Re: Not quite
I am paying for my internet on my phone and if I want to use a preloaded app instead of downloading an app I should be allowed to.
They shouldn't be allowed to block web traffic since we are paying for it, if I go over my limit I'll pay the fee. But if i'm using more than my share of bandwidth then throttled me until I'm not hogging bandwidth.
Neutrality is not a stupid idea, they should allow ...
I still used this
When I am on EDGE I use this because its faster than letting my smartphone load for what seems forever for the results to load.
Re: This is passive aggressive way
But they will jump to defend Apple's Chinese workers, but won't say anything about this.
If this is the rumor Motorola/Google X Phone.
I would buy this phone if:
1) It had a removable battery
2) It kept the Kevlar backing (more for personal reason)
3) Especially if it got regular updates, especially since its rumored to be stock updates (Nexus-like), I'd take a month delay simply because that would be better than what is happening now
Android source code.
Isn't android source code free to access to anyone?
Why doesn't Apple download the source code them self?
Re: 2002?
I haven't heard about AOL for a while and I don't care what you use. I thought it was bought out to be completely honest.
2002?
2002 called and wants it stuff back Verizon.
Seriously who still uses AOL?
Re: LTE - 3GB's/mo
I like LTE on my phone because it loads pages faster and I can through my RSS feed faster.
I use my smartphone for RSS feeds, some random (non-internet) games, and calling and texting that is all I need it to do. If I want to watch video I'll use my laptop or tv because they have bigger screens.
I personally don't see how by not watching videos on my phone is not using my phone to is fulling potential, and ...
Re: Finally!
Personally I prefer Linux Mint 13 running Cinnamon over Windows 7, but that't my personal preferences and my two cents.

Softbank is the better deal.
Softbank is a better deal because:
Per percentage being bought Softbank equals out to a rough $285,714.29 per percentage while Dish equals to 255,000 per percentage.
Softbank has cell phone carrier experience plus might get some Japan phones to compete against other carriers (butterfly J comes to mind)
Dish in my experience has never been reliable, nor gave us a easy setup (if we wanted to rearrange the house) compare to Direct Tv or our local cable company
Plus this could help Sprint ...
Verizon does not equal timely updates
The Perception will ship with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, but will be updated to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean quickly.
You mean in 2 to 3 months they might push it out the update, but expect it to be 4 to 6 months so Verizon can test the update and add bloatware to it!
If this was an unlocked phone for a GSM carrier then it might get a timely update but Verizon is notoriously slow when it comes to updating ...
What I like just as good...
"The Inquiry seeks comment from the industry on whether or not the FCC should change the telephone numbering system's current relationship with subscriber location."
This would free up a lot of numbers, because how many number are not being used because that area code is over a large rural area and to use all the numbers would be nearly impossible to use all of those numbers. It would then give big city more numbers to use.
I'm also guilty of ...
best part is a cheap nexus-like android
Turn facebook home off and it gets nexus-like android experience for cheap.
Re: Why?
It is actually smart because they were afraid of a remote detonating bomb (most common source is using cellphones).
Re: Tough Fight.
Should have done this with the 700 band when it was auction off.
Re: messenger
I typed that entire review on my phone otherwise I would have been a little more specific. I did not know Facebook's privacy policy is longer than the constitution.
I like the messenger app for it's head chat, hopefully handcent and other text replacement apps do something like it. It's a better way to notify you when your doing something than the traditional pop up text reply.
Re: messenger
Phone I'm using is HTC One X, stock HTC Android 4.1.
The lockscreen is the Facebook feed, showing one status with the background image being the cover picture and you can swipe left or right to look at other status.
To unlock you have to tap the lockscreen, or hit one of the three android buttons on button to take you to the lock htc screen, after tapping the lockscreen you have three options to take a circle, a picture your ...
messenger
I tried Facebook home to put simply it sucks, messenger on the other hand I have set to as my main sms app and it's nice because the chat head feature still works with normal text messages.
Re: launchers?
I hate the cartoon look, although it seems to be the underlining theme in a lot of the launchers I've looked at, sadly. The few launcher I did like either didn't support widgets or didn't support all of the widgets on my phone.
launchers?
I want a unique launcher, something that has a Holo influence and is easily customized.
I don't like Go launcher, launcher pro, apex launcher, but I like listener launched but it wasn't customizable enough.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
Re: WHAT!
2.1 is old and I thought the Motorola Droid came out in summer of 2009 so that would make it an almost 4 year old phone.
A lot of low-end phones are coming out with 4.0 I am surprise this update even supports 2.2.
Re: No, thanks
If it's a launcher I'll give it a try because then it can be deleted. I currently looking for a good launcher to replace sense.
Re: The 4? Really?
Android is open source so that is probably why they can't trademark, or patent it. Which is why they probably can't sue, but I'm not sure about that it just a guess.
Re: STOP THE INSANITY...iPhone???
The iPhone 5 will be optimized for T-mobile while the 4 and 4s will not be.

Maybe on her bike? :D
If a bike represents HSPA+ what vehicle would she ride to represent LTE???? :D :D
What outfit would she wear for the new vehicle? :D :D :D
Re: Oh, and it wouldn't be complete without a pink, circular stage for the presenters on which to st
Cowboy wants to usher in change, so he puts on a pink cowboy hat. Um, yeah.
The fun continues.
Oh, and it wouldn't be complete without a pink, circular stage for the presenters on which to stand.
:lol: :lol:
That made my day thank you for brightening up my day.
Bloatware
Great more bloatware on phones that you cant remove how nice Verizon.
I bet everyone on Verizon will use this app everyday! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Re: Headline Incorrect
Regardless of what we have, Android's wallet is obviously a blatant copy of Apple's Passbook.
It should read:

Re: What OS?
Android
Padfone
I wish the Padfone would hit the US market because it is an interesting device and with the US carriers subsidizing handsets it might actually be affordable.
Re: Really??
Is Apple losing there touch?
Re: White and Silver
Another big disappointment is they still use off screen navigation, when 4.0 supports on screen just fine (after using the nexus 7 I prefer on screen navigation). I use the multi-tasking button a lot on my HTC One X to switch between apps and I am disappointed that they dropped it.
HTC will continue to fail till they learn that stock android is getting great and it doesn't need to be skinned, removable battery and expandable memory is what ...
White and Silver
The white and silver model looks better than the black model, I guess I'm just tired of all black phones. The white and silver pictures seem to have more personality.
I am very skeptic of the this phone because I have the HTC One X and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Because of random reboots and software glitches.
Re: 2005 called............
Most tablets have GPS I use my nexus 7 as my GPS device. I just load the maps for offline use and use the bigger screen which is nicer and easier to use than a phone screen. I have been tempted to go back to a basic phone as well.
The feature is available to Android, iOS, and Mac devices for the moment
Did anyone else realize that Microsoft the owner of Skype didn't even make this feature available to there own operating system.
Re: What a lose :(
The iPhone is not as dominant as it used to be and I looked at a world statistic, I think I saw it on either Android Authority or Cnet I don't remember which now.
What a lose :(
I personally prefer Android devices, but without competition a OS become stagnant.
With Microsoft Window's 8, BlackBerry's BB 10, and Canonical Ubuntu phone are trying to innovate (in UI, price, design, security, apps etc) in someway to make them stand out in the crowd and grab the 3rd spot crown (hopefully they are shooting for the top but we have to be realistic here).
If we only have iOS/Mac OS X and Android/Chromium they OS will become scary ...
Re: This one's easy
I have the HTC One X and its problems are about to cause me to return the POS or root and flash a ROM.
