    Why is the "text field" so small? How can I enlarge it?

    In simpler terms, what the above poster was trying to say is that this is not possible in the default text app. Texting is meant to be for short messages, not ten sentence missives :) Your options are either to break your text into multiple messages, or try finding an alternate texting app...

    8.1 OTA Received?

    Lol, you'll be waiting a while. Only Pixel and Nexus phones have it so far. Third party benefits will take a few months at least to catch up

    Verizon offering me $300 to switch back

    I took T-Mobile up on their offer to pay off my Pixel XL ($550!) in exchange for switching away from Big Red.... for as long as it took for the gift card to be issued :) On Fi now and as happy as can be. Out of the blue Verizon sent an offer for a $300 gift card if I switch back, which is...

    Why is my Pixel Xl showing me in the wrong location and how do I fix it?

    Because it's a niche request with a limited number of users who'd a) want it and b) not be able to figure out how to properly install a new launcher?
