    Help Would you move from an HTC One M9 to an S8+?

    Just curious here on feedback whether someone would or would make that move for say $550. A lot of specs seem pretty comparible, and not sure that it's worth it, as much as I want the new phone. Anything stand out for folks that make it a no brainer to move to the S8+? Or anyone agree that...

    Help What the heck happened to my storage???

    I don't understand what's going on. Before I upgraded my HTC One M9 to Marshmallow, I could plug in my phone via USB, and browse to either the external or internal storage.

    Accessories Where do I find a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter that works for my S4?

    This has been an issue for as long as I can remember. I have a Plantronics headset that has a 2.5mm plug on it. I'd really like the ability to use this headset with my S4. So I've tried, no joke, probably a dozen different 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapters, and in test calls, the person said I sound...

    Help New user, how can I get buttons to act like my S4?

    Hi - I'm a fairly new user to my Tab 4. I notice 2 things different from both my S4 and many other android devices: 1) Holding the center button brings me to some Google Now thing instead of task manager like I'm used to. 2) Pressing the left button, instead of bringing up the menu of wherever...

    Help Using battery quicker than it will charge?

    I've had this annoying issue for some time - when my phone is charging, and I use it, it drains quicker than it charges and results in an auto power down when depleted. Seems to be worse on car charger than wall charger, but both do it. Left me lost without a GPS the other day cuz I couldn't...

    Root [Verizon] Question about OTA on current ROM, and some specific factors when choosing a ROM

    Comparing SynergyROM and Hyperdrive.... So I've been running on SynergyROM since almost their first release, and it seems to work very well, with a few VERY minor exceptions: Bluetooth is a little flakey. Sometimes bluetooth to a speaker skips a little, though one internet streaming app...
