    I'm almost never where it says I am!

    I use the WeatherBug app, which has the same feature, it seems to track fine. Perhaps give that a try to see if it's maybe just the AccuWeather app that's the problem.

    How to turn phone on, using voice command?

    Just say "Hey baby, your power button is just the right size..." or "your screen makes my knees buckle!"

    Why do i have dark horizontel lines and colored vertical lines al over my lg4 android?

    Assuming that you've pulled the battery and done a fresh start up, it is most likely a hardware problem.

    Battery life is getting worse on LG G4, just after replacing batteries.

    When I have had this it has turned out to be a "runaway" app. As Belodion suggests above check the battery stats after it has run down and you should see the culprit there.

    How do I change my "wake screen" settings to only use the power button to wake

    Smart lock will also do this if you have it set to unlock while on your person.

    A warning! Don't buy LG products!

    My LG TV works great. My G4 is the best (least buggy, most reliable) phone I've ever had. My LG dishwasher is quiet and cleans well.

    How can i stop my LG G4 from being constantly connected to wifi?

    Turn off WiFi. There are widgets that allow you to do that right from the home screen.

    how to never have text messages delete unless i delete them on g4

    Every time I get a new phone the first app I install is called "SMS Backup+". It backs up every SMS, MMS, and phone log entry to labels in Gmail, including attached pictures in MMS. I have every text and phone call log back to 2010 in my Gmail. Being Gmail, they are searchable too. It can...

    KnockOn Issues

    For me, "knock on" works sometimes, sometimes I have to double-knock it 2 or 3 times. "Knock off" always works. Here is my theory. The current version of Android tries to optimize battery use by putting apps to sleep when the phone screen is off. I think that whatever code supports knock on is...

    Disable full charge notification

    On mine if you turn down the "touch feedback and system" volume to zero you won't hear the battery full sound. I use Tasker to turn off the notification light and set the System volume to zero during the night so I can charge at night and no sounds or lights bother my sleep. Works every night.

    Tab S2 turning itself on

    Out of curiosity, why power down the tablet? I only turn mine off when I'm transporting it packed in luggage or something like that. I have a cover for mine and when I close the cover it goes to sleep (dark but still on) and when I open the cover it instantly comes to life. I leave it that way...

    clueless moment

    I love the fingerprint scanner! In addition to logging into the tablet, both my password manager (lastpass) and my bank's app support it. Makes me wish my phone had it too.

    High battery drain problem

    When the battery is near depleted, go to "settings - Battery & power saving - battery usage", go to the bottom of the screen and see if you have an app that is eating power (ie at/near the top of the list). When I have had this problem in the past the culprit has usually been obvious here (not...
