The Moto G LTE is an awesome phone! I have been using it for a few months now and it is the best phone I have ever had. There is almost no ROM development however. I personally have not even had a reason to root it. There is no bloat to remove since it is not from Metro, it runs very reliably...

When I got my Moto G, I bought the SIMS card pack from Walmart for $10. My existing CDMA SIM card would not work and wasn't the right size anyway. That is the fastest and easiest way to get the right card IMO. Then you just call Metro to activate it (from neither the new phone nor the one being...

I received a system update today. I was hoping to see what anyone else experienced with it before I install it since I am not rooted so it is not easy to revert back. I am assuming it is to go to 4.4.4. Has anyone else installed it yet?

I got the incremental update a few days ago and now my battery is sucking dry insanely fast. I am talking about 1% every 2 minutes! GSAM is saying it is the screen, but I lowered the brightness to the absolute minimum and nothing changed. I just lost 2% writing this post!!!! Any ideas on what is...

I just picked one of these up due to the price drop to $99. With my Connect being such a POS, I wanted something to tide me over until the new breed of Metro phones come out in my area. Now with this I can hold off enough to probably reach the 2nd generation of GSM phones. Not that I expect...

Ever since I updated to 4.2, I am getting random reboots a few times a day. It has only happened a couple times during active use. I usually notice it because the recent apps list is empty. It is a little annoying, but not driving me crazy. Anyone else experiencing this?

I would imagine that it is going to be available at B&M stores like Best Buy, but I have not seen it announced anywhere. I am going to be buying some other computer stuff soon and would like to buy it all at once to get interest free financing for 18 months on all of it.

I am thinking about installing it today and am wondering if anyone has an opinion on what the optimal settings are for balancing between battery life and performance. On my old Optimus I ended up taking it off because it would cause it to hang with any worthwhile reduction of CPU speed. Thanks...

I downloaded the SwiftKey 3 Beta and so far it has not been draining my battery like crazy. It still shows up in the battery use list, but it is only at 2%. I like it a lot more than the Gingerbread one.

I just want to let everyone know that if they are having data problems this morning, it is probably not your phone that is the problem. It sounds like Metro is having data problems, at least in Florida. There is a thread on the Esteem forum. http://androidforums.com/lg-esteem/515504-no-4g.html

I have had the phone for two days now. The keyboards Swiftkey and FlexT9 have both been battery hogs when they are the active keyboard. They sometimes use up to 90% of the battery. Does anyone know why this could be happening and if there is anything that can be done to fix it?

I am thinking about getting one of these for my 10 y.o. daughter for Christmas. Does anyone have any experience with them and have an opinion? We have Android experience (Optimus M and a SGT 10.1) so we want to stay Android. We cannot go to the Kindle Fire for her because her older sister is...

I have been looking and cannot find the answer to my question. I am considering switching to Sprint and this phone is probably my favorite given the price for features. Since this phone does not have the ability to use a SD card, does that mean that all the apps must remain in the regular...

We bought the SGT last night for my wife. I had already done my homework on how to access networked locations. I have been successful using ES File Explorer to view the images and File Manager HD. I have even been able flip through them like the gallery with ES. It is a little slower than I...

Is anyone else experiencing data problems today? I am in SWFL and have had problems since this morning around 7:00. I have been intermittently able to get on the Internet through the browser, but mail is not being updated, Accuweather is not updating, and I got a message that the IP address was...
