    Where's my Android 13 update.

    I have an unlocked S21+ and I've been patiently waiting for android 13. It was released over a month ago and I have been checking daily but no update is available. Am I the only one? Should I try to update it manually?

    Is LG V30 the best camera smartphone?

    It's possible, but never buy on the hope of a software update, you'll be disappointed.

    Lockscreen shortcuts not working

    On the default launcher, you can set up 5 shortcuts on the lockscreen. The Phone dialer and camera are default, and you can set up 3 others. However none of the shortcuts seem to work, not even the camera or dialer. Anybody having the same issue? Any idea how to get them to work, is there a...

    Best LG V30 Cases & Accessories

    Re: LG V30 Cases I ordered one of these after seeing your post. It's perfect for me, fits like a glove. as minimal as you can get while offering at least some back and side protection. If anybody ever comes out with a descent tempered glass screen protector, I'll be all set.

    S7 Edge Silver too shiny/reflective?

    I thought the Silver was more reflective, and I've had mostly black phones in the past. Decided to go with the Gold. Plus, since it seems to be the least popular color this time around, it should be easier to get my hands on. the silver on verizon is backordered.

    S7 Edge - Verizon preorders

    I'm a guy and I got the gold. I'm guessing I won't get any more abuse than I got when I had a red Lumia 920. I had a buddy ask if the Lumia 920 came with a free lipstick (solid burn).

    Snapdragon vs Exynos; benchmark comparisons

    I've been reading everything I can on the S7 Edge, and the worst I've heard is that it got hot when it was doing initial setup. Where did you read that heat and throttling was an issue?

    S7 Edge - Verizon preorders

    I ordered the gold too. I'm lucky I guess, I like the gold the best, and it does seem to be the least favorite color.

    Which color did you get and why?

    Haven't ordered yet, but I'm going to get the gold. I saw them at verizon the other day, the silver is too reflective, and I'm sick of black.

    S7 Edge - Verizon preorders

    Because you can put it on eBay to subsidize the cost of the S7 Edge. even if you just get $150, you just reduced the price of the phone to $650.

    Received my S7 Edge today (dunno how), unboxing and questions

    I know what you mean. I have the original Droid Turbo with a 3900 mAH battery, and I rarely see more than 3 hrs SOT. And if I play a game for 20 minutes i'm down at least 10%.

    Received my S7 Edge today (dunno how), unboxing and questions

    If an app is already active, and you use the fingerprint scanner to unlock the phone, does the active app stay open, or does it go to the home screen?

    Galaxy S7 Edge - What screen protector ?

    Re: What screen protector ? I heard the Zagg tempered glass screen protector for the S7 Edge isn't supposed to be available immediately. If you go to their website, it is not listed as available.
