    Help Lollipop update for Verizon HTC One M8?

    I feel like I've seen articles that all the M8's have Lollipop now but my Verizon M8 isn't pulling it down. The System Update dialog always seems different, plainer, than other Android devices I've had, it almost seems like it's not even really working. Is the update live for Verizon? How do I...

    Voicemail Transcription for Verizon HTC One M8?

    Verizon offers Premium Voicemail, with transcription, for $2.99 a month, but for some insane reason you can't get it on the HTC One M8. I think it's only LG and Motorola, not even Samsung (I could be remembering wrong). So, does anyone have a voicemail-to-text app/service they like? Ideally no...

    Can I get the old Google Maps back after upgrading?

    I just updated my HTC One and now I can't downgrade to the older Google Maps that had better navigation, like I used to. Does anyone know a way to get it back??? I hate the new Google Maps! So much! I just downloaded Waze and at a glance I'm not a fan but that's just a quick glance from...

    Google Now Shopping List?

    Just got my HTC One with Google Now, which is very cool for having directions ready when I need them and things like that. I see that it shows me movie times when I'm near a theater and other things that are similarly cute and neat but not all that actually useful (though the post office I'm...

    T-Mobile service in DC area

    I'm thinking about switching from Sprint to T-Mobile once the HTC One drops. I live in Washington DC (in the actual district) and work freelance all around the area. What are people's experience with call and data service on T-Mobile around here? I don't need amazing consistent 4G, by the way...

    Help Messages always loads a draft, or opens wrong thread?

    The messaging app on my EVO 3D is being annoying: When opening a thread with my best friend, it always opens with a sentence or two from a text I wrote (after completing and sending) a few weeks ago. So then I have to delete all that text before I can write something. When tapping into a...

    Why is Messages so unpredictable???

    On my EVO 3D with the latest OS, the Messages app gets its job done but the interface is often annoyingly unpredictable. Whether I enter the app from a notification, or from the "all messages" button of the homescreen widget that looks like the "all messages" screen, or from a particular message...

    Widget to show multiple bank account balances?

    I would love to have a widget that can display balances for a few bank accounts (I use PNC). Mint has a nice widget but it simply displays all the cash you have (plus credit card balance). I have set up multiple mint accounts to view different accounts without having to view all of them, but of...

    Comparison of HTC Sense and Samsung's UI?

    I am looking for a comparison of the HTC Sense UI and the Samsung UI (Galaxy?). I'm almost 2 years into my HTC Evo 4G, later replaced under warranty with and Evo 3D, and I like it fine but am thinking about maybe switching to a Galaxy phone because it's so damn light. Since my entire Android...

    Direct dial shortcuts not working

    I am having this problem on my evo 3d though it also occurred on my evo 4g. Direct dial shortcuts I create on my home screen work a few times, and then stop working. Why is this happening and how do I fix it? Thanks :)

    Help Other caller hears echo on Bluetooth - EVO 3D

    When I use my Motorola H390 bluetooth headset with my EVO 3D, the caller on the other end sometimes hears their own voice echoing back so much that I have to turn off the headset. Does anyone know a solution for this? I love the H390 I don't want to have to find a different headset!

    Help EVO 4G Problems: Google accounts not syncing, Apps not updating

    I am having some serious problems with my EVO 4G and I'm wondering if anyone can help me before I try my luck with Sprint tech support. In decreasing order of importance: 1. My google accounts aren't syncing. Refreshing in Gmail and Calendar (or business calendar) does nothing at all, not even...

    Help Strange LED Blinking (Evo, Google Nav)

    Hi folks, When I have my Evo 4G plugged in and Google Navigation going, sometimes my LED goes from solid red (or solid green) to a weird sequence that I think is 2 red blinks followed by 1 green blink. And I'm not sure if they're in a consistent "rhythm". This doesn't happen all that often...
