    how to share a widget from on android device to another?

    This app does not seem to do anything useful. I have widgets I need to transfer to a replacement phone. I find one. I select it. I send it. On the new phone I receive it. ONLY thing that happens is that the app turns off the wifi on the receiving phone, and nothing gets transferred.

    First track of album in music directory but music players cannot find it

    First music track / mp3 exists in phone but in media players listed as unknown I used WMP12 under Win 10 to rip and sync an album to my S8+ Android 9. If you look in Music/artist/album-name the first track in the album is where it's supposed to be, properly named - if hooked up to your PC you...

    2 S8+'s can't remember Cablevision / Optimum wifi automatic login

    Our 2 new Verizon S8+'s work well. On home wifi near the AC router, mine showed better then 200 MPBS - same download speed as my tower PC could handle. Of course I also use 'public' wifi. At work, we have 'att guest' that works pretty well; once per day you have to use Firefox to accept terms...

    Settings menu bug/issue (can't scroll)

    I'll try App Cache Cleaner later and see if the Settings problem comes back, but I think this is more related to the update.

    Settings menu bug/issue (can't scroll)

    Fixed the settings broken problem I had! Fantastic! Now I can do the software update on my wife's S8+ also and if the Settings problem hits I know what to do. Now, if only I could figure out a fix for the GMAIL inbox count having disappeared from the GMAIL shortcut. Thanks!

    Settings menu bug/issue (can't scroll)

    Just started happening to me; I'd done the recent security update on the S8+ I picked up Saturday. Have not done it for my wife and she does not have the problem. ALSO, the GMAIL shortcut no longer shows UNREAD count. Thanks Samsung!

    turbo charger not working?

    In our case VZW replaced the phone by overnight and the replacement seems fine so far. Only problem is I can't recreate the Contacts widget (the one that opened PHONE into the Directory).

    turbo charger not working?

    Let me try again. Verizon sells accessories for the Droid Turbo 2. They include a matching case under the Verizon name, and a QI desktop charger base, also under the Verizon name. I love these cases by Verizon; snug, great kickstand built in. But I found that the T2 in its Verizon case and...

    turbo charger not working?

    I discovered that the Droid Turbo 2 will NOT charge in the Verizon QI desktop charger that Verizon sold for the original Turbo and now the Turbo 2 if you have it in a case. Unless you put it upside down or on its side. The coils in the charger just don't match up properly to the newer charger...

    turbo charger not working?

    That Ampere app is nice; tells me quickly and easily what the phone, for whatever reason, no longer does - that I am or am not hooked up to a turbo charger. Thanks!

    Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo VoLTE or Simultaneous Voice and Data

    Re: Dropping data when on a call That doesn't make any sense. A huge point of 4g was to have voice and data at the same time. How could Moto release a high end phone without this working?

    Does the Turbo go into dock mode when using a dock in a car?

    What a waste. Big use for today's phones is navigation; kind of hard to do without a viable dock. What is Moto thinking?

    Questions about purchasing the DROID TURBO from Verizon? Ask here!

    Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me How can Moto and Verizon, knowing that these phones are used for navigation and in car calling, not provide a proper car dock for such an expensive and high end phone? Not being able to navigate takes away a huge advantage of...

    Does the Turbo go into dock mode when using a dock in a car?

    What car dock? Last I checked, Moto still had not released a car dock for Turbo, leaving you to have to pick some big, clunky generic car dock that probably blocks controls. Biggest thing stopping me from upgrading from my Droid Razr Maxx is the lack of a car dock.

    Sync Windows Media Player Playlists to Samsung Galaxy S3?

    Re: Sync Windows Media Player Playlists to Moto Droid Razr Maxx I've got the Moto Droid Razr Maxx, and I use WMP to copy my music to my phone, and I copied my playlist directory to my phone. I couldn't tell whether the phone was using the SD card or internal storage so I copied everything to...
