    Ordered from Best Buy on Sept 9, no ETA from BB...Update: DELIVERED!

    Re: Ordered from Best Buy on Sept 9, no ETA from BB I ordered mine on the 11th from BB (black, though) Shipped the next day according to them, but tracking shows it actually shipped yesterday. Delivery is showing as tomorrow. I got in during that 30min window where both were showing available...

    Moto 360 Buying a 3rd party metal band?

    I have my MOTO 360 and black Pebble Steel band being delivered tomorrow so I'll note it. Chuck: I've read the Pebble Steel bands look great, but they flake easily from being rubbed on surfaces. So if you go with the Black one it will be fine, but you might have to replace it down the line...

    Internal storage memory?

    For most people 16GB should be fine as long as you put your messages, pics, video and music on your SD card. Which also has the added benefit of being independent of your core OS so if you update/reload Android and something goes wrong you don't lose them. I have the 32GB version and have...

    What are you listening to on your HTC One (M8)?

    Re: What are you listening to? Directly Loaded to my Device The Ataris Queen Songs of Anarchy 1-3 (SOA Soundtrack) Book of Mormon (The Broadway musical. It's my random one) **I almost never listen to direct loaded music. I just have it on there for poor signal area's. I have unlimited LTE...

    HTC One (M8): Wifi - Facebook issue

    No issues here. So not 100% sure. Although I am in the Facebook beta program so the app updates like every other day for me. Also: Not running the stock ROM. It did work fine when I did, but I've since run a "custom ROM" off XDA (ARHD5)

    iPhone User, Thinking of crossing over

    Yeah, I know with Hangouts. I just prefer the built in nature because of the kids side (and not having to have them run an extra app). It's all for interaction with them with ease, and less about other ways to do it.

    Android users...please put me at ease

    I don't see where it's somehow losing "fun", or any features? SYNC: Doesn't matter to me. I hate push email, and prefer to check it when I feel like it w/o alerts constantly coming in (I even set my work email app to manual updates). Same with just about every single social media alert on...

    Updates frequency & some other questions

    It's actually a somewhat similar process in terms of updating your ROMs. I used to do that ALL the time with my HTC 6800 and a few other WINMO phones I had back then, too.

    HTC One (M8): TPU case

    Re: HTC TPU case I picked one of these up which is pretty similar (no cut out, though). No gripes. Amazon.com: Hyperion HTC The All New ONE PLUS (M8) Phone Case (Compatible with All HTC ONE M8 2014 Models, including HTC One+, HTC One Plus, HTC ONE 2) **Hyperion Retail Packaging** [2 Year...

    Updates frequency & some other questions

    To get a custom ROM that can be put together using other sources (in mention to your not relying on HTC) you don't just need to root your phone. You need to unlock the bootloader, and that can void your warranty if HTC decides it does. HTCDEV allows you to do it, and they provide the info on...

    Google Now making Google Play All Access sound better on the M8?

    Have you checked to see if its something like Boomsound kicking in? Like try turning BOOMSOUND off and see if its balanced one way or the other, or at least consistent poor/good, adn go from there. I don't use GP All Access, although may try it out. I just use Pandora, Google Music (my 20K...

    First impression w/ M8

    There are flags that apps can use to remove the buttons and make them slide out, but most don't seem to do that as completely removing ALL physical buttons is a somewhat new trend. I've only found a few (and mostly those are media/games) that remove them. If you root your phone, at your own...

    How long does it take to fully charge?

    Standard Computer USB 2.0 ports I think are .5A generally. USB 3.0 I haven't looked up, honestly. I know USB 2.0 can support more, but I think most output about .5A as they're really only set to provide base power. The stock charge is 1.5A (so quite a bit quicker) The "rapid charger" will...

    HTC One (M8): Slow Wi-Fi?

    Re: HTC One M8: Slow Wi-Fi? No problems here (TMO M8 w/ ARHD 5.0 ROM) Everything in my house is Wireless N (except my desktop which is wired since the router is right there just out of convenience). My WiFi at home is completely normal on both my 2.4ghz N and 5ghz N connections. I get...
