Last year I changed phones. I had done the proper steps for a whatsapp backup but lost a month's data. For some reason those messages didn't come back. Corrupted data or something I guess. I saved those backup files though. I have a bunch of files (5 or so) that were in the whatsapp directory...

I'm moving from an S6 Edge to a newer S6. The Edge is having all sorts of issues so time to move on. Anyway I tried moving whatsapp last night and although the contacts came through I lost all my chat history. I don't know for sure that all the contacts came through but whatever. The important...

I'm not using my old Samsung S5 anymore because it's gotten so slow. I've gotten another phone but I'd also like to reset my S5 to see if that'll make it faster (will it?). But for some reason backing up is proving to be so difficult!! My new phone is an HTC. I tried Smart Connect or whatever...

No I do have a wifi switch. It just seems to get turned off every time I exit the screen. Here's the screens. When I goto Settings, this is what I see: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet As you can see, Wifi is off. If I long press on it this is what I see Imgur: The most awesome...

I installed Nova Launcher. It had some settings I didnt like, such as having to swipe up to access all the icons (the app drawer?). I changed that to 'press button' instead, and now I cant access the drawer at all. All I can do is what's on my home screen. No whatsapp, no settings, no nothing. I...

When I goto Settings / Wireless & Networks, clicking on Wifi just shows me its off. No further settings right there. If I then click on Advanced I'm not seeing anything relevant to my own wifi. Airplane mode is off.

I have a Samsung S5 running Lollipop. I've only had it for a few months, since Jan, but its gotten pretty slow. Is there anything I can do to improve its performance?

A few weeks ago I installed an SD card for the first time. Not very familiar with how all this works. Now I have a folder called DCIM2 on the memory card. And I also have 12 pictures in the camera directory on the memory card. This is on top of the DCIM and Camera directories on my local...

OK did so. I'll see if that changes anything. I dont think it would solve it per se, as I've used CCleaner a number of times, and I imagine that deletes the cache. But I dont know for sure. But I also dont know what exactly recreates the issue, so I cant test it right now. I'll see if it comes...

I have an S5 running Lollipop. When I first got my phone I had this weird thing keep happening, where the phone would keep turning off wifi, the calls would get switched to Priority calls only, and the screen would keep going to auto, which would be pretty dim. I would change all this, and it...

Sorry I missed this. As far as I know no power savings settings are on. Thanks.
