Can't you still buy insurance for the phone and say the drop happened after you bought the insurance? Sent from my Galaxy Note 2

I'm actually not using more data because I'm on wifi more than I was before. I came from a gnex so I can use this phone more since the battery doesn't die after 5 hours. When I go back to college in January I'm sure my data will be more than before just because I don't have to conserve the...

If you read the "fine print" for places other than Verizon (like BB or Amazon) the phone must be activated on the line the upgrade was used on for 181 days or you must pay a fee which is the discount you originally got. So you would end up paying the full price of the phone if you switch lines...

Quite a few of the toggle controls also have sub menus like that. I just find stuff like that by pressing everything. Some of the settings are difficult to find at first. Sent from my Galaxy Note 2

I get over 24 hours with 8 hours or more of screen on with stock battery. A big thing is how good the signal your phone gets where you spend most of the day. I live right by a Verizon tower so I always have great signal at home. Sent from my Galaxy Note 2

Go into the settings list > s pen> air view > list scrolling. Be sure to tap the word "air view" and not the on/off toggle. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Android Central Forums

Actually, they told me the choices are 2, 5, and 10. I was able to keep unlimited so far (details in another thread.) As for the price dropping, look at the GS3. The subsidized price is still $199. Samsung phones are selling like crazy. If they are selling, they probably won't drop the price...

Yesterday, after about 19 hours off the charger and 6 hours of screen on time I was around 45% remaining. Your settings may affect this. I use auto brightness and mostly wifi although I was out of the house on 4G for about 8 hours yesterday. It also depends what you are doing with the screen...

I think the double tap to top only takes you to the top of lists. It would be nice if this worked for web pages. To me, that is more useful than lists. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Android Central Forums

So far so good. I am now using my Note 2 on my regular number. I just swapped SIM cards for that. Then I tried to reactivate our feature phone but it wasn't working properly so I called VZW and they took care of it. The $29.99 data plan automatically dropped and the feature phone is now...

I just came from the gnex today as well. Right now I'm at 5 hours of screen on time and off the charger for 9.5 hours and 50% battery remaining. Much better than charging after about 5 hours of my gnex sitting in my pocket. Its nice to be able to USE my phone and not worry about battery. I am...

I should also mention I payed the full 300 at the Verizon store instead of doing this through BestBuy or Amazon (both have cheaper prices) because there are weird lines in the policy agreement thing for both that say something like they want that phone kept on the original line for 181 days or...

I have been using my note 2 today (just got it) and my galaxy nexus together since my main number is on the gnex until tomorrow so I still text from it. My gnex has about 2 hours of screen on time and is about to die. My note 2 has close to 5 hours of screen on time with 10 hours off the charger...

I'll let you know how things on the account look tomorrow after I switch devices around and then again after the 12th when our billing period ends and the new one begins. I was about to go out and lose unlimited data for this phone then I read about this. I'd rather try something that might...

3. You could get NFC tags and touch your phone to it on your desk or something at home. Using the app NFC Task Launcher you can program the tags so when your phone touches them certain actions happen like turn wifi on and turn the phone to vibrate. Almost anything you want really. It is like...
