    Last night I pulled the pictures and videos off of my phone over to my PC. But when I went to view them some of them were upside down. Not everything was upside down but about half of them were. I saw in one of the previous threads where it was suggested that you need to click on "import"...

    Dolphin browser stopped working

    I've never had a problem with the Dolphin browser until a couple of days ago. It would show the websites you're looking for but when you try and click on a link, the screen would just be a blank Dolphin screen. Refresh was not working either. Has anyone else ran into this problem? I've...

    Are 4.3 update problems only on Samsung phones?

    I've been wondering if other manufacturers are having problems with updates or is this a Samsung issue only? In other words is this 4.3 update an update to Android in general regardless of the manufacturer, LG, Motorola, HTC, etc.? The reason I'm asking is that when I get ready for another...

    Help What is Google Services and why is it using 50% of my battery?

    Everytime I check my battery stats Google Services is by far the biggest user. It's always around 50%. I also don't know if that is why it takes a long time to charge the battery at night. Last night from 70% it took over three hours to charge.

    Help Can't override default alarms?

    It seems like the newer generations of phones have alarms and notification sounds that have gotten much quieter over the years. This new S3 didn't come with anything that can wake me up in the morning. Chimes and gentle melodies just won't cut it. I did find some alarms on the Verizon store...

    1st time smartphone user

    Hello everyone. I just bought my first smartphone. It's a Droid X2. I'm glad I found this forum because the manual that came with it is very vague on a lot of things and I couldn't get registered over at the Verizon forums. I'm sure I will have a lot of what will seem like stupid questions to...
