The Google support menu, can't see any chat option - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As stated, Android 8.0, all I see is tips and tricks and the search help section.
Is it location bound or what ?

fast contact search

What is the fastest, quickest, speediest way to search for a contact? with or without an application
the universal search app. part of donut 1.6 and included with cyanogenmod experimental.
you mean the hardware search button? that just searches online, unless I first open contacts and then use it. Can I get a shortcut to directly search contacts?
no, the universal search app. it behaves in a similar manner to spotlight on OSX - searches your handset for contacts, web history, music etc. The results of which appear directly beneath the search bar.
ok, don't think I have that, in the 'about phone' section is says firmware 1.5. How can I upgrade to 1.6? I have a vodafone magic so not sure if that's possible. Or is there another way to get the app? There seem to be plenty of search apps on the market but don't think any of them are what you are describing
to get it you will need to flash CyanogenMod ROM
Oh ok, will look for an app that can do a similar job, as I can't be bothered to erase and reinstall everything. Thanks.
You Don;t have to.............

Download "aurora" Free off the android Market , its exactly the same as the universal search and to top it off it was actually made by a Dev on this forum. You'll see the thread in the Dream forum if you wish to have a look at the dev
Enjoy

[Q] a missing kernel

amazinglarry had posted a few items up here, and allegedly had them taken down and all mod comments point to finding the stuff on "HIS OWN WEBSITE" only problem is his profile doesnt have a website listed, and a google search doesn't work either...
and surprisingly... the mods lock up anything referencing him quickly... hopefully i can get an answer before an overzealous mod locks this up as well.

[Q] Android Services List

This is the question to developers:

[Q] Com2USPoker? Not in GroupPlay? And other first time Andriod user questions...

Hi everyone,
Just transferred from iPhone 4 to the Galaxy S4 and am experiencing comething of a shock between the two operating systems. I am NOT going to be rooting or changing the factory OS in any way, just using the sotck OS and systems provided by Samsung. My biggest questions are:
1) Disabling/Enabling pre-installed apps (AT&T junk, etc.): If I disable a pre-installed app, find that it affects a function I like (Google I'm looking at you...) and then re-enable it, will that adversely affect my phone in any way? Ie. will I get back the funcionality that I originally had? Can I brick my phone completely accidently by disabling a key application?
2) Com2USPoker: WHERE IS THIS APP? I like to know that every function on my phone works before committing but I cannot for the life of me find this app. It is not in GroupPlay, App screen, anywhere but Application manager and it says that it is enabled. Does the App only show up in GroupPlay when there are multiple samsung devices connected to the GroupPlay app? As a pefectionist, this is really bugging me that I cannot find this app.
Any advice would be appreciated! Please go easy on me as I am new to Android
I suggest you read the "pinned" threads in the General and Q & A sections before you do ANYTHING to your phone. Also, use the Q & A section as an area to bring up or ask about new or previously un-discussed issues and topics only after you have read and searched for existing topics and answers. Searching, reading, and learning will get you what you need around here.
If I were you it'd stick with the iphone. This is a development forum. Not a user forum.

Question Developer Options?

A friend gave me her old Cricket Dream. I did a factory reset, logged into my Google account, no issues except it's not letting me tap the build and enable developer options.
Easter egg pops up when I hit the section that triggers it. Just doesn't register that I'm tapping the Build section. Looks like it may be greyed out.
I apologize in advance if this has been covered. I did a search and didn't find any other posts under this phone where someone has faced this issue.
Nevermind. Didn't realize there was a second Build number.
In my defense, the build number on every Android I have seen has been under About>Software. This is the first time I've seen it listed under Software and grayed out but have a second location at the very bottom of the main tree under About
I don't know how many people have run into this, so I'll leave it to the mods whether or not to leave this post up or delete it.
