    [Closed] Win one of five VR for G3 visors —*and a phone to go with it!

    This would be really awesome. And seeing how my wife's phone JUST fell into the toilet (LG G2) timely as well!

    [Closed] Win one of two 2013 Nexus 7 tablets from Android Central

    My tab is dying a slow death (did I mention slow?). This would be wonderful "welcome to the world" present for my second child (due end of august!). Oh who am I kidding, it would be for me!

    Jelly Bean Bugs

    My phone has done this bluetooth problem you describe since I got it on ICS 4.0 (verizon). Each successive build I hope that it gets fixed, and it never does. Leading me to believe its a flaw in my phone, not the software.

    What browser are you using?

    I use Dolphin for Pad, Firefox Nightly, and Skyfire. Each one gives me a bit different characteristics so that I can get a page to render exactly as I expect it to. But, I like to tinker, whereas most people just want it to work. In fact, that's how I describe Android. It's perfect if you...

    Netflix?

    Eventually. Actually if you root your thrive, there is a patch that makes netflix work. So its not a hardware issue, its just netflix taking their sweet time in allowing everyone to access it. Why? Who knows.

    dampen cloths for screen

    I use Bausch and Lomb Sight savers Pre-Moistened Lens Cleaning Tissues. They are basically moistened with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. Basically anything glass or plastic (glasses, computer monitor screens, thrive, camera lenses) they work great on.

    How can KasperskyTabletSecurity be fc'd?

    Actually, I never even touched the icon of Kaspersky and it is constantly running in the foreground. You cannot kill it. If I kill the process it comes back. Kinda the definition of malware, huh? Ah the irony.

    Asus Transformer vs Toshiba Thrive vs Phantom Amazon Tablet

    I'd say only get the Toshiba Thrive if the extras it has (full size sd card slot, full size hdmi, full size usb + mini usb) are what you really need for a tablet. I bought the Thrive specifically b/c I wanted the full size sd card reader for use with my Nikon DSLR. So I can quickly check and...

    Toshiba Touchscreen Pen

    Has anyone purchased or used this? Its only $15 so I may do so on a whim, but I was just curious if there were any users out there. Thanks! -Keith

    Thrive problems, questions, and comments

    Also, if you "double-tap" on a webpage, especially in the area you are interested in reading, the webpage will zoom in and justify the text. You may have to slide the page left or right to center it, but it works extremely well.

    Thrive Cases

    I bought the Toshiba Portfolio case. It adds a bit of weight, but nothing killer. Plus it has velcro that lets you prop it up at an angle. Overall pleased with it.
