    Casting to devices "reboots" my WiFi after Nougat update on Galaxy Tab?

    I have a Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) that was recently updated to 7.0. I also have several Chromecast Audios. Ever since the 7.0 update, whenever I attempt to cast from Spotify/Pandora/whatever to a CCA group, it seems to stop, shut off my WiFi (it turns off), then turns itself back on again. I can...

    Broken LCD on S4. Send in to Samsung or local repair shop?

    I broke the glass on my S4. While the LCD seems fine, I'm very weary of having someone replace just the glass due to the labor or removing it, dealing with adhesive, and the possible air-bubble between the new glass and the LCD, so I'm opting to just replace the LCD. I have a local shop...

    VPN Freezes in Android 4.4.2 - S4

    Ok, I'm having the EXACT same issue, in every detail. I realized that PPTP VPN on my S4 (with the 4.4.2 upgrade) no longer works and displays the same behavior as yours (it connects fine, but no transfer, showing 0.1 - 0.2 MB). I know it USED to work. I am able to connect fine via a laptop and...

    Verizon Droid Incredible 2 - Wifi disconnecting after idle with "best wifi performance" disabled?

    Verizon Droid Incredible 2 - Wifi disconnecting after idle with "best wifi performance" disabled? I have an ASUS RT-N66U with wireless set to N-only in 2.4ghz. I don't use the phone much anymore, since it's deactivated, but I've noticed that, after some time (about an hour or so) of idle, the...

    Audio popping/crackling when recording video

    I actually exchanged mine and the new one has the same issue (purchased 2 weeks apart, from different stores). Here's a thread about the issue: [Q] I9505 Video recording crackling sound - xda-developers. I'm living with it, as it usually only happens on the first video and then goes away...

    Audio popping/crackling when recording video

    And actually, I noticed it does it even when simply recording voice using the built-in recorder. So, doesn't even have to be a video recording.

    Audio popping/crackling when recording video

    Thanks, but I'm not sure if that's my case, though I do know what you're referring to. I can let it sit on a flat surface, untouched, and it still does it. Also, I did a couple tests just now, and it's always from the bottom microphone, it seems to do it 90% of the time, and only 10% from the...

    Audio popping/crackling when recording video

    I just brought home the new S4 and while everything else seems fine, I noticed random popping audio when playing back recorded videos. This happens during playback on the phone as well as on a PC. Audio playback through other apps seems perfect - it's just for video recorded with the phone. I've...
