    Anyone switching back to iPhone?

    Re: Anyone switching back to Iphone? Ive got a GN2 and recently purchased a broken i4s from a friend to fix and sell. After the repairs I played with it extensively and found many "features" infuriating. The keyboard is absolute junk compared to Swiftkeys on my note2. The screen, which looks...

    Who has gotten 4.3 on the Sprint Galaxy Note 2?

    Same here. Ive had the screen slowness/lag since the update as well. Home button slow to turn screen on and the music constantly skips with the stock music player. I did a factory reset and the music still skips. This is infuriating since this update made my most used feature of the phone...

    EVO 4G resell price post iphone 5?

    Amen to that. The LG was a POS. I had 5 of them (refurbs) and finally bought what I should have, an EVO. Honestly, I love the EVO. I cant say enough good things about it. Screw the iphone and its non flash capable platform..

    Rebooting itself

    I finally got fed up with the rebooting issues and just bought an EVO. Now that the EVO is up and running I have solid proof how horrible the Opt S is at keeping a cell signal. My morning commute of about 20 miles, mostly rural, would have 3-5 times when the call was lost with no signal. The EVO...

    Rebooting itself

    I found more helpful hints and advice on the many android forums. Sprint CS is hit or miss. Last night I had a 1x signal in a known 3g area. I switched to airplane mode (to get it to go back into 3g)and the phone froze up and shutdown. I called sprint after this and they are supposedly sending...

    Rebooting itself

    Mine did the same thing at my workplace, which also has a horrible signal. Turning the phone off was the only fix for me.

    Rebooting itself

    I really dont think battery temps have anything to do with it but I may be wrong. The other day I had wifi off, I turned it on, and literally, the instant wifi was on, the phone began rebooting. Today I forgot to turn wifi off as I left work (where I use wifi on my phone) and the phone just...

    Rebooting itself

    Well you are correct about the wifi radio causing this problem. Ive been keeping wifi off to see what happens and having just turned wifi on, the phone did the usual screen dimming and then powered itself off requiring a battery pull to get it to turn on. Ive also had it shut itself off when...

    Rebooting itself

    Not sure due to my frustration level when the reboot occurs. I know that in the past the phone has shutoff due to battery temps. This is the 4th LG opt that Ive had and the last 3 have all done this. Ive kept the wifi always on on each of them so this may be some progress. Ive contemplated...

    Rebooting itself

    I do get the black screen but havent checked whether or not the 4 buttons illuminate. Regardless, you may be on to something speaking of the wifi causing the reboots. Previously, I always kept wifi on and found that the times when it would reboot would be when I was leaving or entering a...

    Rebooting itself

    Hard reformatted yesterday. Was already rebooting itself about 2 hours afterward. This phone absolutely hates low signal areas. My previous workplace has a horrendous signal and I was there for less than 5 minutes and it vibrated in my hand and shutoff. I was there for a half hour and in that...

    Rebooting itself

    I just bought my 3rd sd card. All have had issues with the phone rebooting. I've tried 3 different batteries as well. Nothing has worked.

    Rebooting itself

    Stock everything except adw launcher. No root. Ive had 3 Opt S's do this which is why I started this thread. TIA

    Rebooting itself

    Im curious as to how common of a problem a random reboot is with this phone? Im on my 4th Opt S and 3 out of those 4 were replaced due to the phone randomly rebooting itself. After about 2 weeks with the most recent "S" it too will just out of nowhere turn itself off and require a battery pull...
