    Google Assistant... Calling on speakerphone

    A few days ago I tried using Google Assistant to make a call on speakerphone. I said something like, 'OK Google, call Timmy on speakerphone.' The nice lady said, 'Calling Timmy on speakerphone,' and indeed Timmy was called and the call was placed on speakerphone. Cool! Now, Google Assistant...

    Fitness GPS Accuracy

    There are a few forums I might choose for this question. Please forgive (or advise) if I've chosen the wrong one. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5. Love it. My daughter has an iPhone 6. She loves it. My daughter and I were running together on a track around a park. I had Samsung's S Health app...

    Help Problem with /data (or /data/data)

    I'm desperate. My wife is upset. Just so you understand the tension around the place. Several days ago we upgraded her from a Moto Droid RAZR (XT912, Android version 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, Verizon).

    What Launcher do you use/like?

    I hoped to find a review of launchers somewhere, but haven't found any that aren't in a phone-specific forum. Anyone mind saying what launcher you prefer (or hate) and why? -boster

    All, On the stock calendar (Moto Droid, 2.2) I can't find easy ways to navigate through the calendar. Two specific examples: - Can't find an easy way to go to a date, say 6 months from now. - When viewing a month, I try to drag my finger from right-to-left to move to the next month in the...

    Hi

    Hi, I'm boster. I'm trying out a Motorola Droid--trying the operating system more than the model of phone. I've used BlackBerries for years and liked them, but lately I've been thinking an Android might hit the mark better. -boster
