    Samsung customer service really shoddy!

    So anyway, I called Samsung Customer Service to ask if the new Note 2 I asked Santa for was on its way and they had no idea what I was talking about! And to make it even worse their line kept cutting out. While talking with this young lady who was clearly annoyed by the last customer or...

    Google Now question

    So how long does it take for Google Now to actually, you know, be useful? Granted, I have only had it for six days (since 12/14), but I can't see it actually doing anything other than update sports scores (for teams that *I* created cards for), show the weather and show how long it is from work...

    Music player problem or is the phone telling me something?

    I was playing music on my s3 earlier today and it suddenlt started skipping, but always on the same lyric and only on one song. I was listening to some Robert Palmer and all it kept playing was "Might as well face it you're a dic.... Might as well face it you're a dic.... Might as well face...

    Does anybody here actually USE Google Now?

    Howdy folks, Do any of you actually use Google Now? All I tend to see are people saying it's a waste of battery life so they turned it off. Is it really useful? Is it cool? Are you impressed? I'm on verizon, so I don't have it yet. I don't want to root or flash.

    REALLY stupid question re: Google Now

    Is it possible to import the Google Now "learned database" (Not sure what else to call it) into another phone? What I mean is that if, say, my wife had Google Now that she had been using for a month as it "learns", when I get the JB update and therefore acquire Google Now, is there a...

    Verizon gets Jelly Bean on 12/14?

    Just an FYI: Droid Life is reporting that an anonymous source says verizon will get Jelly Bean next Friday, 12/14/12. Take it for what it's worth. [URL="http://www.droid-life.com/2012/12/07/fourth-jelly-bean-update-leaks-for-verizons-galaxy-s3/"]Fourth Jelly Bean Update Leaks for Verizon

    Root [Verizon] Tired of waiting

    So if I flash (not root) the latest jelly bean ROM, when the "official" rollouts start, do I then need to un-flash to get hooked back up on the regular updates and stuff or will the official upgrade push out my flashed ROM? Sorry, but I'm a noob to androids alltogether.

    So if and when (damn Verizon!) I finally get the update to JB, will all of my NFC tags still work or would I have to reprogram them?
