ZTE Grand X4 is GSM so it should work on Freedom mobile. DTEK50 has a CDMA model as well as GSM. I'm not aware of any reason the GSM model DTEK50 wouldn't work on Freedom network though as long as it has the correct APN settings. I don't have firsthand access to the Freedom network or a DTEK50...

These are definitely soft keys. They can be really useful in a situation where part of your digitizer is unresponsive to touch. I used an app called Handy Soft Keys on another Android when the the bottom corner of an Android was damaged. I'm not familiar with the particular one pictured in your...

No, but I know those bridges go on for what seems like forever! These two are about 200 miles east, and connect Gulf Breeze to Pensacola Beach, Florida.

Between Bridges... Shot December 2014 with my retired Nexus 4 using Google Camera in HDR mode, edited to b/w and cropped with Aviary.

Captured with Moto G 2014 in HDR and edited in Snapseed. Just east of Pensacola, home of the Blue Angels, an iconic Douglas A-4 Skyhawk is frozen in flight. These planes were considered key in U.S. conflicts including the Vietnam War, and they continue to capture the eye as well as our...

Are you able to hard boot into recovery mode? Press and hold the Volume Down and Up buttons simultaneously then press the Lock/Power button for a few seconds. This should restart your Moto G to a black screen with a boot menu. You can then select boot options using the volume down button and...
