    Switching to Verizon soon - what are standard Pixel deals for that?

    Pre-ordering the phone for Verizon - either via BestBuy or B&H, I'm assuming UNLOCKED is always the better choice? That correct? Got a big ole' question mark when I read this on B&H's website: "This device is unlocked and should work fully with carriers listed below with green bars. Yellow...

    Bluetooth Issues?

    So, just as the rest of us, my Pixel just got updated to Pie. Yay and nay! I like the interface...but, It seems I'm having some issues either with Bluetooth audio or the iHeartRadio app. I have a pair of wireless PowerBeats3 and they have been working flawlessly prior to the upgrade. Post...

    Screen Burn-In

    Hey everyone... Curious if anyone has noticed their Note5 screen being burned in. I was working with my wife's phone last night and upgrading it to Nougat and noticed a very faint static image of her home screen. My first thought is to reach out to VZW to see if they'd be willing to swap...

    Pixel 7.1.2 update

    Done! No issues at all.. Not much of a sideloader myself, but, this was pretty easy. I'm [easily] impressed. Now that's done, I'm sure VZW will release it tomorrow!

    Pixel 7.1.2 update

    Anyone on 7.1.2 Beta get the update from VZW Yet? I really don't want to, but, I'm seriously considering dropping from the beta. Does sideloading "K" work from BETA?

    Pixel 7.1.2 update

    Re: 7.1.2 update I sure hope this isn't because VZW is trying to integrate their new launcher/app called AppFlash (I think that's it..). Such garbage they are supposedly rolling out to all customers. Also on 7.1.2 beta and Verizon and have not received update.

    Updated today, as well, and the resulting version match emcis's post above... I believe there is no concern about the legitimacy of this update... Would like to see more info from Verizon on specifics.

    WARNING..... I just upgraded my S5 to Android 6.... If you have previously set up a lock-screen pattern and/or PIN but DO NOT CURRENTLY use it, refresh your memory on what they are. I did not have lock-screen security enabled prior to upgrading but post-upgrade, it was set. Thanks...

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon dusoccer10 - So, it sounds like you can retain UDP on Verizon simply by ordering the phone but not using the SIM card that comes with it. Because the newer phones GS6 and IP6 use a smaller SIM that the current phones on the market...
