    Do any stores sell this phone?

    I want to buy the Nexus 5, but because of a long and complex story the money to buy this phone is half cash and half on a bank card. Because of this, I can't buy the phone online, so I'm trying to find out if any brick and mortar stores sell this phone? I called best buy but they said they...

    Root How to boot into CWM on LG Connect??

    Stupid question, I know. This is my girlfriends phone and I installed a ROM on it a long ass time ago. But I'm updating it because this thing randomly reboots 24/7, so I figured I'd try a new updated ROM. Except I can't figure out what the damn button combo is to boot into CWM for this...

    Root Test Mode Nightmare, Can text but not call

    Sooo recently my phone, for no reason at all, went into Test Mode. I was able to use the SWEET thread by Fuzzy to get my service bars back on, and the phone out of test mode. HOWEVER, I was one of the few who had a different Min code than my phone number. I got the # from a metro rep, and it...

    Use wifi for voice calls?

    So where I live I get almost no service. Is there any way i can call people over my wifi instead of my zero bars? I guess I could use skype but I have to pay to make phone calls instead of VoIP calls. I looked into Google Voice but I have no clue how it works and apparently MetroPCS is...

    Root MMS not working?

    Anyone else unable to download pictures or whatever from SMS messages? If someone texts me a picture it never downloads. Aren't there some kind of MetroPCS settings I can input somewhere to fix it? I remember having to do that on my ascend after installing custom ROM. Then again where I...

    Root Changed boot animation, now stuck in boot loop

    So I can boot to CWM, but I deleted the GSE zip file from my SD card a while ago to save space. How do I get USB mass storage so I can put the rom back on my SD card and re-flash it?? Changing boot animations worked every other time for me... maybe it was me renaming PowerOn.mp3 in...

    Anyone else getting bad unlock screen lag?

    Often times when I unlock my phone it's laggy and makes me feel like I'm still using my Huawei Ascend even though I paid out of my ass for this new phone. Anyone else get that? I only have a few apps and kanaidiaeidada's LG optimizer, perhaps a factory reset post optimizer would help or no?

    Help Bubble-style only on LG Esteem SMS?

    I know I can use other SMS apps, but I like to keep my list of downloaded apps to a minimum. Google didn't help me with this, but am I missing something here? I scoured EVERY option I could find on this phone several times and I STILL cannot figure out how to get back my list-style SMS viewing...

    Newbie Question about hardware Media Players

    So, I just got this LG Esteem and I would love to buy a charging dock that can also play the music on my phone. The default phone speaker is not loud enough (I don't think) to use at work since I work in a semi-loud kitchen but I used to have an iPod that could do this and loved it. So, is...

    Stylus for Ascend?

    Okay so I'm probably an OCD nut or something, but this finger oil business is killin me! I deviced a quick solution -- wrap some toilet paper around my finger and keep it there with a rubberband. The downside to this is ... my finger turns a bit purple. So I went online and paid for a stylus...
