For some reason, my brand new Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge has screen burn. I can clearly see red icons burnt into the screen, and there is even a thin, white line extending from the center of the screen to the right edge of the screen that never fades away. How is this possible if the phone is brand...

I just bought a TECNO Spark 8P. It seems to be a nice phone. At the store, they asked if I wanted a screen protector on it, so I told them yes. Afterwards, when I started using the phone, when I would hold the bottom of the phone with my right hand, with the right part of my hand against the...

Which battery should I get for my LG G3? I got an original BY-53YH brand new one off of Amazon that was manufactured in 2017, but for some reason, it became worn out very quickly. After just a year or so of use, it started to die very rapidly. So which one should I get instead?

The only reason is that in that article that I posted, it says that if your phone has an outdated operating system, then it could make it more vulnerable to cyber attacks or viruses, but I'm not sure if this is necessarily true for Android Marshmallow.

I tried upgrading to Android 7 (Nougat), but it wouldn't let me because it said that my phone is already "up to date." Could this be a problem?

I read an article earlier on Thisisinsider.com entitled "7 signs your phone is dying and it's time to get a new one." One of the main reasons it mentioned for getting a new phone was the inability to upgrade the OS. The latest is Android Oreo (8.0), but my LG G3 only has Android Marshmallow...

Does anyone know what the best case is for the LG G3?

Is there any way to take it to an independent repair shop and have them repair or replace the mic?

Unfortunately, Verizon eliminated their option for a free upgrade, so I guess the only way that I'm going to have a working phone is if I shell out more money. C'est la vie! :(

For some reason, the battery on my LG G3 seems to be draining abnormally quickly. I have disabled Wi-Fi, location, and Bluetooth, the screen brightness is set to 50%, and the only apps that I run are Chrome and Facebook. I never play games on my phone, use Google Maps to navigate, and I only...

I actually did the spin test with the battery, and it doesn't spin. It doesn't drain excessively quickly, either. It seems to be pretty strong still. Posted via the Android Central App

I bought my original phone in February 2015. Posted via the Android Central App

It happens once or twice a week, I would say, although I can't say what the exact frequency of it occurring is, because it happens kind of randomly. Also, it started right when I got this phone, which is a replacement, since my previous phone stopped making calls after a Verizon tech pulled out...

Once in a while when I turn the flash on and try taking a photo or shoot a video, my phone will immediately shut off. When I press the power button to try and turn it back on, it will not turn on, unless I remove and reinsert the battery, or plug it into a power source. What I can't seem to...

I have All Calls Recorded installed, and whenever I make or receive a call, it automatically records it. I also have Calls Blacklist installed, which blocks any unwanted soliciting calls. Or could any of these other apps that I have installed be the culprit?
