    Well it''s about time!! [Sony Xperia Z3v getting Lollipop]

    Hmmmm. My KitKat 4.4 is stable & happy on my Z3v. And hasn't Android already moved on to Marshmallow? So...how will this be something that will provide any meaningful improvement to reading email & looking at pictures? It's not like I have any desire to watch a 6" movie, I have a TV for...

    Best RSS Reader?

    Big fan of InoReader here. Used it since Google Reader died. I don't use the app, though, I just either read on PC or pull it up in Chrome on the giant brick phone (Xperia z3v whopping 5.8", geez).

    New Hello From New To Everything in NC!

    LOL, my mom did the same thing last year. I had to show her how to use the GPS on her phone (I may hate them, but I do know how to use them, heh) so she would stop calling me all freaked out being lost! I've made my peace with the giant brick & found some useful things I like very much (and...

    New Z3V Owner - First Impressions

    I disabled a LOT (obviously they won't let you uninstall the junk) -- it took two days of picking through, but you can go into your App Manager under settings & I went through each one & turned off notifications & disabled everything I didn't want. Of course, the phone will give you the...

    New Z3V Owner - First Impressions

    Thanks & yes, I definitely want to get a wireless charger once I pay some more bills -- I did not even know they existed until I bought the phone, what a great invention! Once I cleaned up the background junk & activated battery stamina, it's done better than I expected, so that's great. I've...

    New Hello From New To Everything in NC!

    Wow, thank you all so much for all the welcomes!! :D I've survived four whole days so far, ROFL, without throwing the phone at a wall (although this may be largely due to the fact that I am poor) -- it took two of them just to streamline & shut down/get rid of all the background junk. I do...

    New Hello From New To Everything in NC!

    Yep, finally had to break down & do the walk of shame to touchscreen land, LOL -- long story. But wanted to post a greeting & a THANK YOU in advance for all the helpful information here. While not new to the depths of PC/web design ("trial by google"), the whole Android thing/computer phone is...

    New Z3V Owner - First Impressions

    I just wanted to reply as I just got this phone yesterday & am still dazed with crossed eyes. Because yes, I'm a cranky 36 year old who held on to her beloved Alias 2 WITH ACTUAL BUTTONS for as long as I could. I HATE touchscreens, but communication & blog marketing demands were outpacing my...
