    People still use BlackBerrys...? Honestly what's the point of this BBM messenger? All the features it had when BBs were actually used are now available in other apps.

      Yeah I mean is this really a big deal anymore? If this was 2008 I could understand the excitement but I don't know a single person who still uses BB.

        In general are any of the sports games fun? I see games like F1 and dont know if there just a waste of money?

        Anybody recommend any games that might be fun on a lunch break to escape for a few minutes? Came home yesterday and the wife had a $50 itunes card foe me
        Dream League Soccer had me occupied in my spare time for about two months. 9innings is a superb baseball game with MLB player licensing. Not exactly sports (sort of racing, I suppose), but Monster Truck Destruction is as good a monster truck simulation as we have seen since Monster Truck Madness on PC. I have spent some time playing Tiger Woods, FIFA, Yatzee, and Farkle (dice game) as well as Zynga Poker too.

          We checked for water damage and that's not it. I saw on the internet to give it a few good poundings in the palm of your hand by the flash, so we did that and it worked lol.

          Its come on a few more times, but she just does that and it goes off.

              I just opened the app and turned it on and off within its' own controls and it stayed off. Bottom line is this update sucked to the highest degree, especially for battery life.

                    Re: iPhone Discussion Thread

                    I ****ing hate Apple right now. I switched to a Galaxy Note 3 from a iPhone 4 and everyone that has had a iPhone and texted me while I had a iPhone can not text me on my Note 3 because of the stupid iMessage BS. Apple being the ****ty company they are isnt taking any responsibility for the situation and its been 2 months that I can not recieve messages from iPhones. I have dont everything in the self help section which includes going into my old iPhone and turning iMessage off to having my friends that have iPhone go into thier setting, turn off iMessage then delete me and add me again. They can text me fine up until they turn iMessage back on. I even removed the device from the website and still no dice. Pissing me the hell off.

                    If anyone knows a solution to this please let me know because I am getting severely stressed out over this. Its like Apple is punishing people for switching over to Android with this crap.

                      Don't they have your number? There's also a way to hack iMessage so it can be on anything like Android, but it's too risky

                        They text my number that is the same as my iPhone number but instead of a regular message it still texts as a iMessage.

                          Have you called your service provider about it? Maybe Apple too. That is such an odd thing.

                            Yep, its not just me having the problem. Apparently the problem is rampant with a lot of people switching over. I have been in contact with Apple support and they are trying to say that its a user error since I never deactivated iMessage from my old iPhone. AT&T has been very helpful with me and thats where I learned that its a wide spread problem for those who have switch to android from iPhone regardless of carrier. They told me to contact apple support and look up the troubleshooting guides.

                            First off how in the hell am I (Or anyone else for that matter) suppose to know that you got to shift through the settings and find iMessaging and turn it off along with Facetime? (I already did that because of the guide however) Them basically saying that all of this is my own fault is what has got me very pissed off.

                              That sucks. I wish that stuff was only connect through your AppleID instead of number. And for cases with users multiple iDevices, they would have to be signed in to give iMessages/FaceTime messages.

                                The way that I got it working was that I had people texting me delete their entire thread from me, I'd send a text, and then we would be on a new text conversation. It was a hassle but when I went to the HTC One a couple of months that's what I had to do.
