I hate Mavericks too. You'd think after being out a year they would have fixed all the stupid stuff. I just upgraded a couple weeks ago, may go back to Snow Leopard. For now, I'm plugging in the G3 with a USB and using Android File Transfer to get stuff off my sd card.

I got Diskovery working (love it), but I finally got my SD card in and it only sees internal storage, not the card. Did you pay for the "Write Support" add-on? Maybe this would let me get to the SC card?

Mine also is hard to put in. Thought about returning it and getting a different phone, as I don't want to break the internals. But I think it's been getting easier. Mine takes only about an hour to charge from say 10% to 100%, which suprised me. Using the charger that came in the box.

Love that Steampunk music widget. What is it? Are you using GO themes/etc? I really like my Nova.

I got the (Gold) Spigen slim armor and the Verizon glass screen protector. they fit together just fine. You can, however fit a fingernail between the edge of the case and the beginning of the screen protector.

Without plugging into the charging plug on the bottom the phone is unstable and will fall out. I took another look online and may get this, if the diameter of the suction cup/footprint will fit my area (installing vertically, i.e. inbetween the vents): Amazon.com: iOttie One Touch XL Windshield...

Finally got a car with bluetooth, and got a mount for my phone. The mount has top and bottom bars to hold the phone, but what also keeps it steady is always putting the phone on (connecting it to) the USB plug at the bottom (which is attached to the mount, if you follow me). I'm worried that...

I have Nova regular and am currently doing the Screen Off by tapping in the notifcation bar. Can you double-tap on a blank space on the screen with Nova Prime?

This worked perfectly for me. Took 2 minutes. I'm Snow Leopard, will see how things go when I upgrade to Mavericks in a week or so. EDIT: It worked, I can see the phone, but can't actually move files over to the phone's internal storage (say, wallpaper to the folder where all the other...

I like the camera - takes pictures quick (less so with the flash on), and I *really* like holding the shutter down and taking multiple pics (without immediately having to pick the "best" on like on the S5), but I really miss manual controls--ISO, brightness, modes like sport/night, etc. I'll see...

I'm using Nova (today at least). I liked their 1X1 Google voice search and search icons. I didn't need a 1X4 widget taking up space that I'm only going to click on to take me somewhere else. The only downside is that double-tap to turn screen off only works if you tap in the notification bar...

I had the M8 for about 10 days, then returned it and am now impatiently waiting for the G3. I like HTC in general (have had two), but the camera just wasn't cutting it for me. The shutter speed (i.e. click, take picture, click, take another picture) was indeed awesome, best I've seen, but the...

Sheesh, sometimes I make things more complex than they need to be. Returned phone back to Verizon on Saturday (within the 14 days), and canceled contract. Now I'm back to my month-to-month on my old Thunderbolt, and can wait worry-free for the G3 to come out...

Well dang it. I got the M8 for its good low light pictures and snappy camera shot latency, but the file size/resolution really ended up being too small for me (I do tend to print out photos). Early reviews for the G3 suggest it's pretty good in low light (better than S5), plus you get the higher...

My Thunderbolt was dying so I upgraded (M8) and signed a new contract about 10 days ago. I know I can return it and exchange for different phone within 10 days (will be doing that this weekend). My question is if there is a limit to how many times I can return/exchange, etc. I want to make until...
