    Case for Nexus 7: with or w/o a stand?

    I would recommend with a stand if you intend to watch media in the unit, then you don't have to hold it the whole time or figure out a way to prop it up. I bought the Blurex case from Amazon for $10.00. It also has the magnetic cover that will shut off the screen when closed. Here's the link...

    Unlocked International Note won't turn on after freeze!

    I was using my international, unlocked Note to video my son's baseball game when it froze. I tried the stop button in the app, the home button, the back button but no response, just frozen video on the screen. I was sorta low on battery and I know that the video sucks battery so I just did a...

    galaxy note with at&t

    So I have had the Note for about a week and I popped a SIM that I had from a non-smartphone into the Note. The SIM was from a device that I had on my AT&T family plan. I'm paying $9.99 a month for it ( I would guess you could add a line to any plan, but the family plan has the advantage of...

    Any US users?

    Wifi speeds are crazy fast. Speed test says 23MB down, 6MB up connected to my wireless N AP on a Comcast network connection. Wish the 3G/HSDPA+ could get over 1.2MB down and 500kb up :-(

    Any US users?

    Works great - the Samsung BT radio is superior to HTC, I had all kinds of issues in my Acura with the HTC phone staying connected, including dropping sync during calls. The Samsung is awesome and when "in a Call" mode there is a button to press if I want to engage or disengage the BT during a...

    Any US users?

    I got mine yesterday from techno.trading.house off of eBay for &759 (free shipping). It took about a week to get delivery (problems with customs they said ;-)). Brand new, perfect phone. Early review is that it is awesome - looking for that middle ground between an iPad and a smartphone - this...

    galaxy note with at&t

    I popped an AT&T SIM card from a non-smartphone I had on my family plan. The data works, 3G and Hsdpa+ but the speeds suck! Does anyone know how to modify the settings, or the account plan for the phone to get faster speeds? The WiFi rocks and for the most part is what I use, but when out and...

    Great deal: Samsung Desktop Dock & Car Mount for $18

    Went into the Store and they had the desktop but not the car dock. So I told them about the deal and the guy went online and put both in the cart and the price came up correctly for the bundle. Free shipping so $17.99 for both! Thanks to all on this thread for helping find this killer deal.:)

    Unstable Bluetooth

    I have similar issues with my EVO so I think this is a Froyo issue. If an incoming call comes I can hear it ringing in my ear but when I hit the answer button on my phone the audio goes to the handset. Othertimes I will be connected and a call will come in and not ring the Bluetooth device...

    OEM HTC Snap On Case

    Randomevo, thanks for the info - I just ordered 2 of these cases from Meritline.com for $19.99 (for both). I have a Seidio Innocase II and in less than a month the thing is already broken! It's right where the 2 pieces come together, near the volume rocker. I will be going back to the Sprint...

    Chinese Ebay batteries...Huge thumbs up

    I've had these for about 3 weeks and can say that they are great! Batteries last as long, or longer than the stock red batt. I have been primarily wall charging all 3 batts, and have been rotating them consistently to make sure they are used equally. To date, this has been an AWESOME...
