    Metro sure dropped this phone fast

    I guess we can forget about any software updates for it. Now I wish I would have spent the extra coin for the Sammy-S3, but after rebate, I only paid $159.00 thru wirefly.

    Help Freakin' Metro Easy WiFi blows

    This app is ruining my experience with my new LG Spirit. Am I the only one having issues with this POS app? Unfortunately, you cannot get rid of it like with the LG Motion. Is there a workaround, short of Rooting? I would Root, but I'm not familiar enough with the steps and I can't find a...

    Wirefly messed up my order!

    They sent it two day FedEx instead of standard shipping, so when I got home late last night, my new LG Spirit was sitting on my doorstep. Thankfully, I don't live in a hoodlum neighborhood and no one stole it as it sat out there all day. First impressions - this phone is much lighter and much...

    Time's running out for the Rebate...

    If you want to buy an LG Spirit, time is running short as it must be purchased by the 31st to be eligible for the Rebate. Looks like I'm going to pull the trigger and upgrade from the Motion.

    Advertised Screen Size misleading?

    I just measured the screen on my LG Motion and it is 3", not 3.5" unless you include the touch buttons below the screen or if you measure diagonally, like you would on an HDTV. This seems to be a bit misleading as I don't consider those control buttons to be part of the screen. Is this the...

    OK, I'm going to hold out until the end of the month to see if the Sammy S-3 price drops, but if not I'm going to upgrade from the LG Motion to the LG Spirit. I also plan to buy from Wirefly, but Wirefly states that they activate your phone once you sign for it. Here's the problem: I got the...
