    News How to run diagnostics on your Pixel

    Pixel 7 pro on TMob in US. When I select confirm, I get this error message: Note: The Diagnostics Tool is only designed for use in the United States at this time. I made sure my VPN is off, I'm on my local Wi-Fi network and I restarted my phone. Why does it think I'm not in the US?

    Best way to transfer S5 to G4

    I've seen in other threads that the LG backup and restore may not work with all non LG phones. I will be migrating from a Samsung Note 3 running lollipop on sprint to a G4 on verizon so I'll be switching brands and providers at once.
