    Root Can I root my Verizon HTC One M8 with Android 5.01?

    Does anyone know of a way to root the Verizon HTC One M8 with Android 5.01? After re-loading the stock recovery, I took an OTA to get 5.01 which un-rooted my phone (and I knew that would happen). I checked the root thread and the last time the "All Things Root Guide" was updated was a year ago...

    Help Apps keep crashing even after reinstall

    I have two apps (that I know of) that crash a few seconds after I launch them. One is called "The Score", the other is "Channel 3000". They don't even finish loading, then they just disappear and I'm back at my home screen. I've uninstalled the apps, powered off and waited a minute before...

    Contacts/People Widget for Google Now Launcher?

    Anyone know of a good contacts/people widget that works with the Google Now Launcher? I really like the HTC Sense widget, but it obviously doesn't work with the GNL. Does Google offer one? I can't seem to find it if they do.

    Root Sense 6.0 for Cyanogenmod?

    Is it possible to install HTC Sense 6.0 on CM11 on the Verizon version of the M8? I realize that, to some, this may sound like it defeats the purpose of CM. But for me, I like Sense and neither Viper nor Revolution have 4.4.4 ROMS available yet for the Verizon M8.

    Suggestions on a replacement phone/plan?

    So I recently destroyed my HTC One M8 by accidentally taking it snorkeling with me. Only being six months into my contract, I'm a long ways away from being eligible for an upgrade. I wrote to Verizon explaining what happened, admitting 100% fault, and asking if they'd be willing to help me out...

    Snorkeling with the HTC One M8

    So I thought I'd share a photo of what happens to an HTC One M8 after you go snorkeling with it for about an hour in the ocean. Notice the burn marks all over the copper: In case you're actually wondering, no, I did not do this deliberately. :p

    Magazine e-reader for existing subscriptions?

    I can't seem to find information on this anywhere. Is there an Android app that I can use on my tablet for reading magazines for which I have an existing subscription? Everything I'm finding (Google Play Newstand, Zinio, etc.) seems to require purchasing a subscription but doesn't give an option...

    Magazine e-reader for existing subscriptions

    I can't seem to find information on this anywhere. Is there an app that allows users to view their existing magazine subscriptions on an Android tablet (in this case, the Nook HD+)? Everything I've tried (Google Newstand, Zinio, etc.) seems to only allow me to make new purchases. I'd really like...

    No more discounts for Alltel plans

    This might be in another thread, but I didn't find it after searching so please don't hang me if it is. =) Apparently, Verizon has recently enacted a new policy that disallows "corporate" discounts (e.g. through your employer) on Alltel plans. Since Verizon's acquisition of Alltel, I have kept...

    Help Bluetooth file transfers keep deleting

    When I pair by GS3 with my laptop and transfer a file to my GS3, the file shows up in the "Bluetooth" folder. Then, it disappears. I've tried this a few times with the same result. Does anyone know why it keeps deleting itself or how I can fix it?

    Help 3.5mm output (headset) jack faulty design?

    When I plug in external speakers, headphones, or a tape adapter to the 3.5mm audio output on my Razr MAXX, the lead vocals are barely noticeable while backup vocals and other instruments are relatively much louder than they should be. This is consistent with all music played and with no matter...

    Help Vibrate works for SMS, not for e-mail

    When I have the sound profile set to "normal", the volume is up for every category, and "vibration feedback for calls and notifications" is checked, I hear a sound notification and the phone vibrates when I receive an SMS or MMS, just as it should. However, when I receive an e-mail, I only hear...

    Which song do you want played at your funeral?

    I don't mean to sound morbid, but we're all gonna die someday, right? So, if there was ONE song, just one, that could be played at your funeral, what would it be? Any song, any artist/composer, any genre. For me, it's "If I ever leave this world alive" by Flogging Molly. An awesome song that...

    Galaxy Nexus camera discussion

    I simply can't get past the sad fact that this phone only has a 5mp camera. I've read a lot of nonsense commentary about that, saying things like "megapixels don't mean anything anymore". The simple fact of the matter is, while the number of megapixels certainly is not the only significant spec...
