No-go. :-\ I have downloaded "Push Notification Test" from the play store and it fails on Step 4 (actually receiving the push notification).

Sorry--forgot to mention that I do not use the battery saver feature. Great suggestion, though! Yes I am pulling my hair out at this point. I can normally diagnose these things pretty well but this one does have me stumped. I'll do a little research into your suggestion--thank you! If it...

Re: Mobile Data = No Push Notifications This should have happened with a factory reset, but I tried it anyway. No luck! I appreciate the suggestions, though! I came across that last night, too, and gave it a shot. It doesn't seem to make a difference. :-\ Good suggestion, though.

Re: Mobile Data = No Push Notifications Update: The Verizon rep went through everything that I did and saw the same results. He started to set me up with a replacement (refurbished) device, but I requested a new SIM card first just to see if it was bugging out. He installed a new SIM card...

Hey guys, I am having an odd problem that I first noticed earlier this week. I have been through a ton of settings and tried everything I could think of, but thus far I haven't had any luck. I wanted to see if anyone else has had or is having a similar issue. My problem happens with...

Let me preface by saying that I absolutely love the G3! I've only had minor issues that I'm slowly figuring out. One of these deals with quiet mode. I have it turned on and it works great. My issue is that every morning when I wake up I have a notification telling me that I have quiet mode...

Hi Guys, I've looked all over the place but have not been able to find a solution. Searching is a bit difficult because my question is so narrow (yet it brings up tons of other search results). I just purchased a Note 10.1 for work purposes. I would like to keep the standard 4-digit security...

Hi guys! I have always been a guy who runs his phones naked without any issues. I've just always preferred not having a screen protector or case on my device. The other day I decided to order the Incipio Feather case to keep at work. Most of the time I'm at my desk, but I wanted something...

I told one of the Verizon reps that I wanted to test the power button placement on the One when I was in the store. He grabbed a brand new One out of the box for me to handle, and the only reason he did so was because it had protective film covering the entire phone.

This thread needs more dog. :)

A few more with overhead factory lighting. Still loving the depth of field. Again...everything set to "Auto" mode and no editing done. Showing the "Tap to Focus" feature in the last two.

A little practice with the camera goes a long way. The hardest part is holding the camera steady, and for some people that's harder than others. I'm dumping quite a few pictures here....all of them are straight off the camera (no editing). A couple random shots taken at work with pretty poor...

In! Mmm look at that sexy back:

The Moto X is a huge step up from the GNex. It is a 1.5-year-newer device, but the performance difference is amazing. For me the GNex switches between being smooth and being laggy, and the X is snappier than the GNex ever was. I'm curious to see how the X and the new Droid lineup stand the...

Posted this in another thread. Thought it was a neat picture. Taken inside with mediocre lighting. Another with mediocre lighting (one kitchen light). Very sharp. This one was taken at work with very, very crappy lighting. I'm amazed at how well this turned out. Cool texture...
