    In Memoriam - Our Pets

    I know many of us here are animal lovers, and while we have the annual "fatalities" threads, our pets are family and I thought it might be a good idea to post about our dear departed furriends. What prompted this is that we had to say goodbye to our dear Molly tonight (8/26). She'd been...

    It's Been Fun

    Hey, folks. My formerly-trusty F3 gave up the ghost recently after acting up for a short while. Best Buy had a clearance deal on the Moto G 3rd gen ($50) so I bailed on LG as well. I'll still be on the forum, but not really in here. ;) Best of luck to you all.

    Sudden charging/capacity problems

    Hi, folks. Didn't see much about this anywhere. My F3 is not quite two years old. Battery was fairly low last night, put it on to charge as usual, grabbed it on the way out the door this morning. Looked at it on the train and it was half discharged, so I was thinking maybe I didn't actually...

    Lucky with water recovery

    The GF made us late leaving for church yesterday and it was raining cats and dogs. Getting out of the car and (trying to) transfer the F3 from the car's interior to my pocket I dropped it in a poodle (ha, ha, the old joke). It was completely immersed for roughly five seconds. I keep it in a...

    Wish me luck...

    I'm on hold trying another tactic with VM to see if they can simply restore all of my voicemail as of a date certain so I can try and get back the last message my mom left me before she passed away. I lost it when the phone reset after updating SuperSU and it broke my heart (again). Sorry if...

    Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] Yes, fotakill does work, but you have to do it right

    Hi, folks. This is being posted in the all things root forum because if you're not rooted, you don't care, you'll just get the updates and keep on truckin.' However, if you are rooted and the phone is working fine, this is how you can stop the FOTA notices on your phone. This is my own...

    Root CWM restore issue

    So the SuperSU binary update ended up resetting my F3. I'm trying to restore a backup from CWM I took right when I had it set up the way I wanted. Unfortunately, CWM says "couldn't open directory. No files found." This is the result I get where I choose restore from external sd or advanced...

    Root Ginormous SUCK after SuperSU update

    Ouch. I had my phone running just how I wanted it and applied a few app updates earlier today. Later, SuperSU said it had an update, so I clicked on it. It noted I had CWM and recommended I use that, so I did. It seemed fine...but it reset the phone! Everything I'd worked on, all my contacts...

    New F3 on the way...tell me where I'm wrong with my plan, please

    So I've been contemplating it for a while and pulled the trigger as I got a great deal on a new F3 for VM to replace my aged Optimus V. I know it's not the latest and greatest, but it is more than I need anyway. (Truth to tell, the Optimus V probably is, too, but it has a few aggravations and...

    Anyone using EasyTether (Mobile Stream) with F3 on Virgin?

    Hi, folks. I'm a noob on this forum, but not forums generally, and I didn't find anything definitive when searching. My current droid phone is a (rooted/otherwise stock ROM) LG Optimus V which I sometimes use with a cable tether to my Windows notebook via Mobile Stream's "EasyTether."...
