(need some help) all of a sudden battery life has dropped. Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:32 PM PDT I have a AT&T 3G Gear S2 and all of a sudden (the last week or so) my battery life as dropped a lot. I could go a day and a half almost two before it needs to be charged. Now after only 7 hours, I am getting a low battery warning and I have to switch to battery saving mode... As anybody else had a problem like this recently? I turned off heart rate tracking and all of the exercise notifications. Is there a way to check if any background apps are running so I can turn them off? |
a problem seeing the sd card from my laptop Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:31 PM PDT I have a Samsung Galaxy tablet 2-10.1, GT-P5113. The tablet sees the sd card and the files on the sd card when I use ether File Explorer or Total Commander app's on the tablet. But when I connect the tablet to the laptop via the USB cable. The laptop only sees the tablet an not the sd card in the tablet. Why? Steve |
Has anyone had problems with T-Mobile cell service when migrating from AT&T? Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:25 PM PDT I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 phone and got virtually no cell service with AT&T. I switched to T-Mobile and got great cell signal in their store, but again no service when I got home. I was told by T-Mobile that the reason is because I am using an AT&T phone even though T-Mobile sells the exact same phone. Is there a solution to this? I don't want to buy another phone only to have the same problem. |
Multi Media message problems on Network (Nexus 6p) Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:19 PM PDT Hello, I just got a new Nexus 6p from amazon and have been very satisfied with it so far. I am using Bluegrass Cellular as my provider. I can send texts and view the internet but cannot send pictures or contacts to other people. Bluegrass said that it must be an issue with apn and call google. I called google and they redirected me to my service provider. Any advise would be greatly appreciated as I really like this phone but if i cant send or receive pics then I will have to send back the phone. Thanks! |
Rooting a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:19 PM PDT Anyone Root a Samsung S5 Active ? ... if so what did you use ? and how did it go ? I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active (unlocked) which was originally distributed by AT&T... after swapping the SIM card from my old phone I am now using it on another network and everything works fine... However, I would very much like to get rid of all of the Bloatware and AT&T apps (all of which in std mode is not possible)... hence my interest in Rooting the phone (an activity I have not previously done)... the first (2) "One Click Root" and "King Root" indicated that they did not support Rooting my phone/OS/Build (not sure which part)... i.e. my S5 Active is: Samsung SM-G870A Android ver. 5.0 Build #: LRX21T.G870AUCU2B0F2 |
Outlook calendar no longer syncing on Calendar app Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:18 PM PDT I noticed a few days ago that my outlook calendar was no longer syncing on my Calendar app, which it has done correctly ever since I've had the phone. The email from the Outlook account is syncing properly. I have tried various things - unchecking the account for syncing, then rebooting and checking it again, turning the phone off overnight, checking settings in Outlook, etc. Very frustrating. I use the Calendar app for both my Gmail calendar and Outlook calendar and like having everything on calendar so would rather not have 2 separate apps. Any suggestions?!? |
Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:16 PM PDT Hi, my Droid Turbo periodically starts playing music by itself. It usually occurs in the morning and the 'listen now' function is showing on the screen. My wife and children are all apple phoners, so the android brand gets a hammering - you know the junk technology badging. Running lollipop. Any ideas on why? I've been all-over Google play but can't see anything in there which might cause this. Posted via the Android Central App |

Finally got Onix, and he just stinks... Posted: 26 Jul 2016 01:11 PM PDT Granted I don't have him maxed out, but with me being lvl 22 (almost 23), and his CP bar being past the 50% mark with a whopping 29 hit points, his stats really suck (seriously, even with the XS tag on his side, those hit points are sucky sucky sucky). Why is a less than common (if not rare) Pokemon so damn lucky? And the attack damage is abysmal. Has to fill the entire bar for 55. A 20 special attack would be magnitudes better if the bar were chopped into smaller increments (like most do). uploadfromtaptalk1469563864119.png |

'Unfortunately samsung Accessory Service has stopped. Posted: 26 Jul 2016 12:52 PM PDT The above message appears when I try to answer my phone, or open gallery or do just about anything. I have to press ok several times to get rid of it, this has stopped me answering my phone. Why does this come up and how can I stop it? |

Process System not responding. Help? Posted: 26 Jul 2016 12:49 PM PDT Ok Im having a HUGE problem. My phone worked fine at first, then I rooted it and used titanium backup to restore all my apps from my old phone (an lg volt) to my current phone an S5... everything was fine. My phone recognized my SD card, when I plugged the phone into my PC it would show my correct phone internal storage as well as my sd card storage. Then I ran link2sd to relink all my data to my sd card... even though i didnt need to because unlike my old phone which was 8gb the s5 was 16gb and had more than enough space to run my apps without the link2sd. If I had left that alone we wouldnt be where we are now. However I didnt so here we are. Link2sd had message saying something like "this device doesnt support /sdext and has to be changed to sdefs (i know im getting the message way wrong but it was something like that) these settings can be changed via slider". So I clicked yes to let it do what it had to do. after all if I didnt like the results I could always change back via the slider right? link2sd required a reboot after the changes were made and now when it boots after the samsung and sprint logos and before the lock screen Im staring at a black screen that shows the time and "no connection" for about 30 secs before the lock screen shows up (this didnt happen before link2sd made whatever changes it made) and the "process system not responding" message shows up. Though the only adverse affects Ive sen from that so far is when I open Gallery it stops and closes automatically so I cant even use it. However I couldnt find said slider and now when I hooked my phone to PC it shows no external storage and reads my internal as 127MB free of 128mb (yes that right... 128 mb.. on a phone thats supposed to be 16gb). When i go to storage on the phone itself It said sdcard unmounted (as if theres not one there) and my internal storage shows 9gb used of 14gb so the PHONE knows how much gb I should have but my pc doesnt. Also if i take the sdcard out of the phone and plug it into my pc directly everything shows up on it just as it should so i know the sd card isnt broken. I posted this on XDA but theyre taking too long to respond so I troubleshooted on the net. So I found solutions like reboot phone in recovery and have it wipe cache. I did that.... didnt work. Then I tried unrooting the phone and factory data reset (from the phone settings not from the recovery boot). Despite doing a factory rest which SHOULD fix ANYTHING wrong with the phone, delete all apps and make it run just as it did when you got it. That black screen between logos on lock screen still pops up and I get the "process system not responding" message still appears. Now my PC doesnt see my phone at all when Its plugged in. So I tried booting in safe mode to see if that message still comes up and the answer is yes but now my pc sees my phone (no sd card in it but I doubt it will see it if it was) however it still displays the storage as 127mb of 128mb So link2sd started this whole problem and factory reset wont even solve it. Ive provided plenty of details. Can this be fixed or if my phone pretty much done now (i can still use it for texts and calls but, its useless hooked to a pc, doesnt recognize external storage anymore and I cant use the gallery sooooo yea. I hope someone has a solution. |
