I'll be visiting family in Scotland for 3 weeks and leaving on Saturday. Lots of things have changed since the last time I was there and a cellphone would be handy there! Does anybody know if a simple SIM card swap would work there with a verizon phone?

Dog ate my charger cord tonight. Anybody know where I can get one just like it? I liked how the phone's end was so secure.

After seeing b&N's update I can't keep it and support a company willing to close off the biggest reason why I wanted it. It's a shame too :-(

With the success and popularity of the original xoom and how close we are to having the xoom 2 released here in the states, where is everybody? lol I dunno about you guys but I'm looking forward to the media edition coming out so I can compare it with the SGT 7 plus. The smaller xoom 2 has me...

I didn't like friendstream so I got rid of it and started using the Facebook widget and tweetcaster widget where it used to be. Tweetcaster is working ok but the Facebook widget seems to be stuck on "refreshing statuses." Anybody know what might be happening? Edit: soft reset and it seems to be...

Seriously trying to figure out if the Galaxy is worth the extra $200. I'm being swayed towards the Fire is simple: I'm already a Prime member because the amount of ordering I do on Amazon every year makes the free shipping and streaming to my HTPC more than worth the annual cost. So with that...

I just picked up my Rezound last night and its still naked. I dont think i've seen this in here yet like I do in other phone forums. So what's everybody's essential apps for their Rezound?

I got myself a Vigor and I wanted her to get away from Sprint so I told her to pick out a phone. At this point i didn't even care if it was the iphone but thank god I was able to keep her away from that god awful Rhyme. Not that its a completely bad phone but the idea of a non-removable battery...

Hey guys I gotta get my gf a new phone tomorrow and I was thinking of one of these. Are there any major issues with them? How's the call quality? Battery life? She's not a phone geek and will be using the phone as is out of the box. Thanks for any help!

So I rooted and turned the majority of the stock apps to bak and according to ATK the most available free memory I can get out of it is 93MB. Any reason for this? I rooted yesterday morning and got rid of the all the VZW apps and the phone "seems" to react faster and it hasnt heated up on me...

I have a quick question for you guys. I'm just wondering if I could still use my phone for wifi use like browsing, downloading, etc, once I pick up my new phone and my X is no longer on the network? I want to keep my X for rooting and having some fun with it.

I was seriously debating on waiting on the bionic to come out before making a decision on either waiting on the vigor or going ahead and getting a thunderbolt or bionic. My contract is up with verizon and my gf's contract is FINALLY up with sprint and I need to get her away from that carrier as...

I finally sync'd my itunes but I can't get all of the files to play in cubed or the default player. They aren't even showing up in the players although they are in the folder on the sd card. Is there a patch or something I can do to get cubed to recognize them? Its almost half my music. Needless...

Everytime I open up the yahoo messenger app it literally makes my DX burning hot, drains the hell out of my battery, and it slows to a crawl. Shutting down the app only seems to help if it hasn't been open for very long and I normally have to do a complete phone restart to get it back to normal...

It keeps saying that it requires a SD card to work but I have the stock card in there. Anybody have any ideas? Running LPP on 2.2 if that helps
