Can anyone point me in the direction of a reliable yet obviously legitimate unlock service? I didn't make the 90 day marker for Metro due to their lousy service, so now my T-Mobile SIM is being rejected of course. I see some services in ebay ranging from $3.00 all the way to $1000, but maybe...

I have a Kyocera Hydro Icon C6730. I've been to a few unlock sites trying to unlock this thing. It's a great phone (got update that fixes Google App crashes I guess?) Only problem is that it's a Boost Mobile phone, and I know how awful asking Sprint is with unlocking devices. Few sites I've...

^ As the title says. Please tell me there is some way to fix this. The Stylo screen is far too sensitive for my liking, and I'd prefer it if there was a way to eliminate double tap altogether. Screen touch sensitivity, if it could be adjusted somehow would be equally good. I don't care if the...

So I finally decided... Flashed a cut of Marshmallow PV2 to my Nexus 5. Had to do it, the Lollipop crap was getting kinda old, and I will admit, absolutely hated the experience. I credit CM12 for making it better, but then that was shattered with 12.1, again making it as sloppy as 5.0 when it...

So yeah....I upgraded to 5.1 (CM12.1, to be exact) and now I have a default notification tone chiming every time my network drops out, comes back, or switches between 3G, 4G, LTE, whichever. It is seriously annoying; I never enabled any kind of notification like that setting this thing up. I...

Hey all - a family member recently went to Metro to activate a VZW GS3 on the network. I had mentioned it's probably not gonna work, but he went in and asked anyway. Rep said absolutely no problem, somehow provisioned it, shoved a SIM into the LTE slot and sent him on his way. The rep said LTE...

Hey all - I'm trying to .TGZ the Google factory L image, and I keep getting the same "failed to flash (hammerhead- blahblahblahLRX21.thisphonesux.img) - not enough space" while running the flash-all script. Anybody know WTH is going on with this thing? Before you reply - 1. Yes, I've done...

You can still own that dream car, just buy it used in a few years. I've always wanted one of those massive 97 Dodge Ram pickups, and just bought one for $500 a week ago. I rule! On a side note, I'd never buy a new car. Seems the area I live in well stocked with meatheads who don't know how to...

I guess another way of asking: Is it possible to reassign or swap SD positions on the N5? I guess its possible to do this with some devices, so apps and related data are stored in the onboard SD, and boot/system are on external microSD? And for those who ask: I'm just curious, and also...

Can somebody help me with pushing SU file to the internal storage of my Nexus? I unlocked bootloader and flashed TWRP 2.7.0.0 The phone erased, as said but now it refuses to boot. I can still communicate with fastboot and access recovery. I forgot to throw the SU file on the phone before I...

Hey all - Can the Nexus 5 be registered on two different networks simultaneously? Currently I have my N5 running on a Ting Mobile data-only plan on the CDMA end of it. Now I want to transfer my MetroPCS service to it, so..... Can I still keep my account with Ting, keeping my ESN and UICC card...

Hey all - Here's the situation. I have been wanting to buy a Nexus phone for quite some time now. I almost bought the N4, but after a quick look around I saw some unfavorable issues affecting the devices, and being an LG(!), I figured I'd wait for the N5 and see how that does, looked to be...

Anybody having problems with GPS taking forever to lock, even with it being toggled on all day? When I use maps it sometimes takes 3-5+ minutes for the GPS to lock and navigation to start, and if I drive under a tree it loses connection. Maybe it's just me LOL...

Is there ANY way to manually enter recovery on this tablet without having to boot it up first? I'm permanently stuck on a boot screen! Maybe a button combo from power off? Is there a flash tool I can use, or maybe force into recovery through ADB somehow? Thanks, Spec

Hey all - I have an EMatic EGL26BL (Genesis? EGlide?) tablet that, I have unfortunately bricked. I have been looking around online for any info on these stupid tablets, but nothing really useful comes up, and I am confused on just what this tablet is built on. From what I have found, it...
