    Faulty Device or software bug?

    I bought a Mate 20 Pro on preorder and noticed within a few days a seemingly non-responsive part of the screen that was an intermittent issue. Basically every now and again (often enough it’s annoying but not every time) after I unlock the display I am unable to select any app icons in the...

    Android Auto confirmed working fine on S8+

    LOL you still can't confirm it based on just one person... but anyway I have to say for no reason that I can tell my Android Auto is no not disconnecting... strange but good. It could have been an update to whatever caused the crash.

    S8 Issues with Android Auto and disconnects?

    I have an S8+ and I am connecting it to my VW car headunit and it is at random intervals disconnecting and reconnecting. There isn't a pattern to it; it may be fine for a whole journey or disconnect every 30 seconds. Looking at the phone screen I have seen two messages which may hint at what...

    Android Auto BUGS thread! Let's talk about the bugs...

    It's the car microphone - whether the issue is down to AA or VW I don't know. However this isn't the first wierdness that has happened between AA and VW - I believe one of the first things I mentioned was that in my car it didn't always connect to AA - it would require plugging in multiple...

    Android Auto BUGS thread! Let's talk about the bugs...

    The four dots are because the phone cant hear you. It is a microphone issue. I have it my VW Golf R too. It isn't restricted to any one app- it just doesn't hear me sometimes.

    Samsung Galaxy S8 / S8+ Case & Accessory Picture Thread.

    Alcantara is super nice. Grippy and soft and the part surrounding the camera is metal. I'd strongly recommend it.

    Issues with AA on Nexus 6P and VW MIB II Head Unit

    2 and 3 seem to be internet related issues; depending on where you are it will take longer or shorter to load. It is of course possible the app or phone is having a moment where its being buggy and just needs to be quit or the phone turned on and off. It happens and just because its plugged into...

    Anyone thinking of getting one...or three?

    I agree; great performance and easy to set up. Massively extended the range of my Wifi so the Outdoor Nest Cams do not cut out anymore and I have wifi in the driveway and that is on 2 units just like before 3 is overkill. Just a shame the actual connection I have is so slow.

    Has to be router (not just AP)?

    Hold up! That's true but also not true... confused? (I feel like I'm channeling Jerry now). So Google wifi gives your devices IP addresses in a range that NO other router does. One of the reasons they want you to use is as the only router is to avoid IP address conflicts and also maximise the...

    Anyone thinking of getting one...or three?

    I have 6... I bought a 3 pack for parents home and my place; but I only needed 2 in my parents and I imagine 2 at most at mine. Which means I will have 2 spare for wifi emergencies in my car at all times! Lol Amazon have it as "ship when available" so place an order there. They wont charge...

    anyone able to find 3pack in stock somewhere?

    I would place an order with Amazon.com. It's not in stock but they will ship when it is. I placed an order for two 3-packs on the 6th December and they arrived on 28th and today. An Amazon don't charge till they ship either so no harm!

    Anyone thinking of getting one...or three?

    I am in the UK. I have ordered two 3 packs from amazon.com. They are showing as unavailble but amazon told me they expect stock by the 20th and volunterily without me asking upgraded international shipping to 2 days and removed the shipping charges! I wasn't even complaining. I just asked the...
