    Status of Android Central Podcast?

    I have also been listening since Phill was hosting and to the CB Podcast back when it was in full swing in the days of the original BBOS. I miss those days and would love to hear more from the AC team.

    Android Central Home Page

    I have been scouring the internet for an answer to this. I just read Jerry's article regarding the galaxy watch 4 and thought his analysis was quite good. What wasn't so good is that there is nowhere to leave a comment or any reader interaction lol. So I hope that you are correct and this...

    Who else is sticking with the 5 vs the 6 6/pro?

    I haven’t had the 5 very long. I’m happy with it and want to keep the unlimited “high quality” photo upload option as long as I can for now.

    Google's supply of 3A's is exhausted.

    Going to keep using my antique for a while I think.

    Android Messages app very slow running Duel Sim on Pixel 3a XL

    Thanks for the responses guys. It seems to be hit or miss right now. Sometimes it's normal and other times its up to 15-20 seconds loading a chat. Seems very strange to me. Perhaps there will be an app update that could fix this in the future. I'm sure there aren't a ton of people using the 3a...

    Android Messages app very slow running Duel Sim on Pixel 3a XL

    So I'm running an eSIM and physical SIM on my Pixel 3a XL. Using call forwarding so I can keep my regular number on Visible, eSIM on Google FI. It seems that since I have done this, the stock Messages app has become painfully slow. It is literally the only thing on my Pixel 3a XL that is slow. I...

    Replace a Pixel 2 with a Pixel 3a?

    There is very little I miss from my Pixel 2 after moving to the 3a XL. The free unlimited google photo uploads, slightly faster load times when processing a photo, and the last for me is no more notification LED. I never see that mentioned anywhere so I suppose I'm the only one that misses it.

    How to clean the charging port

    Had this problem several weeks ago. Although I was hesitant to use something metal that would potentially cause a short circuit, I turned my Pixel off and then cleaned it out carefully with a sewing needle. Worked like a charm for me. No issues and that was about a month ago.

    Annoying volume controls on Android Pie...

    I've been using Android for years and I absolutely hate this change. Should be an option in system setting to set a default what what you control when there is no active media playing. OR, BETTER YET, change it back to the way it was. I'm not hating on change. Change and progress are fine. But I...

    BlackBerry Priv in 2018??

    And you have my attention... Any chances of replacing that 808? Flicked via the BlackBerry keyboard on my Pixel 2

    BlackBerry Priv in 2018??

    This exactly. I was a long time BlackBerry user, still have my Priv and use it a day or 4 every month. But my Pixel 2 is just so much faster, smoother, better battery life, faster charging. Hard to switch back to Priv now. But I prefer Android 8 to Android 9. And the Priv is doomed to stay with...

    Ticwatch E or S

    I have had almost every Pebble ever made and I miss the full functionality that they provided. That said, I would not recommend that anyone now buy a new Pebble. What little support is left in the community is nothing compared to current watched. It pains me to say that as I was a HUGE Pebble...
