Thanks for this app. I just installed it on my phone, then set up a new gmail account as both the sender and receiver, and notifications for incoming SMS work fine. I do not intend to reply to SMS from the email account. I have other options for that, but this means I can be using any of my...

I'll try to get some photos and video of this phone Monday. I'll also check to see if the "tongue" inside the micro-USB port is moving itself. Even if the frame is slightly oversized, it still seems like that part that goes into the little slot on the micro-USB plug would prevent movement...

Re: shamed android enthusiast battles malfunctioning micro-USB port The phone seemed to charge fine on the USB cable in the shop even though the connection could click around.

shamed android enthusiast battles malfunctioning micro-USB port I recently advised a friend to get a Nexus 6 instead of an iPhone 6 Plus. I went into the shop with her, and after the phone had been set up, I plugged in my SlimPORT and USB OTG adapters to see if they worked, but immediately I...

I'm using LINE and Viber. I like how easy both make it to send location links, voice or video snippets, photos, or drawings in the case of Viber.* I do have one question on them both: Will either of them suggest contacts in my address book to other contacts? Will they try to introduce my...

I'm having a similar problem, though it is all with my accounts and a couple of old phones. I've tried to remove one google account (it was a second account, there for gmail and contacts, I guess), but two of my old phones, both on android 4.1.2, keep popping up the same "sign-in error" message...

I have my S5 set to fingerprint unlock, so what I'm thinking might be happening with me is that I slide my phone into my thigh pocket, screen inward, button at the top of the pocket, then when I snap the button to close the pocket, this presses the phone's home button against my thigh. Then the...

I'm having the same problem, though I don't think it is because of texts for me. I get very few of them, and my S5 is turning on multiple times per day in my pocket (thigh pocket of cargo pants). I thought it was because of other apps (Kaiten mail, viber, etc.), but Redwood Carlos might be...

Could someone at least help me to know if Tasker can do something? I don't need anyone to make a full profile, but I am new to Tasker and unsure if this will even work. I want to turn on the photo sync features of both Google Photos and Dropbox when I am connected to my home router and on AC...

Hi, I'm about to go to an old fort, and I want to make photospheres of the area just above the walls. I have a tripod mount (a flimsy one, but I'll make it work safely): Free shipping Dedicated Table Desk Bed Clamp Mount Holder Stand Tripod for Google Nexus 7 2 2nd Generation-in Tablet PC...

If a tablet doesn't have a digitizer made for an active stylus, then they won't work. You'll need a capacitive stylus (one of the usually stubby crayon-type styli that mimics the human finger.) My S Pen (wacom technology on Samsung) does not work on my ThinkPad Tablet (TPT) nor my Nexus 7 2012...

On my Nexus 7, the location is Android/obb/clockworkmod/backup

They are ugly only if you are looking for a slim case that mirrors the Note's design. If you're looking to make your note durable and don't mind adding bulk, then the cases are pretty nice, imo.

no market feedback/evals, though This method does not allow for evaluations of the applications, though. One of my apps, namazu, just gave me a 30-second warning of last night's earthquake, telling the distance and magnitude. When it hit here, I knew how bad it would become and could relax and...

long press -- update -- works! I've been having the same problem for a few weeks (aldiko was the first or second app for this to happen to with me). It does seem to be random as to which apps are not found. After a reboot, google maps was found whereas before it wasn't, for example. I have...
