    T-Mobile app flagged malware/virus

    I had the same problem. T-Mobile says its not a problem with their app. As far as they can determine, it's Avast that hasn't updated their definitions and it's getting a false positive.

    Enable Accessibility notice - how do I stop it?

    Sigh. Thanks. At least, it's mostly harmless. But, man, if you have the gesture set to "Do Nothing", you shouldn't get a nag when you do it.

    Enable Accessibility notice - how do I stop it?

    I've been getting a pop-up that tells me I need to enable Accessibility Services in Nova Launcher to use them. I don't use them. I don't want to to use them. But, I am, apparently, accidentally swiping the screen in such a way that the phone thinks I do. Is there ANY way at all to have the...

I decided that it had to be some kind of rogue memory drain. I downloaded an app that told me what was using my...

    Turn off Caller ID by Google?

    Turn off Caller ID by Google My 5 month old M9 lost the will to live, so Verizon sent me a new one. This new one seems to have Caller ID by Google(?) turned on by default. I cannot begin to express how much I hate this feature. I want my unknowns to come in as Unknown. However, I can find no...

    My camera's picture cannot go on my external SD card

    My razr m changed to defaulting to store to device after the wretched update. Fortunately, the razr's camera has a setting to change storage location. Don't know if the Samsung does but I could see missing it if you've never had to touch it before.

    Changed, missing features and bugs with KitKat "upgrade"

    Try Hacker's Keyboard. It replicates the functionality of the old one along wiyh some other niceties. Settings shortcut is still there. Click the block in the top right corner. Ot alternates between notifications and settings/shortcuts. Hate dialer as well as mute missing from lockscreen.

    how did my phone just randomly take a screen shot?

    You have to hold down the power key & wait to push the home key until just before the shut-down options pop up...gotta get the timing just right. AND, once you do that, as long as you keep your power button pushed down, you are in screenshot mode and can switch screens, enter (at least some)...
