    After the 8.1 update for my Pixel 2 XL my screen flashes when I lock the device.

    re: I've had my Pixel 2 XL for months now and never had this issue. However, I talked my wife into trying one (Verizon, 64G) and she has had the issue from day 1. Could it just be an issue with certain phones or is it a generic issue? If she has to return the phone it would be better to do...

    Bluetooth problem or something else?

    I've had the same problem with this phone, and found that the best way to fix it is to just reboot the phone and reconnect to bluetooth. Life is too short to spend it trying to figure out bluetooth issues.

    7.1.2 and Bluetooth Music Skipping/Cracking

    I have had to set my bluetooth connections up the same way in my car (2011 BMW), having the car BT set for phone and my added BT adapter set for media in my Pixel XL BT settings. So far it has worked perfectly, with the added bonus of utilizing the phone and receiver's APTx codec, which is not...

    the screen polarization is a deal breaker

    My M9 had the same problem with polarization but in the horizontal position. My HTC 10 is unreadable in the vertical position, but I like the phone enough that I can learn to read it horizontally when I have to.

    hi-fi amp on headphone jack

    Speaking of bluetooth, does the HTC Ten have the aptX codec in it's bluetooth stream, as the M8 & M9 did?

    HTC M9 and Honda bluetooth issues..can I get some help?

    Rather than waste your time trying to pair an M9 with anything, I think the best solution is to use an aftermarket bluetooth car kit. I was able to half-way pair my M9 with my BMW (by refusing to let it access my contacts), but since Marshmallow update it won't even allow that option. It goes...

    Verizon HTC One M8 Lollipop Update Thread

    How do you add a trusted device on a lollipop M8? I don't see that option anywhere in the settings.

    Verizon HTC One M8 Lollipop Update Thread

    As far as an alternative to FoxFi, I have always been able to connect through PDA Net by tethering to my computer, and the PDA Net application on the computer side will set up a wireless hotspot.

    Verizon HTC One M8 Lollipop Update Thread

    I updated last night and haven't had any issues other than my FoxFi hotspot won't connect any more. I have tried all the usual workarounds but have had no success. Has anyone been able to get their hotspot going through FoxFi, or will I have to wait for the app to update?

    Nexus 9 Tablet: Pre Order Thread. Are you getting one?

    I pre-ordered a black Nexus 9 32gb from Best Buy three hours after it went up on the site, believing that it would be shipped fairly close to the release date. But no such luck, I got an email from Best Buy saying it should be shipped between November 13th and December 3rd. I also ordered the...

    Need a car Mount

    I've been using the ProClip vent mount with the medium size adjustable phone module for a month now, and it works great for my M8 in a Seidio Surface case with kickstand. Having a quality system that seems like it will work with this phone, and my next as well, is worth it to me. Sent from my...

    touch screen sensitivity?

    I've had this problem as well. I thought it was a thing of the past since I quit using my DROID BIONIC months ago, but it has reappeared on this phone. I've found the quickest way to fix is to turn the screen off & back on with the power button. I'm hoping an update will fix this problem...
