    Help Purchase a Verizon S6 Edge+ for Straight Talk with ability to switch to GSM carrier/International?

    I'm planning to switch over to Straight Talk, and to purchase a Galaxy S6 Edge+ to bring along with me. I've been researching which brand of phone to purchase and what would work best. Originally, I was thinking of purchasing the AT&T phone since it's GSM and, if I travel internationally, I...

    Root [Virgin Mobile] Voicemail APK

    Does anyone have the Virgin Mobile Voicemail APK? The last one I had was t.5.3.4.30. I wanted to copy voicemail from a previous backup over to my current voicemail app. So I restored the "data only" with TiBU, and my voicemail app disappeared. I've been trying to restore just the app from TiBU...

    Help [VIRGIN MOBILE] Search Function Within Apps

    So I was lamenting the missing dedicated search button on the S3, when I happened to long press the menu button within an app and discovered that that is how you can access the search function now. A Google search might have revealed this knowledge to me too, but I'd never gotten around to...

    Root [Virgin Mobile] Virgin Mobile Boot Animation

    Does everyone have a VM start screen? Out of the box, mine didn't. Once I activated it, it restarted and showed the VM boot-up, but after that it never came back. It just says "Samsung Galaxy SIII," and then the Samsung logo, and that's it. I'm wondering if there's anything different about my phone.

    Help [VIRGIN MOBILE] Storage Space

    This should be the 16 GB version. Off the bat, it says there's about 12 GB available. Is it really reserving / using the other 4 GB? Also, anyone think VM will introduce an S3 with more capacity at some point?

    Root [Virgin Mobile] Rooting the S3

    According to this post, you can follow this rooting method if your S3 starts with any of these model numbers: For anyone who already has the phone, does the VM model match any of them? It says it should work on Sprint too; will we be able to use this rooting method?

    Who's Upgrading to the S3?

    I'm planning on upgrading, most likely, as I still have some problems with my phone, and am ready for something new. Even if I didn't have problems, I think it's time for a change anyway. I'm wondering what everyone else is doing- hopefully a bunch of you guys are upgrading too, because it would...

    Help No Voicemail Notification

    I've looked around, and seen threads where people can't get rid of their voicemail notifications, but my problem is receiving any notification to begin with. This month, since I received my replacement phone, I haven't received any voicemail notifications. After a few people told me that they'd...

    Root Replacement Phone and OTAs

    Virgin is sending me a replacement phone, because this current replacement phone is having problems with the GPS. Blame my short-term memory, but all the reading I'd done regarding this recent OTA and the steps that will work and won't work has gotten all jumbled in my head. I assume the phone...

    Slim Extended battery - Plus, 10 Minute Battery Charge

    The 10-minute battery charge is not here for us yet, but one can dream. Also, I already have an extended battery (3500 mAh) that works well. I'm often a heavy user, and this has significantly extended my battery life. But lately I've been tiring of the bulk, and want to be able to use some...

    Help Programming Code

    Do any of the steps in the "turn your phone into..." thread alter the ability for your phone to use programming codes? Lately I have noticed an issue again with a lost signal for a short period of time. My texts take a while to go through. I recently tried calling my phone when I noticed this...

    Help "System Enhancement" update for ICS?

    For the past week or so, I have been receiving a notification for a new update. I keep ignoring it, as I'm not sure what it's for. My phone is rooted and s-off. I followed the "turn your phone into an Evo 3D" thread, and have not had problems since, so haven't been messing with it at all. I...

    Help My Time / Clock Keeps Jumping Ahead 6 Hours

    So for a while now, every so often I will check the time on my phone and it will be six hours ahead (usually). If I go to the clock and then settings, and check/uncheck "automatic date & time," or restart the phone, it corrects itself for the moment. For the past week though, this has been...

    Great App For Quick Brightness Change

    One thing I really liked about Leedroid was the ability to swipe right or left on my notification bar in order to quickly change the brightness of my screen, without having to open the tray, or do anything else. I change the screen brightness often, and I don't want a widget, and it's too many...

    Help YouTube 3D Videos No Longer Working + Pandora Mobile Streaming Issue

    I noticed that 3D videos no longer work on YouTube. If I take 3D pictures or videos myself, they appear in 3D, so the 3D function itself still works. But videos that used to appear as 3D on YouTube, now only appear as 2 videos side-by-side. I did find a similar thread in the Evo 3D forum, but...

    Help Your Speedtest Results

    I don't know if this is a network issue in my area or something else, but my data speeds are ridiculous (in a bad way). I get these speeds when I am driving around too, so it can't be a small area either. What speeds are you all getting? This is for 3G, not 4G, since I can't pick up 4G in...

    Help Disabling HTC Lock Screen (Sense 3.6)

    Is there a way to turn off the default HTC lock screen? I prefer to use WidgetLocker. But it seems as though the HTC locker runs underneath this. It will flicker through sometimes, before WL takes over. I don't know if it's a drain on battery or resources to have both, but I'd rather disable the...

    Root Rooting Before Activating

    I am currently on a different carrier, but will be switching over to the Evo V and Virgin Mobile very soon. I already bought the phone, and would like to set it up in the meantime; put all my apps on it, set it up how I like it. Part of setting it up though would mean rooting it, since I...

    Root [CDMA] Evo 3d or Evo V working with Boost Mobile WiMax?

    So I'm thinking of getting the Evo 3D/V. I was going to switch to Virgin Mobile, but I was wondering if there is a way to do this with Boost, since they have shrinking payments. Since Boost and Virgin both upgraded to WiMax, I was wondering if flashing would make a difference. Obviously, the Evo...

    Samsung Galaxy S ii work with WiMax?

    So here's the deal: I switched over to Boost from Virgin mobile earlier this year. I was sick of Virgin's phone lineup. I got the Marquee, which is horrible, one of my least favorite phones ever. It's slow, freezes, restarts, for starters. The 3G is also terribly slow, worse than when I was on...

    Copying "stock" ringtones from a phone

    Is it possible to locate and then copy the ringtones that come with a phone so as to transfer them to another? In this case specifically, I was wondering if it were possible to copy the ringtones that come with the Virgin Mobile Samsung Intercept to use on the LG Optimus V.
