Hi All, Ever since Metro merged with T-Mobile my calls have been dropping or not coming thru at all. Quite often I'll get a voicemail but the call does not show up in my recent calls list. If the caller assumes I know their number or that it would show up in my recent calls list, they sometimes...

Hi All, I upgraded from the LG Spirit to Galaxy S5 Recently due to the Metro PCS merger with T-Mobile. Everything was working fine and I was able to root my phone which is why I'm posting here. (Although I don't think my problem has anything to do with rooting). All of the sudden my external...

Hi All, Due to Metro's recall of my LG Spirit 4G, which I really enjoyed thanks to GT ROM's and this community's great support, I'd like to know how to reset my phone to factory after rooting it. I'm running GT's "Samurai" ROM. Is it as simple as booting into recovery and selecting "wipe...

Hi All, All of the sudden my microphone doesn't work. I can't use S Voice or my guitar tuner as neither can detect any sound. Speakers work fine and I can play video and hear everything perfectly. All sound effects work. Hoping for a simple fix. Any help is appreciated, Thanks...........Tom

Hi All, I'm running GT's most excellent Samurai Rom and a strange thing has started happening after months of trouble free play. My music doesn't show up in PowerAmp or just the last song played will be there. I'll reboot and my music shows up but will go away for no apparent reason. Not having...

Hi all, Since I can no longer move APK's to my external SD card, can anyone tell me how I can get them off my phone? I use Titanium backup so perhaps the answer is there. What I would like to do is back up the actual APKs from my phone and selectively install them on my tablet if I want to. My...

Hi All, I'm running the excellent Katana Rom and I'm having a problem with the phone occasionally saying "the SD card has been removed" and then warning me of the proper procedure when I do want to remove the card. I have not touched the card at all and what happens when I get that message is...

Hi All, I have tried repeatedly to download updates to no avail. I have been clearing the data from the play store app as well as Google services but cannot download. VERY discouraging. It used to work just fine and now this. I wish I knew what was different and what the hell happened:mad:.

Hi All, I'm rooted and running the excellent IcySpirit rom and have been for several weeks without any problems. Last week or so my phone occasionally becomes either unresponsive or is shutting down by itself. If I pull the battery and reboot ...no problems ..until it happens again. Seems to be...

Hi All, For some reason I can no longer download or update from Google Play. Downloads appear to start then nothing happens. :confused: Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks..Tom

Hi All, For some reason the "Background Data" checkbox will not stay checked. This is something new. All along I kept it unchecked unless I wanted to Sync my calendar, contacts or twitter; and also when I went to "Google Play". When I was finished I would uncheck the "Background Data" box to...

Hi all, Just did a Nand restore after not being able to boot into cm7 (got stuck at boot-up animation for some unknown reason). I chose "nand restore" and it completed and then I chose "nand backup" to be safe and not sure what to do next. Do I choose "restore Google proprietary sys? Stuck at...

Hi All, I rooted my phone and downloaded a lot of apps including "Titanium Backup Pro ". I mistakenly reset my phone by stupidly hitting a "recover" setting in a quick shut down and reboot app (can't remember the exact name of the app) so it appears I lost everything including all my contacts...

Hi All, Because of your help my phone is rooted and I need help with both formatting and/or partitioning my new 16gb (class 6) sdhc card. I downloaded and installed "SD Formatter 3.0" from the SD Card Association. I intend to use a good chunk of this card for music and would like to have a...

Hi All, I did a permanent root with Z4 and I now see the Superuser app. Not sure what to do next but I think the first order of business will be getting rid of as many of Metro's proprietary apps as I can.Thank you UKCatFan and unnamedny for your help. I'll be back asking a whole lot more...

Hi All, Downgraded to 2.2 on my Optimus M and am ready to really take control of my phone. From everything I have read so far simply running z4root.1.3.0.apk is all I need to do to root this phone. In order to not lose any of my files I have read to use "unrevoked". Is that a choice I'll be...

Thanks to andyo70 (Your guide was easy to follow) I was able to downgrade my Optimus M to 2.2 and am looking forward to unlocking it. I just ordered a 16gb (Class 6) card to replace the stock 2gb card. After I receive it I'll be back for help to root my phone. Any suggestions for partitioning...

Hi All, I'm a newbie with Android and I don't know where to start. I read about "root" and haven't a clue what to do. I would like to take control of my LG Optimus M from Metropcs and set it up for my needs. This is my first smart phone and I'm truly lost. I don't know how to load an app but...
