Thank you!

I bought a brand new Pixel 7 this week and am deeply impressed by the battery. My old Pixel 3 was getting so bad that a half hour of steady use would cause it to demand a recharge, which was the main reason I upgraded to the Pixel 7. So far, I've only had to recharge the Pixel 7 once since it...

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I finally got the file transfers to work by using yet another cable that I hadn't tried previously. I'm darned if I understand why the hardware should be so sensitive but that cleared up the problem.

I bought a new Pixel 7 on Tuesday to take advantage of the Black Friday sales. I was able to transfer nearly all of my data from my old phone, a Pixel 3 to the new phone, by connecting them via a USB-C to USB-C cable and following the instructions that displayed as soon as the new phone powered...

For what it's worth, this problem seems to have resolved itself. I did not remove the existing Gallery and I did not install a new Gallery but the other day the cameras started working again. I can see the pictures in the Gallery again. I didn't really *do* anything, aside from copying what...

Before I go as far as the full factory reset, can you tell me what would happen if I simply reinstall *without* first removing the current program? Will the reinstall simply refresh the code of the original copy and make sure it is 100% intact? Or will the reinstall fail unless you first remove...

Thanks very much for the suggestion Chris, but when I tried it, I didn't see Camera in the "ALL" category. In fact, I don't see it under any category, including Running, even when the camera had been started. I went all the way up and down the ALL list and didn't see anything that looked like...

I've had my HTC 320 phone for a week now and my battery consumption seems to have gone way up today. After using it intermittently all day yesterday, the power was still over 50% at bedtime. Today, using the phone somewhat less, it was down to 23% by early evening. Then I charged it fully and it...

Basic installation question about permissions I'm new to the Android world and I've noticed that when I install an app, it generally warns me that it's going to need access to various parts of the system, like Contacts or whatever. To the right of each item is a V shape that initially points...

I don't actually know the answer to your question but if your phone is anything like mine (HTC Desire 320), it has very few ports/connectors on it. In my case, I've got one miniUSB connector on it. If I had to print something from my phone, I expect I'd either have to use my miniUSB to USB...

I have a new HTC Desire 320. This is my first Android device. I'm not sure how low I should let my battery go before I charge it. Also, should it always be charged to 100%? I suppose we're well past the days where batteries had "memories" and would be damaged by being charged too often or not...

Avoid data usage The plan I'm on currently doesn't have any data and I'd like to leave it that way for now, if I can. I'm content to download apps, read email, and so forth only when I'm home or somewhere that has free WiFi. How can I accomplish that? In other words, what settings do I have to...

I'm looking for the best free anti-malware software I can find for my new Android 4.4.2 phone. I'm new to the Android world so would welcome any suggestions.
