    Way to delete messages without confirm?

    Using Verizon LG G2. Is there a way to delete Messages, using KitKat messaging app, without the extra step of confirming delete and answering yes. I have the confirmation turned off for Gmail deletes, but can't find a way to turn it off for messages. Thanks for the help.

    Sold my Iphone 5S for the G2

    I recently tried the HTC one, the Moto x and the LG G2. The G2 works for me as good or even better than the Iphone 5S. Battery life is great, the customization of Android is super and the larger display is very pleasing. I've had an S3 and a S4 before, so I was familiar with Android. The KitKat...

    Setting the Moto X up similar to the S4

    Got the Moto X today and here are a few of my observations re comparing it to the S4. 1. The ATT contact address book is very poor. I downloaded Contacts + which kind of emulates the S4 book, but not quite as nice, but still very good. 2. The Google calendar app on the Moto X doesn't give a...

    Speedy MotoMaker delivery!

    Looks like Motorola/Google management is paying big time attention to the manufacturing( and maybe everything else) on this phone. I ordered a 32Gb/Blue/white/silver on Thursday, 5 Sept. I got an email this morning to expect it on Tuesday, but when I opened the tracking info, FedEx says it will...

    Would have switched if Verizon had MotoMakr

    I have an S4 and really enjoy it after my Ip5. I was intrigued by the Moto X and even ordered a cheap micro to nano sim cutter so I could move the sim out of my S4 and try the MotoX without much hassle. I would have jumped already if Verizon had MotoMakr and 32 GB. I might have even settled for...

    Help HTC One Insurance/Warranty discussion

    Does anyone know what the warranty period is for the HTC One in the US? Most of the time it says "limited warranty". Is battery failure covered under the warranty? I am asking because of the known difficulty in opening up and repairing/replacing a component like the battery in the HTC One.

    Help Any "no sim" and/or sim card issues?

    The HTC Droid DNA on Verizon has and continues to have many "no sim" detection issues and I was wondering if the HTC One has had any yet. I don't quite understand if this is a Verizon specific issue with the DNA, or if it is a design issue from HTC. My problem is that it has continued for over 6...

    One touch dialing widgits

    The S3 has another nice feature for people who are not familiar with Android. I put widgits on my phone to allow me to just touch the widgit and dial a contact. I also put one on for voice mail, creating a contact that also has my pin#, so again, I have one touch. I put it on a page that is not...

    My Backup Pro

    I use My Backup Pro to backup my Verizon s3. The default setting backs up data to the internal memory. If you want to backup your data to your micro SD card, you have to enter the following string, under settings, Backup location, when you open My Backup Pro: The external sdcard path is...

    So long Iphone!!

    The S3 ( Verizon ) is so much better than the Iphone 4 I have. I don't need the 14 day return policy to figure out that I am going to keep the S3. The OS is just as fast and smooth as IOS. Jelly Bean in the near future will just be icing on the cake. The camera is better by a lot and the screen...

    Smart Stay Alternative

    The idea behind Smart Stay is good. The feature is intermittent at best. I had an app on my Droid X that I really liked and finally found it again. It is called Keep Screen. It is free and available in the Play Store. What it does, is keep an app open if you are using it. It bypasses the screen...
