For anyone following this - I found a reference on another site that I hadn't seen on previous searches. A person downloaded Handcent SMS, and used that to delete an unsent message and then had no more error messages. I downloaded it ("Handcent Next SMS") and didn't see any unsent messages...

I don't know if this is a 3T or generic Android problem, so I'll start here. About a month ago, I started getting an error message every time I'd go in or out of the built in message app. I've verified that the messages were sent and rec'd despite the error. Have tried clearing cache for...

I hadn't really considered a wallet, or at least flip type, case. However, now I'm thinking that may be something to look at since I'm also finding that the somewhat longer size of the T3 doesn't fit as well in my slacks pocket (most of which are too darned shallow!) and there are times it would...

Now I'm starting to search for a good case. I'm a woman with relatively small hands, so am a little concerned about the size and need a good grip. I did buy a Ringke case ahead of time, mostly because it has a spot to attach a wrist strap which I'm used to for the extra security. I'd like to...

Not sure what mine came with since it put me into the setup screens before I had a chance to look. Once I finished the setup it is on 7.0, but during the setup it prompted me to update to oxygen 28 170114, and I'm not sure how that correlates? Anyhow, bottom line is do I have to worry about file...

Are there any "gottchas" I should know first? Things that fall under the "oh, you shouldn't have done that" category? Like when I got the Nexus one of the first warning was don't close the sim drawer if it's empty because if there is no sim in it it's virtually impossible to open again. Does...

FWIW, I ended up getting the insurance that was offered with the purchase. (And decided against the SquareTrade which I've used before but was more expensive). I realize that at some point it's not worth it, but I'm paranoid enough to believe that if I didn't buy any, I'd be guaranteed to drop...

Yes, it has had a good run. I was looking back at my T-mobile messages, and I activated it in early March of 2013. It has done well for my somewhat minimal needs, and has saved me from boredom in many a waiting room letting me surf around. Before I seriously considered the 3T the first thing I...

I just got the "clearance delay" notice. Amazing how fast this can happen potentially.... vs the things I've bought on eBay from China. I'm assuming at some juncture it goes thru customs which is probably slow. As popular as these seem to be, I thought they might have a stockpile of them...

Finally decided and ordered on Jan 16 late afternoon. Confirmation said shipping Jan 17 with estimated delivery Jan 23. Woke up this AM to a text that says DHL Express (number) from WINGSING is scheduled for delivery January 18. Signature required. From China!? Is that even realistic? I'm in...

The OnePlus site offers insurance from Assurant. I've never heard of them; I've used Square Trade in the past. Actually I didn't buy any for my Nexus, but the phone wouldn't have been as expensive to replace. For my previous phones, I bought coverage with the carrier when I bought the phone...

Thanks. I know most people consider wrist straps weird, or at least not something they care about. :), but now I'm used to it. And since I have fairly small hands and this would be a larger phone than I'm used to, I'd probably feel more secure using it in some situations.

The "getting close" thread is mine ;) and people have been helpful with that. Since I'd been so sure up until it was released that I'd buy a Pixel, I really hadn't kept up with what phones have become available, other than the more expensive, more well known phones, and was just trying to figure...

I think it's getting to be time to consider replacing my N4. Not only is the GPS getting randomly flaky - sometimes it goes out for no reason and then while driving it comes back on. (In the same suburban area where I've been driving with it for years). Now the Bluetooth periodically doesn't...

Oh, one more thing. As I remember from when I got the Nexus 4, the sims came in different sizes. Will my current micro sim fit the 3T? T-Mobile is no longer offering the $30 plan, or at least not on their website, so I want to make sure I can use the same sim. (I vaguely remember someone back...
