    Mobile data switching itself off?

    Hi guys, My girlfriend has the xperia z and it keeps switching the mobile data connection off. I have set data usage limits but she is nowhere near reaching even the warning level. Has anyone else had this issue? Cheers

    Here's a rather nice special edition McLaren engine manifold. One of a kind we have produced for a customer. Photo was taken on Samsung Galaxy S3.

    Galaxy S3 (rooted) or Nexus 4?

    Thank you. All really good advice. I should probably add the caveat that I am from the UK and not at all bothered about LTE as yet and. I like my carrier (o2 - yes I know they have issues from time to time) and I don't want to change. I think the design of the nexus is really good and the fact...

    Galaxy S3 (rooted) or Nexus 4?

    Hi guys, I'm deciding which phone to buy. I'm really stuck between these two. If I go for the S3 I'll be running it rooted with CM10 and if I go for the Nexus 4 I'll be keeping it on stock Jelly Bean (rooted). Its a tough choice. Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance. Sent from my...

    Rooted and ROM'd Incredible S

    So far the battery life has increased considerably. At the end of the day with moderate use the battery is around 40% with Sense I was usually left with 10%. That'ws not to say that there arent any bugs. You lose the self tilting capacitive buttons. They just stay the same way up when you...

    I have a problem with my Desire S

    We got the phone back from repair yesterday. They replaced the handset in the end. Its running the same build of software, I think there was a hardware issue with the one we sent back. It might be worth returning your device to the carrier. Sorry I couldn't be much help.

    I have a problem with my Desire S

    Rooted and ROM'd Incredible S

    Hey Guys, Just to let you know I used the AlphaRevX tool to gain S-OFF on my UK Incredible S. It took a couple of goes but I got there in the end. It's very simple to do. One thing you need to make sure you do is uninstall the HTC Sync program once you have used it once to sync your phone, it...

    Problems already

    Hi there, I have this phone as well. It takes about a week for the battery to fully open up and give you the best performance. I have found that the battery will drop down a fair amount by lunchtime, but you will find it tends to plateau around the 60% mark for the rest of the day. With...

    Incredible S on VZW

    It isnt LTE.I already own the Incredible S and its only HSPA (3G). You wont struggle for speed though, its a lot faster than you would think. The other bonus of not haveing LTE is the battery will last long enough that you dont need to carry three batteries with you to get through the day.

    Root?

    I was thinking the same thing, but I have to say. I love the HTC Inc S design, plus it has a better camera and you have the expandable memory. Once there is a Root & ROM for it, you can run the same stock Android experience as you would with a Nexus S. The only thing lacking then would be NFC...

    Root?

    Anyone know if there is a root in the works for the Incredible S? I want GB and I dont wan't to wait. So if anyone knows of a root and ROM could you point me in the right direction? I am hoping there will be a Cyanogenmod for it soon. Thank you.
