    Help for someone coming from Touchwiz

    So I just got the Moto X a couple days ago and I love it so far. However, given that it's basically stock android, there's a few things missing that I'd grown used to from Touchwiz on my Galaxy S3 and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good replacement for these features. The battery...

    Help app could not be downloaded due to an error [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]

    I have been trying to update a specific app recently and I'm getting this error.: I've tried googling it and other people seem to have this error. The recommended solution I've found is to remove my google account in settings and then re-add it, or clear the Play Store cache. Neither work for...

    Help Can't ping computer from phone or vice versa

    So I'm trying to set up Unified Remote Server and I can't get my phone to detect my computer. The support section says to try pinging the computer from the phone, but it returns unreachable. I tried pinging my phone from my computer to see if that worked, but it's the same response. I have...

    Help backup phone without root or SD card

    I cracked the screen and need to send my phone in for a repair and I need to back everything up before I send it in. It's not rooted so Titanium won't work, and I really don't feel like going to the trouble of figuring out how to root it and then immediately unroot it. I also don't have an SD...

    Help Stock clock app broken after AT&T OTA update

    So I am an AT&T subscriber and a couple days ago I got an OTA update. I haven't noticed any changes so far, except that the stock Clock app is now broken. It starts to load, freezes for awhile, then says "Unfortunately, Clock has stopped." Every time. I use Clock heavily for alarm clocks and...

    Magazine selection

    I'm thinking about dumping my 1st Gen iPad and getting the Nexus 7. I mostly use my iPad for reading so the smaller form factor appeals to me, and I like that magazines seem to have a consistent experience on the Nexus 7, whereas on the iPad every publisher has their own way of navigating...

    using Direct Call

    How exactly does Direct Call work? It only seems to work half the time I try to use it, and the half when it doesn't work is invariably when I'm trying to demonstrate the feature to someone or just look cool while nonchalantly calling someone. I usually use it when I have a text from someone...

    Help Screen proximity sensor glitch

    I got my S3 on Saturday and since then I've had cause to call a few different customer service numbers, the type where you have to press "1" for this, and "2" for that, and enter your account number followed by the pound sign, etc etc. I've noticed a weird glitch where I will take the phone away...

    Help ATT - Turn off 4G/LTE

    Is there a way to turn off the 4G/LTE on the AT&T version? I can't find the option anywhere, and while I do have 4G in my area, it isn't the "real" LTE 4G, so I want to turn it off to conserve battery. I read somewhere though that AT&T doesn't allow you to turn of 4G and only use 3G, is that true?

    "unsupported" with car audio

    I have a 2010 Honda Fit Sport that features a USB plug so you can use your iPod or other flash drive over the audio AUX. It used to work fine with my iPhone and then my Evo 4G, but I just upgraded to the Galaxy S2 and when I plug it in the audio display just says "UNSUPPORTED". Anyone know how...

    Battery life vs Evo 4G

    I'm finally up for an upgrade and am thinking of ditching my Evo 4G and getting the S2. My main concern is battery life. I get about a day on my Evo with normal usage, but if I'm in a weak signal area or just using the phone a little more than usual, it's dead by the afternoon. Things like...

    Root need some help after OTA

    So, a few months ago I rooted my phone to much success. Today I got the message asking if I wanted to get an OTA update, and because I am an idiot, I said yes and let it do its thing. A few minutes later it reboots, loads for a little while, and then displays a screen with the Android robot and...
