Furthermore I have found no way to lookup addresses in the Nokia Car navigator from contacts.
I've added an additional Hotmail account and enabled syncing with Contacts, but for some reason, each of those contacts that belong to that account do not show a contact photo, it's just a blank square. Other information such as name and numbers etc are present.With the (primary) Microsoft Account i've used when setting up the phone, those very same contacts are displayed as they should be.

Droid Turbo Ballistic 64G (running v5.1). Since the last 2 Android upgrades, phone has stopped displaying a Groups tab in contacts (Favorites & All Contacts are only tabs shown)
I haven't found any settings to fix this, and validated that other brand phones did not lose Groups tab after the upgrade!
Note: phone allows contacts to be assigned to groups (as always); but haven't found a way to utilize groups & would like that capability back!

Is it possible to display an alternate contact phone number on the lock screen? If I lost my phone, a person who found it may be nice enough to call me at the alternate phone number so they could return the phone to me.
This is my first post and my first BB, I have tthe BB Bold 9700 with T-Mo. Here is my question:How do I configure the BB to display the contact info on the text message. When ever I get a text message it just shows the phone number not the name, however when I connect to my home wi-fi, the name populate the text messages but when I dissconnect from the WI-FI the names go away and the phone numbers appear...I must have done something stupid when I was setting up my contacts and or WI-FI
When I choose a contact, often, it comes up with the previously used contact... sometimes a couple of times in a row before it will let me select to right one.
Does the S6 Gallery app allow you to share/view your pics and videos on your DNLA TVs? I have a Sony TV with DNLA and I can currently share using the "screen" button at the top of the image/vid.
Not even sure if this is a Lollipop feature or a Samsung Gallery app thing. Assumed the latter as Quickpic doesn't allow this.
My new S5 keeps getting its display time out value reset to a value of "()", there is no numeric value between the parenthesis. I switch it back to 15 or 30 and seemingly randomly it gets changed. It happened just now after plugging it in to a charger.
Is there some way to see what changes it? Its getting super annoying, happens 2-3 times a day. I run very few apps... and most of those I ran on my old thunderbolt with no issues. Several I also run on my wifes new S5 but she has no problem with hers.
It there a way to NOT show certain app's notification on the lockscreen? I came from LG G2 CM12 to Samsung stock (rooted 5.1.1).
In CM12 there is an option for each app to control that (see screenshot below).
But in Samsung rom, there is no such option and I can only hide the content of notification (but not the notification itself). Or I can disable all notifications on lockscreen, which is not what I want.
I want to use the phone for a night time clock... looking for a good clock to use with Daydream display mode... would like large numbers with brightness setting...
Is there a way to make active/ambient display on S6 just like in the Moto X series which display a single clock and notifications every time a notification comes or you wave your hands close to it or take it out of the pocket.As S6 habe that screen from the Clear View case, probably it should be easy to show the same screen in the active/ambient display ocasions.
My Samsung Galaxy S6 display keeps turning on and off. And I mean it lights up, then goes black....lights up...then goes black....all day, all night. My battery is draining at least 4-5 times a day. I've tried rebooting. I've tried starting in Safe Mode. Nothing works. And this problem started out of the blue. While the phone is being used....making a phone call, texting or using an app the screen doesn't do this. But if its just sitting there its turning on and off and draining my battery.
I've tried the S6 on the Google and Nokia wireless charging pads and the screen illuminates every few seconds. This is especially annoying at night. I don't have the option to keep awake while charging selected and this doesn't happen with the plug-in charger.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal? I also own a Nexus 6 and I don't have that issue with either charging pad.
