    Update

    That would be nice. I'm surprised they are even updating the note 4 since the note 6 will be out by fall. Posted via the Android Central App

    Galaxy S7 or Note 4

    If you want to use Samsung pay, then S7 it is. If these phones werent so expensive, id probaly get S7 edge in hopes the software side is less laggy. Seems like a nice phone and they brought back some of the features that were taken away with last years models. Posted via the Android Central App

    10 days with the Gear S2 Sport

    Same; if not for the ability to be stand-alone (3G/4G), I wouldn't have even considered a smart watch. It seems a day is all I get from the battery, but I also mostly keep it untethered to my phone, which is the main reason I bought this. Google maps with turn by turn navigation would be nice :)

    Note 4 and your car, Compatible? Yes/No?

    2012 Lincoln MKX - connects automatically every time, voice dialing, Hangouts, Skype, plays music via bluetooth, and reads and displays text messgages. I havent been able to get it to respond to messages using Lincoln touch, but SVoice and Google Voice do the job. It may be that I'm just not...

    Do we really need to put a screen protector on the Note 4?

    Had the same problem with the Nokia 920 and could never get a screen protector to hold on the edges. It really depends on how you use your phone and how cautious too are. I didn't have any screen scratches on my G2 after a year of use, but note 4 screen may not be as durable, don't know...

    It's there an aftermarket charger that supports fast charging of the Note 4?

    Best buy's Rocketfish brand makes a 12w watt charger for both car and home, and I don't believe it costs more than $20. I've used it on my G2 and N4 with quick results. Not sure if it's faster than samsungs, but it provides good results and its easy to find. Rocketfish™ - Micro USB Vehicle...

    Incipio Octane Case

    I just ordered one and can let you know after Friday. I chose it, because it appears thin, while seeming to provide a decent amount of protection. I went with translucent black. Posted via the Android Central App

    Thinking of selling off G2 for HTC One M8, Thoughts?

    There are many uses for good external speakers on a phone and everyone has different needs. I use my phone to play music in the mornings while getting ready, when working on the car or bike in the garage, at my desk at work (low volume), showing friends videos etc. The G2 works for the most...

    Thinking of selling off G2 for HTC One M8, Thoughts?

    I went and looked at the M8 and also liked it, but didn't care for it being longer. The G2 is the largest I want for a phone and appreciate the lightweight...I've never once felt like the G2 was going to break and it didn't after being dropped (with a thin case) twice. To me, the M8 does does...

    I can't send a picture through my text messeging??

    This is the first I've heard of this issue; in fact, stock messaging has improved for me with kit Kat by properly sorting group messaging...good to hear ATT is taking care of you, at least. posted from LG G2

    LG G2: Dynamic notification

    Ever since the stock app started to support group messaging on AT&T after KK update, I got rid of textra, since it now does every thing I need. One other thing it does is displays and reads aloud texts on my vehicle's navigation system, and allows me to reply with voice input. Non of the others...

    LG G2 - GPS Issues

    My GPS prior to kit Kat was good, very useable and now is garbage. On Google maps, it gives initially location, but fails to update the position or does so a minute later; same goes for other app which require GPS input. On a side note, my data/internet hangs all of the time and fails to load...

    LG G2: GPS problem is annoying. Are they fixing it with Kit Kat update?

    Ever since KK, my GPS either takes forever to update or updates, but is not even remotely accurate. It could be partially due to the app I'm using, but now doesn't obtain position inside using triangulation like it used to. I'm blaming Google service as it sometimes runs longer than it should...

    LG G2: Touch Screen Issues?

    Most people with the erratic screen issue have just exchanged theirs and it fixed the problem. I don't see why your new phone wouldn't work....it's early and maybe I missed something in your post 😴
