    Root QuickRemote on ZV5 custom?

    The one feature I miss using is Quick Remote, I am running ZV5 custom and Volt Uno kernel, and I can't figure out how to get that feature back. Ideas?

    Root Freedompop Optimus F3 custom ROM?

    Anyone have any ideas how I'd go about setting up the freedompop services on a flashed ROM? I know they allow BYOD so it can't be any more than just installing their app, right? I ask because I don't like their stock rom, and I was fond of using the AdvancedStock V8 rom when I was with Virgin...

    Root Freedompop Force..

    Anyone have any experience with the ZTE force on freedompop? I ordered one, since it was $25. It should be here someday soon, and I was wondering...How's the unlimited plan? I'm in dire need of something half decent for tethering at home, since we have no other options, i've been searching for...

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] What does v8 add, anyway?

    What's the difference from v5 to v6 to v7 to v8, anyone?

    Root Stupid question...

    I know that you can't take VM branded phones anywhere else, but what about getting the Boost Volt over to VM? I'm sure that's a no, as well. It's cheaper on amazon. Only $60, that's why i'm curious. I hate boost's plans.

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] Laggy physical buttons, random reboots, no service now?

    After my battery died one night, I turned it back on after a charge, and I was greeted with the title problems. I have been on AdvancedStockV7 for a while now... Been trying to clean flash new/other roms since, same problems persist from install to install with CWM 6.0.4.8. Ideas, anyone...

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] Data switching script...

    Is it possible to make a script to toggle the data network, say from LTE/CDMA to CDMA only, then back to LTE/CDMA quickly? Also, something that periodically checks the network speed, and if it's below a certain threshold, to toggle the network?

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] ROM ideas...

    Some ideas for an amazing ROM: -The LG camera has some good features, and seems faster than the Nexus camera. Keep it, but make it silent. I know it's easy to do, but when I did it, I lost use of my ringtones besides the default LG ringtone? Only think the LG camera misses besides silence is...

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] All the ringtones sound the same?

    I haven't tried using any custom ringtones, but all of the included ones sound like the LG one. What gives?

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] Bought another F3

    In hopes of using as a dedicated internet source. But..of course, it's counting data use on this one. But not "my main" phone. It did come pre updated to V6 as well..hmm.

    Confirmed unthrottled LTE?? (Sorta kinda??)

    I've had mostly unthrottled LTE. I'm not sure why, but if I move my phone an inch, it'll knock back to 3G, but it will still get as high as 400 KB/s download. But, I wanted 4G back because I get 1.2 MB/s, so I switched airplane mode on and off, and then it connected me but I was being...

    Uh oh..VM to start throttling back to 2G..

    I got a text that VM will start throttling data back to 2G after 2.5 GB...Somehow with my new F3, LTE has been unlimited, I used the cap on purpose with the Evo V I had, and then my F3 came. I was throttled on LTE only on two short instances, but after rooting and installing wifi tether, my data...

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] Just got the phone yesterday! So many questions.

    My review: I just got this phone yesterday, rooted it right away, swapped external SD for internal, now i have 32 GB of storage for EVERYTHING including apps. Plus wifi tether! LTE is underwhelming for LTE, but it could just be my area. I'm not getting the super speeds others are getting, just...

    Root Unlimited 3G No throttle! I did it!

    I somehow managed to break the throttle, and I used 35 GB of data according to my phone, in october, all at full speed(!!), as fast as 2.5 Mbits down and .9 Up. Averaging about 1.5 down and .7 up, though. Still awesome for being in a rural area. It's been nonstop since. I just haven't rebooted...

    Root A neat little wifi tether trick I found!

    I use wifi tether for when I want to play games online, right? So I wanted to figure out how I could connect to my xbox over a wired connection (save $50 for the wireless adapter, on top of the $15 a month tether savings!:D). All I had to do was bridge my wireless and wired adapters on windows...
