    Is there anyway to get a higher volume out of my Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE for music, either from Pandora or my stored music? In most situations the volume is OK. But on airplanes it is almost inadequate. I don't fly that much, but I just want to make sure I'm not overlooking some kind...

    Root [Virgin Mobile] Does just the act of rooting make your phone prone to glitches?

    I want to root my new phone but this time keeping the stock rom. What I would like to know is if just by rooting every phone turns into some sort of beta version, prone to glitches and such. A trade up for the root privileges. I know it does void the warranty and jada jada jada companies...

    Root [Virgin Mobile] Possible update

    I went back to the stock ROM today. I went into the My Account app and it said there was an update for our firmware. When I checked system update it said I was up to date though. My wife has a victory that's not rooted (she wont let me) and hers did the same thing. Maybe an update is coming.

    Battery life - why rated poorly?

    I noticed this phone is powered by an impressive 2,100mah battery. That's a lot considering many flagship phones with bigger screens (and therefore bigger battery drains) have smaller ones. Yet when I was comparing the specs on this phone with others, the talk time is rated as one of the...

    So I went on a trip this weekend and apparantly Google knows everything about me and what I'm doing. Maybe I'm behind on this but I didn't realize they would know what flights I was booked on or where I was going when I never told them. I guess they scanned my emails to figure this out. Also...
