    Nexus 6: Can I reroute notifications to bluetooth?

    All my previous devices would let the bluetooth headset handle notifications, if I have BT connected. My Nexus 6 still has the device speaker on, too, for that. Even though it fully redirects music to A2DP headsets. Is there a way I can silence the speaker for notifications, too, when I'm...

    Why can't I copy or move files to my MicroSD card?

    Can't copy or move files to microSD card I have a Sandisk 128 gig microSD card. I have two devices that are supposed to handle that size -- a Blackberry Passport and an Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3. The Idol 3 seems to think the card is locked and I can't move or copy files to it while it's in the...

    How do I fix my Outlook/Google calendar problems?

    Just switched to an Alcatel Idol 3 for my daily driver. On my previous device, Gmail was starting to get sluggish. And Gmail seems to be moving toward the PC browser tabbed view, not my favorite. I decided to try Outlook for email and like how it does things. So, I thought I'd try the built...

    Profile Manager

    I just got my Idol 3. So far I love it. But I have to manually shut off notification and ringer sounds. So, I figured I'd use a profile manager. They all seem to handle automated stuff (changes based on time or location, etc.). None seem to mention manual profile changes or overrides...

    T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2: Data Issues

    Problem solving time: I have a T-Mobile Note 2 with CM 10.2.1 (Android 4.3) and I've been really happy with it. I work from home, so most of my data use is over wifi. While running some errands a couple of days ago, I noticed I'm no longer getting data while not on wifi. I can get full bars...

    T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 Screenshots

    I've seen threads for AT&T and Verizon, but none for T-Mo. So, I figured I'd start one. Here's mine:

    Not Getting Facebook Images

    Suddenly I'm getting likes and reshares noted without getting the images that are being liked or reshared. This has only started in the last couple of days. I haven't changed any settings for the Facebook app or the phone. T-Mo GN2, OS 4.1.1. Any ideas?

    Voicemail Notification Bug

    A couple of days ago I started getting a notification for a voicemail message that doesn't exist. The notification only shows up right after I start up the phone. Shut down the phone, swap batteries, there it is. Do a restart, there it is. I've gone through all the settings and didn't find...

    Case Question

    I have a T-Mo Note 2 that should be arriving mid week. As I'm looking around at some of the necessary accessories, I notice that many of the cases specify one or more of the carrier models and/or the international model. So, before I order something and have to send it back, are there any size...

    Tab Is Frozen at Boot Screen! Help!

    I've tried a few search terms and found nothing, so apologies if I missed an existing answer. Last night, I was going to read a couple of RSS feeds after updating Zinio. When I went to change launcher pages, it did change, but slowly. Then it got stuck. Nothing would work. That's happened...

    Maybe a dumb adaptor questions

    I have a refurb Galaxy Tab 10.1. I bought a set of connector adaptors -- the ones where one allows connecting an SD card and the other allows a normal connection. Both work great. But, after putting my music collection on a thumb drive, it dawned on me that there are two issues. 1) Music...

    Ultimate Giveaway question

    Both tablets list the size as 32, but the Nexus 4 doesn't say whether it's 8 or 16 gig. Which is it? And, if it's the 8, could the winner throw in $50 to get a 16?

    A couple of app questions

    I just upgraded to 4.0.4 UK version. But I have a couple of questions. 1) After seeing some launcher recommendations, I added ADW EX launcher. Until I accidentally set the built in launcher as default, I could choose which one on the fly. I've been exploring, trying to reset that back to the...

    Two apps on screen at the same time?

    Is that possible? All my searches seem to talk about a single app with a split screen within that app. What I want to do is have a reference source (like an ebook or Bible) on one part of the screen and something like a notepad or blogging app on the other, at the same time. Both functional...
