    Are you still happy with your G5?

    No problems, works great, battery still good. Best FP sensor. Always been in an OtterBox. It is my regular, always with me. Bought it Used, just over a year ago, came with a spare battery and standalone charger that turned out to be for the G4. Otherwise a great purchase. I bought a used Note 4...

    Anyone experience display burn-in on their LG G5?

    I use the always on display, but I keep the phone face down, in a closed zipper case, or in my pocket, so the proximity sensor shuts off the display. No burn in showing.

    Anyone Own a Note 4 that Doesn't Crash/Reboot?

    ATT Note 4, stock, 6.0.1 (SPL 8/1/'16). Original battery. I rarely have to restart the device. At this time, I have not tried to install an SD card. This is a spare device I bought a few months ago. The story was that it was 1 1/2 yrs old, and spent one year on the shelf. It spends most of its...

    How can i find out who my factory unlocked note 4 is threw

    If the phone is Factory Unlocked, it should not be tied to any carrier. Search your model # to see what carriers it is compatible with. Do you have a SIM card? What happens when you install it?

    Power button wonkiness

    Try pressing and holding the power button slightly longer. The quick press and release does not work for me either.

    How do i make an emergency contact number accesible to emergency responders on my LG G5

    Thank you. This should be a highlighted supplement leaflet that comes with your new phone, or a non skipable step in the new phone setup tutorial. I don't think any users have this setup on their phones. I had the lost phone info on my lock screen, but didn't know I could also setup "ICE" info...

    Why I'm not getting the G6, and keeping my G5.

    I really don't believe there is a gain in upgrading your device every year. If you wait for at least every other year, you may gain a better appreciation for the incremental changes.(Windows Phone is not a glowing example of this philosophy, but Android is) Today, assuming you have 2G RAM, a...

    Why the hate for the LG G5?

    Re: why the hate? The phone itself is Great. Swappable battery, SD card slot, large screen, great specs. I don't need any expensive modules. You shouldn't be disappointed. Unless your problem with the S6 is with the OS. The OEM junk is a given we all have to accept. If you are not happy, try...

    What do I lose? What do I gain?

    I picked up a G5 yesterday, because it has the replaceable battery and SD card slot. Used, mint condition, spare battery kit and Otterbox. Decent price. Not holding it's value based on the Modular accessory concept? That is just stupid. I don't need any extra modules. Their loss, my gain...

    Note4 Newbie

    I got one from Craigslist a couple weeks ago. $200 Like new. There are several available, but be very careful. I have bought, sold and traded more than 10 devices there and have not gotten burned yet, but unprepared buyers get burned there everyday.
