    Navigation audio muted on phone Bluetooth (setting is correct)

    I've checked and reset the setting in both Google Maps and Waze to play navigation audio when I'm on a call and it is still muted when I'm on the phone, but only when I'm on my car's Bluetooth. When I'm on the handset, the navigation audio plays over the phone call.

    S8 battery charging slowly

    My S8 was draining fast, so Verizon replaced it. The replacement was charging slowly, so they replaced it again. The replacement did the same thing, so they replaced it again. Same result. I've used three different chargers and cables in different outlets. Every time it takes close to two hours...

    Google Voice no longer showing up as a voicemail option

    About 6 months ago, my phone stopped allowing me to use Google Voice as the voicemail service and it only shows My Carrier as an option for voicemail. Is it Google Voice, or the phone? I've rebooted countless times and tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times.

    Google Now Traffic Update

    So one day, a few months ago, Google Now, alerted me that my route to work had a significant delay. It only told me once, despite there being the same level of traffic countless times since. How can I 'teach' Google Now to alert me every time?

    Where is Swype now? Last one killed my phone!

    I had Swype, all was good. Then it started freezing my screen, or misguiding the touch to the point that removing the battery was the only option.
