    Maybe some one can help

    Motorola Bionic won't connect to 4G anymore

    These last 2 system updates have not worked out well for me.

      Continued use update here for the HTC One.

      I can speak great things for the battery life on this phone. I promise I haven't put it down since I got it Friday, charged it Sunday morning and I am just now having to charge it. I have been on it. Twitter, ebay, kindle hourly at work. About an hour or two of total talk time and about 100 text. In comparison to my Galaxy S3 (Verizon and i9300) i'd have charged both of those probably around 5 PM Sunday.

      The Beats Audio is definitely something software related that makes it sound so good. The headphones aren't that great on my Macbook, when you get the volume a little high they're just toooo loud, but they are still awesome and I would recommend them over Apple's earbuds. I don't really remember my earpods from the iPhone 5 much but I don't think they were touching this.

          Wow yours is lasting that long? I'm loving the phone but i'm having to charge it every night, I take it off the charger about 6:30 in the morning and when I lay down according to what i've done its between 14 and 40%. I've had power save off for the most part

            Turn power save on and keep it on. It works really well and the data is activated by the time the screen is unlocked.

                Honestly I thought I'd hate the Note II and that it was just far too big, but you get used to it in about 3 days or so. I wrapped my hand around an S3 able to touch my thumb and another finger, and with the Note, almost able to wrap my hand all the way around the phone, so its not so bad.

                Just for the fact that it can do what all of the other phones can do, but not vice versa just makes it worthwhile. Don't think i'll be letting this one go anytime soon.

                  Yes with power save I believe it turns off automatically once you hit that I use wifi but remind me later button. I'm not 100% sure about that but it doesn't use anything when the screen is off which is what helps hold the battery.

                    Re: Official Android Discussion Thread

                    Is there any way around all of these App Permissions I'm seeing lately?

                    This is absurd.

                    You have Game apps that somehow need to access my contact list?

                    I know this isn't just an Android thing but I'm tired of every update asking for more and more permissions especially when they never asked for the before.

                    Does anyone know a workaround?

                        I might get one soon now that google is going to offer an S4 with stock android.

                        The Samsung Galaxy S4. Plain old vanilla Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. It's real

                        Hugo Barra came back to the stage at Google I/O and dropped a huge bombshell on us. The Samsung Galaxy S4 'Google Edition' that has been rumored in the run up to the event is indeed real, and it's going on sale via Google Play!

                        This Galaxy S4 runs Android 4.2.2 just as the regular one does, only this one has absolutely no Touchwiz on it whatsoever. This one runs pure, un-tampered, Google fresh Android.

                        Available from Google Play on June 26 in the U.S, compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile US. 16GB of on board storage expandable via microSD card, LTE, unlockable bootloader, and prompt software updates. Google promises that this Galaxy S4 will provide a "Nexus user experience." Wow. All this will cost $649.
                        If there happens to be an S4 for sprint with the same specs at this I'll def own one soon

                          Yeah I saw that, only for T-Mobile though right?

                            I might be getting it on the 24th since its coming out on the 23rd now for Verizon.

                            I'm getting pretty excited for it now.
