    I get that Android is trying to save my ears but...

    My max volume setting was off by default. Even more annoying than the message that high volume might hurt my ears (which I do get on occasion) has been the volume suddenly going down to nothing for no apparent reason. I'm listening to a Netflix video, not music, and often the volume goes off on...

    Why am I getting a message pop up sign-in failed for my email?

    This just started happening to me on my Galaxy S5. That annoying bell rang at 2:45 am. I did change my outlook password using my browser on my laptop yesterday. Now my phone says sign-in failed and this bell rings. It says my server password has changed, (it has,) but when I put the new...

    How do I change the number of times my phone rings before going to Voicemail?

    :D It works on my samsung galaxy S5 Android 6.0.1, with AT&T Wireless. Thanks (using 2 asterisks before the 61 in the reset call.)

    Can the phone ring time be extended?

    thanks, joesf for the link, and Liz Blake for detailing the steps. I have AT&T, Samsung Galaxy S5, and Android 6.0.1, and this method worked perfectly!! I had previously called AT&T about lengthening the ring-time, and support told me it couldn't be done. As far as anyone hanging up before...

    AZZ cardfile

    I see it's 2 yrs since the question was raised, but thought I'd chime in. I use many separate azzCardfile files for various kinds of contacts, recipes, subscription tracking, and so on. While there is no azzCardfile app for Android, it is possible to export to an rtf file. Then I open that...

    can't send group text message can't send group text message

    Still can't get group text messages to work using the AT&T Messages app - - even though the right phone number was selected. In the AT&T app, it doesn't do any TO defaulting. As you type the name, it offers contacts and all of the numbers, so you select the recipidnt. Still a text message to...

    can't send group text message can't send group text message

    I found the problem cause and can easily work around! Yay! (btw phone is new from AT&T.) The problem is that when I add recipient to make it a group msg, the phone number that goes in the TO field is the first alphabetically by category for that person's phone numbers. So, "Home" comes...

    can't send group text message can't send group text message

    I tried switching my default msg app from AT&T to Samsung and I was abld to attach a pic to a txt. At set-up, AT&T recommended their msging because of cloud bkup and access from tablet or pc. Had never thought to use anything else. Will now test grp txts. Posted via the Android Central App

    Ringtone volume constantly going back to low after lollipop

    I can't locate this setting. I have nothing called MY DEVICES. It's a Samsung Galaxy S5, from AT&T. Desperate, I'm missing calls. When I press the left-side button, it shows volume at about 10%. I increase to 100%, but it goes down again on its own without my knowing it. Posted via the...
