    My Nexus 4 is arriving from Google tomorrow.

    Not soon enough, because my Galaxy SII is crap.

        I am back on AT&T. Sprint made me appreciate the consistently blazing fast internet speeds that AT&T had even if their coverage dropped sometimes.

        I got the HTC One with AT&T and so far I have 2 bars of 4G in my basement compared to zero with the iPhone 5 on AT&T. Maybe AT&T did some upgrades in the area or my theory about iPhones "phone" function sucking major donkey balls.

        Anywho, I need a serious solution to Wi-Fi calling and such because I am in a underground bunker at work and no cell signal gets through unless it's a CDMA phone. Would setting up Google voice be enough or will I need a VOIP app to go along with it as well?

            I really like my HTC Incredible S, I've had it for a year and a half now. However, the battery, in the past week or so, has turned to utter ****. When I'm using it without charging it simultaneously, the battery often suddenly stops decreasing in battery level (ie, freezes at 74%). To clear up, my phone does not freeze, only the battery level. Anyway, then after an hour or two, the phone just suddenly turns off and can't be turned back on without being connected to a charger. The really odd thing about this is that the battery isn't actually AT zero.

              Anybody here have/has had the Samsung Stratosphere? Worst Android on the market, have it at the moment and hate it beyond belief. Drops so many calls, force closes almost every appear within 5 minutes of use, not to mention the internet is barely functional on this damn thing.

                  Just bought a new battery for my HTC. Hopefully this'll fix the power level problem.

                      Well, that is certainly an ideal time to be coming up on an upgrade.

                        Just picked up an S4 this afternoon, I don't plan on rooting it or anything crazy like that so my question is...

                        Any suggestions as far as useful websites regarding the S4 and getting to know the ins & outs of it, or maybe tips?

                        Or maybe some suggested apps & whatnot?

                              My HTC One X+ takes the cake. I started getting the "No Sim Card Found" problem about a month ago. It's unbearable and keeps getting worse.

                              Basically every 15-30 minutes the phone stops detecting the sim card and the only way around it is to reboot the phone. So there are times when the phone is in my pocket for an hour and the card has gone out but I don't know about it, I reboot the thing and have missed several texts and a few important phone calls - especially for work. .

                              I love the phone itself when the sim card is actually detected.

                                WOW! The exact same thing was happening to me when I first got the phone, one minute it worked next time I pulled it out...nothing! FRUSTRATING! The restart thing I found only worked for a while then of course it would happen again. I found actually taking the sim card out, putting it back in then restarting works MUCH better.
