Oh, my phone is SO happy to announce wireless charging (Qi) has started. Except sometimes there are people sleeping when I've put the phone on the charging pad and all that celebration really interrupts the sleep and endangers me and the phone alike. Is there any way to either disable the...

I had rooted my phone out of the box, and last week installed the Android 4.4x OTA update. Which unrooted it, without protest or comment. Today I went to root the phone again, only to find the menu function for Settings/General/Developer_Options/USB_Debugging no longer exists. In fact, the...

Elves came in the middle of the night, terribly evil elves, and they rooted my phone. So now I'd like to sweep out some of the stock apps that I don't use, want, or need. Does anyone have a list of the applications "by screen name" versus "by app name" so I can be sure of what I'm deleting when...

The instructions to root the LG Optimus G Pro are posted in other threads and multiple pages on the web. And I thank the folks who have done all the hard work to make that possible. So tonight I finally got around to using those instructions and found that, as usual, a few key things were...

This is an unmodified AT&T Atrix4G, which is supposed to be unlocked, but it was a warranty replacement and I believe it was carrier locked by the first owner, before ATR&T gave it to me. Last year, AT&T's unlock code didn't unlock it, and they and Moto both claimed to be stumped when we found...

I'm trying to unroot an Atrix that was rooted with SuperOneClick 1.6.5, which was all that was out back then, and recommended as the bets. I've tried SOC 1.6.5 and the newest 1.9.1 version, clicked on UNROOT and it isn't unrooting. SOC 1.6.5 fails after saying: SuperOneClick v1.6.5.0 Killing...

I'm trying to plunge into Android and after an afternoon of looking around (online and in books) I'm seeing very little discussion of CALL AUDIO itself. That is, the full two-way audio stream that is handled during a phone call. What I'd like to do is save that stream out to a file. But the few...

I know that if I hold VOL- while powering up, the phone will present options for rebooting in different modes. I don't know what most of them mean. Does anyone have a FAQ online listing these--for the Atrix--or can anyone list them for me? Thank you!

I was surprised to find there are no script or macro recorders in the Android Market. Is this impossible in Android for some reason? Or just against Market policy? What I was looking to do was put a "button" on a home screen, so that one 'click' on the button would open a couple of menus and...

The Moto spec sheets say there is one. Is this like Zork, where you have to look under a grating in a dark closet? I've used headphones but didn't see any "radio" options happen.

I configured the reader with two fingers, and it worked fine. Spent a couple of hours messing around with the new phone, downloaded some market apps, ditched some of them, poked around some more... Fingerprint reader went AWOL. Didn't say the prints were bad, just didn't respond at all...
