    Help QuickMemo+ ?

    I did an export of the items I have saved in QuickMemo+, but I cannot find it. Is QuickMemo+ an LG app? I'm thinking it is so wanted to export it so I could save the data (text) into some other app if I ever get an non-LG phone. Any ideas? Thanks

    No MM Doze on Boost version, but...

    It appears the MM "Doze" feature was excluded from the Boost version of Marshmallow. However, I found this app via the "Drippler" app that does the same thing and you don't have to be rooted. Actually, it doesn't wait 30 minutes like the real Doze does to do it's thing...

    Samsung phone opinions?

    I see Boost just put out a new phone - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016): https://www.boostmobile.com/#!/shop/phones/samsung-galaxy-j3-2016/features/ I have never owned a Samsung phone. What are the pro / cons of Samsung phones? Do they load them up with a lot of bloatware that you cannot remove...

    Boost streaming usage?

    On Boost Mobile, streaming music through certain apps is not suppose to count towards data usage. Does anyone know when you check data usage on your phone for current cycle, does the music streaming data usage add to that number (and they somehow subtract that portion when deciding to throttle...

    Weird thing since updating to marshmallow...

    Boost version. Since my update, often in the morning when I tap an icon on my home screen, nothing happens. I can rapid-fire the icon - any icon and phone just sits there. It is not locked up, but also won't start an app. I have a PowerClean widget to "boost", memory cleaner, and it will do...

    Help Can't find lock screen disolve

    On Boost version. Yesterday I changed the way lock screen "disolves" into the home screen when you swipe it to "soda" effect. I would think this setting would be on the Lock Screen settings menu, but I cannot find it anywhere on my phone. It is like it disappeared. Anyone know steps to pull it...

    Help Marshmallow does and does not recognize SD card space

    I updated Boost version to android 6.0 from their push. I have a 32GB SanDisk SD card. Looking in "Storage" the phone recognizes that only "3.52 GB used of 29.71 GB". Hooking phone to PC via USB cable Windows also recognizes the same results. I was able to move a couple small apps to SD...

    Boost version of Marshmallow a jank version?

    Just updated last night. Boost version is missing some of the features of 6.0 that I have read about! The app drawer is supposed to scroll vertically - mine still horizontal. I'm guessing this is because Boost hi-jacks the launcher with their "Home" launcher? Would Google Now launcher make...

    Help Location Based WIFI?

    I have the Boost version. Does this phone have a setting for Location Based WIFI ? (Where it turns on your WIFI in certain areas and off in all others.) I cannot find it in settings. If not, is there a 3rd party app you like that does that? thanks

    Facebook, anyway to stop it from running in background?

    I am not rooted. I use Greenify app. When ever I hit the manual "Hibernate Now" widget, it always has to kill Facebook - regardless of whether I have started it. Apparently FB feels the need to rule supreme on my phone! I have all FB notifications turned off. So why does this incredibly...

    Help Battery life has really dropped - only 1 month old?!?

    I got my phone near the end of June. A charge was lasting almost 2 days. About a week ago while traveling and using GPS/Data/Navigation I let it drain to below 15%. Now it seems to be draining about twice the rate before that. Does draining the battery below %15 percent do something to it...
