Another issue I'd been having is the phone seems to keep jumping in and out of "car mode". A little googling shows that this is due to a fault in the usb connector. Perhaps this is causing the landscape mode?

I've had my M8 for about a year now and I can't recall ever having this feature but with the Google Now launcher, if I'm on the desktop and I rotate my phone to view in wide screen, the desktop switches to landscape mode. It was always something that was available in apps, but I just don't...

I know! It's so tempting!

Coming from an HTC on Tmo's network, I've run into an issue where using wireless calling MMS messages wouldn't work on alternate messaging apps (for example Google messenger instead of the pre-installed one). Does anyone have this issue with the Nexus 6? I know it's a "pure Android" device but...

No cases, no overheating, or anything like that. Sometimes it seems like a crash in whatever launcher I'm using (Typically used Google Now, but just switched to Nova to see if it helped). Other times it'll happen when I hit the application switcher button and it takes a few seconds to open...

I've been an Android switcher for the past 8 months. Currently using a T-Mobile HTC One M8 and I can honestly say that Android is a better OS for me...when it's working. The problem I'm having is periodically the phone comes to a screeching halt. It's like something is sitting in the background...

I can't honestly say that the Lollipop update made things worse, but they definitely are there. It's really the random pauses or when the phone comes to a screeching halt for a few seconds that kills me. I definitely like the additions in the latest version of Sense, but I really prefer the...

I hear that 5.1 did make a big difference, but of course no one's reviewed the phone post lolipop. Have you guys noticed any delays when opening the application switcher or delays when trying to bring up the keyboard? These are two of my biggest gripes with my current phone.

I've had the HTC One M8 since September and while I do like this phone, the random lagginess and stutters are driving me insane. Bundle that with the terrible camera (thought I could deal with this) and it's making this phone long in the tooth. Needless to say I'm done with HTC. I'm looking to...

Most likely no. Don't get me wrong, I love this phone. But the camera is just bad. If they had a model with a decent camera, my response would be a resounding YES!, but alas they don't. The phone is a really good phone. Super fast, looks great, sounds great and feels great, but if you like...

That made perfect sense, and that's what I'm trying to get. However, when I'm in a hangout and that hangout gets a new message, I get a notification.

I'm sorry if this has been asked but I can't find the answer anywhere else. I love the google hangouts app, however it's insanely annoying to get a notification every. single. message. I understand this behavior when the phone screen is off or if I'm in another app, but this happens while I'm...

I've had my M8 for about a week and a half ( coming from an iPhone 4s) and I've come to this conclusion as well. It definitely has it's shortcomings, only 4MP and HDR can be easily over exposed, but I've been able to take some damn good shots with this phone. neo has it right in that Apple has...

I've not had issues launching the app. That typically opens immediately. The issue I'd seen was stuttering and bogging down while the camera app is open. Usually it would happen in lower/poor light conditions. That being said 95% of the time touching the shutter button grabs the picture right...

Thanks man! I'm loving it. So much faster than my old iPhone 4s. I'm still a tad iffy on the camera, though, so there's a chance I may return it for the G3. However I've been able to take some pretty good pics with the camera as is. Outside of the camera this phone is a screamer. Good looks and...
