    Help Google malware

    Using TomTom satnav app on my Galaxy s7 when it gets interrupted and overlaid with a Google Play ad. Very dangerous as I have to fiddle with the mounted phone to get rid of it - not to mention frustrating when in a busy city in need of directions. I've tried everything known to average man to...

    power button to end call stopped working

    I really like the end call using the power button (as well as answer with the Home button) but suddenly they no longer carry out those functions. Checked settings and the options still on/selected. The hard buttons still do their other standard jobs properly. Any ideas?

    Chrome lost shine

    Sadly, I've given up using Chrome on my Galaxy tab, which I use with bt mouse and keyboard. It's become a nightmare. First, the mouse clicks no longer works on most links. I can't do without that, especially as I use gmail in html mode (can't stand the app) where list of mails is small print...

    Connects but no Internet

    Tab S connects to mifi, to iBoost, to hotspot. But in all cases no internet. Was working fine. Went out for 2 hours, left Tab on but screen off. On return still connected but no internet. Rebooted everything. Tried date/time thing. What happened in those 2 hours? Desperate plea for help. Tim

    What's point of external SD card?

    Android forbids (I ask you!) nearly every app writing to an eternal SD card. So why have one? My internal 16gb storage is almost full (I know should have forked out for more memory). My 32gb storage card is almost empty. But even ES file manager is not allowed to move downloaded files there...

    micro usb to micro hub

    I have an Android tablet and often use it with a TV 'dongle' which plugs into the tablet's micro usb socket. But whilst watching TV, I would also like to be able to charge the tablet. So what I'd like to know is if there is such a cable that splits from one male to two female micro USBs...

    text formatting problem

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet S 10.1 with a Logitech keyboard and case. Whenever I type a message to a forum such as this, none of my paragraphs appear - ie text ends up as one unweidly block. - I have entered a paragraph here - I have checked settings where it alleges the keyboard is not...

    Creating home screen folder

    I posted this I think in the wrong forum... The usual Android method to create a folder is to long press an app icon and drag it over another when a blue circle appears. Simple. Samsung on many of its devices thought better. Press menu button and you get the option. Works on my S4 phone...

    From camera TO phone?

    I'm on holiday. Got a fantastic photo on my top-of-range digital camera. I want to email and facebook it. So is it possible to get it onto the phone? Say with some cable, card reader, usb stick or whatever? There isn't a computer in sight, which would be how (tediously!) I'd do it back home...

    Bluetooth long in the tooth

    In sub forums here you can find loads of frustrated people with differing phones, differing stereo bluetooth headphones but with the same complaint. You can pair and receive/make phone calls fine, but you cannot get the music player to perform. Deadly silence although the music/podcast or...
