    What phone to buy next

    Your N4 had a good run. The N4 was my 1st smartphone and it's my go to backup. I went out of the conventional mold and bought a OnePlus One. Very happy. I had no idea how rapidly OnePlus onboards new models. If you do go that way, stock up on any of their legit accessories (if you're a purist...

    Proud to pass a wonderful phone to daughter

    Not one peep of disgruntlement or whine for an iPhone anymore. Of course social media rules and the phone memory is small by today's standards. No desire to waste my time with on a Snapchat learning curve. I can delete the material from Snapchat, but what if she balks - i.e., wants to keep it...

    Divert a random call to voicemail "on the fly"

    I live in the Northeast and was hoping I could use a button instead of touch & swipe - i.e., pulling out phone, taking off gloves and swipe. Or be able to discreetly reach in my pocket/purse without having to take the phone out in a dark movie theatre or meeting and avoid the groans & glares...

    Divert a random call to voicemail "on the fly"

    There was a thread that I can't locate that spoke about a "one button" technique to instantly reject/send an out of the blue call to voicemail - not just turn off the ringer, but divert it straight to voicemail. I don't need to customize settings, just be able to reject a call in one motion -...

    MMS / APN Settings with stock messaging app

    Worked like a charm on a dumb phone. This is my first smartphone. AT&T is a GSM network like T-Mo, so I can't imagine the carrier would make a difference.

    MMS / APN Settings with stock messaging app

    No. The only thumbnail is that of a slideshow in the text (not a picture), with a "play" button in the center of the slideshow widget. I press the play, wait (more than 2 or 3 seconds!), then finally it opens up and I can see the picture. Sorry, typo on the limit of image size included in an...

    MMS / APN Settings with stock messaging app

    Hi everyone - my APN settings have been verified by carrier (T-Mo/not prepaid). I cannot believe that an incoming text message with an MMS image (<2MG) on the stock messaging app is displayed as a slideshow that needs to be opened to be viewed. Two reps have told me that's just the way it is...

    I have a Nexus 4, you have questions. Fire away.

    Absolutely, I try to support app developers any way I can. I'm dizzy from the settings within it. Still having trouble with messaging. I have no issues with T-Mo restricting size of MMS (1MB), thing is I'm not getting any MMS messages on the native (another way of saying stock?) app. T-Mo...

    I have a Nexus 4, you have questions. Fire away.

    Thank you Lanhoj! I LOVE lightflow! I'm going to consider the DS Battery Saver after reading up on it. I was a little confused on your answer to #4, "Set it to higher in some 3rd party SMS Apps". I went to Android messaging app (which is all I use outside of GV) /settings/multimedia message...

    Hi Phil. Thanks for the welcome opp to ask away, including newbies I hope! My baby is 4 days old. I have 5 questions: #1: Saw somewhere that the phone could (does) behave like a Blackberry, where a light appears indicating something to unlock the phone is there to check. The only light I...

    Reset 1 day old Nexus 4?

    Old dog, new tricks. Newbie here. I have lost my Google Play widget. Should I just reset the phone? Everything I need is already on Google. If yes, how do I go about a hard reset? Thanks all!:-[
