Did you by chance look at the video I attached? It talks about not having a hot spot and how to tether with USB. And again, there are several videos on YouTube about this.

Have you searched online? I found several instances of that Cell2Jack. Something that may be more appealing since this is a home phone and your mom does not use the cell device or travel with it, I saw Consumer Cellular has a, they are calling the one I found an, Iris Home Base, but it looks...

Nope, it's real GPS just like, and probably better than, Garman and all of those. It would need to data to look up locations, get traffic updates, and stuff like that but it is a full blown GPS. I found this short that may help. If not search YouTube for tethering without hotspot.

If all you're doing to get this to charge is poking the plug a little harder, there is a better chance than not that you have something in the charging port or in the USB-C end of the cable. You say the cable is good, what are you basing this on? It works with other devices without this need to...

If you're sure that you're using Gboard it should appear as an app in your app drawer. When you say, "when I search for Gboard in settings, do you mean you went page by page looking for Gboard or did you use the search tool that appears at the top of the settings menu? If you're not, use the...

I understand if it isn't something you feel you should share. Everything where I am is proprietary and unique in my industry. It's a challenge for sure. I misinterpreted you saying, "rebooting it vs just clicking on the app doesn't make any difference", as meaning the app remained open after...

If you can restart the phone and it picks up where it left off, even reopening or resuming the app, you might consider adding a scheduled restart to maintain the phone's health. Maybe, every Sunday at midnight or something when it wouldn't be in demand or noticed. I'm kind of stuck on the...

Welcome to Android Central forums. As SpookDroid alluded to, some of this will depend on the devices being used. In general, most tablets have GPS built in. If yours is one, no need to connect to the phone at all for navigation. Just open and use the Google Maps app stand alone on the tab. If...

Welcome to Android Central forums. I'm late so I have a few questions. Are you ever doing anything to reboot the phone? How do you know the time? Is it that you don't remember if it's AM or PM or is it that you just know it's 3:18 and you're left to guess? Given you're only using the...

Yeah my Discover card just sent me a similar message. It was a free service they offered for carrying their card and I think I've had it since 2019, pretty sure it was before Covid, and yeah now we're just out in the cold. I'm wondering which is the true cause for these programs ending. Is it...

That sounds like it's limiting the scroll, going left to right vs up and down. Given there doesn't appear to be an actual setting for this, and if it's happening to everyone it isn't a bug, so for those who are bothered by this, reaching out to the developer is your best course of action...

@Bkdodger1, what happens when you click that collage? Again, it seems like it would be some kind of space saving thing so your feed isn't a long string of images.

Looking at your screenshot the images appear to be ones you received, does this also happen to images you send? How many images before it changes to this style? I've attaching a bunch of pics and mine are all single pics in a row like you described from before. Does this happen with 4 pics or...

This is a very specific issue, which is why I steered you towards Google's own support community. Google's own hardware and software, you'd think they'd have the answer. I did try to check out your link, but it goes to a 404 page for me, did you delete your question? Anyway, it's odd that this...

If you're using Google Backups your contacts are synced with your Google account already. No need to take extra action or turn that into more steps. Based on that it seems what you really want to know is, do your blocked numbers transfer with you and/or is there a way to bring them with you...
