    Kindle Fire HD 8.9" - Question

    So - other than the original Kindle Fire, I've never owned a tablet. Got my tax refund in and actually went to look at tablets earlier this week, but I have the Note II phone, and all the Android tablets seemed a bit redundant to me. In fact, I've had several sales folks at different stores even...

    It's Finally MINE!

    Just made the final bill payment to Verizon today for my Note II. My "precious" is finally truly MINE! Absolutely LOVE this phone. Best Android phone I've owned. Don't know if I'll updgrade to the Note III if it's truly going to be 6+ inches as rumored. While 5.5" seems "normal" to me now, I...

    Question about Network Mode

    My phone is defaulted to Global. Would I save some battery by changing to CDMA/LTE/EVDO instead? Or does it not really matter? Is there any benefit to keeping it set to Global?

    Is there a way to remove FB contacts from my contacts list? I have a hobby business (breed ball pythons) and I have over 3K people on my friends list (even though I also have a Page). It's annoying that all these folks' are now in my phone contacts. :(

    Help Not Receiving Texts

    Hi all! I've just found out that I'm not receiving texts. I can send them and the other party receives them, but none are incoming. I'm using GoSMS, but I've tried opening Handcent and the stock messaging, and I can see all my sents, but no receives (other than those that were received prior...

    Help Phone Dials in Speaker

    I am flummoxed at this point. My phone dials in speaker phone. I can of course simply press the onscreen button to turn off the speaker phone while it's dialing. In the past when I've had this, I have found that my Car Panel had somehow been turned on. Not this time. I've re-booted my...

    Help Atlanta Area - 4G

    Any of you in Atlanta finding that you're not staying on 4G? Just this past week, I've noticed that my phone keeps swithcing to 1X, so I've been using Phone Info to switch to 3G only. I mainly was using 4G when I was out and about because I stay on wireless at home and at work. Waiting for...

    USB Charging Question

    I will charge my phone at work using the USB cable connected to my computer. Each time that I plug it in, it prompts me to install drivers, download HTC software and launches a Verizon page. When I was using the Incredible, there was something that could be keyed into the phone that prevented...

    Seidio Active X Case Question

    Have any of you ordered this case in the red color? If so - would you describe the color as accurate to the website? I'm asking this, because I was expecting a rich red colored skeleton, but what I received was a smokey mauve color instead. More plum colors, and no rich reds. When I...

    Help Disabling Message when charging with USB

    I've tried searching, but apparently don't know the right search criteria to find what I'm looking for. I've seen it posted how to disable the Verizon pop up when you just want to charge from your USB, and I did it initially, but then I did a factory re-set and it's popping back up. Does...

    Help Instant Message Notifications

    Hi! I did a factory re-set on my phone, and I use Handcent as my preferred IM application. Previously, I had "turned off" the notification sounds from the stock HTC messaging app, but now I cannot remember where I did that. I have gone to settings, but I cannot find how to turn it off for the...

    Help Adding a Single Contact to a Page

    I had done this before, after reading directions on a post a few weeks ago, but sadly, I didn't favorite the thread. I don't want to add the Favorite's tool aka People Widget. I want to add a single contact to one of the pages. I had my boyfriend on one, but I wanted to move it to...

    Incredibly New

    Sorry - couldn't help myself with the pun! LOL But the Incredible will be my first Smartphone and I would love to be able to get my e-mails on my phone. Does anyone know if you can do it with an e-mail account that's tied to a website hosted on 1and1? My ball python business website is hosted...
