    Does MPCS Run on Full T-Mobile Network?

    So I've gotten conflicting information on this one. Do MetroPCS customers with GSM phones have access to T-Mobile's full network? I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S3 GSM 4G LTE phone running on Metro's $40 basic plan, and I don't get good reception, and my 4G comes & goes a lot, so the internet is very...

    How to block data?

    Best Replacement Battery?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a good replacement battery for the LG Motion? Mine is only lasting a 1/2 day, when it always used to last more than a full day, as I don't use it a ton.

    LG Motion Case

    Any recommendations on a good case for the LG Motion? I'm retiring my Optimus M today and getting the Motion, but wanted to protect it. I've had a Otter Box knockoff case on it for the two years I've had it, which has protected it very well. I wouldn't mind something similar, or maybe a little...

    Help New SD Card Won't Mount?

    Any suggestions on how to get my Optimus M to recognize my new 16 GB SD card? I know the card is good, as I can put it in an adapter and access it from my laptop, but my M won't recognize it for some reason. It will still recognize my 8 GB one though. I read that you have to format it, so I...

    Does anyone else have issues with their GPS on their Optimus M? Mine worked fine when I first got it, but recently it takes forever to access the signal, if it does at all.
