I ordered this phone last fall from Straight Talk, just because it looked good on paper. I still use it because it works great in real life. I installed Apex Launcher and about two hundred apps, switched to ART runtime, which ate a chunk of drive space, and have not had to move any apps to SD. I...

China's Huawei Technologies Ltd, the world's No.2 telecommunications equipment maker, reported its fastest profit growth in four years as expansion in enterprise and consumer revenue far exceeded growth in its network building division.

All of a sudden, dust crept in under the lens of my Ascend 2. It's ignorable until I'm outside or someplace bright. Can it be blown out, and if not, how the heck do I get in there? I see three little screws out back, but I doubt that it's that easy.

Anyone got one of these already? Watcha think? I

My Sprint Optimus had a PRL update tap, like all other phones. It updated almost every time I tapped it. But now, it just occurred to me that it

My dopey Ascend 2 is always showing that it's syncing. If I turn 3G off or go into airplane mode, it stops of course, but then comes right back when I return. I've tried the usual stuff like deleting calendar settings. This happened last year; uninstalling MyYahoo cured it. That's still gone...

Erase Internal User Storage is an option in the Storage Settings of my Ascend 2, running 2.3.6. It showed about 12 of 18 megs still available. Out of curiosity, not able to think of anything vital that would be there, I erased it and restarted. I hoped to see a miraculous increase in storage...

New Ascend ll, ported number from Sprint. Setting up voicemail, it demanded a password so I gave it one. But in all the subsequent options, I didn

The first of ninety-six questions about the Nexus I just got... I was led to believe that the built-in 32GB storage took the place of and did the same job as the SD card in my Optimus. But when I plug it into my PC, it forces me to make a choice: connect as Media device (MTP) or as Camera...

I got my eensy Optimus S a little over two years ago. Familiar with PCs and almost-smart phones, the Optimus was my first dip in Android waters. It taught me a lot and its last lesson was to trade up to a Galaxy Nexus for just about nuthin. I suspect I

Again, sorry to intrude with a question that

Considering trading my eensy Optimus for a Sprint Galaxy Nexus, since they’re offering it for nothing but another two years. But I notice that the Samsung page says “Internal Memory 32GB,” and no mention of an SD card. Is that built-in 32GB just doing the same job as an SD...

Posting here in case this is Optimus specific... When I get a call that isn

I downgraded my Optimus S to Froyo, long irrelevant story. Then I shot a video and its format is the impossible 3gp format, which looks fine on the phone but unreadable on stuff like Win Media Player. I

I depended on Total Call Control to press the volume-up button to answer the phone and volume-down to send it to voicemail. Then, Gingerbread comes out and that doesn’t work anymore. Also tried EZbutton to no avail. Anyone know of an answering method that works with Opti S/GB and avoids...

Just checking with other opti s-ers to see if you keep finding your audio muted at random times since the 2.3.3 update... anyone?

Trying to see how much an Opti can hold. According to Appbrain, I have: Apps: 86 total Total Size: 73MB With most of the apps, I try to choose the one with the smallest footprint. If I install the Maps updates, it goes over the line, so I know I must be close. What are other

I have 2.3.3 ZVH but for two reasons, I’m considering going back to 2.2.2; First, a couple apps that worked fine with Froyo don’t work at all with Gingerbread. Second, I just might want to root after all this time. According to RazzMaTazz, I have to jump through some hoops to do...

From all I can tell, only five people or so have gotten the latest Gingerbread, the one that

I froze my opti at 2.2.2, during the initial Gingerbread debacle. Long story, but now I

LG Optimus Vu official: Galaxy Note gets competition LG has officially revealed its new 5-inch LG Optimus Vu smartphone/tablet hybrid, challenging Samsung

I’ve tried battery saver apps, still use Juice Defender, but one thing seems universal: if I just keep the phone in my pocket, the battery lasts a very long time. But if I use it for anything -- calls, web, even playing solitaire, the battery can die in a few hours. So, surrendering to...

Never mind, it suddenly behaves.

This and other Optimus forums used to be beehives of activity. Even more so when Gingerbread was released. But, sadly, even more when the complaints started coming in. Now it
