    Thread PS4 Remote Play for Android - Controllers?

    Today I just found out PS4 Remote Play can be run on Android devices. Dream come true. Im under the impression this rolled out a bit ago, but I havent been able to play PS4, so I didnt know about the port to Android. Anyway, I ran into a pretty obvious issue that I can't seem to find any answers...

    Thread Android Pie - Notifications only come through Bluetooth device

    Noticed with the Pie update, that if you're using a bluetooth device, the notifications only come through that. No longer comes through phone as well. I need my earbuds to be paired and connected for most the time, but cannot have them in ears at all times. I only noticed after my wife called me...

    Thread Galaxy Not 9 / Android 9 - Wallpaper Scrolling?

    I just picked up the Galaxy Note 9 and was looking up wallpaper dimensions. I ran across part of a review posted back in Aug at Note 9 Launch that said the device would support Wallpaper Scrolling on the home screen. More specifically it referred to these wallpapers that were going to be...

    Post One of my computers wont recognize Galaxy S8+

    First off, thank you for your feedback and your time. Idk if thats the issue in this case. My other two PCs have no problem reading it via USB 3.0 But lets say the USB 3.0 havok IS the issue here. Does the USB 3.0 havok apply to USB-C to USB-C? My ZBook (the one having issues) has two USB-C...

    Thread One of my computers wont recognize Galaxy S8+

    Does any one know a reason why a computer won't recognize a Galaxy S8+ when plugged in USB. To me its clear that drivers are messed up on the ZBook, but I don't know how to fix it. I have two PCs, my wifes laptop and this HP ZBook x2 G4. All three of the other devices recognize the S8+, but the...

    Post Substitute for AndroidAuto - And 2018 Honda Accord EX with Hondalink

    Thanks :) I'll look into those. Presently, I just stuck a phone mount on the dash and keep everything Bluetooth. Its only taking advantage of probably 5% of the Honda-link infotainment consoles potential, and yet it's still 20x better than battling with Android Autos ridiculous limitations. Sad :\

    Post Substitute for AndroidAuto - And 2018 Honda Accord EX with Hondalink

    Google play is nothing more than pandora and spotify. You have to select from their options. Yes, I might being "picky", but I prefer Doubletwist. It lets me sync my iTunes music and playlist. The point is, AA supports Doubletwist, but is too limited, and the "Driver Attention" lock is...

    Post Substitute for AndroidAuto - And 2018 Honda Accord EX with Hondalink

    Before I go into it, please understand that I recognize that feature limitations and the "Driver Attention" lock is all meant for the safety of the driver and for others around the driver. I recognize that ultimately the road and the safety of those on the road are the priority. But i will also...

    Thread Substitute for AndroidAuto - And 2018 Honda Accord EX with Hondalink

    I just purchased a 2018 Honda Accord EX that has Hondalink. The OS seems to be based on Android 6.1.1 So far Im very disappointed with the limitations of the Hondalink OS. The Driver Distraction Limitations are ridiculous. In CA it's illegal for you to hold your phone. It must be hands free. But...

    Im trying to create a widget for Unified Remote that allows me to jump back or forward 5sec in MPC (In Media Player Classic, the shortcut keys are Arrow keys left and right).

    I didn't know really how to title this question... Currently if I get get a text message with a GIF attached, I have to tap on the image to view it as an animated image. However, recently I was helping my mom with her texting and I noticed that GIFS were play/animated without having to tap on...

    Post [Q] Will there be new Official Themes?

    The Cons outweigh the pros for the Galaxy S6 by far so I switched to Galaxy Note4. Visited this Thread to see if there was any news... Then I realized that The Note 4 doesnt have themes option despite it being Lollipop lol. Just thought Id share my irony.
