    Do you use a case?

    What's the benefit of a glass screen protector over plastic film? I prefer a non glare finish.

    Best value phone for Tmobile service via $45 Straight Talk plan?

    Not a single reply... :confused: Is there something wrong with my question? Am I using the wrong forum? Should I go to a different site? What's a good value in a service in the Philadelphia market? What would you choose for a smallish handset to work on that service? :-\

    Best value phone for Tmobile service via $45 Straight Talk plan?

    Arrgh... Choices-good & bad... Will pay one Million dollars for your opinion... something like a 4G Kit Kat-equipped LG Optimus L70 or Win 8.1 Nokia Lumia 635 (under $100)

    Random reboots

    Happy New Year and Update: I am thankful for all the input and would likely be more diligent in troubleshooting it I thought the OV was viable for everyday use. I have since tried the Safe Mode, kind of for testing purposes, Power+Menu worked just fine. Having tried a second SD card which did...

    Random reboots

    BD, thanks for the quick reply and suggestions. Yes its a VM O V (vm670) Phone was bought in fall 2011. Removed SD card and rebooted. I reinserted it and will see if reboots stop. I'm guessing you meant replace the card if reboots continue:)? I should run it for a few days and replace the...

    Random reboots

    My stock V rebooted itself 3x in the last week.Early this morning it happened when I was not using the phone. When I looked at it the welcome screen was showing; out continued to boot okay. Later this am, it played halfway through a video then the"cannot be played message" appeared. Shortly...

    I finally had to do it.

    Good for you, AO! You deserve it. Leaning toward that Metro plan myself. VM 3g feels more and more like dialup. For a few $ more/ month for 4G, plus coverage map indicates I'll get better data and voice reception at home. Seems like an easy decision.

    To Root or Not to Root

    He's baaack... A while back I read with interest Rooting doesn't sound like its for me... 20 years ago maybe... not now. My phone is barely functioning for essentials like tasks, since Google Play "forced" me to install Play (memsuck) Services. I tried to install a visual app like google...

    Troubleshooting charging issues

    Well, yours truly left the LG charger/data cable with the LG travel/wall charger in a safe place. Three and a half hours away. I'll be getting it back within a few months. In the meantime, my trusty (up until now) generic car charger with proper micro usb wired connector, in sub-freezing...

    To Root or Not to Root

    I've read a bit here (including THE BASICs) and there about rooting, though honestly, it's been a while. I'd like to hear from fellow Optimus LG670 users on the pro's and con's. VM support recently updated/refreshed network connection a few weeks ago, which seemed to improve internet...

    Android calendar does not sync to laptop.

    The fix was embarrassingly easy- Clear Data in Calendar and Calendar Storage. I found detailed instructions here for another calendar app: Problems with Google Calendar Syncing . The sync restarted immediately (in Optimus V time ;) and appointments which disappeared reappeared as I watched the...
