Does anyone know how to change the ring tones on a Leagoo Lead 6? "Sound" does not come up as an option under "Settings" and there is no option to change ringtones in the phone app.

I have two phones and a number of SD cards and the same problem arises with every combination. If I use the cards in "portable" mode (ex-FAT format) Android can see the card but can only use 2Gb of it. If I try to put more data on the card, from the phone or via a USB link to my PC, the...

I have a cheap Chinese Android phone which has given me good service over the past 4 years. Last week the microSD card suddenly died. My Windows PC couldn't mend it so I replaced it. Today the replacement failed in exactly the same way. I put it down to dud cards. However, I loaded up my...

Having tried unsuccessfully to convert a particular vinyl album to something I could play on my Android phone, I finally got around the problem by ripping the tracks off Youtube in all their digital loveliness (or at least lack of 1960s beer stains). When cassette tape recorders became popular...

I'm encoding using Goldwave 64 bit running under Windows. I've used the same for all my albums, but there's just one that won't play on my Android devices. The same card plays using Windows Media Player or VLC. My only thought is that there may be some kind of copy protection that Android can...

Windows thinks my tablet is a camera When I got my Asus Mempad 7 (K013) and made a USB connection to my Windows PC, Windows could see the internal memory and SD card as removable drives. Now when I connect them together, Windows sees it as a camera and I can only access the pictures on the...

I have a cheap Chinese tablet running ICS which I use when I'm on holiday. The built-in email client won't run. The "loading" screen appears for about 2 seconds, then it goes back to the desktop. If I then look in running applications I get a black screen. I've tried rebooting, resetting and...

I've found the answer. Once you have the individual contact on the screen, you hold down the "back" button and eventually up pops a menu. Hardly intuitive!

I've tried all the icons and buttons, but all they can come up with is to call the number, send an email or take me back to the previous screen. On the "people" list I have a search icon and one that takes me to entering a new contact. If I go into a particular entry, all the icons disappear...

I've picked up this thread since I got a Chinese Android 4 phone for Christmas. The model is apparently W007. I can't edit my contacts. The three dots menu button doesn't appear anywhere. If I go into the people app, I get a list of people with a place for pictures. If I touch where the...

I'm using a (remarkably) cheap Chinese tablet with WM8850 & ICS. It can cope happily with any kind of storage plugged into the USB port and mounts it automatically. This doesn't appear in the notification area. To unmount it, you have to go into the settings menu and it's buried deep under...
