Amazon's Fire Phone will Support MayDay, so you don't have to go those "Droid Forums" for Answers | Androidheadlines.com I felt like posting this to be a smartass :P

It depends on how many things it had to encrypt at that time. Say if you had 1GB of data(apps, music, etc) it would take longer to encrypt that a blank S4. It's strange that it took 10 minutes when you didn't have anything on it. Might be a hardware problem? AFAIK, you can't undo the...

Beats made a billion dollars last year in headphone sales. It'll pay for itself given time. IMO they bought it for the mindshare it has (there the it thing right now). Also, beats isn't a 'tech' tech company. They sell accessories (that are over priced, but still).

I've worked at a call center before (was for Cox) and yes, we're given a preset option of things to do (extremely limited) and if it's not one of those options we can't do anything. We can transfer you to someone else or either try to get you to curse at us so we can hang up on you. It's not...

Captive/Physical, because when you search the internet in landscape mode, on screen buttons on my Nexus 5 go to the right hand side. I'm left handed. This is a HUGE inconvenience and annoyance. I would really like google to add a left-hand mode for the buttons.

I don't know why people complain about the UI. If you don't like it install a launcher (I personally use Apex launcher, though most people seem to like Nova better). Most of the apps i've seen in the store don't offer a great experience, though. And they don't "feel" like full replacements...

I've been extremely impressed with my two Moto G's. I've noticed the speakers are quite load, even louder than my Nexus 4 and my Moms Nexus 5 (on Sprint until T-Mobile gets better coverage here). It can take quite a punch, to. I've dropped my 8GB Moto a lot (by accident) into the snow (it's...

Were about a month into 2014, and most manufactures have yet to announce any phones yet (except for a few of the lesser known OEM's at CES). With that in mind, What do you think each OEM could improve on for there 2014 flagships/devices?

I got it to stop annoying me by doing this; Settings > App > All > Find "Google Service Framework" > Force Stop > Clear Data and then Disable I've yet to get that annoying update notice again (I have two Moto G's, one running 4.4.2 and one running 4.3). The screen on the one running 4.3 is...

Motorola's been doing amazing things. If they keep this up, they'll be getting my next smartphone purchase. For now, I'm content with my Nexus 4 (probably won't upgrade tell halfway through the year).

The shield would be a would be a cool device to use.

Crossing my fingers.

Cool. *crosses fingers*
