    Help S4 Camera Foucus Issue

    The camera on my insurance-replacement S4 really doesn't like to focus. Has anyone had this problem? It won't auto-focus worth a darn and even when I touch a high-contrast area on the image like the edge of a TV against a white background it will not focus. Very irritating as the camera's...

    AT & T Kitkat Update Features?

    OK. SO I did the OTA update. At first the phone threw fits, didn't work, got blazing hot, etc. Not good. Pulled the battery a few times and now it seems to have stabilized. Poking around, I really don't see anything of interest. Is that because Samsung and AT & T hid it all with their bloat...

    Help Car Audio Pairing Question

    Can someone with an N4 do me a HUGE favor and confirm something for me? I bought a Samsung Galaxy S3 to while the time away until the N4 comes back into stock. The S3 is actually quite a nice phone (especially since I only paid a dollar for it) but I've run into a real deal-breaker problem with...

    Root [AT&T] CM10 BT Audio Bass Output

    Noted that the CM10 12-09 nightly still has the Bluetooth issue streaming audio (no bass). This is why I reverted to stock after trying the 11-13 version so evidently it's not fixed yet. Anyone know if this is on CM's radar? I also noted that my Quadrant score (just picked this one...

    S3, Jelly Bean, Bluetooth, and Google Now

    I noticed a problem using Google Now (GN) after the Jelly Bean update last week: GN's voice recognition wouldn't initialize. At the time it was driving me nuts cause it seemed to work sometimes and other times not. It made no difference whether the head unit was set to BT input, radio, or...

    Root [AT&T] Should I, Can I, Revert to Bone Stock?

    AT&T's push of JB today did nnot go OTA to my rooted (stock ROM) phone. Kies said it had a Firmware update but repeatedly failed (someone here told me it was due to being rooted) has me questioning whether I should try to just completely revert the phone back to bone stock. I rooted it to play...

    GSAM Monitor Warning!

    FYI... I just updated GSAM resulting in a hung app (SG3 - stock, rooted). There are a couple of comments in the Play store already about it causing what sounds like boot looping so, assuming you don't allow it to auto-update, DON'T UPDATE until they fix it.

    Is there anyway to modify the default buzz? It last almost two seconds and is becoming annoying.

    Root [AT&T] CWM Help

    I've successfully rooted my GS3 and have installed CWM via Odin. Downloaded d2att (Nov-13 build date) and gapps zip's and moved them to the phone. When I try to flash CM10, CWM says: "E: can't mount /sdcard/" and fails there. I restored my backup and all is well so no bricking (actually...

    Root [AT&T] CM10 Haptic Feedback

    Planning to flash CM10 tonight. None of the reviews I read or watched mentioned Haptic Feedback. Does anyone know for sure if it's supported?

    AT & T Rollout Date?

    Thinking about rooting my S3 when it arrives but may hold-off if JB's just around the corner. Anyone heard any rumors?

    S3 for a DOLLAR!

    It generally known that Sam's Club is selling them for $0.97 on Friday. I called AT&T just now and they matched it. Woohoo! Now I don't have to get up early Friday! This is a stopgap phone for me as I await the Nexus 4 debacle to sort itself out. I plan to sell it once Google gets the 4's back...

    Root No Recovery Boot Issue

    I've rooted my N7. Out of curiosity, I went into bootloader mode and toggled over to Recovery. When I do, the poor little Android Guy is laying on his back with a red triangle. What does this mean? I'm concerned I may have screwed something up.

    N4 Available Tomorrow at T-Mobile - but there's a catch

    ...if you want an unlocked one you have to pay $499??? I'm sure it's a total coincidence that they sell out all their stock today and tomorrow you can have the same unlocked phone from TM for $150 more. That seems pretty Evil to me. I might just have to step back and give my newfound love...

    Root N7 USB Not WOrking. Ideas?

    OK. Time for today's dumb question... I got my OTG dongle today. I'm rooted. Stick a known good flash drive on and I get... ...nothing. Both File Manager HD and ES File Explorer don't show it. The tab doesn't, like, 'do' anything when I plug it in (I mean as in there's no sign it...

    Root OK I rooted...Now What?

    I'm kidding about the 'Now What'. I rooted my N7 today specifically to try out Titanium Backup hoping to get it to provide an iOS-like restore capability. I am a bit overwhelmed though by all the options and settings. The real mission was to figure out the rooting thing in preparation for my...

    Help Nexus 7 Power-On Issue

    My 7 had a strange power-on issue and I'd like to poll the group to see if it's abnormal. I power it completely off. Then, to power it back on, I simply push the power button. Done. It should then boot-up. Right? Well, mine wouldn't. Dead. I can eventually get it to come back up but only...

    Help Nexus 7 Notification Bar

    So, I bought the subject phone and am having trouble seeing the text on the Notification bar (old eyes I guess). I'm also a neophyt Androidist. Question: Is there an app out there that would allow me to edit it to make it a bit bigger? I have Notifaction Toggle which is nice but doesn't seem...

    External Storage?

    I just bought a 16GB Nexus 7 and after searching here learned of OTG cables that allow one to convert from MicroUSB to USB for plugging-in flash drives and the like. I hate the idea of using, and having to carry-around some cludgy dongle like that. Does anyone know of a flash drive that has a...

    Help iPhone to S3 (Android) Sync Question

    I'm looking for a How-To describing how this is accompished on the S3. I'm a reforming iPhone junky. If I wipe my iPhone (or get a replacement), I simply logged-into it (or the new one) with my iTunes account and 10 minutes to an hour later it's like nothing ever happened. How is this done...

    Help iPhone 4S to S3

    OK. I'm about to return the S3... I have a Mac running 10.8.x and there does not appear to be any way at all to do a one-time transfer of media (photos, tunes) from my iPhone to the S3 or regular sync's. I have searched here and downloaded and run Easy Phone Sync, iSyncr, and Kies. None of...

    Thinking about moving to Droid from Apple. I was severely under-impressed with the iPhone 5.
