    [Closed] The Android Central non-sexist, non-spammy OnePlus One contest

    I'm not exactly swimming in cash so I don't have the luxury of testing out all these kick-*** phones with their kick-*** specs and features. A free OnePlus One would be perfect to start getting accustomed to the new hardware/software that is coming out without breaking the bank. Also, I'm...

    Has anyone yet received 4.4.3 on their Nexus 5?

    Sorry, meant to say 'my rom' instead of just root. Using SlimKAT. Never looked into it before though. But IIRC LightFlow Lite and Volume+ allow you to unlink the two volume settings.

    You can go into sound > volumes > and uncheck "link ringtone & notifications volumes Unless that's root only. I'm not too sure.

    Well THERE'S your problem. Sprint doesn't provide signal, unfortunately.

    Incoming notifications/texts/emails etc screen doesn't turn on

    If you want a dumbphone, go back to iPhone. You can root your phone and do whatever you want to it as far as notifications. Even on stock you can use LightFlowLite and control vibration, sound, screen, and notification light. If you put effort into customizing your phone, you will get the most...

    Using Hangouts for SMS/Texts/MMS is really going to take some getting used to

    Looks like my prayers were answered, lol. I got the notification today to update via Play Store. Currently writing my first novel.

    AT&T Note 2: Battery life horrible after update.

    Best of luck. Usually a clean wipe will get rid of most problems, but if not, you're probably looking at syncing issues or maybe the brightness.

    Using Hangouts for SMS/Texts/MMS is really going to take some getting used to

    Has anyone heard if there is currently a fix in the works in regards to the character limit on SMS/MMS with Sprint and Hangouts? Still unable to write novels as texts. Having to break them down individually. I believe the limit was 160 characters.

    AT&T Note 2: Battery life horrible after update.

    How's your cell reception? Your cell signal is using up a huge portion of the battery which shouldn't really be happening. I've had that issue recently and if you tap on it, it will tell you how long the phone has been without signal. My knowledge on that is limited but I don't believe that...

    Nexus 5: Problems & Issues

    Re: Nexus 5 Problems & Issues You might want to go into settings > apps > gallery/google photos and clear the data/cache before you wipe the whole phone. That might reset the default location of the folder once it's created.

    Dynamic Notifications?

    Does Dynamic Notifications have similar functions like Light Flow or DashNotifier? And is Dynamic even "functional" as your lock screen unless you buy premium?

    Nexus 5: Problems & Issues

    Re: Nexus 5 Problems & Issues Have you tried "Play [song name] by [Artist]? Also, is the music you are trying to play in your library, either on Google Play music or on the phone or SD card?

    Turbo charging your (already fast) N5

    I heard that dropping it to .5x makes it seem faster, but instantaneous gives it an awkward feeling like things happen out of nowhere and it's a little disorienting without animations. I think .5 is the best of both worlds: speed and animations.

    Cheers, TraderGary! I'll definitely be perusing these pages for hope, lol.

    AT&T Note 2: Battery life horrible after update.

    Re: Battery life horrible after update. A screenshot with your battery stats would REEEEALLY help, lol. You're asking to find a needle in a haystack. Also, check google settings and auto sync settings to see if anything you DON'T want running, IS running.
