    Help Mapping Network Drive with ES File Explorer

    Hi All, I'm trying to find an easy way to be able to access media on all my devices. I've got an external hard drive attached to my router which so far works quite well (on PC) but I can't seem to figure out how to get it working on my Android phone and TV box.

    Help Keeping Screen on when Apps are Running

    Some times when I have an app running the screen will automatically turn off even if I'm looking at the phone directly. Is there an app or option in Settings where the screen will stay on if an app or certain apps are running in the foreground?

    Good Headphones for Galaxy S3

    Looking for some new in-ear headphones around the $150 range. I've used the Bose MIE2i's with my iPhone for the past 2 years but have since given them to the ball-and-chain. There are great for running (which I do a fair amount of) but lack sound isolation and good bass. What I'm looking for...
