    Nougat on VM tonight!

    I looked around and didn't see anything... I hope I didn't miss a thread. I was away from my phone for a bit tonight, and when I came back I noticed that some of the LG apps had updated. I figured I'd just try a manual update check... and got Nougat! After: Soooo... woo-hoo?

    Root Stock Recovery?

    Could someone post, or direct me to a link to, a working stock recovery for the VM Tribute? I'm having a hell of a time getting the ZV6 update to install. It's so bad that I actually ordered the Tribute 2 from VM's website, which should arrive tomorrow. But I'd like to return my existing...

    VM Text: $35 plan now unlimited talk?

    Anyone else just get this text from VM? Between the iPhone coming back, 2 local Walmarts putting up big VM displays (with all the phones no longer available on the website) and now this, it's good to see signs of life from VM!

    Two Dumb VM Questions

    Hi All! Two simple questions about VM: 1) Can you still buy phones online using your account balance? (I've heard that the option to use your account won't be available on the VM website unless have enough funds in your account to buy the phone). Also, how do they ship: UPS Ground, FedEx...

    Root DUMB QUESTION: CM7 support from other companies

    THE SHORT VERSION: My Triumph is running the 2013-03-03 build of MTDEV-CM7. Are third-party software vendors (in this case, Instagram) "cool" with supporting CM7 phones? Or, if I email them, will they just tell me to get lost? THE LONG VERSION: Every version of Instagram after 3.42 crashes my...

    Help Why won't Skype work?

    Hi all! I'm a long-time IT guy who is new to Android (just got a VM Intercept for Christmas). I'm having an issue with Skype: I can log in and see all my contacts, but when I click on one to call them, I instantly get a "call ended" screen. If I try to call again, I get a message that says...
