    Don't know if this is in the correct section of the message board but do you think the next generation of smart phones in general will be indestructible? I read somewhere about the s4 potentially having an unbreakable screen but I don't know how legitimate that source is. Also, been thinking...

    Problem with QuickPic app

    I just downloaded the QuickPic app as I've heard it let's you crop photos more precisely than the standard s3 gallery. While QuickPic let's me crop pics to my liking I can't save them to my background has anyone else had this problem?

    Issue with Battery Life

    Im still a fairly new droid user so I apologize if I'm if this is an obvious answer. My settings show that my screen display and call standby are the two main things draining my battery. I personally need to have a bright screen and hate the auto brightness feature as its always dark. Then I...
