I had not been able to start a thread from an Android in months. I even got a new one. I could only reply no matter what workaround I tried. I also couldn't use the search, or even call up the menu at times. I resorted to a hijack I knew would be seen by those in need of knowing. I knew it was seen, so waited patiently. But also sort of forgot to recheck every couple of days.
I just tried again for the fun of it and found that it's all now working again incuding a few things I didn't think worked at all on these devices.
This is just a confirmation and post to say thank you.
I'd like to wish everyone at the "office" a happy holiday season too.
Adriatic.
