I have a quick question regarding bloatware. I disabled a bunch of stuff I didn't want running and I used Debloater with my PC to do so. I'm thinking about updating to Marshmallow but am curious if that will force all my disabled / hidden apps to become unhidden and enabled. Thanks

I'm not new to rooting or installing custom ROMs or anything like that. Matter of fact I build computers for a hobby all my life so installing operating systems isn't alien to me. However, there's still a lot of things I could learn or get better at when it comes to the guts of phones. I'm...

First of all I don't understand why or how they release an update without testing it on their own devices first. Lollipop is already nothing but issues. If I lock my phone, I usually hit the home button or the power button to unlock it but when I hit either nothing happens. It then locks up and...

Just received mine today as OMG, what a AWESOME case. I never had a case this secure before. On sale for $25, and worth every single penny...

I'm coming from the S3 where to shoot video, you first need to slide the slider to video. The S4 is just a button which I'm not too fond of. Is there anyway to make it so to access video mode you need to slide something instead of just pressing the button?

Long story short, I bought a Hot Dog Truck. I currently have an S3 with MetroPCS. However, at the spot the truck is at is a major dead spot for me. My service goes in and out, and data is useless making my days quite long with nothing to do internet wise on my phone. I ported my number to AT&T...

My Uncle bought an S5, and he's having an issue. We'll, I'm having the issue because I'm the one doing it for him. I own a S3 and so this is odd to me. I have the USB drivers installed, and I can access the internal no problem. I'm still waiting on his micro sd to come. Anyway, I go into...

Well, I finally convinced Mom to give up the bar phone, and venture into the world of smartphone. No more 222 for C, 22 for B, 333 for F, etc. Now she doesn't have to go back and forth from her sent folder to inbox to reread a conversation. Now everything will be on one page. She's excited for...

It says bug fixes but haven't done it yet because I figured I would wait until people were discussing it here but it still yet has been mentioned so just curious if anyone has done it.

Hey guys, As of this morning, upon trying to dial any number, you get the S3 call ended beep along with the call ended screen. I investigated the issue deeply, and it's 100% a Metro issue with the S3 & S4 on the GSM network. There's no need to factory reset or do anything crazy to your phone...

Well, my S3 cost me $444.22 through MetroPCS. You don't get the phone for free or at a discounted price like you do with other carriers because there's no contracts with MetroPCS so you pay full price for the phones. The current promotion is So, I paid the $399.99 + overnight shipping + NY tax...

It seems sometimes when I press home, it acts as if I held it down, and it opens the task manager instead of taking me to the home screen. I thought it was a user error but it's doing it more often.

Sometimes when I lock my screen, I get a red LED blinking very very fast, and it won't stop until I unlock. I have no unread texts, emails or missed calls. No facebook messages or anything. No AIM messages. It did it last night when I was in basement but I thought it meant no signal but now...

Whenever I send a text message, my Google+/Youtube profile pic shows up to the right. I looked everywhere and I can't find how to unlink Google+ on my phone or find to not display the pic. If I disable the Google+ account, it will mess with YT so I can't, and I don't want to turn off the app...

I'm part of the Kawasaki NInja 300 forum too, and I'm a well known member of the community and I'm known for raffles, and giving away free stuff that I happened to get for free. Here are some examples. 7 Function Multimeter Raffle...

Hello, I just returned my S4 via FedEx to MetroPCS. I just can't fathom $600. Well, $550 after rebate as tax was $50, but it's still a lot of money. Now, the S3 is $350 after rebate, so $400 now, which is $150-200 cheaper than the S4. The S4 was a great phone, but the extra money to me doesn't...

Hello! I'm coming over from the LG Motion. I guess, like, pretty much....upgrade, but I wasn't planning on getting this phone but my Motion died, and I was trying to find something that was cheap like the Motion , but at the same time, having all that internal space available to the user. Well...

Ok, long story short, I'm coming from a LG Motion ( Best ever because of internal space ). I recently bought a Alcatel One Touch Fierce to replace the Motion, but after receiving it. It just plain sucks, and now I'm returning it for either the F3 or the F6. After some investigation, I rather...

Got the phone today, and the camera takes decent pictures, but when I press the video button, the screen turns very black, and the video recording starts. At this time, everything I'm viewing is very very very dark, and even when there is light, it's still very dark. Is there anything to tweak...

How do I turn off the scrolling Wallpaper with this phone?

I've had the Motion for about 2 years, maybe a little more, and it finally died on me today. It starting acting weird, force closing everything, boot looping, the whole 9 yards. It's been dropped maybe up to 10 times over the 2 years but not hard drops, but I guess the soft drop yesterday...

Greetings, I'm coming over from the LG Motion 4G. I've had the Motion for about 2 years, maybe a little more, and it finally died on me today. It starting acting weird, force closing everything, boot looping, the whole 9 yards. It's been dropped maybe up to 10 times over the 2 years but not...

So, I just realized that now our phones light up when a text comes in. It didn't do that for a long time when I bought it last year or so. I guess the latest update added that, and I am very happy about it.

Over the past few weeks I've been noting the 4g is pretty sucky. The speed is good when it works. The problem is, the 4g connection likes to constantly time out, and the phone acts like there is no command running to use 4g. At work, I have max bars all the time, best location ever, never had...
