    Bezel - Chamfer or Micro Knurl?

    Just got it! My wife won't let me use it until Christmas though. haha :'( I definitely like the micro knurl. Hesitant about the silver on black, but I think I like it. It'll definitely grow on me.

    Bezel - Chamfer or Micro Knurl?

    What did you guys pick for your bezel type? I've originally ordered a black case with black metal band and a silver, micro knurl bezel. But now I'm second guessing my decision to pair the silver micro knurl with black case and band. The problem is that he black micro knurl bezel is now out of...

    AT&T vs Unlocked version any difference with performance?

    Cool! Thanks for pointing this out. It definitely was not a typo. Glad it covers all the bands now. My phone is on order with the cyber Monday coupon!

    AT&T vs Unlocked version any difference with performance?

    Thanks. Looks like I won't be able to resist much longer. My Verizon contract on my Galaxy Note 2 runs out this month after two years. It has been a good phone (running CyanogenMod), but I think it is time for a change (and a break from Verizon).

    AT&T vs Unlocked version any difference with performance?

    Does AT&T not need the the additional LTE bands that are in the AT&T version and not in the Pure edition? This is from Moto's site: Moto X - Pure Edition (GSM Unlocked with T-Mobile SIM - XT1095): GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz) UMTS/HSPA+ (850, 900, 1700 (AWS), 1900, 2100 MHz) 4G LTE...

    Best Ways to Extend the Life & Performance of my TBolt

    Sounds like a new battery may help. I'd also definitely go to a custom ROM. Some are more light weight. And be sure to clear out your cache and data in the process. A fresh start definitely couldn't hurt. I don't actively use my Thunderbolt anymore so I can't help with specifics. Mine stills...

    A cash register was able to text my Note 2 without my permission, immediately after a sale. How???

    The way the Square Register works is after swiping your card, it will ask if you want a receipt sent to an email address or texted to a number. You must have paid with square somewhere else and put your phone number in. This would then be remembered by Square and show up other places you use the...

    why does it take so long for Verizon Note 2 to lock on to GPS?

    I hope you realize how spoiled we are. It was just a few years ago that I had standalone GPS units that would take minutes to lock on. :) Posted via Android Central App

    How can I use my verizon galaxy note 2 and switch to att?

    I guess you could try putting your friend's ATT sim card in your phone and see what happens. From some of these other posts about global use, it may just work. Not sure about your data speed though. Posted via Android Central App

    Encrypt device and external memory card

    Sorry I can't help here. I haven't put a custom ROM on this phone yet. Unfortunately, with encryption there probably isn't much chance of recovery when things go wrong. At least I would almost hope you can't recover encrypted files since that is kind of the point. Sorry for your trouble though...
