    When do you plan to upgrade

    I've had my 6T since it was released and couldn't be happier with the phone. Battery life is still close to like it was when new. Thought I might upgrade when the 9T is released but as long as the phone is still receiving regular updates I might hang on a little longer. Your thoughts?

    8.1 Update

    Got tired of waiting for the 8.1 update for my US SM-T580 and decided to try and flash 8.1 for Australia. Success!

    Verizon and spam

    For the past year, I've received at least 4 or 5 spam calls a week. The top 3 want to "help me with my student loans", which I don't have, "help me with my business line of credit", that I don't have, and "my inquiry into health insurance", which I never did. I switched back to Straight Talk...

    Samsung 42 Galaxy S5 models - Dummies Guide

    If you are going to stick with US GSM and the S5, it's going to be a AT&T or T-Mobile version. I gave up on Samsung phones after the S5.

    Motorola G6

    Got mine delivered Friday and so far I'm really happy with it. Motorola stayed with the single System partition that is less than 3gb, leaving 24.6gb out of original 32gb for user data. Still has the traditional recovery with all the usual options I've been accustomed to. No NFC but never used...

    Golden Avatars

    Okay, I gotta ask, what's up with the golden avatar? Is it just a Moderator thing? Starting to see a pattern. Inquiring Minds want to Know.

    Locked Bootloader

    Picked up a Samsung J7, SM-J727U, this weekend on a whim. Thought hey, looks just like the S5 but a US unlocked version without any carrier branding or carrier bloat. Didn't do any research, big mistake. Past experience with US unlocked versions of phones, mostly Motorola, I thought it should...

    Phone storage

    How much of your phone's storage are you actually using? 16gb use to be the minimum amount needed. Now with seamless updates, the system partition average is about 13gb, not leaving much for user data. With my 32gb Moto X4, I still have approximately 16gb free. With photos and documents backed...

    My 5T

    Had my 5T for a few weeks now and really like it. The screen/display is the perfect size for what I was looking for. First time using Oxygen OS and surprised at how smooth and easy it works. Lots of features that you usually only find in custom roms and pretty much bare bones stock Android...

    Wipe Cache

    No option to Wipe the Cache Partition in recovery anymore. I did find that you can wipe cached data for all apps in Settings - Storage. Wonder if it is just as good?
