So I called Boom Mobile and they changed some settings on their end then had me help my wife through resetting her Wi-Fi, Mobile & Bluetooth. Since it doesn’t go directly to voicemail every time it’s hard to figure out. Tonight my son called my wife and it went straight to voicemail and just a...

So it is possible poor coverage could cause going straight to voicemail wasn’t sure about that. My wife and I were both on Tracfone until she needed more minutes and it made since to compare rates among providers. I chose Boom Mobile since it had roughly the same Verizon coverage as...

Nope doesn’t use WiFi calling.

Well that’s what I’ve asked her before but think she keeps forgetting to look when this happens... I may have to get her an app so it’s easier to see. She’s in a nursing home (and quarantined) in a different city so it’s not like I can go over and have someone call her phone. I do know with my...

My wife’s Pixel 3 has recently randomly started going straight to voicemail and I can’t figure it out. I thought the only reason it might was (1) phone was off (2) Do Not Disturb was enabled or (3) Airplane Mode was enabled. She’s using Boom Mobile as her carrier and I believe she’s on Android...

You open the Galaxy Watch app on your phone > Apps > Weather > Gear icon > Auto refresh.

Thanks for replying! I think I discovered why it was off some apparently the Auto Refresh default was set to every 12 hours so setting that to every hour should help... like I said still learning about this watch.

I’m new to smart watches in general and been getting used to my new Active 2 for the last couple of days. I’ve skimmed through the manual and been reading a lot of posts about it’s features... always new things to learn. I’m currently using the default watch face but have customized it a bit to...

Oh never mind I just realized Bluetooth tethering is a different process and not necessary for a Hotspot.

Today the internet went down at my wife’s nursing home so I helped her via the phone setup a Hotspot on her Pixel 3 so she could use her iPad... hopefully this is temporary. She only has 2 GB of data so I told her to turn off the Hotspot on her phone every time she finished with her iPad. Does...

I actually ended up picking up a 3 XL and it’s pretty nice! I compared the 4 XL, 3 XL, and 3a XL in a Verizon store and if money was no object I preferred the profile of the 4 XL best followed by the 3a XL then the 3 XL. The 3 XL just seemed a little fatter than the other two but the 4 XL is too...

Ok was just thinking if I upgraded again in a year I would already have a fast charger.

What do you guys think of wireless chargers that have fans like this Anker 7.5 charging stand https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Wireless-Charger-PowerWave-Internal/dp/B07H2XF1FN/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1&tag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU6714905 Do you think they provide enough...

Can someone answer my earlier question about using the screen saver clock will this be affected when using 3rd party chargers... will it still display? Also if you buy a wireless charger that comes with an 18 watt adapter will it automatically downgrade to charging at 5 watts if that’s what...

Thanks B Diddy for moving it yes I messed up! Thanks for the answers swebb! Since I use the screensaver clock will this still appear while on all the other charger stands besides the Pixel Stand?
