    Can't get phone to ring on incoming calls

    For a while placing the phone in 3G mode instead of 4G corrected this problem. Then, without any other major changes that stopped working. I then was exploring Google Voice App and call forwarding settings. I found that reverting the unanswered call forward (voice mail) setting from GV back to...

    Can't get phone to ring on incoming calls

    Upgraded the the latest radio image 3.87, but it did not fix issue. Will also try downgrading radio.

    Can't get phone to ring on incoming calls

    App immediately force closes itself on Oreo 8.1 on Nexus 6P. Bummer. This problem really sucks... Thanks for posting, hope it helps some people.

    Can't get phone to ring on incoming calls

    Same problem. I have tried every fix I can find. Do not disturb cycling during/after call, disable battery optimization for phone and messenger, reboot, change from LTE to 3G. The only thing that worked for me was the last, but data was 25x slower... Lots of discussion here at Google...

    Truly no good video players (review/test comparison included)

    Most of these players are playing the 5.1/6 channel audio streams. Not always playing them well but playing them surprisingly enough.

    Truly no good video players (review/test comparison included)

    ^ I ran QQplayer and yxplayer through this small battery of tests. They both performed poorly. Neither performed as good as Moboplayer. Do realize I am somewhat torture testing these apps. I wanted to find an app that can play very large files (2-4 GB) with high video and audio bit rates and...

    Truly no good video players (review/test comparison included)

    It does not even come close to playing everything I tested. I should have listed the players though. Stock HTC player Moboplayer Vplayer RockPlayer.

    Truly no good video players (review/test comparison included)

    In trying to find a top notch video player for my Tbolt I was disappointed by the lack of good information. Posts on the topic in various forums were either quite old or simply opinion with no backing evidence. As such I picked what appeared to be the top 3 video player options and tested them...

    New Radio for ThunderBolt - LTE/3G Handoff fix - Battery Drain - More!

    +1. I really want to know about this. Sounds like something that contributes to battery life issues for sure. Sounds loosely like that sensor is active when it is not supposed to be. Maybe the orientation sensor turns the proximity sensor on and off but now even when the phone is flat the...

    TB and Juice Defender BETA.

    I had some worse battery life with JD than without. However, there have been multiple beta's released since the Tbolt launched and I have faithfully accepted/installed all of them. I do believe with the last few the improvement is noticeable. IIRC the company also explicitly stated that a Tbolt...

    Has anyone managed to get 2-10 mAh power consumption?

    I am in a "border 4G" area. About 5-8 Mbit/s 4G speed. Thus I do automatically revert to 3G sometimes. I've heard others mention this as a possible battery using culprit but I have not tested it myself. Would be easy I guess, the full 4G area close to my house is strong and I can get 30+ Mbits/s...

    Has anyone managed to get 2-10 mAh power consumption?

    Repeated test everything the same except with WiFi and Mobile network turned on. Background data enable but sync turned off. Remaining consumption (after the same 6 hour period) was 72%. It may have been concluded but the problem on this thing is the radio when idle. I guess I should try to...
