    "Location services required" notification. What's causing it?

    Hi, Recently, I've started getting this silly alert coming up on my Nexus 6: If you click on it, you get sent to this page: I intentionally have my GPS turned off, as it gobbles up the battery. So why on earth are these apps moaning about it? (especially something like Contacts ...

    Help QI charger constantly causing my phone to beep / vibrate

    Hi, I have not used my QI charger in a while, as this used to really bug me. I was hoping with the v5 of Android, they would have "fixed" this annoyance. When I put my phone on the QI charger, it beeps (or vibrates when on "silent"). Now, thats fine... but WHY is it doing it all the time...

    Fix IP for AirDroid on PC?

    I *love* AirDroid. As an app developer, its a lifesaver for installing test apps quickly. One annoyance though, is that it seems to change the IP each time you connect. For example just not it was http://192.168.1.72:8888/, whereas before it was .69 instead, and other times .68. This makes it...

    S Health - track sleep?

    Hi, I've currently got a myZeo headband, which is for tracking your sleep pattern. However, it looks like they've gone out of business now, so I can't get spares for it any more. I was reading up about the app S Health, and how it can track your sleep patterns as well. I checked the app, but...
