    Glass Screen Protector for Edge

    Are there any of the glass screen protectors available for the 7 Edge yet, or is is just too new? Or does the curve make that problematic? I'm always debating if those really help protect against screen breaks or not, but tend to fall into the "better safe" category.

    New S7 Edge User; What do I Need to Know

    So my wife and I took advantage of the BOGO S7 Edge deal at AT&T today and are now the proud owners of shiny new S7 Edges. Other than figuring out how the whole "edge" think works, what else do I need to know? I read that the battery life is one of the strong suits, but so far I'm not seeing...

    G3 stuck on AT&T Logo at boot

    My wife's phone is stuck on the AT&T screen when booting. I am able to get into download mode, but am unsure of what to do next. I've downloaded the PC Suite and Mobile Support Tool (which seems to be more recent) from LG but in both cases when I do the update recovery I can't get it to work...

    Help HELP! McAfee thinks my phone is rooted? Am I Bricked?

    So I've been having a problem over the last couple of weeks where my phone (with AT&T) tells me my sim card is in valid. Usually a restart fixes is but it's been getting worse and worse. I tried getting a new sim but that didn't help. So when it happens today and I restart, it comes up to a...

    Help Invalid SIM Error

    Last couple of days my phone has sporadically been giving me an "invalid sim" error. Usually powering it down and back on will clear it for a while, but once I had to remove and reseat the sim card. Is this sounding like a hardware issue, or could it be something with the card?

    Crazy fast battery drain when using

    Recently my battery has been draining as an incredible rate when in use. I've got my screen brightness dialed down to 40%, and still it's just sucking juice like crazy. Can anyone suggest what might be going on here? Is there a way to test if my battery needs replaced?

    Help Battery Life

    I was having issues with my battery life so did a factory reset, which seemed to solve my issues. After the reset my phone would drain 8-10% overnight. Now it's back to draining 20%+ overnight, so I'm thinking it must be something that I've installed that's doing it. When I check GSam Battery...

    I had a usb cable in my car that would charge my phone while using gps navigation, even while playing audio over Bluetooth. That cable died, acc I've tried two since. With both of them my battery drains while using gps, but neither gives the "slow charge while attached to a computer" message...

    Help Facebook contacts not syncing

    I did a factory reset this weekend to resolve a battery issue (which seemed to work), but now my Facebook contacts aren't syncing to my phone. Now that I've got things set back up my Facebook contacts aren't syncing down to my phone. I can't say for sure it was working right up until when I...

    Help Why are "Android System" and "Kernel (Android OS)" eating my battery?

    Maybe it's my imagination, but it seems lately my phone has just been chewing through battery. I checked the GSAM Battery Monitor after letting it sit overnight and Android System and Kernel were the two biggest offenders. Anyone know why they're eating all my juice, and if there's anything I...

    Help Intermittent Error

    I keep getting the error "Sorry an error occurred. Please try again. If the error persists there may be an error with the file you’re trying to access." Pop up. It does it across applications, so I don't know what file it's trying to write or what is doing the writing. The only thing I can...

    .MOV Files to Youtube from phone

    I have a new camera that shoots video in .mov format, and can easily send stuff to my phone via NFC. Can anyone suggest a good way to get the videos directly from my phone to YouTube without putting them on a PC since Android doesn't recognize .mov videos?
