    T-Mobile Prepaid Coverage

    Hoping someone who knows can clarify this for me: I'm a Verizon customer and thinking about switching to T-Mobile so that I have a wider selection of phones to choose from (read: Nexus). I'm trying out their network on a prepaid $30 plan. So far, it's been pretty good although I hit a spot...

    Remotely wipe phone

    Can any of you suggest an app that will allow you to remotely wipe your phone in the event that it's lost? I don't really care for all of the bells and whistles (virus protection, etc.) I just want to wipe my phone if I lose it. Thanks!

    Help 4G Back online - battery worse

    Before 4G went out few days ago, I was getting pretty good battery life (40% - 60% remaining by bed time). Since it's been back online, my phone is only lasting about 6 or 7 hours before it starts to die. Has anyone else noticed worse battery performance since 4G has come back online...

    Help Noisy Vibrate

    I could have sworn that there was a thread regarding this, but a search yielded no results... I just got my replacement TB and I noticed that vibrate is extremely loud. It's sounds like a rattle. Has anyone else replaced their phone and gotten one of these rattling vibrators, haha? It's...

    Help Go SMS Issues

    Are there any Go SMS users that are able to reliably send texts? No matter what I do, I seem to have issues sending texts. I've tried with/without the stock mms app installed. Thanks.

    Help WinAmp data usage

    I've noticed that WinAmp has been using data. Today, I've used it for about 45 minutes and it has sent 11 kb and received 7 kb. It's also consumed 24% of my battery (I'm down to 40% right now). I'm not using it to stream music, just to play my mp3s off of the phone. If there are any WinAmp...

    awesomeness

    Being stuck at work, late = lame Streaming SDSU vs CONN via CBS flash content on my Thunderbolt over LTE while using my kickstand = pure awesomeness. You can now return to your regularly scheduled forum snooping.

    FFC Lens Coming off

    I realize that it's probably not the actual lens, but a protective glass/plastic that sits above the actual lens. Either way, I'll call it a "lens" for the sake of explanation. Today I noticed a piece of lint stuck on the top of the front facing camera lens. When I got a closer look, I...

    Having GPS issues?

    I've seen several posts about people having issues getting location based services to work quickly and accurately. My location based services (including navigation) are working perfectly, so I figured I'd make sure people knew about the location settings in a new thread. Go into Menu ->...

    Help Text correction bar

    I'm sure you've all noticed that when you type on the keyboard, the text correction/selection bar pops up and tries to predict text. I recently found out that you can long-press on the bar and move it around. This is a good thing because it covers the "Send" button in the mms app. But, when...

    Help Static while using Bluetooth

    I'm getting minor "crackling" static when using bluetooth to stream media in my car. I've used a Captivate, iPhone, and Atrix to stream with this stereo and none of them had this issue which gives me confidence that it's not the stereo. Anyone else experiencing this static?

    Video File Types

    Does anyone know of the list of supported video file types? I just tried to play an .avi and it looks like that's not supported. My last two Android's had no problem playing them :(

    Help keyboard sounds

    Does anyone know how to adjust the volume for keyboard clicks? It has gotten really quiet and im not sure how. Thanks! I just noticed the lock sounds have gotten really quiet too. Figured it out. It's controlled by the system volume. I somehow decreased the system volume using quick settings.
