The phone still goes on when the flip .cover is opened so its not the phone what could be the problem.

Google Maps not locating me. Messing up Moto Assist... Need Help.

Posted: 26 Oct 2016 01:29 PM PDT

So this is an odd one...

Just yesterday, my Moto Assist no longer detected that I was at Home, and no longer read my texts/calls to me. Moto Assist relies on Google Maps to detect where I am, and when features should be activated. When I checked Maps, it showed that I was half a mile away from home, and I couldn't seem to re-calibrate it to get it to recognize where I really was.

When driving around, if I have turn-by-turn directions on, the map can follow my path after detecting my location. But if you back out of turn-by turn, and just leave it on the regular map, Google Maps can no longer track me, and doesn't pick me back up until I go back into turn-by-turn. If I use Waze, the car is tracked perfectly fine, and can detect my home location.

I don't know what is going on here and how to fix it. I need the Moto Assist feature to work again, and that relies on Google Maps working correctly. Why has it suddenly stopped detecting my location accurately?

I've tried resetting the GPS with an app, cleared cache and data from Maps, turned phone on/off, GPS on/off... Not sure what else I can do, because it seems to to be an app-specific problem.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! (Sorry, if this was long. Just trying to be thorough).

Can I make the touch screen ignore a thumb?

Posted: 26 Oct 2016 01:19 PM PDT

I like big phones; went from Note 2 to Note 4, now using S7 Edge and considering another Note. I've pretty much given up on one-hand controlling these, wich is fine. However, holding these phones can be annoying, and I feel like what I really want to do is hold it like I do anything else; with fingers on both sides, safely in place (sounds odd now that I read it). What I mean is, thumb on screen, 4 fingers on the back, safely lodged in my hand while I use the other hand to browse or whatever. Problem is that an extra finger on the screen prevents me using it, of course. If you've seen any of the Iron Man or Avengers movies, Tony Stark holds his fancy transparent phone the way I'm trying to describe, like a big cookie :)
QUESTION: Is there a way to make the phone ignore this extra finger so I can hold it comfortably the way I want, and still use the touch screen with other fingers? Now I feel I'm balancing the overpriced thing on a tiny moving pidestal wich it could fall off any moment should I press to hard on the screen or turn too quickly or something. If I wrap my fingers too tight on the edges, the bloody screen reacts..

is Moto Display always on ?

Posted: 26 Oct 2016 01:16 PM PDT

So I left the S7 Edge for the LG V20, after heavily considering the Moto Z Force Droid.

Well, less than 24 hours in, I'm ready to return the V20. Dont like the FPS on the back, don't like the physical feel of the phone, battery is lame, and I find myself missing the Samsung Always On Display.

I previously had a Droid Maxx and Droid Turbo, but I forget. I know it pops up when you have a notification. But does the Moto Z Force show the time at all times?

HELP! Wierd problem, apps opening realy slowly and sometimes not responding.

Posted: 26 Oct 2016 01:13 PM PDT

So I got this wierd problem, like an year, but I didn't find any clue what this means.

Basicly my LG G4 Stylus have an problem for like an year, that mine phone opening apps showing only logo ( like youtube, http://i.imgur.com/s4oIgvG.png ) and gray screen for some games ( like Temple run 2 and alot of other games, some do run but lag, http://i.imgur.com/UTABAJS.png )

This problem started like after 2 months, after the purchase.
The phone is slow and sometimes restarts it self while locked, and trying to unlock it, it takes a while. When I manage to unlock it, its just starting up.

Sometimes the phone goes back to normal like 1 time in 3 months, but after restart it goes back how it is.

This is everything I know about this issue with my phone, I hope someone knows how to fix it!

Thanks,

EDIT:

I had installed root, and uninstalled, but It still shows that It shows in the Root Checker that the ''root is not installed properly on this device'', I tried installing an another root, the Root Checker it said I have an root, but when I uninstalled it showed ''root is not installed properly on this device''.

And theres always an OS update in my notification area, but when I download It and its ''installed'' at the end it says rooted device.

Thanks.

Why does Google Now keep saying I am offline when I'm not? I can't use talk for anything.

Posted: 26 Oct 2016 01:04 PM PDT

When I talk to Google and tell it anything, it comes back a screen saying I am offline, even when I have four bars and 4G network connection along with WiFi connection.
