    Help Remove WatchOn

    I got my new Galaxy Tab S and found that the preinstalled WatchOn app is no longer in service. According to Samsung support it should be removable but I can neither uninstall or disable it, leaving a useless app and useless icon in the app draw. Any help please?

    Xperia Z2 on O2 UK

    Does anyone have a Z2 in the UK bought directly from the O2 store or web? I would like to know if it has extra bloat on it like O2 loading screen and apps. If so I will probably go through CPW. Thanks.

    I've just noticed a weird one... I was texting someone back and forward as well as browsing so the screen was on between texts. The phone is on the table propped up on my wallet so I guess at around 20 degrees. Twice in a row a message alert came through and the vibration seemed to cause...

    Help Sky Go

    Has the Sky Go app been supported for this device (4G in my case)? When I first got the Tab Z it updated to 4.2.2 right out of the box so I wondered if Sky were just on catch up with this update or if it has never been supported?

    Help Nexus 4 screen ghosting

    There doesn't seem to be much on the internet about this and I'm not sure if my Nexus 4 has been like this since day one or not... My Nexus 4 suffers from appalling ghosting.

    Hi, Just recently I can't make a purchase without having to enter my Google password on Google Play. Is this new policy and can I switch it off somehow? I've looked in all the setting both on the web and in the app and cannot find anything. I realize that for many the extra security is...

    Help Location Services switching off

    When I open Google Now (which isn't that often), more often than not, it gives me a message that Location Services are off and it doesn't show weather, trip to work etc. I switch it back on and all seems to work OK again. The thing is, I don't ever switch this service off so something else...

    Sky Go now available in the Play Store

    As the title says... I searched for it expecting the usual "not compatible with your device" but it was there and works pretty well too. Along with TV Catch Up, Netflix and Sky Go I'm starting to like the Nexus 7 TV capability.

    People / Phone app

    *small rant* I still don't understand why these 2 things are separate apps with completely different looks. I'm constantly in the phone app and when I want to edit or view a contact I end up dialing the contact. Why can't there just be one universal People app which also has a dialer...
