Wow! I still read things I've never seen before on these forums. I've actually never heard of this before. I'm familiar with adding the same fingerprint multiple times to increase accuracy for that finger, but never combining 2 figures into 1 slot. I do see it over on the XDA forums for this...

Hi! That is strange. Hopefully the text wasn't about your wife :D Which messaging apps are you both using on the respective phones? Just the stock messenger app? VZW messenger? Textra? Any others?

Using the BE here and love it. Keyboard shortcuts are the best. if you have the money I'd go Key2 at this point.

play on my keyone without issue! looks great/runs great on the smaller display. For reference I have the BE with 4gb ram.

Hello! Great question! Samsung makes their data rather tricky to share between services. The goal is to of course keep you in their ecosystem. I know there is no good way of syncing the data without the involvement of a 3rd party app. Might want to look into this app I found on the store...

Hello! This cannot be completed (the installing of the actual OS). The only thing that can be accomplished is loading the Google Play Store onto the BB OS through a sideload. This is a viable option to bring some of the better android options onto the device (with some limitations). The...

Hi Tony36011 Great choices here. A huge fan of both those devices and the companies who manufacturer them! What device are you currently using now? This is a tough comparison for me simply coming from the fact the Z2 Force out specs the Pixel (non XL) in several key areas (Resolutio/PPI...

Hello! Here are some suggestions I have based on what you described above: 1. Is your screen timeout setting set to the max on Android (usually 30 minutes)? You can access this by going to Settings > Display > Sleep (see what its currently set to). 2. Is there a rogue app or background...

I'm torn between two devices I'm using both the essential phone and the pixel 2 (not XL). I still have a few days left before the return period ends on both devices and I just don't know what to do. Please chime in and let me know your thoughts there are pros and cons to both devices and I could...

Hello! It appears they do if you're ordering from the Google Play Store the same could be said if you decided to order from Best Buy below is the link to show confirmation that Ohio is part of their taxable areas. https://support.google.com/store/answer/6160272?hl=en

Let me start by saying... I love Android. I also find a ton of value in the iOS platform. As consumers, we have an incredible amount of choice to suit our needs best. One thing that I was really thinking about today was I'd like to see my wife using an Android phone. She's used an iPhone since...

This is a great answer. As someone who sets up company phones there's nothing that you can get off the sim card. However tracking phone calls is very easy and the above user is correct you can hide IT management apps to do additional tracking. If if the option is available I would recommend...

Hello! This could potentially be a hardware issue. My first question would be are you still under a year of ownership? If so, you could get a free replacement device with that type of issue. If not, there is a great gesture based app that I used to use when buttons didn't work. Linking you down...

Hi! So sorry about this! Honestly such a defeating feeling. There is at least a fairly good chance some of this was backed up to Google. Have you tried accessing the web version of Google photos or Google contacts to see what might have been saved?
