    Samsung Galaxy S6 Way to go Samsung!

    Re: Way to go Samsung! Hey, I came from Blackberry z10 (Great Phone but time to move on) and have had the Mega 2 for about 2 weeks and just love it.. Wife got the same phone at the same time and she loves hers too. She was an iPhone 5c gal. We both are stunned we waited so long to go Android...

    Help! Need App Suggestion..

    Yes beagle82 (like your Avatar, lol, I feel like that a lot), and it did work but the ads thing just drives me nuts. There has to be a paid app that does this well or a free one with no ads, somewhere. Maybe if I contacted the author of ApkShare, they would allow me a paid version of that app...

    Help! Need App Suggestion..

    Can someone give me a GREAT suggestion on a app that is a paid app (hate ads) or free (same reason no ads) that will let me back up (apps only) as apk's. I don't want anything else backed up except selected apps. I have searched Google & Playstore, everything I have found so far has had issues...

    Samsung Galaxy S6 Way to go Samsung!

    Re: Way to go Samsung! Personally, unless you have been on the receiving end of being a power user and a year out (the best phone you ever had) your battery dies. Then you check to see what it costs to have a non-removable replaced. Then if you do pay to have it replaced, did they install a top...

    Blackberry to Android Jump Newbie

    Yes, I guess a lot of Blackberry users that have been dedicated for years. Have now moved on. My z10 was a great phone don't get me wrong. I loved it but I think the Android platform has a lot more to offer. The money we invest in a phone now days, I feel I deserve more then what I was getting...

    Google + app question?

    Excellent.. Thanks for the info.. Yes, that's what I did was clear the cache and data then disabled G+.. I was given an un-install option at first but when I activated the un-install it reported only the update that was installed would be removed and the bloat version in the OS would stay. I...

    Google + app question?

    Ok, thanks for the great answer. Newbie to Android sort of. My knoledge is with Android apps and BlackBerry z10 so did not want to goof my other Google stuff. I like some of it. Just never use Google + and it's a huge app so figured I would trash it. Yep, was only able to delete the update. The...

    Google + app question?

    I have a Galaxy Mega 2. Can I delete the Google + app without Playstore or other Google app negative use repercussions? YouTube etc.. I don't use the Google Plus social network directly and want to delete it off my phone.. Akawarrior.. Via : Galaxy Mega 2 - Kitkat 4.4

    Why do you choose Android?

    I used to work for a company that bought nothing but Apple products. I learned to just hate them. The Apple products that is. Crashing all the time, non-user friendly and non-productive. Windows phones not on the market but would not have bought one anyway. Flip phones reminded me of "some place...

    Can't receive text from iPhone fix

    Well, see there if I had only posted here first. Lol.. Guess iCloud & iMessage may be linked with each other. Seems logical as I think messaging is backed up on the iCloud too. (Not sure, never dug deep into it). Killing the iCloud account was a work for her. Thanks for the mind opening...

    Can't receive text from iPhone fix

    My wife & myself just switched from (her) iPhone 5c, (me) BlackBerry z10 to (both) Samsung Galaxy Mega 2. We ran into a crazy thing on her text messages only from other past contacts that were still on a iPhone. When they would try to send her a text message, the send message notification bubble...

    Blackberry to Android Jump Newbie

    Hello all, Made a drastic change in a very important part of my digital world and gave up a very very long term life from the Blackberry World to now Android. I have a lot to learn but me coming from what I consider a BlackBerry Expert the transition should be somewhat painless. Blackberry 10 OS...
