Re: Official Android Discussion Thread

Anything worth a damn coming out for Sprint by next month? I'll be eligible for my year upgrade on August 26 or something like that.

Frankly, I don't know if it's the Sprint service now or my individual unit but I'm not happy with the HTC One. It's really taken a dive in quality in the last couple months, from random phone call drops to pic messages taking a while to go through (send arrow flashes for minutes, never know when it actually sends) to apps hardly working when on wifi then magically working when I turn wifi off (namely LinkedIn and Facebook), to the pink/purple hue issue on the camera rendering my camera completely useless to a few other things. How is it possible for me to have 4G on like 5 bars but to not have things load properly, which is what happened tonight. I don't know, maybe I'm expecting too much now.

Sprint service is trash and i'm tired of it.

I love it. Battery life is great. Feels like a solid high end device in the hand. Love their features as well. Can't say enough about the display too. I tend to replace my phone a little more often then I probably should, but I could see myself hanging on to this for a while.

Just played around with the G3 again yesterday and am just not impressed with the QHD display. I'm considering getting it but i'm waiting to be blown away by the display. The S5 screen looks better to me and it could be that i'm used to their amoled displays. I had the G3 brightness turned up to max and it didn't help. I love everything else about the G3 though.

Yes it is.

So it turns out there's an HTC E8. Kind of stupid that they went with plastic. The aluminum body gives the M7 and M8 a premium feel.

Re: Official Android Discussion Thread

I'm trying to decide whether or not to get the G3 now, or wait for the Note 4, or even possibly even the S6. I'm leaning towards the Note 4 though.

The G3 is a great looking phone, but I've always used Samsung products and am a fan. I'm sure the Note 4 will be a great phone, but I don't want it to get any bigger than the Note 3. I don't know if I could handle that.

The S6 would be an option, I guess, but there's at least another 8 months until release, I can't wait that long.

I got a One Plus One invite, and it's a great value, but my invite expired.

So, once December rolls around, it looks like it'll be the Note 4 for me, as long as it doesn't get bigger, or too much bigger. Anything is an upgrade from my iPhone. Upgraded (downgraded really ) from my Galaxy S3, and I wish I hadn't. The S3 was probably my favorite phone I've ever had.

Yeah Sprint is garbage for sure. I was with them for about 11 years and it's been going down for awhile but the last couple years were really terrible. I switched from them to T-Mobile and got the Oneplus One phone and i'm loving it.

Here's a little info on it cause you can't buy it in stores right now.

The only way to get this phone is through and invite and I have one to give out if someone here is interested in buying one. Only have one day left before I loose the invite.

If someone wants it you'll have 48-72 hours to claim it and the same time after to buy it. Can't use the phone if you have Verizon or Sprint as it's a GSM phone. Just hit me up and i'll send what you need.

Thought I'd try here before going to Oneplus forums and giving to one of them

Just got my Nexus 5 today. I was having issues with my S4 and decided it was time for a new phone. I'm liking it so far. The speakers seem to be lacking, but that's not a big deal for me.

What app(s) does everyone use to download music?

If you don't mind YouTube quality I suggest Tube Mate. It's a really easy to use YouTube downloader. It's not on the app store but you can just Google it and download the apk.

Re: Official Android Discussion Thread

Anyone have any recommendations on an app I should get in order to get better camera quality out of my tablet? The tablet has a couple of MP, but the overall quality in camera mode really doesn't seem that great,especially indoors(despite a real well lit room).

My phone is fine with taking pictures inside and it's the same MP quality as the tablet,but for some reason the tablet doesn't seem to produce the same quality.

Re: Official Android Discussion Thread

I'm trying out Assistant too. Do you have to upgrade to actually be able to tell it to remind you of stuff? Every time I try it wants to do the Mental Push-ups instead...
