    [UPDATE] Wifi Assistant Disabled by Verizon

    I got my Google Store Pixel on Tuesday and am using it with a VZW SIM and NDE63P. Google Connectivity Services showed up as an update in the Play store last night and Wifi Assistant was available to me this morning.

    After updating my Verizon Galaxy S6 to Marshmallow it is taking forever to get to a full charge. Do I need a new battery?

    Re: After updating my Verizon Galaxy s6 to Marshmallow it is taking forever to get to a full charge. I'm having the same problem. Fast charge is set to ON, but wireless charging takes significantly longer than wired. I'm using the same chargers; I didn't have any issues with them prior to the...

    Galaxy S6 Verizon Users: Best Texting App?

    Agreed. They look stupid and don't resize to match the size of the message font. I usually alternate between Messages+ and Textra. I like that Messages+ works over wifi and allows me to text and call from almost all of my devices, not just my S6, but the UI, including the pop up alerts, is...

    Verizon users... message + or Samsung's messages app?

    I switch between Textra and M+.

    Verizon software update

    Understood. The VZW essentially told me the same thing. I was just curious if yesterday's update was supposed to have any impact on signal notifications or not...cause it certainly didn't on my device. :) My dBm is within the expected ranges, so I guess I should stop worrying about how many...

    Verizon software update

    I'd contacted VZW Tech Support a couple of weeks ago about my signal strength. After unsuccessfully trying a new SIM card, I was told my signal was within acceptable ranges and the issue may be software related (i.e., the signal strength is misrepresented in my notification bar). The rep said...

    Tab S and Amazon Fire stick

    I use my Tab with both. Did you have specific questions? I'm not sure about the mirroring...I don't have a need for that. I think you can mirror with a Chromecast.

    Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 keeps "forgetting" my google account and settings

    I had this problem, too, so I tried my luck with Samsung Tech Support. The rep tried to have me test the battery; when I asked what the battery had to do with my software settings, he choked and told me to send it in to be repaired. I sent it, hoping there was finally a solution to the issue...

    Unable to Unlock Device with Google Voice Typing

    Earlier today, I thought I'd changed my input from the Kii keyboard to the Google one, but apparently I changed it to Google voice typing. I have a password lock and am now unable to unlock the device. When I tap the password box, Google voice opens and makes the beep noise to indicate I can...

    Anybody use a mouse with your Android Tablet and/or Phone, tell me about your experience.

    I use both a bluetooth mouse and keyboard with my Nexus 10 and have no complaints. It took me a while to get used to long pressing things with a mouse, but small learning curve there. Anyone know of a way to use a smartphone as a wifi or bluetooth mouse with my tablet? I searched for mouse...
