Which is better: cloud or google contacts?

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 01:23 PM PDT

I'm trying to eliminate duplicate information entered under my contacts. But I also want to make sure I can retrieve all of my contact information if I get a new phone, regardless of the wireless service providers. So should I save as a Google contact or a Cloud contact? What is the difference between the two? Pros and Cons?

LG Lucid 3 / Verizon / Running out of storage and an extra anomaly

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 01:13 PM PDT

Hi all,

Looking for advice on that. This is actually my wife's phone - I have a much older one (LG Optima) that I also ran into some data storage issues with that I managed to solve.

A bit frustrating that I'm having issues figuring this one out.

We started getting the "Low on Memory" message about a week and a half ago, available memory was showing as somewhere around 30-50 MB) and my wife started removing a few things, but wasn't able to get enough out to clear out the error.

I started playing with it once she ran out of ideas and cleared out a ton. It was storing photos locally, so we cleared those out, we cleared out a bunch of non-essential apps and moved a few others to the SD Card.

This brought the available memory up to about 500 MB, so I figured we were good. The next day the available memory went back down to around 50 MB and the error started up again.

I did a bit more digging and cleared out the "Recent Calls" and Text Messaging history (both of which went back about a year and a half to when the phone was new). Pulled some more app data out and got the available memory up to around 600 MB.

Except now it seems to go back and forth from around 400 MB or so down to about 35 MB or so. When it's on the high-end of that the warning doesn't show up, but on the low end it does.

I'm kind of at a loss with this - one of the things I did while clearing out app data was cleared caches from some apps, I expect that to come back, but not to the level that we're seeing and certainly not so fast.

It also seems odd that it's going back and forth so much on the available memory.

Any ideas? LMK if any specific info is helpful.

Yo yo yo

Like some others that have posted, I've lurked the forums a decent amount and finally decided to join recently (I was just on vacation so that's why I waited ~1 1/2 weeks to post). I've been hooked on Android since my galaxy s4 I got about 4 years ago. I currently have a galaxy s6 (that's almost a full year old) that I don't plan on replacing any time soon. Also, I just tried out Nova Launcher: it's my first non-stock launcher I've used (about time, right?) and I love it so far! Looking to learn more about how I can reap the full benefits of my android phone + watch (proud owner of an LG Urbane), and rub it in my friend's faces who have iPhones ;).

Google play stops randomly

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 01:07 PM PDT

To my regret, I have recently upgraded my Samsung Galaxy S5neo to marshmallow 6.0.1. Google play music used to work flawlessly but is now constantly stopping after around two songs. I've tried pretty much everything including reducing RAM usage, notifications, S voice listening and a complete factory reset. With zero results! Does anyone one know what is the cause of this problem? As it's driving me insane and I do not wish to end my unlimited play subscription.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Exchange Account Cannot Send Mail When Using Wifi Connection.

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 12:49 PM PDT

Using the standard Galaxy Exchange sync client I cannot send email through my company's Exchange server when I am connected to a WiFi hotspot. If I shut off WiFi and connect to Verizon 4G and resend the email it goes through.

I installed the MS Outlook client and that does not duplicate the problem (mail sends correctly no matter how I am connected).

Others in my company with the same phone have experienced the exact same issue. Galaxy Note 4 does not duplicate the problem. Galaxy S5 does duplicate the problem.

The boss has this problem and wants it fixed before he goes on vacation.

Do I need to sideload each OTA image or just latest one?

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 12:46 PM PDT

Nexus 6 running MOB30I (May).

I want to sideload the entire image via OTA. Do I need to take a stepped approach loading MOB30M (June) before loading July's MOB30O? I'm thinking the latest should include everything that was in June's update since it's the entire image.

Thanks!
