AT&T sent me this update today. I swear everything about my phone is sluggish now. I know it's almost 3 generations old now but prior to this update it was fine.

I haven't read all 91 pages of this thread. I have an unblemished iPhone 5 as well as an iPhone 6 Plus, also in good condition, either of which seems like a valid trade-in for this offer. Is Samsung paying out the full discount for undamaged phones or are they screwing people? Or is it too...

I still owe $500 to AT&T for my S7E which was the next best thing once the N7 was killed once and for all. I'll wait and see the iPhone 8 reveal to decide what to do. It would basically cost me $1000 out of pocket plus the trade-in (I have an iPhone 5 or an iPhone 6+ I could trade). I almost...

Samsung Pay just does not work for me. The last time it worked correctly was at a Walgreen's. It's failed to work in the past week at both Whole Foods and Dunkin Doughnuts so I'll probably no longer even try since I feel like an ***** standing there waving my phone at a register, holding up...

ArmorShield + Speck Candyshell Grip works great. Make sure you install the protector perfectly.

Never works for me at CVS.

I saw this on Amazon - did you get the magnetic closure? Does it feel pretty sturdy? How bulky is the phone in the case (still front-pocket friendly?). Thanks!

Yahoo uses two-step validation like Google, but I guess the implementation is different. I'd prefer not to have to use multiple apps for email. My current solution is using the built-in Accounts for Exchange and Google contacts/calendars, and I'm currently test-driving AOL's Alto email...

I know Nine will do exchange but it doesn't support Gmail or Yahoo so it means I have to rely on multiple email clients, so not really the solution I'm looking for. Cloud Magic seems to work OK, just waiting to see how it does on battery life for a day - still I won't pony up for $50/year.

The awfulness of the email experience on Android is making me miss at least that one aspect of iOS... The stock iOS email application does it all. It supports Exchange/ActiveSync, two-step authentication (Yahoo! email), Gmail and countless others. It does so seamlessly without drama. Set it...

Re: Process called "10256" using 25% of CPU Thanks, that's what I suspected.

Process called "10256" using 25% of CPU I've been installing/uninstalling email applications today trying to find one that I like for all three accounts. At any rate, after getting Outlook installed (works so far) I noticed that there was an application called 10256 running at the top of the...

iPhones just work, the way Apple wants them to - decisions are taken away from the end user on look & feel. You have to be OK with that. I was but switched to Samsung at least for now to see what I'm missing, and primarily to take advantage of AT&T's BOGO when adding my wife to my account...

I'm using the IQShield case friendly wet-install screen protector and the Speck Candyshell grip, so far so good. I followed the install instructions to the letter, let the phone sit turned off for over 12 hours and it seems to work. There is less than a 1mm difference between the edge of the...

How do turn this setting off - I'm not finding anything that looks like this setting... Thanks!
