I'm looking for a relatively cheap 7 or 8 inch tablet. The vast majority of my usage would be document and ebook reading. The other 20% would be the occasional streaming video. I'm looking to stay under $60. Amazon is running a sale on their Kindle Fire tablets for only $40 right now. While the...

I could really use some help with this. I had a phone die on me and I've gone back to my old Galaxy S3 which I haven't used in a number of years. It's still on stock Android 4.1.2 (the last firmware before they implemented KNOX) and is experiencing a lot of performance issues. I've tried...

The phone that I've been using for the last couple of years has died and I'm finding myself back on the AT&T Galaxy S3 for the time being while I figure out what to do. It's been almost 2 years since I've used the phone. It's still on Android 4.1.2. I remember that I intentionally did not...

T-Mobile branded LG G3 (D851) unlocked- which US carriers does it support I have a T-Mobile LG G3 (D851) that is carrier unlocked. Can anyone tell me if it supports 4G or LTE on Verizon or Sprint? I'm assuming that it should be fully compatible with AT&T/Cricket due to the fact that they are...

How to sideload a purchased app onto an unsupported device I fully realize that what I'm trying to do is not supported and so I won't be broken hearted if it doesn't end up working but I thought I'd ask the question here. I purchased Lego Star Wars Saga from the Amazon App Store on my Nexus 7...

So I gave it a try but the problem continued. I finally did a factory reset, which seems to have fixed the problem (at least, it hasn't recurred in the last couple of days. Unfortunately, now my battery is draining like crazy... it was really good before I did the factory reset but now I'm...

I’ve had my T-mobile LG G3 for about a month now. Up until last week, it was working fine. Then, suddenly, a few days ago, I realized that I hadn’t received a call that I was expecting, I looked at my phone and noticed that I had full signal strength and no missed calls/notifications. However...

How much compatibility is there with standard Android apps? Aren't you limited to apps that have been recompiled for the Atom processor? I don't imagine there are very many in Google play store.

FYI, the Nexus 7 on Groupon appears to be the 2012 model, not the 2013.

Thanks for all the great replies. This gives me some options. The Lenovo IdeaTab seems pretty good with the exception of 512 MB of RAM. Not sure how much of an impact that would have. The 2012 Nexus seems to be the way to go but then just a little more would get the 2013 edition. I've heard that...

So I'm in need of a 7 to 10 in. tablet to entertain a young child during a series of upcoming road trips over the next couple of months. I don't want to spend a ton of money and am not looking for anything high-end. It would be used primarily for video playback and maybe some light kiddy games...

Just wondering how this turned out. I'm in a similar dilemma. Were you able to sideload the Samsung camera and gallery apps?

I'm using an unlocked AT&T S3 on T-Mobile and other than a few minor battery drain issues with "Android System," I don't have any problems. I'd like to update the phone, however, I'm hesitant to do so, due to the various battery drain issues with the latest 4.3 update from Samsung. In addition...
