    Thread RAM management too aggressive. Any way to change this?

    Mutitasking is virtually impossible. I usually have an app with videos, a PDF reader and the browser open and when I try to go back to either one the tablet had to reload them. Is there a setting/something that can be changed to improve this?

    Thread Typing on keyboard ends up refreshing or closing windows/apps... Help!

    I'm using what I think is a clone of the official cover (Amork). There isn't one with my language layout as far as I know (Portuguese) and this one was sold with the Mediapad on major retailers. The problem I have is that I can't type anything with it. Had to move to my PC to write this post...

    Thread Upgrading from Mediapad m5 pro to S6... worth it? Or even a Surface Pro?

    I bought the Mediapad without much research to replace both my laptop and Galaxy Tab s3 and I'm not very happy about small things: 1. Keyboard operation is bad, it just places in the screen while I'm typing. I believe it is the track pad but also bad integration and problems with operation in...

    Thread How do you set Android Auto?? Please help

    I can't connect my phone to my Peugeot 308 II Sw but I'm sure I'm missing something. I've tried several cables, including the original one from the charger. As soon as I touch the Android Auto icon on my car, the phone asks about what to do with the USB connection and insists on charge only...

    Thread No updates on a G930F... am I missing something?

    I'm lost and I've found a lot of apparently contradictory information on the internet but how do the updates for this phone work? Last OTA I got was on December and no Nougat nor security patches since then. Checking for updates manually don't come up with any. My security patch is from 16th of...

    Thread Blue tint on the screen when at an angle?

    I got my S7 today and I haven't had an AMOLED screen for a looong time. Viewing angles are fine but everything gets a blue tint if I'm not looking straight? Or better, gets more blueish, it's not just a zone, it's the whole screen. Changing display modes doesn't do a thing. Is it normal? I've...

    Thread How is bettery life really like on this phone?

    I'm almost decided on this phone but battery life is probably the most important thing for me and I'm finding completely different test results. Some say it shows the small battery size, others say it's unbelievably good probably due to a less power CPU and smaller lower resolution screen. A...

    Thread Worth getting a Z5 these days?

    I'm really struggling choosing a new phone. Have a dying G2 which was an excellent phone especially when it came to battery life. I've been searching for a more up to date alternative and this phone comes up when it comes to battery life. I was going through the forum though and I've been...

    Thread Are these battery numbers normal nowadays? Need opinion/comparison with other users

    Help me out here, I think my G2 which used to be a battery champ is now absolutely awful. I don't really know if it's the phone going wrong or my different usage and the way apps might have evolved. I think the phone is also heating up way more than it used to do. In fact, I never used to...

    Thread Considering upgrading from a G2 to a G4? What's the battery life really like?

    Hope I'm posting this on the right place, missed it and was told by an ad where to place last questions when I asked about another phone.... but of course I can't remember what he told me back then :silly: Anyway, how is the battery life on a G4? From tech blogs to youtube reviews, opinions are...

    Thread Considering this phone, couple of questions and feedback from owners please...

    I've been away from all this phone thing for a couple of years. In fact, I was never very much into it, I just used to buy whatever flagship there was at the moment as that would usually be cheaper - a phone that would last for a long time and be able to keep getting support. Seems like...

    Thread G2 still relevant and, if not, what are the alternatives?

    Not sure if this fits the forum but I don't know where else to post this question. I like my G2 for the big screen on a compact size but it is getting old. Battery isn't what it use to be although it still has great battery life. I'm getting a bit of lag and sometimes stuff won't work for some...

    Thread [Q] How do you get the alarm to ring when in silent mode - Lollipop ??

    I've updated my G2 yesterday and missed my alarm this mourning!! Putting the phone into silent mode during the night apparently will also silence the alarms, which is just rubbish!! I've noticed there's something about muting everything except priority stuff but I don't see the alarm in it...

I'm stuck in multiple levels, including not knowing what to search for on the forum, so excuse me if this has been discussed before or if it's on the wrong section.

    Thread [Q] portable battery not working?Hi

    Hi, I'm in a bit of a trouble here. My battery is running low but I have a fully charged external battery that connects via USB. T he problem is that as soon as I connect it, the phone says 'charging' but disconnects right away, even the portable battery. Why is this, am I missing any setting?

    So during my holiday my HOX got splashed with a bit of water from a wave. The battery was running on fumes and, when I looked at it, the phone was dead. It did turned on later while in my pocket and I happened to press the power button. I let it dry on rice and nothing. I made the potential...

    Thread [Q] Thinking about getting a G2... thoughts?

    Hi, I hope it is ok to post this question here.... So I drowned my HTC One X today and, looking at prices, I came across the G2 which isn't all that much more expensive than the discontinued HTC. I guess that's because there's the new G3 but that one is way too big for me. What are you...

    Thread GPS/Navigation problem... app, mobile or something else?

    Hi, I'm really not sure what to make of this problem so maybe you can help me out pinpointing the problem so I can take care of it.

    Thread A good and small 3.5mm jack external speaker?

    Hi, I've searched but haven't found anything of what I have in mind... I was looking for a small, plug-in external speaker that could a bit more of out-put than the built-in speaker on the back. I find it very quite and doesn't perform as nearly as loud as the inbuilt speaker on my old Samsung...
