Why am I getting an Android Update and it's getting blocked by the settings?

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 02:12 PM PST

Hello I am using a Samsung galaxy note 5 and today on the January 3 2017 I got a message that there's an Android update and all the buttons on my cellphone stopped working except the power one so I tried to lock and unlock my device maybe the popup will disappear but it didn't.Luckily I was able to use my "Ok Google" detection and i did get some information about the Android update(the phone was saying the information because I was not able to read the informations) but the message was still on my screen and I asked Google about the latest version of the Android update but it was different then the one in the message and in the message there where only one button and it was Update.I clicked the button but my phone Blocked the update and the phone said that it was not safe(the phone said that it was blocked cause it was an unknown source)! Please help ! (Ps:I did screen capture the message but I don't know if i can send it)!Thank you!

Why is my s4 dying when switching to mobile data

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 02:09 PM PST

Hi! I have an s4 i9505 which keeps restarting in certain actions. I wake up, take it off the charger, 100% battery, do whatever for a couple of hours (not spending the couple of hours on my phone - moderate use), battery now at ~65%, I switch the wi-fi off and mobile data on (that seems to trigger it every time), the phone restarts a couple of seconds later and turns on with 0% battery, and then shuts off. If i try to turn it on, it does with ~45%, and shuts off. If i put in on the charger while off, it starts charging like it's completely empty and jumps to 45% a couple seconds later. Couple of minutes of charging is enough to make it last for another couple of hours then. Been to Samsung repair shop, they say it could be literally anything. 1 work hour over there is 20 euros just to find out what's the problem. New battery around 50 euros. Not trying either of those if it might not solve my problem. Hope somebody here had, and solved that problem. My ex had the same problem on s3 and she threw it away, bought a new phone... Thanks in advance. Alexander

2 new builds for the Nexus 6P have appeared on the Google factory images page. Both are labeled January 2017 and neither has an explanation if it is carrier specific. Neither one excludes Verizon like in Dec.

BT audio lag with video playback

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 01:36 PM PST

Just moved over to a V20 from a Note 3. So far I'm loving the phone, but I've noticed that when playing video and listening through a BT headset, the audio track lags with respect to the video track to the point of being noticeably out of sync. The amount of lag varies considerably depending on which headset I'm using. With one it appears to be >>100 ms, perhaps as much as a half-second; with another, it's essentially negligible.

Anyone else notice this?

S7 Edge (ATT) 25% call (non completion) issue (as of 1-3-2016).

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 01:31 PM PST

Since about Nov 2016 my S7 Edge has had terrible call completion problems. It seems that the calls "leave" the phone but do not "ring" on the other end. If I wait for for a message from the carrier, eventually the call just disconnects from the carrier. HELP!

Just curious to see if anyone received the update yet? I did not get it yet and I know not everyone gets it all at once. Any changes for those who may have ?

Thanks!

Iwowinfit i6 pro and bluetooth

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 12:59 PM PST

I got the iwownfit i6 pro for Christmas. It's a neat little device and does two of the three features I wanted really well: function as a watch and notify me of messages/calls. The third feature I really wanted was to allow my i6 to by a Trusted Device for my S7 (running 6.0.1, AT&T). For some reason, the i6 does not show up as a device available during bluetooth scanning. Yet, I have the corresponding i6 app (iwownfit) on my S7, and it shows it's connected and it has been syncing properly. I can't figure out why the i6 doesn't show up in my S7! I have cleared data/cached from Bluetooth Share and rebooted. I've also wiped my cache partition. No luck.

Any suggestions?

SD Card corruption! Twice...

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 12:55 PM PST

I've had two MicroSDXC card go bad while in the S2 8.0 One was a Samsung card and the second a PNY. Has anyone else lost TWO of these card within a year or so? Other than this, my S2 has been a stellar performer. When these cards go, they can't be reformatted or read by any devices.

Motorola Droid Turbo - Same Specs as N6

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 12:42 PM PST

I bought my kids refurbished Motorola Droid Turbos off of eBay about six months ago for $115 each. They're darn nice little phones, so out of curiosity, I checked out the comparison between the Droid Turbo and my N6. As it turns out, they're almost identical phones, which I guess shouldn't surprise me seeing as they came out at about the same time and from the same manufacturer, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless.

Processor: Same
System Board: Same
Graphics Processor: Same
RAM: Same
Screen Resolution: Same
Screen Type: Same (AMOLED)
Front Facing Camera Resolution: Same
Qi Charging: Same ('yes')
WiFi Bands: Same

Where the phones differ:

The Motorola Droid Turbo has a 21 megapixel back camera and a 20% larger battery(!).

The N6 has a more capable LTE radio (bands) and a larger screen (if that's your thing).

I'm actually a little jealous, and might need to pick up a Turbo to use as a backup or for when I want a smaller screen.

How can I save/dl an image?

Posted: 03 Jan 2017 12:07 PM PST

Is there any way to save images found through google search without having to go to "view original image?"

Long pressing on the image does nothing, and if I press the three vertical dots it lists "View original image" and when I press that it takes me to the image where I can then long press and choose to download it. It seems a bit cumbersome of a process.
