    Can anyone please advise exactly whereabouts on the body is the Qi charging coil? And for that matter, would anyone happen to know the answer to the same question with the Nokia DT-900 charger? Many thanks.

    Thread [Q] Switch off LED?

    I'm considering purchasing a Nexus 6. Can anyone please tell me; is it possible to completely switch off the charging LED? Or does that - as it does with so many other phones - require rooting and fiddling? Many thanks.

    Thread [Q] How to kill the charging LED?

    The question's been asked a few times before (including by me), but so far with no solution. I'm trying again, then: Does anyone know an app or hack or tweak that will completely kill the charging LED (or kill the LED altogether - if only I could open the phone and disconnect it!)? Yes, I'm...

    Can anyone please suggest an app or tweak to switch off the charging LED? I'm rooted and have tried several apps that claim to do it, but so far haven't found one that actually does. Many thanks.

    Thread [Q] Using tablet as a regular phone

    Could someone please confirm whether the tablet can or cannot be used as a hold-it-to-the-ear phone? Online reviews and specs seem to differ on this. Does it actually have a microphone and an ear-volume speaker in the correct places to be used as a phone held against the ear, or does it only...

    Thread [Q] Switching of LED

    I want to switch off my charging LED, indeed I'd like to switch off the LED completely. My phone is rooted and I've been trying out apps, but so far I haven't found a single one that can do the job. Can anyone please recommend an app or a method of simply killing the charging LED? Thanks.

    Thread [Q] Can I root but stay official?

    I have a Sony Xperia Z Ultra, running 4.4.4. Is it possible to do a simple root (in order to make adjustments to the LED and sound), but not affect the stock ROM or over-the-air updates? I don't want to miss out on the official Sony Lollipop, so should I maybe wait to root until after that...

    Thread [Q] Basic rooting tutorial

    Can anyone please point me towards a tutorial to gain simple root access on my Ultra, but stay on stock ROM and continue to receive official over the air updates? I want to improve the sound and make adjustments to the LED, so I must root in order to achieve that, but otherwise I would...

    Thread [Q] Switch off charging LED

    I'm very keen to get rid of the charging LED. (I don't want any LED at any time, but everything except charging can of course be switched off under Settings). I've tried several apps, but all either require root or simply don't work. My phone is not rooted and I don't want to root. Does anyone...

    Thread [Q] "Always on" screen damage?

    Is there any risk of doing any damage to the screen if using the "Always on" watch face? Is this not likely to burn into the screen, or am I thinking old technology here? Thanks.

    Thread [Q] Will Android 5 run in landscape?

    I'm all set to buy myself a Nexus 6, but can anyone please let me know whether Android 5 will run in landscape? I'm a fan of large phones and always lock my phone permanently in landscape, only ever using portrait for making phone calls or for the few apps that simply refuse to run in landscape...

    Thread [Q] Automatic heart rate monitoring?

    Does anyone know of any app that will automatically run the heart rate monitor at predefined intervals? It's rather disappointing having a heart rate monitor when you have to continually tell it to take a measurement. I'd love to have an app that automatically monitors my heart rate (and also my...

    Thread [Q] German phone in England?

    I'm in England. If I were to purchase an Android device in Germany, change the UI language to English, and bring it back to the UK. Would I be able to use it here (on UK 3 network) without problems, or might there be issues with updates later on? Any thoughts/tips would be much appreciated, thanks.

    Thread [Q] Will a German-purchased phone be OK in the UK?

    If I purchased an android phone in Germany (specifically a Huawei MediaPad M1), set the UI language to English, and brought it back to the UK, would I later have problems with updates, or would it simply update happily in the UK as a German model with English UI? I ask because the UK edition...

    Thread [Q] Making phone calls with MediaPad M1

    I hope to purchase a Huawei MediaPad M1. I read everywhere, and all the reviews state, that the tablet can be used as a phone, however, playing with one in store I find there is no phone software on the device. It is critical that I can use the tablet as a regular hold-it-to-your-ear phone. Will...
