    Phone is in airplane mode with wifi on, but time zone is not updating?

    But that doesn't have to be the only source. As stated in the first post, iOS devices have been able to get network time via wifi for years.

    Phone is in airplane mode with wifi on, but time zone is not updating?

    Hm, that's interesting, since that directly contradicts what @williams448 said. Although what he said seemed a little odd, since there are many Android devices without cellular connections. Does this mean all Android devices, whether or not they have a cellular connection, cannot change their...

    Phone is in airplane mode with wifi on, but time zone is not updating?

    That's really interesting. I wonder why Android requires a cellular connection to do so? How do Android tablets without cellular capability update their time zones? Do all Android tablet users have to update their tablets' time zones manually?

    Phone is in airplane mode with wifi on, but time zone is not updating?

    I am traveling out of the country and my S6 is in airplane mode with wifi on and connected to a wifi network in a different country. However, the time zone is not updating, even though the phone knows I'm not in the Pacific time zone anymore (in Google Maps, it shows that I am in a different...

    Can't get rid of keyboard in Calculator app

    Thank you for confirming that! Depending on how many apps you have and how you have your home screens organized, searching for an app can be faster than opening it using other methods. I'm glad you were able to learn about a new alternative!

    But he was the first one to respond with the sentiment of, "why do you care about the issue?", so wouldn't he have been the first one to set the tone?

    Thank you for confirming the glitch as well. I would imagine it's a glitch with the calculator app since I haven't been able to find another app that this happens with. Then again, there are thousands and thousands of apps out there, so who knows. And in this case, the "mechanic" would be a...

    Can't get rid of keyboard in Calculator app

    At least with @Hgouk confirming the issue, we can probably safely start to assume it is indeed a glitch. Does it happen for you on your phone as well?

    Thank you for confirming the glitch! As to your first point, with all due respect, his first response was not a solution. Did he ask a related question? Sure. Was it a solution to the problem? Tangential, at best. Let's say you have a car that is having engine trouble and you take it to...

    Can't get rid of keyboard in Calculator app

    It should be, "meaning of", not "meaning off". Additionally, I did not realize we were engaged in a "battle of wits"; I'm not sure where that came from. However, if you have a solution or ideas on one, please contribute!

    Can't get rid of keyboard in Calculator app

    Firstly, please at least attempt to answer the question or contribute towards an answer. The issue is not that I am looking for the best way to open the Calculator app. The issue is that when opening the Calculator app via search, the QWERTY keyboard obscures the app, rendering it unusable...

However, if I search for the Calculator app using the search field from the home screen and open it that way, they QWERTY keyboard is overlaid on the bottom half of the calculator...

    I think you might be posting in the wrong thread; this thread is about the QWERTY keyboard being overlaid on the Calculator app when it is opened via search.
