    FCC Speed Test App

    I installed it when it was first released because I wanted the FCC to know how much "broadband" underperformed. Clearly, it didn't do any good.

    Google Home Mini can't find my Samsung Phone

    The phone is already set up and I can find it using other methods as described. On a side note, I turned on my old phone for the first time since trying to find my new phone that fateful evening, and a few minutes after my new phone finished booting, find my phone started ringing it.

    Google Home Mini can't find my Samsung Phone

    I've had a Galaxy S9+ for almost a year and I can't imagine I've never had to find my phone at home in that time but I set it down somewhere the other night and then asked Google to find my phone but it looked for my old phone instead.

    Alexa can't turn on AV receiver on new Fire Stick

    I just got a new Fire Stick and have everything pretty much set up. The Fire Stick remote is able to turn my Denon receiver on and off and control the volume but when I followed its suggestion to use Alexa it doesn't know what I am talking about. I assumed I would call it the name of the input...

    Smart Voice recorder app data transferred to sd card , now in an unuseable thumbdata3 format

    Does using a file browser like Astro allow you to "open as?" My Smart Voice Recorder recordings are still on internal storage so they are apparently hidden but this has worked for other problem files.

    I have a BlackBerry Priv, and you have questions. It's time to do the thing!

    What does this thing do for a charging indicator? My last few phones have covered up any notification LEDs while charging and that's a bummer. I loved that my original Droid had a separate charging light so there was no covering up notifications but no phone since then has had that.
