I got a notification for a system update today, anyone know what it involves and if it is safe or worth updating?

I could be wrong, but I received an update for the connection optimizer recently and I think it is accessing location in a new way or more frequently, and thus using more battery life. After the update, I noticed that whenever I woke my screen, the gps icon would be in the status bar and that my...

I thought this might interest some of you guys, since I have been a little unhappy with the messaging app on this phone. Nothing crazy, I just don't like the way it does pop-up notifications. This dev is working on a new sms app that looks very promising: [Dev] Hi there! Have you met QKSMS? ...

I don't have a chromecast, but I am definitely thinking about getting one. Would love to know how well this works with our phone. [EXPERIMENTAL] Enable Mirroring from any device - XDA Forum

Hi Guys, I have an LG Volt and from what I understand the quick remote app that comes with your phone does a lot more than the quick remote app that comes with my phone. I was wondering if someone could give me the apk so I could see if it runs on the volt. Thanks!

The Quick Remote app is ok, but I would love something that can also control my receiver. From the research I've done it sounds like this may not be possible (LG may lock down the ir sensor), but has anyone found a third party ir remote that works with our phone?

Was able to successfully install the Google L keyboard on the volt using these instructions: [APP] GOOGLE KEYBOARD FROM ANDROiD L (5.0) *WORKiNG* - Post #42 - XDA

The biggest thing I am still getting used to with this phone is its size, which isn't even that big compared to most modern phones. However my previous phone was only 4 inches, so it is still a pretty big change. Luckily, I haven't decent-sized hands, I imagine most women have trouble using this...

I really want something like the incipio case I used to have for my F3. It was a soft case with a rubbery feel. I just got a tpu case for the volt, and it is ok, but has a harder plastic feel to it that I like less.

Is anyone else seeing this weird update in the google play store for something called "TouchTest1.0". It says the developer is test account234234 and the description says "test apk". very weird. Anyone have any idea what this is?

Got a text today from Virgin Mobile saying: "Your Visual Voicemail account is being upgraded. Please call in to voicemail to record your new greeting and reset your passcode." Anyone else get this or have any idea what it means?

Just wanted to brag a little because I've been getting awesome battery life since I updated my phone. It's probably mostly just having a freshly installed rom, but either way I'm happy with the results: http://i.imgur.com/mnPTutu.jpg 63 hours to 15%.

Occasionally I've noticed that pressing the power button on my phone won't bring up the phone options power menu. Rebooting the phone with an app seems to fix it, but I was curious if anyone else has experienced this problem or knows how to fix it? Thanks.

Do these do anything? Should I turn them off or leave them on?
