    Hangouts photo quality

    I have this same issue on my S4 when my friend sends me pictures (he is on an S6) the resolution is too low to make out text or anything, and he usually sends pictures of book passages, so I have to get him to type it out... Posted via the Android Central App

    Swift key vs google L keyboard.. Which do u prefer??

    I had used swiftkey for most of my Android career. I was a huge proprietor of it and even got most of my friends and family to buy over to swiftkey. I had purchased it and even purchased a few themes when they brought out the latest version. Swiftkey always had the best prediction algorithm...

    Will the LG G3 get Android 5.0 Lollipop?

    You don't want it to use less RAM, I'm assuming you have the 3GB version. Any RAM that isn't being utilized for something is wasted.

    Alarm Clock not Ringing... Sometimes?

    Hello Community, I am a long time Android user, but just recently got the LG G3 (32GB version) with Bell Canada. I had a Samsung SIII for the past few years and upgrade time came. So I did my research, found the LG G3, and so far I've been very happy. There is one issue, though, that I have...

    The Next Nexus 7: Buy it or pass?

    Re: The Next Nexus 7 buy it or pass? It is there, the android central review has it listed, I think I remember 35-- or 33-- something like that, it would be sufficient. Sent from my SGH-I747M using AC Forums mobile app

    New to smartphones and Samsung Questions on using internet

    You can take a screen shot by swiping with your Palm (if you have it enabled) or holding power and home button together. Take a gallivant through the settings of your phone. Sent from my SGH-I747M using AC Forums mobile app

    Galaxy S3 battery drain problem

    Actually its fastest drain section is from 100% to 90%, this is likely due to the normal drain curve on these phones, as well as from 10% to 0%, although not as steep as 100-90. See this diagram I quickly made for a visualization, it is by no means accurate, but it describes what I've seen...

    New to smartphones and Samsung Questions on using internet

    Hi, I've found that with the latest version of Google Now, I've had to press on the links a couple of times. Could you please post a screen shot of exactly what you're having difficulty clicking on? It would be great if you could circle it in red (using paint or something), but if you can't...

    Google Maps 7

    This is funny, on the same topic I was using Google maps and I was thinking to myself (literally as I was using it) "why doesn't it allow alternative routes for navigation options, like maps on pc does" and then I set the phone down, 5 minutes later I picked it up again and noticed the maps app...

    issues with text messages on my galaxy s3

    What is your date/time settings like compared to the person you are texting, also which texting app are you using? The reason I ask is most texting apps place their messages in order based on the time they think they were sent or received. Sent from my SGH-I747M using AC Forums mobile app

    How does S3 Cooling Work?

    Yes, sorry I was confused, brine freezes at a lower temperature than just water, what I meant is you could get it below 0C, but I don't see why you'd need to do that to begin with, just regular ice water would work Sent from my SGH-I747M using AC Forums mobile app

    Jelly Bean Update with Odin went wrong and now it's stuck

    I haven't run into this per say, but I have heard about it (or something similar). My suggestion is to delete and reinstall (maybe don't have to delete, just try installing over) the driver for the phone, and reinstall Kies. In the end Kies should always see the device, even if there is no...

    How does S3 Cooling Work?

    I thought of something that might help cool that doesn't involve throwing the phone in the freezer. It is as simple as putting it in two sealed plastic bags (two for security, preferably zip lock), and put it in a bucket or tupperware container of ice. if you're sure about the seal, a mixture...
