I am on Cricket (ATT). But the phone was originally a showroom demonstrater for Sprint. Does this matter?

I seem to remember... But I could be wrong... That the menu your looking for is not available on Sprint... Because there some other menu available only to Sprint... How you get it... I have no idea... Only been on AT&T since Android...

That's not an easter egg, that's a one-off predition of a word it doesn't know. I do like that it knows that word, however. I am also a fan.

Don't mean to hijack the thread but I'm just curious to know why Swiftkey requires full internet access.

My guess would be because it downloads language files when you install it.

did motorola really push moto voice update to my 2013 moto x

So somehow the moto voice app was pushed to my 2013 moto x, and I'm a little confused as to why.... Anyone else seeing this?

I'm sure that's what happened but when I install this it removes the touch less control option from the settings screen, but also won't show the voice app.
Here's some screenshots to show you what's going on..

Okay thank you! I was looking all over for something about it, I was getting all excited they were pushing it. Weirdest thing ever. But it turns out that it doesn't even work when installed. Bummer!
I believe it says support for the Moto 360?

AOSP Keyboard on Stock OS

Is it possible to get the AOSP Keyboard without having to install an AOSP ROM?
Google keyboard is in the play store.

There is a Google Keyboard and then there is an AOSP keyboard

They are essentially one and the same. The only difference is that one doesn't offer to back up to your Google account. I have both on my 6P and the AOSP is missing a few settings but overall the same thing as it always has been
Doesn't the AOSP keyboard have punctuation/symbols as longpress options on the keys? They also show up by default instead of having to longpress to see the alternate keys.

Yes it does, but so does the Google one, at least it does right now. I have both on my phone and just checked by long pressing the 'a' key

Oh woops. I don't know why I thought I read your version as newer than mine. That's an older version than the one on my phone. I don't think it's going to help.

It's no problem, I use the AOSP one normally so i don't keep the Google one up to date on occasion.

I agree.
I set a rule to activate ring mode when connected to my home wifi but everytime I disconnect from it phone returns to vibration mode. Unwanted behavior.

You can now automate your phone's setting using the 'Rules' feature on your Pixel https://www.androidcentral.com/you-...phones-setting-using-rules-feature-your-pixel
Had this for a few days. I have a few rules set up, but I hope Google expands on the capabilities.
