    Now available unlocked as Amazon Prime Exclusive

    Just wanted to post that the E5 Play is now available unlocked on Amazon as a Prime Exclusive phone for $124.99. Interestingly, it seems to be the version without a fingerprint sensor, and only works on AT&T and T-Mobile...

    Backed up photos aren't sorted into folders

    Try tapping the hamburger menu button (three lines in the top-left corner) and then tap "Device folders". This will show the photos by the folders that are on your phone. If Snapseed puts the photos into a specific folder (which I'm not sure of as I've never used it), you should be able to see it.

    Is there a way to create shortcut to Close All

    I normally don't close the recent apps unless something running is obviously taking a toll on my battery or performance (Shazam used to be a battery drainer if you left it open in the background, not sure if it still is though ). Like they said, most of the time, it's better for the OS to use as...

    What's your earliest Android OS?

    4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich, on an awful single-core Chinese tablet that froze up all the time and would be unusable today. It did get an update to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean, though, which ultimately didn't help things. Quite honestly, I can deal with slight lag on my tablet or one of my phones, because I...

    Why is my messages app still the old kind?

    If Android Messages is what you're referring to, then this was apparently a widespread change that affected everyone. https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2018/8/18/17747018/google-reverts-android-messages-update

    I have a Samsung Galaxy s5 and it won't update to Nougat

    The S5 doesn't have an official Nougat update, unless you meant a different Galaxy phone. The last update was Marshmallow, so it sounds like you're at the end of the cycle anyway. The only way to get Nougat would be to install a custom ROM on it.

    How to change browser

    You should be able to install another browser from the Play Store and disable Chrome with no issues. When you open a link from an app, it should open in the new browser instead. When you have more than one browser on the phone, it'll ask you which one you want to use when you open a link. In...

    Can not find the app drawer on my new LG phone

    Try going to Settings > Home screen > Select Home, and then tap on "Home with separate apps list". That's on an LG I have running Nougat.

    Moto G4 Play XT1607

    They go for about $50-70 used on eBay, currently. As for clearing everything, just do a factory reset from Settings > Backup & reset. It removes everything from the phone, including your Google Account. Everything that's saved to your Google Account (cloud photos, contacts, etc.) stays in the...

    Will my Moto G4 Play get Nougat?

    Well, there were issues. A short while after doing the initial update, I started getting persistent System UI crashes (where it would go black and reboot to the lock screen), which I couldn't determine the root cause of. Fortunately, a factory reset seems to have fixed it. Also, there is now...

    Does LG G7 support Daydream?

    Doing some research, it appears to not be compatible. The G7 has an LCD screen, while Daydream is only supported on OLED screens.

    Can't identify this logo

    If you have a Google search bar on your home screen, it will also have the always-listening for "OK Google" whenever you're on your home screen. To get rid of that, just remove the search bar.

    Microsoft app (Excel, Word, One Note) stopped working.

    Is there enough space on your phone? Crashing apps and other bugs can happen sometimes when the phone is very low on space. You might also want to try a cache partition wipe. Here are instructions: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-29236
