https://android.gadgethacks.com/how-to/speech-text-adding-oh-before-every-comma-heres-fix-0202187/ This did it for me. Just go into your voice typing languages, and make sure you have added "English (generic)" to your available languages. You don't have to use it. it just has to be there. This...

I used to have a really similar problem in my Moto G3. I would very often (sometimes up to every few hours) have the SD Card get unreadable. I'd have to reboot it, unmount, remount, power off/on... sometimes several times. I finally figured out that only a complete wipe and re-format would fix...

MOB30X (6.0.1) is the latest/last stock Marshmallow version for both the WiFi and mobile Nexus 7 2013's. Installing it and re-rooting should be easy enough with WugFresh' NRT. You can even use its 'no-wipe' option to save all your data during the update (tho it's normally recommended to do a...

I'm so glad I could help 😊 thanks for the shout!

Oddly, though, Google has decided not include the MD5 hashtag like they always have been, since the beginning of the time. They still do list the SHA-256, so verifying it isn't really a big big deal but I know at least a few programs only check for MD5 to verify (wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit...

Oh right, sorry, I misread your earlier post, and didn't realise that the Motorola Update was the the app with 'freeze' greyed out. I don't know, man. Even the things I always use for protection in the event of a bad update (Titanium Backup and Nandroid backup) both require root. I can sure...

Samsung Tech Tupport gave you incorrect information, first of all. I'm very sorry about your troubles you're having. I am, however, fairly certain you will not, unfortunately, be able to freeze that update process without root. By the way, those other two "Update Apps" you speak of, what were...

Totally speculative. It's not written anywhere official that I'm aware of. I know it's Google's normal timetable, and I did see a couple articles that say it might be the last, like one on androidpolice.com from 2 days ago (6 July). But no, I've got no insider info or anything like that. I...

The July update is available (MOB30P), marked 5 July, with a bunch of security updates. They are saying that this might be the last update for our tablet, as this release fulfills Google's promised 3 years of security updates. [emoji22]

I think you've nothing to worry about. People here seem to really enjoy helping.

You hear all kinds of things about different backups.... nandroid, adb, titanium, and others. There are different advantages to them all and, like most things, there's a different learning curve with each. I love learning this stuff, too, so it's (frustrating) fun. Most people just want a...

Not with my Nexus, but with several other devices over the years, I've had issues where the device just won't connect to the router on its own. Sometimes you can make it connect by assigning a local IP on your device and/or reserving an IP in your router for your device's NIC. It's a bit of a...

It's been re-posted for at least 3 days now and is still there. I downloaded the tarball and installed it on Tuesday, 12 April. Running fine 🙋

After several unsuccessful attempts to root my phone after the Marshmallow OTA update (each attempt soft-bricked my phone), I've had to downgrade to Lollipop a few times in the past weeks. The instructions on XDA on how to flash a Moto G system image worked just fine for me, every single time.

Re: How to disable system update notifications? Don't want marshmallow till its stable ... That's a serious question. To root or not root is the subject of a ton of forum threads. There are also a whole bunch of websites on all the things your rooted phone will let you do, that you can't do...
