    Any of you also use a tablet

    I use a new kindle fire 2017 all the time. I always wanted a nexus 7 but never could justify the cost. $30 on sale was just right to find out if a needed a tablet for the 2015 model and with the screen improvements and optimizing the 2017 model is just right for me. I used to have new phones all...

    "Upgrade" from HDX for better video watching experience?

    Even though the fire 7 specs are the same from my 2015 and now my 2017, the 2017 definitely is much snappier and doesn't lag much at all. For $30 when they are on sale they ar very hard to beat. Screen color accuracy and viewing angles are much better on the new ones as well.

    Guest Profile?

    It doesn't appear that this is possible. Only options are make a kids profile which are limited, or add another adult account that you have to sign into amazon to be able to use.

    Verizon now dropped to 3rd in latest speed test data

    Yeah I'm generally too busy at work to use my phone short of a quick google search for a specific medicine I may not know or a diagnosis or something. I generally talk and text while I'm at work and then use my phone for days stuff when I'm at home on wifi lol.

    Verizon now dropped to 3rd in latest speed test data

    Yeah a close city to me that isn't even the biggest city in the area is really congested and crawls at times. Like premium said though I'm on the 5 gig $55 a month and can't beat it. I generally only use around 2.5 gigs per month so I almost always have 7.5 gigs each month if needed.

    I Don't Think My Battery Life Should be This Bad

    Yeah mine was kinda dwindling when before I switched to iPhone. I think part of it is the turbo charger I used it each night and I'm sure that wasn't good for the battery.

    I am really struggling with typing on the Pixel.... coming from 7Plus

    Yeah I was pretty resistant to swapping. I still can't stand typing on my dads iphone 5 I can't hit anything right on it.

    I am really struggling with typing on the Pixel.... coming from 7Plus

    I'm having the opposite problem. I used google keyboard for like 2 years before just now switching back to iOS due to my whole family being on iPhones. It's terrible going through this adjustment period, but you will get the hang of it

    I Don't Think My Battery Life Should be This Bad

    You go to settings>storage and USB>device storage then click on the cached data it will prompt you through it after that.

    I Don't Think My Battery Life Should be This Bad

    Also might want to try holding down the power button until it reboots. That calibrates the battery.

    24.31.22 Update

    Kind of annoying problem I have had so far is if I restart my phone it will forget my Bluetooth devices. Don't know what that's about but it's usually not that big of deal.

    Verizon warranty replacement DT2 won't update to latest version or security updates

    Did you happen to plug it into a USB 3.0 port? For some reason I want to say that matters. I want to say I remember reading somewhere that for the update assistant to work properly it needs to be plugged into a USB 2.0 port.

    Confused about Shattershield replacement

    Mine is scratched like crazy ( thanks defender case) and I had a glass screen protector put over all the scratches and I can't even see them now. My screen is almost completed scratched up and it looks great now. I wouldn't take the old one off. I would just cover it up

    6.0 Marshmallow: How's your battery life after the update?

    Mine seems to be more consistent from charge to charge now that it is on 6.0. 1. Also don't notice WiFi as my top battery drain anymore.
