    Native Weather app slow to launch.

    It's a native Google app on the Pixel, so it just has "Google" as the app name. Grey

    Native Weather app slow to launch.

    My Pixel XL is about 6 or 7 months old and currently running the official Oreo OS (not rooted). For the past month or so (both before and after the Oreo update), my native weather app (Google's...top right corner of the home page) sometimes takes about 5 to 15 seconds to launch. Rebooting the...

    Lg g4... With all issues.. Is it still worth it

    Mine (on Verizon) is flawless. Best camera I've used, go to bed with about 50% battery left, and never gives the slightest problem. I wouldn't trade it for ANY phone out right now. Having said that, if I were in the market for a new device, like the post above this one, I'd wait to see what...

    Android Central Photo Contest: Height

    This is my service dog, Heidi, at the Washington Monument. I was there to run the Marine Corps Marathon with my son who came over from the Navel Academy. We crossed the finish line together at 3 hours 47 minutes. I did a little editing in SnapSeed.

    Does the 6P have an IR port?

    I really like my Infrared port for remote control stuff. Does the 6P have one?

    Is there any reason why Google Voice (phone number forwarding) would not work using Verizon?

    No, I don't wont to use Fi. I plan on staying with Verizon and using my Google Voice number regardless of what my SIM number for the 6P is. From what you said, sounds like that will work. I just wanted to be sure that when I call people, they see my number as the Google Voice number, not the...

    Is there any reason why Google Voice (phone number forwarding) would not work using Verizon?

    Currently, I have a Google Voice phone number (my cell number for 15 years). I use Google Voice make/receive all calls and text from that number, despite whatever my phone's SIM card phone number is. I think I read that this function does not work if are using Project Fi. As long as I have my...

    Any fix for Chrome slowing LG G4 home screen and general function?

    I can't help with your Chrome issue because I quit using it...too big of a battery hog. I think Google is over doing the background data collecting. It also causes my laptop cpu to churn away like a mad man. So I just left it all together, and switched to Firefox. It also lets you sync your...

    LG G4 Screen Capture App? Help

    It has a native app for that. You hold the volume down and power button at the same time. It's a little tricky because they are so close together, but after a few tries, you'll become a master.

    LG G4 Battery Life Thread

    Re: LG G4 - screen sucks up battery life! I doubt the screen is the actual cause. The OP says he keeps it at 0%...that's lower than running Lux. It's probably an app or 2 that have some runnaway location checks and or poorly written.

    Does Verizon just suck?

    Verizon has always been awesome as far as I'm concerned. Best customer service I ever experience. Always an American that can understand what your saying and doesn't seem to just repeat what you say while they find the response from a script. Also, in my experience and travels, the network...

    The LG V10 is official! G4 owners, what do you think?

    The G4 is my size limit. With the V10 having a bigger screen and the same size battery, I think the battery life will suck. From my years of reading Android Forums, the 2 things people want most are a top performing camera and better battery life.
