    Don't shut down / moderate a thread prematurely.

    Yeh. I was premature myself, on reflection. There is not much to advise on, and it was hardly do-able on an older car that may have needed physical brake work rather than wipe a fault. Still, in the future, I may be able to make my 1994 Citroën sound and go like a Ferrari, without ever taking...

    Don't shut down / moderate a thread prematurely.

    Torque Pro is an Android app. Just saying. The OP could have explained better but maybe didn't get the chance. Tim1954 is THE greatest guy and started with a funny quip only, so no criticism of him whatsoever. I had a feeling it might be and then I read a later blog below. Again ...

    Pull down notification panel with one swipe?

    FYI You can flip up the bottom Dock with Microsoft and find it's settings gear wheel icon on the right, plus you can also have quick settings icons there. I'm not sure if you can put them all there as well. I've used Nova Launcher many times, and others but I'm not much of a tinkerer with so...

    Pull down notification panel with one swipe?

    Actually I found the trick is to not swipe from the notification shade, but a short flick from anywhere on the Home Screen. It does what you want, and it's easy to adapt to. (I couldn't see how to edit and add to my previous post on the AC app)

    Pull down notification panel with one swipe?

    I've long been using Microsoft Launcher (free - really liked it - formerly Arrow I think) and I have just found in Settings - Gestures that if I go to the Swipe down option, choosing Quick Settings instead of Notifications works a treat. One finger or thumb and the whole thing drops down even...

    Disabling Multi-Window (Split-Screen) in Android

    I didn't know I could adjust the screen sensitivity! What else can this thing do? I thought you may have an issue with the screen in that area from a magnetic clasp or something. Hey, who's teaching who?! :)

    Disabling Multi-Window (Split-Screen) in Android

    I have a regular Moto G4 (XT1622) on 7.0. I don't think there's a setting to disable it. If I'm reaching to change which apps are displaying while driving I can hold the recent apps button too long, but otherwise I don't have a problem with accidental activation of multi window / dual window by...

    Google account deleted and have forgotten pin on Samsung Galaxy S7

    Long press on the Power button until it shuts off. You can factory reset using the power and volume keys (recovery mode), you can look it up. The device is still locked to your Google account so you will need to enter this on start up. Try Google's, and Samsung's, account recovery help, which...
