    Linux: Which distro do you run and why?

    Re: Which distro do you run and why? I recently switched back to OpenSUSE after some time away using Windows XP, and 8. After deciding that Win 8 is a bloated joke on my laptop, I decided to return to the land of Linux. I gave Ubuntu and Mint a try but didn't like Unity or Cinnamon. I've...

    Verizon prepaid

    I just have a simple question for anybody who might know. What, if any, is the advantage of using Verizon prepaid service over a MVNO that operates on Vzw network? Do true Vzw customer get network priority? Do they get access to roaming partners? Is there no advantage at all? Sent...

    Straight Talk phone using Verizon towers?

    Look at the lower left corner of the box. If it says "cdma-v" then the phone will use the Verizon network. The best Android that they currently sell for use in the Verizon network is the LG Optimus showtime. The second best is probably the Samsung Galaxy Proclaim (which I have). Avoid...

    straight talk

    I'm using the Verizon network so I'm limited to the phones that they offer. All of them run Gingerbread. I suppose there is an app for tracking data use but I just haven't taken the time to look for one yet.

    2.3.6 update for the Galaxy Proclaim

    I woke up this morning to find an update had been pushed to my phone. It was the 2.3.6 update that was released over a year ago. Glad it finally made it down the hill to us. Anybody else get it?

    straight talk

    I haven't hit any limits yet, but I don't know how much data I actually use per day/month. How do you guys find this information?

    SwiftKey Flow is now out of beta!

    Re: SwiftKey Flow returns lol the reboot helped some for me. There still seems to be some lag occasionally and once in a while it even locks up for a few seconds. It seems to depend on what app I happen to be using at the time. Google plus seems to cause the most trouble.

    SwiftKey Flow is now out of beta!

    Re: SwiftKey Flow returns lol I was using the swiftkey beta happily for the last week or so until a language update this morning caused it to start force closing on me. IM not sure what to do next and don't have time to look into it right now so IM back to swipe for the time being.

    Linux: Which distro do you run and why?

    Re: Which distro do you run and why? I just recently installed openSUSE after some time away with Windows. Mainly due to my owning a BlackBerry. The first thing I did after switching to Android (since there is no desktop manager that requires windows) was to start checking out Linux distros...

    Did Strait Talk drop att?

    Net10 and Straight Talk are both owned and operated by Tracfone. If one has dropped AT&T then the other most likely has also.
