One easy solution to improving battery life is to... Get a Garmin. I often get over a week of battery life with my Venu Sq 2 watch, even using some GPS.

What are the 30 cities?

This has been a problem with Pixels since the Android 14 rollout in October. Immediately after the Android 14 update my wireless Android Auto would constantly disconnect. Plugged in would work fine. With the Android 14 update that came out in December it was finally fixed and I get no more...

So my Pixel 5a dies without warning (subject of another post). I was using an ESIM from Mint Mobile. But planning ahead, I had a backup OnePlus 7T (SIM card only) and a new, unused Mint Mobile SIM card. So, I should be all set if I need to use my backup 7T if something happens to the Pixel...

I have been using a Pixel 5a I received as a promotional item for a couple months. I have to say I am pretty disappointed in the phone and the Pixel implementation of Android 13 overall. I guess I thought would share my experiences if somebody is considering a Pixel. I am coming from a One...

I am in process of trying to get my OnePlus 6T repaired on warranty. I am posting here because this applies to all OnePlus repair service. OnePlus repair service has become absolutely terrible! I had my phone repaired at OnePlus 3 months ago because of a cracked screen and had a great...

I have used Textra for a long time and over it had been pretty good. However their development team has been pretty non-responsive. I have reported a bug several times but have never gotten a response and the bug has never been fixed. The bug is on a dual SIM phone with 2 SIMs installed. If I...

Just wait. Eventually you will nick an edge and it will start pealing off on it's own. I nicked the top edge of mine after a couple months and it started pealing near the nick after a few days.

I also VPN'ed to Canada and got the update last night. The update failed once but when I did it again it updated fine. So far so good. Some changes here and there. I tried the split screen which works with some apps. Kinda cool. I do have a question. The Wake Screen when you pick up the...

My battery has gotten weaker in just 4 mo. Accubattery app says capacity is only 2986mah vs rating of 3400mah. Not good. My Honor 5X used to get over the battery rating using Accubattery even after 8 mo. Some Chinese battery manufactures make lower quality batteries that exhibit capacity drops...

My One plus 3t is doing this also. any explanation??
