    The messenger is a cluster

    I would detail this, but unfortunately the messenger tool is so dysfunctional that it would take me 20 minutes to try to retrace the many ways in which it failed. I would have preferred to explain it in a direct chat with the very well-intentioned moderator who was trying to use that tool to...

    Motorola Moto E5 XT1920DL power auto-off while shooting video

    I had the same problem, and it wasn't due to battery - still had plenty of charge. And I concur - there doesn't seem to be anything in the manual explaining it, or indicating how I might change it.
