    For me it was the NFL Mobile app. I haven't yet rooted, debating still, so I disabled it and problem solved. Posted via the Android Central App

    LG G4

    Using Android Auto on my Verizon LG G4 with a Pioneer 4100nex with no problems. Did not have to enable usb debugging or do anything special. Phone is not rooted, no firmware update on the Pioneer. Also, I could be wrong about this, but amperage shouldn't be cable dependent, rather it usually...

    The LG G4 works with Android Auto

    Just finished installing my 4100nex (took a few days because I wanted to use my stock sub, retain my stock aux inputs and steering wheel controls, and run the mic to the a-pillar), and Android Auto with my Verizon LG G4 is working beautifully. Posted via the Android Central App

Does anybody know if there's...

    Brightness Decrease During Video Playback From Gallery

    The title says it all. I thought this had been solved by the update (like a week after release date or something). But alas it is back. Anybody else experiencing this? I tried all variants of brightness settings to no avail. Every time I want to play a video from the gallery app, I navigate to...

    What UI Tweaks Have Improved Your UX?

    Hey guys, I absolutely love my G2. However, I do agree with something I've read in several reviews: UI tweaks improve the experience of using the phone. Personally, I've gotten rid of QSlide in my notifications panel, and I turned my "Front Touch Buttons" Theme to Black Gradation. I'm sure...
