    Backing up on the computer

    the easiest way to backup contacts and photos for a non-techie is to get LookOut Mobile Security, make a free account via the app, and back the 2 up. Google wont save contacts unless you told it to do so in contacts app. Photos can be put back on the computer, but you will need to connect to the...

    Music Not Showing Up

    i was going to state as such. I use MP3Tag tool on my laptop. And I found out years ago that Android OS wont play mp3 unless it has a tag. So I make sure my mp3s are tagged to my fancy and dumped into the MUSIC folder on my Internal drive (or external whatever you prefer)

    No Service for a Week! Service State: Radio off

    You have water damage. On any any cell phone or smartphone, water/liquid damage can interfer with hardware and, thus, software. It appears, based on your question, that some liquid got into the internals (inside) of the phone. If any vital part got wet, your phone will not operate the same...

    Unexplained App issue...

    This may be the incorrect forum to post this, so feel free to bump me to another section. Question: Is there an generalized app/program code to resolve an issue where an app updated via Playstore on Motorola phones ONLY should not need to be Forced Closed before being uninstalled/reinstalled in...

    Best performance with replacement apps

    CPU/RAM is directly correlated to battery consumption. The more CPU and ram you use, the more battery you use. Background apps will only use battery when not being used for up to 3-5 minutes max until Android, like iOS, will freeze them or close them by default. I use Watchdog to monitor this...

    Root Checker

    The only way you're gonna get caught with returning a rooted phone to the warranty dept on any carrier is if the employees are actually doing their job and have a brain/knowledge on Android........ to be blunt, you're fine. Lol lol lol :);):cool::D Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    WiFi Tether not working after ICS upgrade

    "wifi tether for rooters" will not work on ICS or JellyBean... the dev needs to incorporate 4.0+ into his/her/their app code... Just get FoxFi... no root needed... you're good to go like Taco Bell now... Lastly... Android doesn't natively support AD-HOC connections... :(

    Rooting

    Is does 1 thing only.... gives you superuser (admin) access to the internals of the phones software. That's it. All the fancy smancy stuff comes from rooted apps... like iPhone emoji keyboard and icons displays... ad in app removals.... freezing (or deleting--not recomemded) bloatware... custom...
