Yes, there is a menu selection, but a techie told me to hold in the volume and on buttons to get some Developer menu, then select some other way to restore the phone. I'm ready to erase and restore this S4 as if no one ever used it. How best to do ?

I have as new Galaxy S4. The seller offered to upgrade this S4 to the S5 for $230. Would it be better to spend $230 more and get the Galaxy S5 ? How is the S5 different from the S4 ? How is it better ? How is it not better, or worse ? Is the S5 worth $230 more than the S4 ?

This Galaxy S4 branded from T-mobile has many unwanted programs, but it was only $250. Downloaded RootAppDelete and it's more complex than before it was on the LG Motion, and I don't know what's safe to delete on this Galaxy S4. Particularly annoying are the Samsung Hub and Widgets. 1...

Don't know how this changed, but the group of icons on the home screen of my LG Motion is now a group three swipes away. So after it starts up, I must swipe three times to the right to get to the most used group of icons. How does one go back to the selection group three swipes away ?

Compared my LG Motion to my friend's Avant, and my Motion gets better reception in fringe areas. Has anyone else had this experience (another model gets better reception than the Avant).

Cannot find my other post. Sorry if this is a duplicate. Would like to get an extended battery for the Avant. Mugen does not make one.

Can a 4G LTE phone get just 4G speeds ? When throttled, is one still on a 4G network ? If using SpeedTest app, what down speed should one expect on 4G ? 4G LTE ?

This is strange. I take pictures with the LG Motion and they get saved to an external card. Scanning the internal memory on startup becomes quite lengthy, sometimes 10 minutes ! Examined the internal storage contents and found that TWO thumbnail files of 2.75 GB each form in the DCIM folder...

Happen to go to "Accounts & Sync" on this LG Motion and saw that Pho.to Lab is listed and actively synching. Why is this App in Accounts & Sync ? To where is it synching? Pho.to Lab is just an editing program and the app is "Internet based". SEE HERE...

My girlfriend's Acclaim just scared us. Very loud Amber Alert. How may we turn off the sound of the alert and still get the alert ? Second best = stop receiving these alerts. I was able to turn of the audio alert on the LG Motion, but not the Acclaim.

Read some threads here on improving battery life, and followed what could be understood. There's chatter about excessive bloatware, but could not find a list of apps which are safe to delete using Root App Del. 1. Which apps are safe to delete on this MetroPCS phone ? 2. What can be done...

On my LG Motion using few programs like "Clean Master", it found that 33 apps were consuming power, and then ran Battery Doctor and it found more problems. Which are your favorite programs for: 1. Battery conservation ? 2. Limiting unnecessary apps running in the background ? 3. Cleaning...

The recent iCloud security breach made some Android users worry. Are LG Motion cell phone pictures automatically sent to the "cloud" or Google plus ? Doesn't seem so. When I click on the Google Plus app it shows a license agreement. When I sign onto the G+ website, one has to set up getting...

On the LG Motion there's a program called Backup. It backs up all the text messages to the internal SD card. Cannot find backup for this Samsung 4G Exhibit. Someone please tell me how to do this. Thank you.

This will seem trivial, but "little things mean a lot". My GF has this phone and she is bothered by the HOME button vibrating if it's held down for longer than 0.5 seconds. I've gone through the menus and cannot find where this vibration is disabled. Anyone know ?

I was trying out a Samsung Exhibit on MetroPCS, and each and every plain text e-mail received from gmail accounts are "multimedia messages". How can this be stopped ? When sending to gmail account, each e-mail has an attached text file (.txt). How can that attachment be stopped ?

Is this a very new phone ? Are people rooting it so that posts are in a different forum ? Are members putting posts in the MetroPCS forum ? Do few people own an F6 ? MetroPCS said the F6 is excellent.

Can't seem to find an extended (greater than 3000 mAH) for the LG Optimus F6. Anyone have a link to the larger battery and back cover ?

Hi. I have an LG Motion on MetroPCS and it's been working fine, but the screen is damaged. To replace this Motion is $100, and the LG F6 is $200. Has anyone here tried both of these models ? If so please compare and contrast them so a decision can be made between these two models. The...

Just cracked the screen on my LG Motion. The phone still works. I'd like to back up EVERYTHING except photos. Data Pilot seems to back up only contacts. Then there's this: Helium (formerly Carbon Desktop) Free Download and Super Backup...

Last night my Motion made a loud unusual sound. It was an Amber Alert. After dismissing it, the flag asked if I wanted to receive them in the future. I tapped YES. The iPhone has a setting to block these messages. On this LG Motion, cannot find a system preference blocking this type of...

My LG Motion became warm, and the low battery warning area indicated that "Into Now" consumed over 50% of the battery power. I don't use this App. I tried stopping it from running by the STOP command in Apps, but when going back to the "Running" list, it still shows there. From where did...

Purchased two extended batteries (3500 mAh) for the LG Motion. After the usual a daily use the battery gauge emblem looks less than 25%, and when plugging in the USB charger, indeed it shows 23% charge. Are the emblems and % charge text correct ? Why didn't the extended battery...

Tried LG Motion 4g hotspot to tether my iPad and a friend's iPhone and it was miserably slow and timed out on either device.:confused: Each Apple device was registered on the Motion, and a valid IP was obtained. Has anyone had success with tethering ? Is tethering an extra monthly fee ?

INSTALLED & FOLLOWED DIRECTIONS: Joshua Wise's domain - HoRNDIS: USB tethering driver for Mac OS X BUT I still cannot get it to direct connect. Cannot get Wi-Fi direct to connect either. Has anyone been successful with either method ?
