    Gear S3 will not recognize LG Tone Bluetooth Headset in Call transfer Options

    Same issue, LG V20, LG Tone (sport edition), and Samsung Gear S3 Frontier. Guess I'm going back to my LG G Watch R :(

    Anybody Try the Google Now Launcher on their M8?

    Yes, I have over 6 screens on my GNL side, and 5 on my BFL (blink feed). Just drag something to the right, or fill up your current page, enable the option to auto-add the app to the homes creen and download an app, it will automatically create the new necessary screen.

    Anybody Try the Google Now Launcher on their M8?

    It's not a separate download. If you have 4.4.2, you already have it installed. Just look through your app drawer to locate it "Google+ Settings" is the name.

    Anybody Try the Google Now Launcher on their M8?

    Oh...I did not know they added those two settings "From any screen" and "From Lock Screen". Works great!! Nice!! Thank you dyphx! That was my #1 reason that I wanted to use the GNL, plug I prefer the rounded button to get to my apps, vs. the square basic one that mimics the epic launcher and...

    Anybody Try the Google Now Launcher on their M8?

    So explain how you got the "OK GOOGLE" working in HTC Blink Feed launcher, without installing a 3rd party addon to recognize this? I just set mine back to Blink Feed Laucher and at the home page said "Ok Google" and to my surprise...no wait...same results...NOTHING! The only way to get google...

    M8 Charging Issues: is it me or do I have a bum phone?

    So I noticed over the weekend, my girlfriend and I were taking a road trip, she has the GS4 and I have the HTC M8. Her car charger was not providing enough juice to fill the battery while she was using the GPS. It was draining her battery, very slowly, but after a 2 hour drive it drained over...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    So the issue is resolved and have determined that the solution was certainly the fact that the app named "Abstract Games", which I had installed, was setting itself as a home screen launcher, but has nothing to do with it. Having removed this app has corrected my issues and now whichever...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    Yes. I actually mentioned having done this and is the area where I noticed the "Abstract Games" listed as a launcher...which gave me the idea to remove that app altogether. - - - Updated - - - Was going to be done last night (factory reset). However, since removing that game "Abstract Games"...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    No, I got the free version of Epic. But if I had to use an alternate one other than google now launcher, I would likely go with Epic. Definitely seemed very customizable and packed full of icon packs. It is very strange how the developers of Abstract Games didn't notice or realize that...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    I just tested the Epic Launcher, looked nice with the customizations it can do...but the same issue happened after I set it as my default launcher...my phone still asked me what launcher to use when I clicked the home button. Although...I think I might have just stumbled across something that...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    I have tried the Google Now Launcher from 3 different sources, all showed the same version of the launcher, but all acted the same way. My conclusion there was that all 3 sources had the identical code for the google now launcher, and therefore I had the same results when installing them. I...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    It is not an approved app for the M8, it says incompatible with the device, when you try to grab it from the google store. Now if you grab it from another source, such as this site on another thread, it will work as long as you have the developer option enabled to "allow installations from...

    Google Now Launcher on M8 Never Remembers Default Launcher

    And crap...it just asked me again what launcher to use. So everything thus far has not worked. Any other suggestions or tips to help my silly M8 remember the default launcher?
