Sat, 23 Apr 2022 07:56:49 -0700

The media and all the ringers are all not working even though it says it isn't on silent. When I plug in the headphones, then it works and its the only way I can watch videos.

LG Android Phone: Why can't I download any more apps?

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 01:25:22 -0700

I have an LG Optimus Hub android phone. My problem is that every time I try to download apps from play store I get a message saying 'insufficient internal memory'. I have tried to clear as much internal memory as possible by deleting other apps and moving some to my 32Gb Sd card but I still get the same message. I hardly have any apps in my phone!!!

Is there a way that I could download my apps directly into the Sd?

Please help, otherwise the phone works fine, I am trying to avoid the purchase of a new phone.

Thanks in advance. Lovely web site !

LG G2: Small row of screen unresponsive?

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 07:34:41 -0700

I have an LG G2. It works great.

Yesterday I noticed some weird behavior. The screen was finicky and hard to use. (I noticed it while playing Candy Crush—I couldn't switch certain candies in an area... LOL). The screen is not cracked or anything. The picture looks perfect...

I decided to open up an app where I could draw, and it turns out that I can't get any input on a perfect row about an inch or so from the top of the screen. The row is about half an inch thick and runs all the way from one side to another. I can color the whole screen, but it's perfectly blank on that one row.

I did some research and figured it might be some loose connector with the digitizer. Is this possibly an easy fix?

Thanks!!!

Motorola Droid RAZR: My Phone Keeps turning off and then turning itself back on?

Fri, 20 Oct 2023 13:52:23 -0700

When I turn on my Droid RAZR and it does its power up, I wait for my service to come on. Before the service gets turned on, the phone restarts itself every time. It continues to do this over and over and over until it runs out of battery. I've tried hooking it up to chargers and hooking it up to a computer. It continues to do the same thing. I tried to restart the phone manually, but this still hasn't fixed the problem. Do I need to buy a new phone?

I have had this phone for 2 months and both cameras stopped working. I try opening the app and it instantly dies and goes back to the home screen. Also on snapchat the screen shows up black and will not show anything that the lens would be showing.

Samsung Galaxy S III: Galaxy s3 usb port not working?

Sat, 09 Mar 2024 07:17:14 -0700

My Galaxy S3 port is damaged I guess, because it does not charge even if I turn off the phone. It is not detected by my laptop. I tried a different charger and cables, but it still is not working. Will updating the software solve my problem?

Or do I have to change the port? if I have to change the port, can anyone guide me?
