    S8+ going to silent mode when driving

    Apparently that wasn't the solution. I've turned off Easy Mute and this is still happening. I've uninstalled Android Auto and it's still muting everything. I'm assuming it has something to do with moving a certain speed telling the phone that I'm in a moving vehicle. Very frustrating.

    S8+ going to silent mode when driving

    It was. I've turned it off and see if that takes care of it. Thanks!

    S8+ going to silent mode when driving

    So for the last few weeks whenever two conditions are met, 1)phone in pocket and 2) in a moving vehicle, my phone sets all sounds to silent. I have searched but I can't seem to find a setting that causes this. Any ideas?

    Galaxy S8+ switches to silent mode when driving

    Just in the last few weeks it seems that whenever I'm driving with the phone in my pocket it switches to silent/vibrate. If it's not in my pocket it doesn't switch. I wouldn't care, but it doesn't switch back automatically, I have to manually go in and turn all the volume settings back up. I've...

    Tab 3 8" looses track of time/date?

    If it has a GPS, it should be able to figure what time zone it's in AND set the time/date correctly through the GPS network. After all, that's what my Garmin does.

    Unlocked HTC One just received 4.4 update but no printing support

    I have a Sprint HTC One and I got the 4.3 update in mid to late September. Samsung started updating the Galaxy S4 to 4.3 in December. I'm a little lost here.

    Are there any flip book style cases that don't cover the notification led and speakers?

    I used this one for a while, but I switched to an Otterbox. I liked this case, but I wanted more protection. Amazon.com: KLD Brand New Snap-on Thin Side Flip Synthetic Leather Cover Case for Verizon HTC One HTC6445LVW HTC M7 (Black): Cell Phones & Accessories

    Flash on any browser

    Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I've installed flash, tried 3 different browsers that support flash, and yet anytime I try to bring up a video on Amazon instant video it tells me "Flash is not installed". Am I missing a setting somewhere? EDIT: As it turns out I posted a bit early. I...

    HTC One case that covers the lock button?

    It could potentially control anything with an IR input, but that's pretty much the only purpose of the IR blaster AFAIK.

    HTC One case that covers the lock button?

    Most of them do not cover the power button because it doubles as an IR blaster. I believe I saw someone on here a while back with a case that had a clear cover over the power button, but I don't think many cases do.

    No USB Mass Storage - how else can I recover lost files?

    I was under the impression that at least Jelly Bean and KitKat use the ext file system internally, so as long as the app can read that it should be able to recover files. The fact that Android now uses ext is the reason that it was changed to using MTP to connect to a computer. It used to use...

    No USB Mass Storage - how else can I recover lost files?

    There are several apps in the play store that claim to be able to do this. I haven't used any of them, but have you tried that approach?

    Is it too late to get one?

    I look at it like this. If you wait a few months because something better is coming out, something even newer/faster will be coming out a few months after that. You could get stuck in that cycle. If you get a phone that's one of the best on the market right now, it'll be capable of doing...
