    DND is driving me nuts!

    Update: I removed the DND quick access tile out of the quick settings screen. It's been 36 hours since DND has enabled itself.

    DND is driving me nuts!

    I've looked into the driving mode. That's never been enabled on my Pixel 5 - and it's still off now but I still get DND intermittently enabling.

    DND is driving me nuts!

    My Pixel 5 running A13 is running sweet. Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaantastic baddery life, snappy etc etc. However, Do Not Disturb is is randomly coming on and I'm missing really important calls and messages. I've looked everywhere for a solution. I've checked everything, including deleting all...

    No signal notification sound - Pixel 5

    How much do you pay for your phones?

    Since I discovered the Pixel 5a can do anything my old iPhone 13 can do - I would never pay top dollar for a phone again. £500 is my limit these days. As far as prices of phones goes, sadly, as long as people are willing to pay crazy money, manufacturers will charge crazy prices.

    How much do you pay for your phones?

    Every year I paid top wack for the latest iPhone. Then someone showed me their Pixel. Now, I never pay more than £400 for a brand new Pixel that is as good as, and even better in some areas than my iPhones ever were. I'm currently rocking the Pixel 5a and have absolutely no intention of ever...

    Nova Launcher has issues

    Go into wallpapers again, select by pressing the same image that's showing as your current wallpaper and drag it to the centre of the screen. I had exactly the same with a picture of me and my doggo. After I set the image as wallpaper, it had move to the left. I did the above and now is all OK.

    Am I paranoid?

    Google has updated (on the 28th) and fixed the 'Carrier Services app' baddery drain. After updating, my baddery is back to amazing. Over the last 24 hours, 'Carrier Services' has only used 2%, instead of pre update, when it was using around 36 - 42% on average over a 24 period - which is nuts...

    5A in the UK - Yeh, about that!

    So, when Google announced the 5A, I was really looking forward to a small, but imho, a decent upgrade from my 4a5g. Imagine my utter disappointment to learn it's only being released in the US and Japan! Disappointment quickly diminished to 'ah well' I'll just wait for the 6 pro which WILL be...

    Quick question before I commit.

    Guys, I'm on the edge of buying the XL. Two questions if I may before I commit to buy. 1, Does Android still have that annoying ramp up ringtones and notifications thing going on? You know, when the phone starts ringing or a notification sound comes through, the first few seconds are very...
