    Anyone Considering Switching to the Razr HD/Maxx HD?

    I really like my S3 a lot. Overall, it's the best phone I've had. But after having used it for nearly three months now, I can honestly say that the reception, both for calls and 4G are not as good as on my previous phones. This hasn't been a huge issue but there have been instances where it...

    How Much Do You Love Your S3?

    Title says it all. I love it so far. My only complaint would be Samsung's inconsistent build quality. For example, my power button is pretty loose. So is the phone displayed at the store I got it from. I'm not worried that it's going to fall out, but my friends S3 's power button is much...

    Root So what have you done with root?

    Now that perm root has finally been achieved :) what have you done to take advantage of it? Things I've done: -Installed Amon Ra recovery and made a nandroid back-up. -Installed Quickboot from the market to access recovery with one button press. -Froze all the bloat and other apps I don't use...

    Manually turn off soft key lights!!!

    I watch a lot of videos right before I go to bed. It has to be in the dark b/c my wife is usually sleeping right next to me. As much as I love the HD screen, the one thing that did annoy me was that the red soft keys would stay lit while watching. Though I got used to it after a while, I came...

    Root How important is root to you?

    Having now had the phone for nearly a month, it has been almost everything I expected my next phone to be. I've not had a single issue with overheating, bootlooping or any other issues others seemed to have encountered. That's not to say that the phone's been perfect. I don't like the...

    Anyone with every intention of keeping the Rezound still planning on checking out the GNex?

    Now that we know that the GNex will drop this Friday, will anyone who plans on keeping their Rezound still going to go check out the GNex? I, for one, love my phone. It's been great since day one and it's made me forget just about everything to do with the GNex. I just about because as...

    How Does Your Rezound Roll?

    I'm not really a clumsy person. And one of the main reasons I wanted to go with the rezound was because it felt smaller in the hand than the razr and likely the GNex (just based on specs). I felt that adding a case would negate this advantage for me. But for some reason, Ive had two drops and...

    Who knew that a phone could bring you peace of mind?

    Like many of you here I was on the fence between the three new phones verizon was launching starting with the moto razr, then the rezound and finally the upcoming GNex. I spent hours -- lots of hours -- researching everything I could find on these respective LTE superphones. I went to...

    2nd Day Observations

    Now that I'm on day two and the initial wow factor has worn off (only just slightly though) here are some additional things I've observed: Good things: --The screen really is a thing of beauty. I've now sampled 720p rips I made of Cars 2, Captain America, Lord of the Rings, as well as...

    Man, this is a big phone

    Is no one else concerned by the size of this phone? At first, I thought that most of the extra screen size (versus 4.3 inch screens) would be absorbed by the bezel and that it would be not much bigger than my old phone, the droid x. However, based on its dimensions, this phone is noticeably...

    Root Unbricking finally possible!!! (with one caveat)

    You can finally unbrick your phone if you messed around with your rooted phone too much and something went wrong. WARNING: This will take you to the leaked software build (build number 5.5.1_84) that's been floating around the Web for over a week. It's a solid build that's far better than the...

    Unbricking finally possible!!!

    You can finally unbrick your phone if you somehow messed up the update OR if you simply messed around with your rooted phone too much and something went wrong. However, understand that this will take you to the leaked software (the update that was originally posted here), so there still may be...

    Leaked OTA: Thread Closed

    I’m surprised this has not been posted yet as it’s been out a few days already. Poster scottml over at xda pulled the OTA update (version 5.6.890) that was pushed for the soak test. It can be installed right over your current software as long as you are on stock or are rooted with...

    Can anyone tell me where I can get these super awesome icons?

    The folder icons in the pic are the best I've seen. I have looked everywhere for them and have had no luck. Does anyone know where I can find them? I have to have these even if I have to pay for them. Thanks in advance.

    Help Adw Launcher question

    I know that you can customize what apps you want on the dock bar but is there a way to change the appearance of the icon itself. For example, on launcherpro you can just long press on one of the dock icons to switch it AND change appearance. Is there a way to do is on adw? Thanks.

    Help Anybody else missing the NFL Mobile app?

    I just realized that I'm missing the NFL Mobile app. Wasn't the phone suppose to ship with the app preinstalled? Is anyone else missing the app as well or is it just me. Kind of sucks since you can't download it from the market. Edit--never mind. You can't download it from appbrain but you...

    Accessories Anyone use Beautiful Widgets or Weather and Toggle Widget on the X?

    One of these will likely be my first purchase from the app store. If anyone has any experience with these apps or have an opinion on which one they like more, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, any suggestions on similar customization apps (paid or free) would also be helpful. Thanks.

    Help Playing AVIs

    just got the droid x and am loving it so far. I was able to download blue ray rips from my computer that were in mp4 format into the gallery folder on my SD card. They played perfectly using the stock media player, even the 720p rip I had of Ironman. However, when I tried to copy an AVI file...

    Thankfully, not as nearly big as I feared

    I want as much screen real estate as I can get without the phone looking too cumbersome. The HTC incredible's overall size was nice but I felt the screen was a little too small. After reading so many impressions talking about the size of the droid x, I was beginning to think it might actually...
