54 | RR | I watched last week's episode and you talked about Android Auto in new cars. Ron had said that there aren't many low priced cars with AA.Well actually, I just bought a new car last month (VW Jetta). My price point was $22,000 Canadian (about $17k USD). Every single vehicle that I looked at had AA in it. In fact, it was one of my prerequisites for the new car. The cars/crossovers that I looked at are: VW Jetta Subaru Impreza Hyundai Venue Hyundai Accent Kia Forte Chevy Trax Honda Civic Toyota Corolla All of these vehicles can be found for less than $20k USD, and all have Android Auto. Most even include it as a standard feature, so even base models will have it. Just thought your viewers and listeners would like to know! Mark | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

56 | FI | This not so much a question but more of a rant. I am Canadian and live in Germany. I have always had prepaid sim cards. They are the cheapest and have no contract so if a better deal comes along I just change for a new sim card. I have a Nokia 4.2 running Android 10. Just to be clear so everyone understands My data plan along with 10's of millions of people in the EU goes for 28 days then it starts over. In Android I can only select a day of the month say the 15th that is when my data will run out this month. So on the 15th of this month when my data runs out I have to go into my phone and change the date for the data to run out to say the 12th. I like a clean Android experience with the minimum of aps. I more or less petitioning Google to not only have a monthly data reset but one for every 28 days. It seems stupid that I have to go into my phone every 28 days to reset my data. Thanks for giving me a soapbox as it were. R. Hawkins. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

59 | JH | I have buyers remorse and it's my own fault. I traded in my LG V20 ThinQ for the Google Pixel 4XL in March. I was not impressed with the battery life on the Pixel 4XL, and the Samsung S20+ was coming out in 13 days, with US Cellular try for 14 days program. Why not? Yeah, it's a huge price for a phone, but with all the reviews, it was THE phone to have. The Pixel 4XL has a QualComm SnapDragon 855 vs the S20+'s SnapDragon 865. The S20+ had a larger screen and double the RAM. Here's why not. In a word, Bixby. I disabled it day 1 and thought I was in the clear. I then bought a pair of TBI Pro earbuds, love them. The earbuds have a button on the side, and when you press it, it activates Bixby! UGH! Do any of you know how to turn off Bixby for good? US Cellular won't let me uninstall it. I thought I'd give Samsung another chance, but their UI is getting further and further from pure Android. Keep up the good work. Shawn K | https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/wearables/can-t-use-google-assistant-on-my-galaxy-buds/td-p/1727759 | - Found a support forum for Galaxy Buds - Someone trying to have them summon Assistant and not Bixby - Pretty sure this solution should work for you too: - Go to Settings>apps>bixby voice - Be sure it is NOT set to open by default (you can clear that default) - Also uncheck the permission to allow it to change system settings - Next time you use your buds to summon a voice assistant, your phone will prompt you which assistant you want to use - Select Google | ||||||||||||||||||||||
