    Is Root the only way to get full access to external SD?

    I hear talk File Expert gives access to the SD card without root access. https://forums.androidcentral.com/e?link=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.anrdoezrs.net%2Flinks%2F100048248%2Ftype%2Fdlg%2Fsid%2FUUacUvbUpU3616288%2Fhttps%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dxcxin.filexpert&token=FInusEdh

    Get directions - missing

    If it opens it up in google maps (but doesn't seem to offer a convenient way to navigate to it) could you try tapping and holding on the point or near the point on the map, and navigating to it?

    Deleted Emails Re-appearing

    I would remove and re-create the email account - Ensuring you are always using IMAP/SMTP and never POP3. With a true IMAP setup, any changes you make on your device will be synced back to your yahoo. Make sure Sync is on. Alternatively, go into yahoo and setup forwarding to gmail, log out of...

    WiFi and 4g on at same time

    It just shows what quality data connection you're in - It will still always use Wifi over mobile data first. No worries! If you're really concerned about it, you can always disable mobile data while you're on wifi, but the only time mobile data would be used while connected to a wireless network...

    Syncing Outlook.com with Android 4.4

    I would look into cloud magic email - I've been using it for corporate exchange but it seems to have setup for any emails. The main reason I went with it over stock application is to bypass the required security PIN lock which is very annoying every time I need to unlock my screen. It's also...

    First World Keyboard Problems

    Without even reading the entire post.. I recommend you check out Swiftkey. There is a free version if you haven't tried it already. I'm sometimes torn between this and Swype, but Swiftkey is very customizable and learns words really well. Anyone I've ever recommended it to have not been...

    Transferring Data from old to New SD card in 4.4

    To add: I have also tried writing all of my pictures to the phone itself (over USB), which works fine. With an empty card, I snap a quick picture to get the 'camera' (SD) folder. I then try to move all of my pictures on the device to the SD card. Poof. All corrupt again, and then they delete...

    Transferring Data from old to New SD card in 4.4

    I'm having some major issues after upgrading from my old Class 2 (Samsung) 16 GB SD card to a new 64 GB class 10. The card seems fine, holds data and can read/write just fine. I was able to transfer over everything in the ANDROID folder, but when it comes to pictures and other odds and ends, I...
