    Stuttering 60 fps video after 5.1 update

    I have this same problem, it is like the CPU can't handle the video. I'd like to know if there's a solution to this also.

    hotspot paused during phone call

    I don't know why this didn't occur to me earlier, but I decided to call my phone using the hotspot. Long story short, I don't see any issues with the hotspot while the phone is making a call. Bleh, sorry.

    hotspot paused during phone call

    Sorry if this is posted elsewhere. If you rely on your hotspot to maintain a constant connection to the internet then you might want to be aware that the hotspot now pauses during phone calls. I have some online quizzes and coursework will kick me out of my session (and give me a zero) if the...

    Need to buy a new Verizon phone after breaking Galaxy S3. Help?

    If I were you, I would just buy something off contract. That's just me though, I've been tied down to Verizon for years now. Since you had a S3, I am sure you'd want something with LTE, so look for that. LTE phones have SIM cards, it's not a big deal, just take your phone to a Verizon store and...

    Sim Tray stuck

    Has anyone had the misfortune of having a stuck sim card tray? I can't get the tray to pop out. Any ideas? *** Edit *** I was able to get the tray out. Phew! I used a plastic removal tool that you often see people use in phone repair videos.

    Flipping from 4G to 3G

    Some here, and my wife's S3 is so much stronger now. It makes me scratch my head. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Do you use a screen protector?

    As someone who had an S3 scratch for no reason at all, I suggest getting one. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Issues with data dropping during mobile hotspot/tethering

    Update on my tethering, been working great! I think I figured it out. Thing that sucks is I went back to a RAZR Maxx. I really think the true root of the issue is a problem with Verizon's hotspot and Jelly Bean. Something isn't working right between the two. Sent from my Nexus 7 using...

    RIP Note 2... your shift is over

    Nope I just got a refurbished S3 from Asurion. White box with all the accessories that comes with a retail box. However, thus refurb is in great shape, unlike the vzw refurbs Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

    Galaxy SIII Batteries...

    It might be hard to believe but now Verizon will not send you a back and battery if you choose to switch devices. I know they used to do so, but when my wife went from the Charge to the GNex, I had to purchase the extended battery and cover. Amazing huh? The 3 hours of on screen time is...
