    HTC U11 ATT and Telcel compatibility in Mexico

    I currently have an HTC U11 on the Sprint network. I am now living in Mexico and Sprint has given me a service providing me with free unlimited calling, texting to the U.S., and Canada as well as unlimited high speed data. I am looking into switching to a Mexican carrier, either TelCel or ATT...

    What is the best virus protection ?

    This may be an old (ancient?) topic, but I am getting more concerned about protecting our phones. I have downloaded and installed Lookout on my phone. I have to renew the virus protection on my computer and saw that Norton 360 Multi Devices includes android protection. I was wondering, which was...

    Losing audio during phone conversation

    Thank you for replying. It is possible, but in most cases, the person that I was talking with was also on the Sprint network and was not having these problems. I was thinking about bringing it to Best Buy, with whom I insured it, but the problem is intermittent and cannon be replicated by any...

    Losing audio during phone conversation

    I have been having an intermittent problem where the volume decreases to the point that I can't hear the person I am speaking with and then returns to the original volume during a phone conversation. I have to hang up and call the person back to fix this problem. I don't listen to music on the...

    Do you have to send the sd card from your old phone for the trade up?

    I'm getting ready to send in my old phone for my trade up. I have pictures and other things on my sd card that I would like to keep for back up purposes. Do I have to send the card in with my phone? I seem to remember reading somewhere that they would destroy the card anyway (but then again...

    Today at my local Best Buy: Samsung vs. HTC

    That is possible. I use Sprint and have gone to many Sprint stores to try to see the black model. I have only gone to one or two AT&T stores, just to try and see what they look like since I purchased my silver phone before the black model was released. Actually, I haven't been to an AT&T store...

    Today at my local Best Buy: Samsung vs. HTC

    Amazon.com has a large selection of cases and screen protectors for the HTC ONE, at cheaper prices. You can also find cases and screen protectors on manufacturer's and other web sites. You can also search for cases using Google or other search engines

    Today at my local Best Buy: Samsung vs. HTC

    As other people have noted, the Samsung stands or galleries are owned and run by Samsung (or their representatives), not Best Buy so you have to consider the sources, both of the display and sales people. I have had both Best Buy and Sprint reps tell me they preferred the ONE. I live in New...

    Swype vs SwiftKey

    Is there a big difference between the shiftkey trial and paid version? I am too late for Amazon's free app of the day. This might belong in a separate thread, but couldn't find an appropriate one and didn't want to start a new one. Thanks

    Swype vs SwiftKey

    I tried to find swift key flow but there was only the swift key keyboard app. Is the swiftkey flow part of that app? Also, does anybody know how Skype and swiftkey compares to the google keyboard? (Or should that be a different thread?)

    backlight bleeding.. might go s4 now..

    Amazon.com sells lots of cases for the HTC ONE. I use the Diztronic case, which I am very happy with. You can usually find cases cheaper at Amazon.com than best buy, radio shack and many other places.

    Has anybody seen an actual activated black ONE demo?

    I have been looking for a live demo of the black HTC ONE, basically to see what I missed since they were released too late for me to exchange my silver phone for. I have looked in Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile stores as well as Best Buy. I have seen 'dummy' phones at Best Buy, but only silver at the...

    Would you use your phone naked?- and actually enjoy the aluminum?

    I am generally pretty rough with my phones, keeping them in my pockets, sometimes with keys and/or coins, so I do use a case and screen protector. Besides, I like the contrast of the silver speakers, screen and black case.

    Black Sprint HTC Ones coming in

    For what it's worth, a sales rep at Wirefly told me they had the black in stock last week.

    $100 Trade in offer extended to 5/19!

    I got the same email. I'm happy for the people who haven't purchased theirs yet and pissed off because I could have waited for Newegg to receive their phones and have saved $40., or waited for a black model if they would have announced it earlier. I had even emailed them and they told me that...
