I have searched through here and I have not seen any definitive answers about getting better battery life. I left my house this morning. Did noting with the phone except take off charger. Drove 40 mins with phone in pocket and checked it and battery was down to 90%. I never lost that much on...

For some reason after lollipop upgrade the long press of the home button takes me to a search page with Yahoo. How the hell did Yahoo get on an android phone lol. I really don't want anything to happen with the long press of the home button but if something does have to happen then Google Search...

I am looking to get a car radio with bluetooth and was wondering if anyone knew if the voice from the gps would stream through the phone connected to a bluetooth radio. Might sound like a strange question but I have bad hearing and with the road noise it's hard to hear the gps. Sent from my...

Ok here is the deal. I had a camera focus issue with my original S3. Took it to the warranty center and they replaced it. Works great. I rooted then rom'd and it breaks the camera. Doesn't matter if 4.2 or 4.3 camera can't connect. Flashed back to stock checked the camera works just fine. So I...

This is looks to be a nice app App 2 SD Pro

First off am running StarDroid 3.2.1 I don't think it's rom related but user related I have added pictures of 2 people. They do show up in the phone when I edit the contact. They also show up online when I hover over the contacts name. However they won't show up in the people app or the phone...

Well with the break up of the Unity team and thus support for it will be delegated to the community. I was wondering if and what ROMS folks were going to go to. Lets try and keep this thread on topic and not get into a multi faceted discussion about the demise of the Unity ROM. I hear that...

Ok jumped ship from the Captivate to the Inspire. So far am liking the phone. I want to root it and rom. I saw the sticky in the general section and want to ask is that the best place to start? Captivate was fairly easy to mess with. Reading a bit seems the inspire is a bit more tricky. I...

Well I see that I am due for an upgrade on July 21st and am thinking about getting another device. I like the captivate but am wanting to get 4g as I will be going into 4g areas periodically and would like to take advantage of the speed. Not sure which way to go. Get the Infuse for 149 in...

I just saw this video and would like to know if it can be turned into a boot animation. TIA if this should be in the Q&A section feel free to move it but felt this would be best in here as its theme related and could very well lead to a nice tutorial on how this can be done.

Preferably free but not more then 10 bucks am looking for an app that I can securely store my bank account information and passwords I guess. Desktop sync is not needed but would be nice. KeePass Droid just doesn't do it for me. Even an encrypted notepad would do the trick.

OK this is wiered. I have the yellow pages app and I use it alot to call for take out from a particular restaurant. So I get the smart idea to add it to my contacts. Well the sucker didn't show up in there but did show up on my gmail account. No matter what I did I couldn't get it to show up on...

This is strange my phone says PDA: I897UCjH7 Phone: I897UCjH3 CSC: I897ATTjF6 Don't ask me how that happened lol must have been through the many sre changes but that is what the phone is reporting. I used the SGS Toolbox app to retrieve this information. Is this an issue to have the pda as...

Ok seems that I have accumulated some issues with my phone right now with apps not being able to launch and sl4a fc when I try to run it. What stuff should I save off and best way to do that as I am going to flash back to jf6 but do a master clear first. Then I am going to put jh7 back on then...

I want to make sure a program starts up when I turn the phone on. FastWeb installer for appbrain would be nice to have startup automatically when I boot my phone. How do I do this

Not a great searcher tried to see if people had similar issues. It seems that when the phone goes into sleep mode and I press the power button to restore the screen and then swipe to get to the desktop I have to click the icons 2x in order for them to launch. Not sure if this occured before I...
