Depending on your Android version, this may get you going. If not, I suggest registering as a member (it's free) and asking your question directly in the sub-forum for your device.

Yep, your phone must be rooted to get around this restriction as of 4.4.x.

and Gmail is disabled or uninstalled? If so, then :party:

Not quite. You'd normally say (for example), "note to self, wash the car." Google Now would respond by saying "Saving note." If Gmail is the only app you have installed that can handle the "Note" intent, it will send you the note reminder as a Gmail message. However, Evernote and Notif Pro (and...

Yes, Google Now works… but does the "note to self" function work? We have three phones in this household - two on different dot releases of KK and one on JB where it stops working after disabling (or uninstalling) Gmail.

FYI: Disabling Gmail disables the Google Now "Note to self" function, even if you have another app that can handle the intent.

You probably have wi-fi set to go off when the screen is off. Goto: Settings > Wi-Fi, then press overflow (3 vertical dots) icon > Advanced Ensure "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" is set to "Always."

Just to provide another point of view, ad-blockers are not necessarily about screwing developers (although they can certainly be used/abused that way). Case in point

What app or apps are creating the notification? To get this info, pull down the Notification bar, long-press the individual notification, and then tap App info.

You answered your own question. It's not working because the video(s) require Adobe Flash, which isn't compatible with your device. However

It sounds like you are using a non-stock launcher and have created a folder by dragging one icon onto another. Removal varies depending on launcher. What happens if you quick-tap the icon? What launcher are you running (e.g., ADW, Apex, Nova)?

How do you know "WiFi is good"? You can't go by signal strength; it's possible to have a full-bar signal and no connectivity. I assume you're still running Gingerbread, so your wifi signal icon in the Notification bar should be blue, not gray. In KitKat it's burnt orange and white, respectively.

For anyone looking to regain the ability to toggle radio bands (typically, to save battery in weak or no LTE reception areas) that went away with the latest 4.3 update, here's the next best thing. Go into Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names Press the + sign at the...

Despite all the negatives that have been reported with the US 4.3 update, I found a really useful feature. Along with the added bloatware, there is a running service called Mobeam. By itself, it does nothing. It's function is to act as an API to other apps. There are currently two apps available...

I actually like the stock S4 e-mail app, but is there a way to permanently delete messages without having to also delete it from Trash? It seems silly to have to delete the same message(s) in two places.

Did you know that the S4 is capable of placing a flashlight widget or app shortcut on your homescreen without having to access an app to activate it each time? And I'm not referring to the built-in 2x1 "Assitive light" widget either. This is a 1x1 widget or normal app shortcut that once...

Made during today's keynote speech announcing new iPad: Apple slates Samsung in new iPad keynote | News | TechRadar I think the author of this article is right - this can only be a good thing for Samsung. Nice to see that they are pushing Apple's buttons... (again).

Any suggestions for an app that will allow wifi printing to this printer (AKA, Lexmark Pro700)? So far, I have tried the following:

Four days only while supply lasts, starting today at Amazon.com... Samsung Infuse 4g for [SIZE=6]1[FONT=Verdana]

The usual method for accomplishing this does not work on the Infuse (i.e., there is no "bootanimation.zip" file). Here is a way of replacing it with the stock splash screen from the Samsung Galaxy S, of which the Infuse is a close family member... or at least a distant cousin lol! You'll need to...
