    Andrew's review mentioned some lag- anyone getting it?

    My phone lags brutally. S6 128gb edge , gold, verizon. I had a MOto X 2014 that so far just blows the S6 out of the water with performance. I get slow registers to tap, extremely slow keyboard, slow loading in apps, almost everything. I have to restart the phone 6 times per day and it is speedy...

    How Do You Like Your Moto X?

    I'm coming from a Galaxy S4 and I am shocked with how much quicker this phone is. I mean everything is lightning fast compared to the S4. And, despite the battery being 300 mAH smaller, I'm getting much, much better battery life with the X. ONly thing I want to figure out now is how to root. I...

    Worth an upgrade from an S4? And, what is Pure Edition

    I'm on Verizon, but i purchased the X for Verizon for full price (well, minus the cyber monday discount) through the Moto Maker website. Does this come preloaded with Verizon bloatware?

    Worth an upgrade from an S4? And, what is Pure Edition

    Hey guys I have an S4. Wondering how much of an improvement I could expect with an 2014 X. I've been using Nova launcher and am rooted but am ecxcited for a more stock experience + lollipop. Also, what is the Pure Edition? I didn't see it on the Moto Builder website. It it simply a phone...

    Battery Life Help

    Hey guys, any idea on this? During the day when I'm at work or using my phone a few times an hour my batter drops anywhere from 15 - 20% per hour. A good day I will get 5 hours out of it. At night, with the phone screen dark and just sitting on my nightstand, I will burn about 8 - 10% per...

    Rooted / Safestrap S4 - Unable to shut down

    I have a rooted / safestrap Verizon S4 running VRUFNC5. I can't power this phone down. When I do, it just restarts again. Pulling the battery and putting it back in automatically restarts the phone as well once it's connected to power. It's bizarre. It's like I can't shut it down, it just...

    Warranty Return / Question on Root

    Interesting, thanks. VRUAMDK was (I think) the original firmware on all S4's.

    Warranty Return / Question on Root

    Hey guys, i have a Verizon S4. It's still running VRUAMDK. I have rooted it and done a decent number of mods (changing color on the drop down, removing notifications, getting Google Wallet working, etc, installing the xposed patch to prevent popups from asking for system update, etc. However...

    Using Lightroom with Android

    Hey guys I take a lot of pics with my DSLR but also with my phone. Every so often I like to copy in all my mobile pics to my computer using Lightroom which I use for organization. However; every time I go to import, it pulls in all images on my SD card. This includes things like icons for...

    Google Voice not working on S4??

    Did you previously use Google Voice? DId you dial the right numbers ( I forget what they are, *72 or something) to get the appropriate forwarding setup?

    S4 on sale at Wirefly

    Every wirefly thread out there you have posted in despite Kim and others commenting to the contrarty. IMO you are just starting to raise flags without much justification. Yes, there is fine print. Part of the issue with ordering from 3rd parties (wirefly / etc.) is that you need to make sure...

    Anyone have any updates about their shipping dates from simplexity yet? C'mon GS4!!!! Waiting for my Newegg order to ship.

    Preorder updates..

    Ditto. Interestingly, I had previously preorderd from Wirefly (which I cancelled) - and Wirefly's page already had carrier approval checked off and just waiting for inventory. I wonder if they put Newegg behind Wirefly orders in the Simplexity queu.
