Hey I'm also a Cord Cutter and with a new little one and the associated child care fees looking to save money everywhere I can. The NBA League Pass mobile is only $49.99 for an Android Phone. Can you take this via MHL via HDMI to your TV or is it blocked (I recall some stuff with Apple and...

Has anyone else noticed Nova Launcher causing excessive battery usage? Or perhaps it is the Nova notification product? I was getting great battery lifted (typically charge every 48 hours or so) and then I installed Nova after I saw all the people's home screens online. I then went to having...

Are you sure? Based On this article samsung still isn't Arm AArchitectural license. .... What if Samsung Exynos Goes ARM Architectural? | EE Times

Samsung fabricates the chips, but they don't design them. If I followed a recipe from a master chef I am not a master chef. It also doesn't mean I'm talent-less, but what Samsung is doing with their fab vs what companies like an Apple, Qualcomm, Marvell, etc do is a huge difference.

The battery life on my Note 3 is way better than any iPhone I've owned. But to be fair, I had to shut off all the junk Samsung included THAT DOES NOT WORK first. :)

Hey Alex your homescreen was my favorite. Sorry to be a copycat, but consider it a complement. I used yours as an influence. It also helped me design all my other screens too I'm really happy with the homescreens now. Doesn't feel like old grandpa massive icon phone anymore.

It's a bit buried in this article, but it says "Not only will Android users be able to take advantage of Aereo?s $8/month service that streams the local, over-the-air broadcast signals on their smartphones and tablets, they?ll also be able to connect it to a Roku set-top box or Google Chromecast...

Ok this is a stupid question, but how do you add widgets to the lock screen?

I hate the icon of the stock app so much. Didn't anyone at Samsung stop and think "wow this looks awfully close to an email icon.". Dumbest icon ever.

Yeah it is kind of buried. Settings - Account Settings - Select Account - More Settings (button at bottom) - Show Images.

There are a lot of great phones out there. This is one of probably 5 or 6 phones that most would consider "Excellent" right now.

I put on Home2 Shortcut and re-mapped the double click to open Google. What drives me nuts though is getting to voice recognition is a pain with this phone where it was really easy with the iPhone. iPhone: 1. Long hold Home button (even if the device has swipe lock) 2. Start voice...

Has everyone gone mad? Samsung is charging how much for these stupid cases? Everyone bashes Apple all day long on these forums, but the smart cases FOR MY IPADS cost less than these stupid Samsung Flip Wallet and S-View cases. Stop for a moment and ask if you're really THAT much different...

Short of Samsung providing demo's or T-Mobile providing training I really don't expect them to know much about the phones. My local store didn't get stock until yesterday, and the two employees working today were not even in yesterday. T-Mobile employees are normal people too. I don't like...

It is the ability to block calls, notifications, alarms, etc. A good example would be blocking cell/text messages overnight except for emergency contacts so you are not disturbed. I have a friend that likes to text in the middle of the night when drunk this will be very useful for :)
