Got them the x4s through Google, spent 5 hours installing 6 or 7 updates. Definitely glad I got them out of the box before delivering. I'm surprised there wasn't a consolidated update. I really like the smaller size, and I think it will be a good first smartphone for my dad and second for my...

I'm going to get my parents new phones in the next few weeks. My mom has had a Blu r1 HD for a year, so she's figured out how to use it. My dad has never had a smartphone, so I expect he'll need a bit of help. I'd like to get them the same so they can help each other and leave me out of it...

Have you successfully paired with any Bluetooth devices? My Amazon tablet will not pair with anything while it's paired with my headphones - it won't switch over. My wife's iPhone won't connect to my speakers if they're connected to another phone - it won't take control. Try turning Bluetooth...

800 on amazon today, not sure how long that will last. Could be today only. Expect under 800 on swappa by early January.

Maps has a time line feature.

Also, if they include a radio and a DVD player and Bluetooth and USB drive and aux in, your mom/friend/person who buys your car later can use it as expected. I used a tablet as a head unit for almost 6 months, and not having fm radio, having my wife refuse to take the car, my iPhone loving...

"I see you're having some trouble, have you tried a different $10 cable that might get your $500 phone talking to your $500 head unit?" "Technical mumbo jumbo I don't understand the technical wizardry going on here it should work like my 1974 RCA television get off my lawn!" So did you try a...

If you haven't already done something, might be worth doing a warranty exchange on the old one (I'm sure you can come up with something), return the bought one, and wear the exchanged one until v2 comes out.

Why not just get a cable http://www.amazon.com/Micro-USB-OTG-Adapter-Cable/dp/B00D8YZ2SA?t=androidcentral00-20&tag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU4434565 And plug your hard drive in to the phone? I use everything from flash drives to 2.5" 500gb drives to keyboards with this cable...

How hard can it be? No idea, I have a chromecast, and I'm streaming to it now. In the 24 hours since you posted, you probably earned $35 and drove past a best buy.

Hello again Forum I picked up a galaxy s4 about this time last year for $300 with the intent of using it for a year and confirming I liked me some android. It's starting to slow down on me, and I'm ready for something new(er). I prefer to buy used, so I can change phones again in 6-12...

Has anyone rooted or rom'd this tablet? Any reason to expect it to be more or less of an effort than average?

Re: How to free up empty space on 32GB tablet (Iconia A500, rooted) Once you get an app through the play store, it's yours.

Re: How to free up empty space on 32GB tablet (Iconia A500, rooted) I use an app called Disk Usage that gives a good view of what's going on. I only have a dozen apps between 50 and 150 mb, as shown in Storage/Apps : But my total apps size is showing as 3+ gb: Disk Usage lets me see that...

I've been using amazon basics cables, seem to be good quality. Apple has replaced every cord I've taken in, and if my s4 cord were to start to crack, I'd take it to the Samsung shop and lean on them pretty hard.
