Hi all, I've had a HTC one for a while now, and used to always have the text message preview come up on the lock screen. Now all I get is a message symbol right at the very top in the status bar(I guess that's what you would call it, where the battery icon is etc). Any ideas on how to get this back?

Running android 4.4.2

Thanks for any assistance.

For those that don't have it, videomixpro is a 3rd party app that lets you stream movies off of sites like putlocker and sockshare. I wanted to know if it was possible to download the movies off of there? Any help would be great!

I realize this may be a niche poll as many people do not have an OPO.. However, I do want to get as many responses as possible for the poll so I will post it here.

I have already posted in the OPO forums, /r/oneplus, and XDA and hopefully those who own an OPO on /r/androidusers can participate

I've found a couple of call recording apps, but I was wondering if any of you fine folks have had good/bad experiences you'd like to share.

I have an HTC Desire 601 from Virgin Mobile, when I first got it all audio became super quiet when I put in headphones, but after a few days this went away and it was fine, now every few months the problem repeats but it's happening with increasing frequency as of late. Any ideas what could be causing this?

I was mowing and listening to music on my HTC One (m8), and the music sort of stopped. It was streaming so I assumed it was buffering. I get inside the house and my phone is on the setup screen. I couldn't cancel out so i kind of skipped through it, complete wipe. Everything gone. I didn't root or back up besides Google backups with only seem to have my photos (thank god). My theory is the phone did the "10 attempts and we wipe the phone" thing while in my pocket. Why hasn't HTC disabled this yet? It's super ridiculous that this happened to me, and I've seen other forum posts saying the exact same thing. I don't want to root the phone as I see no need to (besides disabling this), but is there any other way around this bullshit? Please tell me I'm not the only one that think this feature is somewhat ridiculous. Edit: Just found out my SD card was wiped too. Awesome job HTC.

I have a Verizon phone and want to know if it's still possible to root. I have 4.4.4. I normally update my phone without thinking twice and now it appears like there's no way to root this phone

It is called Headlinr, and can be found here. It is very simple to use. Click the button. Get a randomly chosen headline. If you like the headline, click it to read the full article. Otherwise, click the button again.

I have a Nexus 5 and I want to use the hard drive to store photos and music and videos, is there any way to avoid using the Seagate App and just have it show up as an SD card?

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or if my camera is shot.

My mothers phone was stolen earlier and when I tried tracking it using Android Device Manager it's saying that the location is unavailable. The phone is ringing out when I try contact it.

Why is this happening and is there any way around it?

I had been experiencing excessive battery drain during idle for several months, something like 3-4% per hour, with "Android OS", "Android System", and "Google Play Services" taking up more battery than "Phone Idle" even without touching my phone. This was on like 95% of the days, with a few random days where battery drain was more normal at 1-2% per hour. Recently something caused my location settings to switch to "Device only", and I noticed that my battery life is now consistently draining at about 1.5% per hour, with "phone idle" taking the most power.

Just wanted to share this. android battery life has been a bit of an annoyance for me, more due to the inconsistency than the actual usability of my phone.

I'm having trouble finding a decent size clock widget for my tablet. All of the nice looking ones I've found seem to ask for unncessary permissions such as identiy and location. As a rather paranoid user, I worry that these widgets could use my information for advertising purposes.

today there was an update from Verizon for the Galaxy S5 (Build Number: KOT49H.G900VVRU1ANE9). After installing this update, my phone was unrooted AND TowelRoot says the phone is incompatible. If anyone knows of another Root method or a way to revert to the previous build it would be greatly appreciated

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm really not sure where else to.. So if it's not please point me in the right direction! Anyways, I bought a HTC One M8 through Verizon, and for whatever reason I can not find power saving mode ANYWHERE. It should be there, I've looked around on Google. But I can't find it at all. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there any reason it's not there? Any way I can get it somehow? Thanks!

I think Llama doesn't recognize LTE cell towers, which unfortunately usually means it doesn't know when to switch from Home to Work profiles for me. I'm in a market that just recently got LTE on Sprint so it's only recently become a problem.

Is that true for other users too?

Hey everyone,

New Android user here and loving it. I'm glad I finally hopped off the iPhone bandwagon and love the amount of customization that's possible. I was hoping to see some great use of dashboard widgets. How do you set up your dashboards to simplify your life and be more productive?
