    Why do I hear no sound when I call "ok Google?"

    Yes a BIG thank you, I have an Asus ZE551ML and all of a sudden the 'Ok Google' notification sound stopped working and vibrated instead. I've been going through every setting possible in trying to find a solution but with no luck. My phone came with Clean Master pre-installed and I get a message...

    Be concerned about Clean Master's data collection and privacy practices?

    What has RAM got to do with the post by jacb09? He's asking about alternative apps which have nothing to do with RAM.

    Screen On Time Inquiry (Not what you think)

    I've looked into this subject thoroughly and have come to the conclusion there is no conclusive answer to how to assess your SOT, there are so many other factors to consider that it's just not possible. I have an Asus ZenFone 2 ZE551ML with an Intel Atom 2.3ghz processor and 4 gbs of RAM. I'm a...
