Do you have any impressions of the Pure Gear screen protector? It looks interesting. Pictures would be awesome too.

I have the Spigen Tough Armor for the V20. The gunmetal color doesn't seem to have the soft touch coating. It's very slippery. The black one has the coating and feels much better in the hand. I have not roughed the case up to determine how durable it is. The kickstand isn't super durable but it...

I had the same issue. I just restarted the phone and it charged to 100%. I hadn't restarted in several weeks. Maybe the calibration fails after an extended run time.

Doesn't the LG Gallery app also do videos? I found that both functions work within the same app and I think LG's video player is the best. I plays just about every format I toss at it. Does the Google Gallery app do the same?

Can you give any more info? Where did you buy it? Do you have any pictures? How much of the screen is covered? Thanks!

There are no tempered glass screen protectors that cover the entire screen but I used this screen protector and it worked well for what it is but be warned it might take some good constant pressure to get the lower right hand corner to seal. I was able to apply it correctly three times.

Re: IR Blaster ? The LG G5 does have an IR blaster. It is the only flagship phone out that still has the IR blaster and a removable battery. If you don't care about those features almost all the other phones out including the HTC 10 have a sealed in battery and no IR blaster.

I still don't have the kit kat update and my phone is working as good as the day I bought it. Great battery life, full flash functionality, and most importantly I have full and complete access to my SD card. I have never heard of any wide spread security issues with Jelly Bean I really think its...

Re: How to avoid KitKat 4.4.2 update? Yes I was referring to wiping the cache. You did exactly what I was talking about. Did you still see the update was waiting for you to install? Who is your carrier? Each carrier has a different policy. On at&t they can push the update to you whether you...

Re: How to avoid KitKat 4.4.2 update? If I were you I'd do a factory reset on the phone and delete your cache,. Just make sure you back everything up first. The update data shouldn't survive a reset. It's extreme but if you don't they will force KitKat down your throat.

Here's one: Third party apps access to your sd card without having the root the phone to 'fix' it! This has been a great feature of android phones for years. KitKat takes it away. You also have to use a special flash .apk to be able to visit flash sites since KitKat removed certain APIs. There...

NO! It IS awful. Do some research. I discovered you only LOSE features by taking the update. If you like your phone on Jelly Bean there is no good reason to update.

KitKat and SD cards — what's fixed, what's broken and what's misunderstood | Android Central Beware of KitKat. It will change how you use your note and you WILL lose some functionality if you 'upgrade'. The link posted gives some info about how it makes the sd card harder to access. Most of the...

You could apply a 'fix' that would undo Googles permissions for the SD card. I wish Google would leave it up to the users to protect their own data. I don't need or want Google to do that for me.

You are just the latest victim of the KitKat virus. It is the worst Android 'update' ever and it makes your phone demonstrably worse. I'm sorry for your loss. You will not be able to go back to Jelly Bean by the way.
