Traffic alerts? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6

Hey guys. How do I turn on traffic alerts such as accidents and such for the stock google maps app?

Go into the Google search app, go to settings, go to now cards and select what you want it to give you.

Google voice is notifying me through text and google voice

even thought i have sync disabled
I believe those settings are changed from Google voice account. I had the same problem couldn't figure out how to get them to stop. I couldn't find the right setting in the Google voice app. You can change that from a "full" browser in your Google voice account. Either go to your Gmail account on your phone in full web mode or go there on a desktop computer. I don't remember how I did it, but you can change that from the mobile Google voice webpage too, but most of the time I can only get to the page telling me to download it.

Q: How to store Favorite Contacts on WP7

Guyz... This issue is killing me. Is there a way to store Favorite Contacts on WP7?
I can see that the People Tile stores the "recent" Contacts for calls placed or received. But is there a way to actually store Favorites for Contacts?
Thanks for your help in advance.
The best I can think of is pinning your favorite contacts to the start screen.
Just press and hold the desired contact and use the option "Pin to start"
personally I too would prefer to have a Favorite Tile on the start which has all my favorite people..something like a filtered version of the people tile.

[Q] Offline Gmail

Hi there, I'm still fairly new to Android and i have hopefully a simple question.
Till so far I have used the gmail app without a problem and due to my unlimited data plan I don't care for pulling the email from the web. But soon ill go on a vacation and i want to save a couple if not all my emails on my phone with attachments. And I don't know if that is possible with the gmail app.
If your asking how to save your current e-mails(with photos) but not be charged for data while roaming than you
click the check mark beside the e-mail
and at the bottom 3 options should pop up (archive,delete,labels)
click archive.
to view the email search your inbox for the title of the e-mail or who it was from.
If your asking how to stop photo's from downloading because your roaming then.
Gmail has the option "show pictures" (which downloads the pictures)
just do not click that and the picture wont download.
If you dont want to use data while on vacation then
go to your Home screen
click the options button
then settings
then wireless & networks
make sure "Mobile Network" is UN-checked
then your phone wont use any data (unless on wi-fi)

Any way to prevent Google Dashboard from logging everything online?

If one was to use the Samsung Note it seems that Google Dashboard would have a copy of all contacts,locations visited,locations searched,Youtube videos watched etc.. Is there a way to prevent all that from happening and from any record being left online with Google's Google Dashboard? This is pretty much the same thing almost as that Carrier IQ.
Bump.. Anyone
I also would like to know that. ..

I am not really sure if I understood your question completely ... but I try
Did you try to disable syncing in the settings? (privacy, accounts)
If you do not want your calendar to sync, disable the use of Google calendar, or use an app that doesn't try to sync with your Google account in the first place.
In my country I also saw the possibility to uncheck tracking on the Google page, again under "settings". Google.com has this too. I think Google will remember this in a cookie, therefore if you delete cookies regularly there's no point adapting the settings ...

Removing Foursquare

Greetings all,
I have an unlocked Note 9 (Model #SM-N960U1) I bought directly from Samsung that I use on the T-mobile network. I keep my schedules using Samsung's calendar app. When I attempt to add a location to my schedules more often than not the location can't be found. Apparently, my unlocked Note 9 is using "Foursquare" as Samsung's calendar maps search engine. Is there a way to remove Foursquare from my device, or at the very least select Google maps as the default for Samsung's calendar app?
You could always disable the app through adb commands
Clear Search
I haven't figured out how to get rid of "power by Foursquare" in the Samsung Calendar and make it go back to using Google Maps, but I did find a work around:
X out of the text in the SEARCH field
Select your current location from the list of pre-populated choices
It will let you switch from "Keyword" to "Address"
Then you can search for the address you really want
You should then be able to click DONE from the results
I prefer the Samsung Calendar widget since it has Transparency as an option but I guess I'll have to find a 3rd party widget that opens Google Calendar instead.
