    Google Maps language

    I have my phone set to Canada English, but Google Maps shows terms like petrol stations and motorways. How do I get Maps to use north American terms?

    Banding disappears on its own?

    It was. But the band and the notch or blob has now disappeared, which is why I'm perplexed.

    Yes, yes, yes, and yes, even after a factory reset.

    Banding disappears on its own?

    After having my new pixel 2 XL for less than 24 hours, I saw some banding and a blob on the side of the screen. I'll attach a photo if it works. I contacted a Google support which had me try a few things. But then they told me I should try the retailer first. I haven't had a chance to go back...

    Android O - running list of bugs and glitches (and any fixes)

    Every time I try to update my weight in the Fitbit app it crashes. I also notice sometimes when I tap on a notification in the shade, it either doesn't take me to that app, or it takes forever to do so.

    Can't change background settings on chromecasts?

    Ok, wiping out the post to now say after rebooting my router (I thought I had done that already, but guess not!) that now both devices are showing in my Home app and I'm able to change the settings. We'll see if this lasts!

    Can't change background settings on chromecasts?

    Nope. For a while this morning I saw that for one of the CCs, but not the other. Now I'm back to seeing nothing but ready to cast.

    Can't change background settings on chromecasts?

    Just bought a couple of Chromecast 2.0s, and set them up tonight. But when I try to follow the instructions on how to change the background settings, etc, something is amiss. When I go into the device tab on the Google Home app and hit the hamburger menu, the only option it shows is to reboot...

    Google Clock not working in Direct Boot?

    I have a 6p running Nougat, the U version. I use Google Clock for my alarm. The last clock update supposedly enabled the alarms to work in Direct Boot. However, multiple times my phone has rebooted overnight and been stuck on my Android PIN screen, and the alarm has not worked. Do I need to...

    PIN Required on Restart

    If his phone is like mine, we aren't restarting it because we want to, it's because the phone crashes. I get a random reboot at least once a day.

    Will phone always dispaly "Charging Rapidly" during the charge cycle?

    So, my phone was around 73% when I left work. I plugged it into my car dock, and only got the normal charging message. When I open up Ampere, it tells me the max USB current is 1000 Ma. When I got home, i immediately plugged it into my wall charger, and got the "charging rapidly" message, and...

    Will phone always dispaly "Charging Rapidly" during the charge cycle?

    I could have sworn at home my phone says "charging rapidly" when I plug it into the wall, even when it's almost full, but I did turn 40 last year, so my memory is probably gone......... I'll see on the car ride home as I usually am around 60% when I leave work.

    Will phone always dispaly "Charging Rapidly" during the charge cycle?

    Long story short, I've gone through a few car chargers from Vinsic, as at first they would let my phone fast charge in the car as evidenced by the "charging rapidly" message. This morning I tried my new replacement charger (as the old one stopped fast charging it seems) and my battery was...

    Vinsic 3A car charging stopped charging rapidly

    And no contact from Amazon or Vinsic. And I'm out of the 30 day window to return it to Amazon. Sigh.

    Car dock with integrated Type C to Type C versus universal car mount?

    Here's my review copy and pasted from the Android store. Pros: Suction cup is strongest i have ever seen Cons: Placement of NFC chip makes it useless I purchased this a month or 2 ago to hold my Nexus 6p. Item arrived from the store in Canada within a few days, in a temporary box...

    Vinsic 3A car charging stopped charging rapidly

    After a few emails with Vinsic support, she said she "contacted her Amazon colleagues and they will contact you shortly". Probably would be faster if I just went on Amazon myself and returned it......

    Google Nexus 6P USB-C car chargers?

    Did you go with the Vinsic? And if so, has yours stopped charging rapidly? Mine has, after less than a month.

    Vinsic 3A car charging stopped charging rapidly

    Bought one of these to use with my iBOLT Cpro dock a month or so ago. Things worked great, but in the past few days I noticed that my phone now only reports as "charging" and not "charging rapidly" with the car charger. Has anyone had a Vinsic quit on them like that? Or at least the fast...
