Yes - I do use Android Wear so I can't really do much about Bluetooth as I need it on all of the time.

Quick update - this now seems to have sorted itself out though I don't know how! But it's fast charging again so I'm not going to complain. The "adb" command mentioned above - is this just for rooted devices? Cheers Pete

It's NRD90U. I don't think I can cope with going through a full factory reset so I'll try to get by for now. What I've noticed, having had it running for a few days now, is that it uses much less juice when left alone (better doze functionality) but seems to really go for it when I actually...

Having installed Android N on my 6p, battery drain has become a real problem. I can't work out what's happening as changes to N mean that GSAM can no longer report on app level battery usage (I'm not rooted) so, for now at least, I'm going to need to make use of its fast charge capability to...

I've just installed the N update and suddenly my battery life has become dreadful; I'm not a massive user of the phone so GSAM had me averaging 1 day 3 hours on MM. I've only been using the phone for 2 hours and have hardly done anything with it yet, but GSAM is predicting 16:52 left and it's...

I must be one of the lucky ones; my fingerprint sensor works perfectly, I've never had the phone freeze on me and I'm very happy with the camera - for a phone I think it is excellent. Maybe if I took a trip to Paris, however, it'd all go wrong! Cheers Pete

Hi Christophe, My problem is specifically related to MS Exchange Contacts. Gmail and Hotmail email sync perfectly with no problems. In fact, I've just noticed that if I leave Exhange contact sync on, I start getting problems with Exhange email and Calendar sync generating the same error...

Hi, I wonder if anyone has run into this error before. My 6P had been syncing perfectly well (using the stock mail app) with my MS Exchange server at work but gave up on 30th December as far as Contacts is concerned. It still syncs my Hotmail and Gmail accounts and, on Exchange, happily syncs...

CMeys - you are an ABSOLUTE STAR! This has been driving me around the twist but I followed your instructions and option 2 fixed it straight away. Thanks so much. Pete

Hi. I'm hoping someone on here can shed some light onto a problem that is driving me insane. I have a Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F) running Android 5.0. I've been using Nova and Teslaunread now for about a year with no problem. Today, however, the badges for by Samsung email app and Facebook will no...
