    Can't See

    If memory serves there was some discussion a few months back where users where running into this, seems to be either an Android 12 bug or possibly Google decided this is the new hotness. I don't have Android 12 so I couldn't tell you how to turn it off, if that's possible.

    PSA: You probably want to opt out of this Verizon program

    Pro tip: make sure to pop into Custom Experience Settings and hit that Reset button before you disable/block it or Verizon will continue to use the data they’ve already collected as the option will unavailable after disabling. Also all this needs to done individually to each line of service...

    Screen protector saves the day

    Why is it so difficult to set up a new Android device.

    Why is it so difficult to set up a new Android device.

    What features and improvements are you most looking forward to in Android 11?

    Re: [*NEW*] OxygenOS update 10.3.1 for OnePlus 6 & 6T Good call. I don't know that the Oxygen Updater people are here to defend themselves. 😁

    OxygenOS update 10.3.1 for OnePlus 6 & 6T

    Re: [*NEW*] OxygenOS update 10.3.1 for OnePlus 6 & 6T I'm sticking with the normal method - I tried Updater and wound up doing a factory reset over Christmas break.
