It might be the area you are in. I am in a very fringe area. Glad your Turbo is good for you and wish mine was good for me. I guess thats why you often see YMMV. BTW I liked my Droid Maxx so much I bought a second as back up. I wonder if it could be the back? I bought the 64GB with Ballistic back?

To me looking at -dBm is useless. I live in a fringe area so I just use the phone. The one that does not drop calls wins. The best phones for not dropping calls for me in my area are the Verizon Droid Maxx and Note 4 on Verizon with Note 4 being the best. Turbo drops every call. Turbo has...

Coming from a Droid Maxx that had excellent radios to the Turbo was a huge disappointment. I live in a fringe area the same fringe area that the Maxx was good in the turbo can not hold on to a call. Every call I get drops on the Turbo but the Maxx does good. I must say for me the Turbo has...

Ok how do I find the "Galaxy Apps" app I see on your home screen? I have side loaded a couple APKs supposedly of the "Galaxy Apps" app but they wont install or wont open if they install. I know there is a widget to the galaxy apps but I can't find the app like on your home screen. I am with...

Re: Note 4 How long did u go b4 replacing touchwiz I don't replace Touchwiz but instantly set up Nova Prime. I do on occasion switch back and forth but like Nova better because I can have over lapping widgets, widget padding or not, widgets in back or in front, less or no lag and just more...

I do also but thats not what the OP asked about. I use LG Electronics Tone+ HBS-730s and they work perfect with all the Android phones I have had. Never use wired headsets anymore since trying the LG Tones.

The ones in this link work but the button layout is not as near the apple earbuds as the LG are. Amazon.com: samsung earbuds

The ones in the link below work fine on all my android phones. Amazon.com: Original White LG 3.5mm QuadBeat 2 In-Ear Premium Earphone Headset+Mic for LG G2 D801: Cell Phones & Accessories

To answer the question I would just let it run out but that doesn't happen because when at my desk it rests in a Tylt view wireless charger and at night it rests in a wireless charger. All low battery notifications are turned off. When on the road I just pop in a spare battery each night or...

I'm not sure thats correct. I have bought my last two Samsung phones from Samsung and two out of three Motorola phones from Motorola and Verizon treats them all the same. As long as its a Verizon branded phone it does not have to come from Verizon. I know the Play Store, Samsung, Motorola...

Re: Weak Signal I live in a very fringe area most phones and carriers drop calls and Verizon is the only carrier to have. I don't look at the signal strength readings as they don't matter to me. On the N4 the calls don't drop and are very clear web pages load nicely I do see in the status bar...

I use Nova Prime and on my Droid Turbo I can use the stock widgets that come with the Turbo...so I would assume that the Nova Programers have thought of this and Samsung is blocking it. I say Samsung is blocking it because I use the same carrier on both phones (Turbo and N4) so if Verizon was...

Re: Is anyone else experiencing horrible GPS? When I am out using My Tracks GPS works just as well on GPS only as the high accuracy setting. I really don't think its a network issues. Wish I could tell you what issue it is.

I use mine ever day with My Tracks for walking and it is as good or better as any phone I have had. Overall (phone wifi gps data) reception is the best of any phone I have had. I would exchange it.

I also have the N 4 S-view cover and I just can't see how it could damage a N4. I don't use it because I have decided to go without a case.
