    Root unrooting without factory reset

    I want to unroot my Verizon Galaxy S3 to get the Jelly Bean update but I don't want to factory reset. Is there a way to do this? I used clockworkmod to root. I tried checking "temporary unroot" and tried installing the OTA but it didn't work. Thanks!

    Home button not taking me to main screen

    Recently I have had an issue with the home screen button. When I press it, it takes me to the last page on the right instead of my main home page which is the middle page. Is anybody else having this issue? I have researched and researched and can't seem to find out why it's doing this.

    Should I or Shouldn't I????

    No After Market Batteries available yet!

    So after doing my research and ordering some batteries online I have found that the Photon uses a new battery that NO OTHER Motorola phone uses. The code on the battery is HF5X. Most places thought that the battery was going to be the same as the Atrix which I believe is a BH5X. I'm kind of...

    Got the My Photon! Where's the Hotspot?

    I got my Photon at a Sprint store. I didn't have them activate it because I wanted to play with it before I activated it on my line. I currently have the EVO3D and wanted to see if I liked it before I activated it on my line. I brought it home, connected it to my WIFI and started downloading...
