    Thread Time-only mode

    Ok. I tried out several different battery modes when I was at work. I made the mistake of trying "time only" mode and I couldn't get it out of this mode. It had plenty of charge but I had to wait till I got home and had it on charger before I could change the mode back. There must be a simpler...

    I've been having problems updating apps in the play store for some time now. It temporarily resolved after the 3rd beta update but now I again have 68 apps with updates and nothing will install. I get error code 963. -I've tried wiping play store cache & data. - Wiping Google services cache...

    I have 40 apps that need updates. The play store just says 'download pending.' I tried clearing cache and data from play store and play services with no luck. Can't locate the Google services framework app suggested for similar problems downloading on previous versions. It's been like this for...

    Never figured out why no apps were found when using the cable transfer and adaptor but I called Google support and they were able to restore my apps wirelessly. I had to factory reset the phone to get back to the first time setup screen. When you get to the part where it asks you to connect to...

    I used the adapter and it said no apps found! Settings appear to have transferred fine. I tried using TB to ensure they were all attached to the market and it still couldn't find a single app. Anybody else run into this problem? It's it because I'm rooted?

    It is an Android app which sets up a direct Wi-Fi link to the chromebook. There are probably others that do the same including file management apps (es file explorer )

    Right. As I stated in my original post, I can see the files on my phone but I cannot write to the phone. My goal was to get my Titanium Backup files from my old phone to my new phone. The new phone (SGS6) does not have SD card slot so the easy solution is off the table. I eventually found a work...

    Thanks for responding. Is there a way to see the duotrap Cadence / speed / power data on the Strava app? If there is I haven't found it. I'm only using the free app for now so maybe it is a premium feature but, if so, it is not listed. :(

    Samsung Pay Granted, it is just speculation but it sounds like there is a possibility that Samsung pay may be related to tripping Knox: "Additionally, having a tripped KNOX will more than likely disable Samsung Pay when it's released later this year. This isn't 100% known yet, but it is the...

    Ok, so it is root access that trips Samsung Pay not the knox flag? I was hoping that if we didn't trip knox then maybe Samsung Pay would still work. Why Odin back to stock? Can't we unroot right in SuperSU?
