    Root [MetroPCS & T-Mobile] Motochopper works

    Well I'll make the first post in here to confirm that Motochopper works on the Metro variant of this phone as well as the others. I rooted mine in about 30 seconds, fastest and smoothest device root I've done so far.

    F3 on MetroPCS

    Anyone have one on Metro yet? Seriously thinking about this phone but would like to see some real-world reports from other Metro users. Spec-wise it looks like a good GSM replacement for my Motion, only downside I can see is the lower internal storage. Hopefully that can be addressed by...

    Root Will Samsung update work with and/or kill root?

    I'm rooted on my P3113 with the stock ROM, wondering if the just-released JB update will work through Kies with the root, and if it does will it then un-do the root? Not in any hurry to update but would still like to know.

    Help Problem with HBOGo on Tab 2 7.0

    Just installed it today and having a problem where I can start a stream but it will only play for about 30 seconds, then stop and restart as audio-only. It's not my wifi network, the app works fine on my phone on the same wifi. I am rooted but otherwise stock, P3113UEBLG2 firmware.

    Root Problem disabling system apps

    Galaxy Tab 2 7", rooted w/stock ICS. I've disabled/frozen most of the built-in apps, using either the disable option in app settings or Titanium Pro. Most of them stay disabled, but a few are getting re-enabled at every restart. Specifically Google Play Books, Movies, and YouTube. It doesn't...

    Help Drops to 1x after network dropout

    I've been finding that after driving through a dead zone where the network is lost (either just data or all signal), when it comes back it will be at 1x even though there is 4G available. To get 4G back I have to cycle through airplane mode (I'm sure restarting the phone will do it too but...

    Root 1-click GPS

    This isn't actually Motion-specific, but thought it was worth posting here. If you're rooted, the latest update to Power Toggles lets you have 1-click GPS switching if you convert it to a system app. This is most easily done with Titanium Backup. No more multi-click and hitting "Agree" every time!

    Help Does QPST work on this phone?

    Tried it, drivers are installed and the phone shows up in the list but as an unknown phone type. When I select it and try to run service programming I get an "online connection error" and it doesn't connect.

    Help Can't do factory reset

    I'm trying to help a friend with their ZTE, it's been crashing and doing strange stuff so it would seem a full reset is in order. However I've tried to do it both from the system settings with the phone running, and the power-on recovery menu, and neither one actually resets the phone. When I...

    Help Problem with data after using WiFi

    I've been noticing that sometimes after using WiFi for a while then turning it off and going back to the mobile network, apps using data won't work although the data icon is present. I've gotten it to work again by putting the phone into airplane mode briefly, then turning airplane mode off...

    Battery life

    Getting really close to grabbing this phone as a successor to my year-and-a-half old OM. Wondering what those who have one are experiencing so far with battery life (preferably as a direct comparison to the OM if you had/have one), seeing as the M+ has basically the same size battery as the M...

    Been reading the forums here for a while, finally got around to signing up. Phone is one of the original Optimus M's, I got it the first week they were available back in 11/10.
