As I've come form an S4, I'm not getting on with the LG alarm cloc. It's not that it doesn't work, it works fine! BUT! And it is a very serious but! I am in serious danger, in my half asleep stupor, if miss hitting snooze and turning my alarm off!!! It hasn't happened yet, but dam, it would...

So I've had my G$ since release day. Love it to bits, well, once I put nova launcher and swiftkey on anyway :P My query is this. I've come from using samsung phones, and i'm finding the double tap to unlock on the G4 a bit hit and miss. I had a look around for the G3 gesture settings that...

And another lollipop mystery. I've started getting the weather on my lock screen, I've looked everywhere again in my system settings and in beautiful widgets and can't see a lock screen weather anywhere. It only appears randomly after about 6 hours of the phone being reset. The worst part is...

Another problem I've found with updating to lollipop this morning. All my texts are coming through and displaying as "Message - New Message" rather than "Your Name - message preview" No names are showing at all, yet they are there in the message app which I've kept as stock. Any ideas?

I just updated to 5.0.1 and it's put my network provider in the notifications panel on my lock screen and I can't see how to turn it off. It's doing my nut in as I keep having to double check my phone as it looks like a notification!!! How do I remove it! Cheers :D

I've found a few threads about his but with nothing that I found to fix the issue. I'm using the google search (long hold on the menu key) and it will take a good 5-10 seconds before displaying results sometimes. Any ideas what is causing this? i've tried clearing my cache already :P

Anyone else had this pop up today? I've had it, tried to update and it's giving me an 'Update failed due to network issues'

I keep finding that when I'm typing landscape way, I keep catching the menu button. It's quite annoying! lol It's more of a problem in facebook as by the time the menu has popped up, I've hit one of the options, normally send error report! Any ideas? Or is it just a case of be careful?

As the title suggest, when I unplug my charger, it thinks it's still charging. I've removed the battery for a few minutes and replaced, sorts the problem untill the next charge. It's not a serious issue I know, but annoying non the less :P Anyone else had this and know how to fix it?!

I have a few email accounts, all are working fine except for my gmail account isn't pushing the new emails through to my phone. Have I missed something blatantly obvious here?

So I just upgraded from the s2 to the s4, I was actually sad to see the s2 go! It lasted me well :) Anyway, I know I can access the smileys on messages by hitting the menu button and getting to them that way, but back on the s2 it was nice to have them all either on the third page of symbols...

So I finally decided I was going to make the move to ICS and did a nice fresh new install of everything. One thing that is infuriating me though. i cannot get the keyboard, for the life of me, get it to recognise me typing "id" and turn it into "I'd" I've got it in the auto substitution and...

Right. Gosms has been getting on my nerves for months now, purely because when i use quick reply, there is a huge delay when i rotate the screen (i find it easier to type with the phone landscape) So, today I thought enough is enough and installed handcent. After a fair time tweaking various...

I'm trying to block marketing companies who keep calling me. I've added them to the blacklist but I think the black list is only for outgoing and not incoming as they have just tried again from the same number. Cheers :)

So yeah, as the title says, i'm getting bored of waiting for samsung to release ICS and from what I gather, touchwiz has pretty much made it the same as GB anyway! So! Couple of questions really. I really would like to flash CM9, but there isn't a 'stable' release out yet. How stable are the...
