    Why am I not getting notifications when my phone's screen is off?

    I hate to say it, but yes that would be the next step. For future reference AVG is non harmful (I don't find it helpful either, but it's not hurting anything) Clean Master I would avoid. Does your device have a SD card? It's possible for a corrupted file to alter device behaviour. If you do...

    dont know if i should have my location on or off and what is sync? what are widgits for

    Location is important for things like Google Now and Search to bring up accurate results, as wells as Maps and even third party apps. It shouldn't use up much battery the way it is designed now. It's also important if you lose your phone and want to find/lock/erase it via Android Device...

    Facebook not giving me the option to edit my comments long press not working

    Are you by chance a beta tester for the FB app? I know I had many more issues when I was testing than I do now. There isn't much you can do except report feedback to FB. It's a shame how such a big company, social media no less, can fail so epic-ally on their Android app.

    Contacts not syncing with Google

    Go into settings, accounts and sync, tap your Google account, and then you should see the options of what to sync. If you've synced there, and still nothing check online to see if your contacts are in Gmail.

    Why won't my phone download any apps on Google Play?

    Re: why won't my phone download any apps on google play Without knowing the specifics of the error or your device, it's hard to troubleshoot. I'd say start with a reboot and make sure you have adequate data connectivity. If that doesn't work, go to menu, settings, apps, all apps, google play...

    Does T-Mobile wifi calling work with an Asus Zenfone 2?

    Re: does t mobile wifi calling work with asus zenfone 2 No typically WiFi calling is only supported if T-Mobile actually supports the device. This phone is unlocked so it won't have WiFi Calling.

    Samsung S3 mini- wont tether with Acer laptop

    Have you renamed the new device a different hotspot name and new password? I know Windows gets easily confused when that occurs. I would try removing the previous network and renaming the new device if that is the case.

    Re: does Google scan email accounts other than Gmail? You could always use a third party email app such as Yahoo, Outlook, K-9, whatever fits your particular needs. Honestly I get adds pushed to my Yahoo and Outlook email on my PC via their email clients. That's what we get for having free...
