    Battery draining faster with Spark

    If band 41 is set as top priority and there is no band 41 in your area, maybe the phone continually scans for a band that isn't there and that is causing extra battery drain. That's just a guess. So far, I haven't noticed a difference in battery life on my G2.

    Sprint's LG G2: Tri-Band LTE aka SPRINT SPARK

    Re: Sprint's LG G2: Tri-Band LTE aka SPRINT SPARK-Update released. Sorry to hear that. Btw, did you mean to type that you can't get your home tower, band 25, to connect? Band 26 is the 800mHz LTE frequency. I haven't heard of any G2s picking up b26 since the update, let alone prior to the...

    Sprint's LG G2: Tri-Band LTE aka SPRINT SPARK

    Re: Sprint's LG G2: Tri-Band LTE aka SPRINT SPARK-Update released. Reset the band priorities: 41(1), 25(0), 26(0). Band 41 is capable of the fastest speeds in addition to probably being less crowded than B25.

    Sprint's LG G2: Tri-Band LTE aka SPRINT SPARK

    Re: Sprint's LG G2: Tri-Band LTE aka Sprint Spark From what I'm reading, the G2's Spark update is in final testing and it's being run on Android 4.2.2. So pobably no kit-kat with this Spark update.

    What do u hate most about the G2

    I thought I read that among Kit-Kat features, there was the ability to hide on screen buttons. Hopefully, this applies to the G2 and that we get the update soon. Incipio, among others, has some great case solutions for this phone.

    Themes

    I downloaded and use a combination of "Biz" theme and "My HD Wallpapers" from the LG Smartstore. Problem is I lose the transparent nav bar. If I go back to the stock theme, I get the transparent nav bar but I lose the "Biz" icons. How can I use the "Biz" icons in the stock theme?

    Sprint MSL

    I was very worked up about not having triband lte out of the box and was intent on enabling the radios myself to take advantage of Chicago's supposed network maturity, but since activating on 11/9 I have had good data and prolific lte coverage just about everywhere I go. I haven't read many...

    Lockscreen Notifications

    I had DC and I ditched it for some reason. I think it was over something as superficial as the look of the clock and weather vs. Android weather. I'm going to look into it again. Is there a way to run two widgets, or blend two widgets on a single (stock) lockscreen?

    Lockscreen Notifications

    I may look into the 3rd party lockscreens. NiLS and Lockscreen Notifications widgets aren't what I'm looking for, apparently. It seems I have to use their clock and nothing else. When my lockscreen shortcuts are at the bottom, the notifications are small single line text that can't be swiped...

    Lockscreen Notifications

    I'm currently running the Android Weather widget on my lockscreen and I'd like to get call, message and email notifications under that widget. Same screen, wake from sleep, if possible. Control of the LED would be nice too. Are there any notification widgets/apps that allow me to keep my...

    Wi-Fi Direct, DLNA, Miracast, Chromecat; So confused

    Thanks for the suggestion. What would be the best hardware solution though? From what I have seen, the PS3 seems to have sufficient capability to stream pictures, video and music from a pc (I assume it can do the same from the G2). The storage is a nice added value as well. The thing is, I...
