Hi, folks. Running a Galaxy S5 on MetroPCS. Two days ago it started throwing this ER101 Invalid Certificate message in Wi-Fi Calling mode. I've tried more than a few things to correct it. Turned Wi-Fi Calling off and on; no change. Turned Wi-Fi off and on; no change. Even though a lot of posts...

Of late my GL on metroPCS has gone loopy. The first problem was with SMS: I'd send a message and it'd take hours to go through (in fact, one message I sent my wife late last night didn't get sent until after 9am today; and I didn't put a scheduled send on it). Not surprisingly, msgs were taking...

I have my GL hooked up to my computer. I can read the contents of the SD card; but apparently, I'm prevented from doing anything with them. This started with ringtones that worked just fine on my Droid Razr Maxx not working at all on the GL; but not all of them. After getting silence from the...

My wife's Concord II has a curious problem in that, with the SD card installed in the phone, not everything that supposedly can use an SD card has found the SD card. For the vast majority of her apps there is no button allowing her to move the app to the SD card (not even a grayed-out button for...

My wife just got a ZTE C2. Being a big user of FB (and other video sources), she's played a lot of videos since getting the phone last Thursday (and we got an unlimited data plan with the phone). A few minutes ago, she sent me a note to ask why suddenly she couldn't play videos. Not being in the...

Haven't seen this discussed for the GL, so I thought I'd ask. Does anyone know how to get Contacts to sort on last name? My old Droid Razr Maxx gave me that option; and I'd rather use it on the GL. But all I see is an option to display last name first, not to sort last name first. In fact, I'd...

If I could figure out why it appears I have GBs of space available but no room to download a 4MB app, I'd try it. That's a slight digression, of course; but if I could figure out the storage space, I'd actually give this a try. Thanks for the idea.

So here's what happened when I tried Opera Link. I got a warning message that Link wasn't compatible with versions of Opera past 14. Well, my PC version is 20 and my phone version is 24. God knows when they'll catch up to themselves. There was a convoluted method I saw somewhere involving...

Actually, I hadn't. When I first searched for a process on line, I saw too many posts indicating Opera Link was a thing of the past.

Had to get a new phone and a new provider for a number of reasons. Does anyone know how to move Opera's Speed Dial entries between devices? Thanks, all.

Haven't seen this particular problem posted; so here goes: Just got a GL from MetroPCS to replace my Droid Razr Maxx from Verizon. My experience with changing phones before tells me that all my current apps will come over to the phone by themselves; but so far, that hasn't happened. Anyone know...

My wife's Droid Charge has developed a rather inventive form of bricking: It's stuck in an endless loop on the startup animation. This happened after the phone crashed inexplicably this afternoon (not the first time that's happened). She's tried everything she could think of, including swapping...

My wife's Droid Charge always vibrates, even with every switch we could find set to off. Even disabled vibrate on emergency texts. The problem seems most noticeable on texts from Twitter; but we can't find any switch to turn that off. What might we be overlooking? Thanks, and happy new year.

It used to be that you could disable the popup notification on the native (i.e., Motorola) text messaging app. I had to go back to this app after Handcent screwed up by adding its "update agent" that demands the removal of things I use without offering a justification; but that's beside the...

Something strange happened to my Razr Maxx this evening: Whenever I plugged my USB cable into it, it detected the presence of an HDMI cable and rotated the phone display. Of course, no HDMI cable was actually in the house, much less in the phone. After swapping USB cables with no change, I...

Got the JB update yesterday (EDT). So far, the phone works great. the update even helped me solve a nagging problem...OK, by causing a few of its own; but, still. So here's the deal: When my phone is connected to my computer, suddenly the phone uses bizarre tones for rings and notifications. It...

I'm having a very strange problem with notifications on my Razr Maxx. In the last week or two, notifications have just stopped sounding. I've read posts in a number of fora that discuss total speaker failure; but that's not my problem. Media still sounds through the speaker. Ringtones still...

Is there something wrong with Moto Droid Razrs and streaming video? Bad enough that I have a wi-fi problem at my local library (see "Loopy wi-fi?"); but one of my local TV stations streams its newscasts and they're supposed to be readable on Android devices. My wife's Samsung Droid Charge...

Ordinarily, the Wi-Fi on my RAZR MAXX works fine wherever I go, even the free ones: Mickey D's, Bob Evans, almost any Wi-Fi. The only place I can't connect using the phone is my local library. Once I tell my phone to connect to the library, it just keeps looping through "Saved" and "Connecting"...

One of my Razr Maxx folders has suddenly started rearranging itself behind my back after I added a couple of apps to it. I rearrange the icons; next time I open the folder, they're in some random order. I rearrange the icons; next open they're in a different random order. Other folders, some of...

My wife's Droid Charge has a strange problem. Despite having numerous ringtones selected for specific contacts, her phone plays the default ringtone regardless of who calls. The phone is stock and so is the ringtone selector. The really weird part of this is that perhaps once, the ringtones she...

Hi, all. Getting the dreaded "USB Device Not Recognized" when I plug in my DInc2. This only started happening today; it's been working fine up until now. Not the USB on the computer: Not only does the mouse still work (regardless of which port it occupies); but also I went through the whole...

I've been contemplating getting a BT speaker for the car that is actually A2DP (apparently, my Motorola T215 is not). However, I was noticing in the meantime that while music and media come out of a speaker plugged into the headphone jack on top, notifications and ringtones do not. I find this...

I've seen a lot of heat on speakers on these fora, but not a lot of light. I don't seem to be the only one who thinks the speaker on the DInc2 is not as good as the speaker on the DInc1; but does anyone have a clue why? I could lay my DInc1 down on the seat in the car and still hear whatever the...

It appears I deleted an icon from my home screen inadvertently (there were a lot of strange things happening as the battery was going comatose; these things really should have shipped with stronger batteries, but I digress). Is there any way to locate and restore an icon inadvertently deleted...
