Re: Turbo 5.1 Google BRIGHT WHITE search box Ah, didn't know I could disable it. Great tip! Thanks.

Turbo 5.1 Google BRIGHT WHITE search box Does anyone know a way to make the omni-present Google search box anything other than the bright white it is now with 5.1? With darker wallpaper it looks really bad. KitKat was much better.

I forgot to mention above that with the Verizon charger, it usually only charges to 99% even with an overnight charge, so the red light doesn't go out. Every now and then it will go to 100%, but usually not. The 99% doesn't bother me a bit.

I have the Verizon one. It works fine. I chose it over the Tylt Vu because the Tylt Vu takes up so much space (I use it on my nightstand) and the Verizon one doesn't. The charging light is quite dim, no problem on a nightstand.

Like many of you, I would like the phone's speaker volume to be louder. There are a bunch of volume booster apps, however the reviews on most of them claim to make no difference, and most of them have ridiculous invasive permissions. Has anyone used one of these apps with the Turbo that has made...

Previous phone to the Turbo was a RMHD, which was still going strong and holding a charge very well. The Turbo was more of a want than a need, which I know many AC readers can understand. The Turbo has been a really nice upgrade and I am very happy with it.

Just got a Turbo on my existing contract, and when someone tries to leave a voicemail (which was setup and working fine with the phone previous to the Turbo) the message says that voicemail has not been setup. When I call *86 to set it up, it wants to walk me through the setup for visual...

Re: Verizon Qi charging stand I am the OP, and I bought the charger today. It indeed works fine with the Turbo. I guess Verizon just hasn't updated their website to reflect that the Turbo has compatibility with this charger. I originally bought the Tylt Vu, but it is going back. While I'm sure...

Has anyone used this Verizon brand Qi charging stand with the Turbo? I saw it at a Verizon store today and it looked nice because (1) there is no hassle finding the "sweet spot" for charging as it is a cradle and (2) I could use the phone while it is charging. It is the same idea as the Tylt Vu...

Yesterday (my first day with JB) the unlock pattern I had been using before JB worked fine. Today, however, it barely does. I have to swipe the pattern about a dozen times and do it very slowly. After I finally got back into the phone today, I eliminated the pattern, re-booted the phone, and...

I am using the stock calendar app, synced only to one account (my Gmail account) and after JB all my calendar entries were gone! (Contacts were fine) Logged on to Gmail with my PC, and everything still there. Somehow after JB my calendar app lost the link to my Gmail account. From the (empty)...

I wanted a case with some protection and purchased the Incipio DualPro case and the Otterbox Commuter case with the idea of returning the one I didn't like as well. The DualPro was 29.95 (no shipping or sales tax charges) and the Commuter was $34.95 plus $4.81 shipping (to Atlanta) and $3.18...

Ooops, scratch my previous comment. I was looking alphabetically for it, not at the end of the list (where it did appear). Sorry.

I just disabled NFL Mobile. When I go back into all apps, it is not listed at all (even after rebooting), so there is no way to enable it again. In this case I don't care, but I suggest to anyone that you should test this on your phone with an app you don't care about (i.e. you will never enable)

Like many of you, I love the thin form factor of the Maxx HD, as well as the look and feel of the Kevlar and the metal band. So there is a big part of me that just doesn't want to use any case on it. But, what worries me is that the glass front goes virtually to all four the edges of the phone...
