Re: Motorola Droid Turbo- Unable to Disable the lock screen. This is precisely why I dumped Android Pay when it replaced Google Wallet. The requirement for a PIN on the phone itself as opposed to app use only is absurd.

I agree, it's of no particular consequence to me either, just didn't know what to make of it when I noticed it this morning. I have no idea when it first started but good to know it's not an issue on only my device.

Ding, we have a winner! This must be some glitch that's recently popped up in Advanced Calling. I've used it constantly since the day it was released & this just popped up. There's no doubt though, I've checked it on/off, on/off twice & that's the culprit. No big deal but had me stumped...

New one on me. First noticed this morning, a call to a busy landline on my Verizon Turbo results in a failed to connect message - no sound whatsoever & no busy signal. Popup message has the options to cancel or retry. My wife's mobile on AT&T has normal busy signal. Anyone have a clue...

IMHO, changing the matrix from Google Wallet was a huge mistake. Even (EVEN) if, The now required PIN for the phone itself works as intended (it doesn't BTW) the app and any transaction is no more secure than the original app only requiring s PIN for use during a purchase. The case can be made...

Re: App auto install somehow Good to hear, it seems to be dependent to some extent on the brand/model of phone. This thing is malware (regardless of denials) and carriers should be ashamed for it's use. Everyone that agrees should be very vocal and let them know in no uncertain terms it will...

Re: App auto install somehow I'm well aware of this, however... I've seen some comments on various sites that gives me pause about this particular app and it's tenacity. If you check it's permissions you will see it's quite different from anything ever installed previously. Some users on...

Re: App auto install somehow I have a question about this DT Ignite monstrosity. If it is disabled in settings, does it STAY disabled - or- will it re-enable itself upon a reboot?

FWIW, this particular app is one that Verizon is very quick to respond to in both Play Store reviews and even more so via email. I've done so on two occasions and they responded in record time on both.

It is a glitch that Verizon is aware of & working on a fix.

Re: Have Droid Turbo phone. Received text with pic and pic is not appearing. Check your text message settings to see if MMS messaging is set to download automatically - if it's not enabled you have to manually OK the photo or other files to download.

Re: My Home Page Google Search Microphone button is not working. Fixed by today's Google update.

Just 2 different texting apps - both work fine but Verizon Messenger+ is highly customizable and more full featured. IMHO, best app from Verizon ever.

Sometimes apps require manual authorization (i.e., new permissions) before updating.

Ah... Thanks again. Since I prefer a "neat" text app I empty it out when done with a conversation so, the feature is of no use to me. Still, good to know...I can see a few cases where it might be useful.
