1. Today, I was taking some video outdoors using the stock app and the camera would go out of focus for no reason. Sometimes when I focused on something in the distance, it...

    How hard is it to replace the battery in an N4?

    News Flash: The new battery may be having problems. The phone is hot and it's discharging quickly. So, it looks like I'm going back to the stock battery, unless I can find another one somewhere quickly. Boohoo Z

    How hard is it to replace the battery in an N4?

    I replaced the battery in my N4 last weekend and it's doing much better. I actually did not have to charge it during the day yesterday. When I went to bed, it was at 13%, but hey, that's better than zero. All in all, I think it was worthwhile. I bought the batteries from Amazon seller...

    How hard is it to replace the battery in an N4?

    Yes, it is true that my N4 didn't run out of juice before the workday was over when I first got it. In the beginning, it wasn't even every day that I had to charge it early, but now, I'm lucky if I make it to 4pm.

    How hard is it to replace the battery in an N4?

    Thanks for the info. Why wouldn't it help? The phones are nearly two years old and my experience with phones with a removable battery says that a battery over a year-year and a half old is getting creaky. Z.

    How hard is it to replace the battery in an N4?

    Both of our N4s are running out of juice before the end of the work day. So has anyone actually replaced the battery? How difficult is it? Is there soldering involved? TIA Z.

    Can I uninstall lollipop?

    I'm the tech savvy one between me and my brother and I guess that's not saying a lot. I worked in IT for 30 years, but then, the machines were room size and didn't fit in a pocket well. I got us both N4s 18 months ago. I upgraded mine to Lollipop as soon as the download was available, but I...

    Wi-fi screwed up since 4.4.4 update

    I installed the 4.4.4 update yesterday without checking anything and now my N4 does not see either of my wireless networks even when I'm right next to them. It'll register the neighbors nets, but not any of mine. What's up with that??? I tried re-booting and that helped a bit. It saw and...

    Where do the pics that show up during a call come from?

    Thanks. I had no idea... Now, the next question - does it link the pic to the phone number strictly through the name? I looked up my small business and I see pics from my website, but my phone is not really linked to my cell phone number. It's linked to an 8xx number that's forwarded to my...

    Where do the pics that show up during a call come from?

    I've been getting a few wrong number calls lately from the same number. It's a business that I have had no contact with (other than these calls) and a pic shows up on the screen during these calls with the name of the business. It looks like a pic from a website or maybe facebook. Could that...

    Kitkat causing problems with Bluetooth

    Well, I gave up on my Q2 and switched to a Jawbone Era. It keeps dropping the connection and I'm loosing calls. I am not a happy camper as far as BT is concerned. Is google talking at all about fixing this or am I on my own? Z
