    How can i enable clipboards for my Samsung galaxy on 5

    To get more functionality out of Android's native chipboard function you need a clipboard manager app from playstore. The native function only copies one thing at a time, and is overwritten every time you copy something new. You can't do much more than copy & paste. But, with one of the...

    Did my Wi-Fi always on?

    I've posted in other threads on this issue, but what worked on my HTC m9, nougat 7.0, was to toggle Extreme Battery Saver on then off again. I tried everything imaginable too, at first. Another idea that struck me, was what I did after updating to nougat. I had to Reset All App Preferences, in...

    Wi-Fi always on, even in Airplane mode

    Hi all, It could very well be a glitch. I struggled many days to fix this doing all imaginable things. I posted in another thread here at AC, but what solved this Wi-Fi on always in Battery stats, was that I toggled Extreme Battery Saver on, then off. So far after several hours of power use, it...

    HTC 10 - Battery drain after Nougat Update

    When I updated my HTC m9 to nougat, I had a similar massive battery drain overnight, something like 75% lost in about 7 hours.. What solved it was I went into apps manager in main device settings, hit menu up top right, then "reset all app preferences" did a reboot (turn off completely and after...

    Battery Stats: Wifi Shows Always On, Even when Off

    I know this is an old thread, but my HTC m9 on Nougat was doing the very same thing. I tried all the recommended settings adjustments before coming here, and even put the phone into safe mode. Still, Wi-Fi in battery stats stayed constant. I even deleted cache and data for Google Play Services...

    Email address autofill / autosuggest not working on any mail app

    Hi, Glad to help. There is one other thing you and others might check, and that's in main settings, sync, google account, to see that you are syncing contacts. Usually, every category is on by default, and some you might choose to turn off, like Fitness, for instance if you don't use something...

    Help me pick a $200 budget phone

    Why not buy a refurbished flagship phone that will still get Oreo or better. Even the Galaxy S4 still has better hardware specs than a J7. But, newer models can be had for what your asking.

    Email address autofill / autosuggest not working on any mail app

    OK, I think I might know more of your problems. Did you import all your contact files to your Google account? When you go online, open or sign into your Google account. Easier on a PC, then find the contacts section, and explore the menu. At top are typically phone contacts, down near bottom...

    Email address autofill / autosuggest not working on any mail app

    Hi, sorry I forgot CTO subscribe to this thread, so I just checked and found your reply's. On Android, typically all contacts end up on the master list that you should have Google backing up. So let's start with your contacts app, or people app. At the top should be a button for phone book...

    Audio Recording?

    You know, if your stereo is new enough, you might get the audio Chromecast dongle, and then just broadcast the mp3 from phone to stereo directly. Or use Chromecast for TV to do the same. Lastly, you could plug phone into TV, or stereo using a corded method. A separate dongle might be needed here...

    Trying to Reinstall System

    I think you might have more luck getting help with this issue over at xda developer's website forums. I believe they have a section specific to Asus devices too. They have way more developers and ROM experts there.

    Try clearing all cache for apps before trying to enter a different geo location. Also, find a test site to make sure your VPN is connecting the way you think it should. Just search iptest, DNS Leak, and you find many sites to verify your change in IP address. You might clear cache after vpn...

    Audio Recording?

    Hi, Typically, most recording apps will save to mp3, which you can export the file, using the file manager app. I'm not totally familiar with Samsung, but file managers, either native or third party have a search function, so if the file is hard to find, use search in the file manager. As for...

    Problems after new Android 7.0 update on Samsung Galaxy s7

    This sounds like a complicated issue, and so, I recommend you visit the forums at XDA Developers, because of more people with ROM expertise. Do a search on their site first before posting questions. But, you might try reversing or reverting back to your back up, if, hopefully you made a complete...
