I've got a Sony Z4 tab with a 128 GB SD card, and Android Marshmallow. Adoptable storage is supposed to be a feature of Marshmallow, yet it doesn't show up as an option now that I've inserted my SD card. Would I have to use ADB?

My phone has been working well for years, but a month ago, I started getting problems. I had to wiggle the charging cable just to get it to charge, and even though it had a battery of 100 %, it would discharge rather rapidly. Since about a week ago, I haven't been able to get it over 1%. Most...

I've been testing the G5 today, still unsure if I'll keep it. I've noticed that the audio, especially the microphone, isn't as good as on my previous phone. I see this B&O module costs 123£, and I am wondering if one could expect a way better microphone / recording capabilities...

Are there any out there, and if not, when could we expect to see some? I am pondering buying an LG G5. Getting adoptable storage is among the most important things to me, as I've got a lot of stuff on the phone.

I've got a Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet, and I wonder if it's possible to get split screen without rooting?

The battery gets flat very quickly, and charging takes a whole night. I have got the HTC M8 with ARHD 41. Where to begin to troubleshoot?

With electric cars, there can be at least a foot between the charger and the car. When it comes to cell phones, are there some non-stock chargers that has a range of 1-5 feet? That way you won't have to put the phone down for charging, but can keep using it, or just having it in the pocket...

In your opinion, will Android M become available for HTC One M8 users – either stock or ARHD – some time this year?

One can choose from 41.0 and 43.0, are they just as good and stable? I see that 41.0 has about 10 times as many hits on Google, so I guess it's the most popular. And there are a firmware collection and stock HTC system dump, is that good for anything other than reinstalling stock ROM...

I have taken a quick look at articles about rooting, and the most beneficial app I've seen so far is for moving apps to the SD-card. But would rooting simply to install Link2SD cause a lot of issues, like sporadic crashes, and not being able to autoupdate the os any more?

If I root my M8, but don't install custom ROM, could I then upgrade the operative system the old, normal way (just a click in the settings) or would one need to go to another site and download the os there?

I bought a M9 recently, mostly for the 3GB RAM, and it is supposed to replace my M8. But it turns out the M9 is actually slower and more laggy when it comes to browsing in Chorme, and browsing in Chrome is what the phone is most often used for. Here are videos. The M8 first. Here is the M9...

I use a QWERTY keyboard with the Galaxy Note 10.1. When I surfing on a desktop computer, shortcuts in Chrome are used all the time. New tab, ctrl+t, new incognito tab, ctrl+shift+n. But on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, it doesn't work. The only useful shortcut that's working is ctrl+tab and...

My HTC Desire Z has begin shutting down, especially when I flip in the keyboard. Any ideas as to what can be causing it? (I'm guessing hardware, but I've had some apps do strange things in the past). Any ideas as to how to fix it?

Anyone who's got some thoughts on what's the best memory card for the HTC Desire Z? I don't care about costs, so does the Lexar 128 GB or 256 GB Micro SDXC cards work? Any other memory cards which have a similar capacity, and are compatible with the phone? I have this now, but I am getting...
