Time again for a new phone
So I'm eligible to upgrade my cell phone again August 1st. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S2 through Sprint and was ready to get the S4. Now I see that LG is set to release their Optimus G2 sometime in August.
http://www.engadget.com/2013/07/09/lg-optimus-g2-leak/ I've never considered LG, but I'm intrigued by what I've read. Has anyone else looked at this and is it worth waiting another month or so for the LG? Also, does anyone in the KC area have any experience with Sprint's LTE 4G? Is coverage still spotty? |

I sent my Moto X back because the wood was peeling and I think what I'm going to do is get a new Nexus 5 off of ebay for a reasonable price, or at least try to get one for a reasonable price. Then I'm going to wait for Microsoft to release this Lumia 940 I just read about and try out Windows 10. I just hope it's not released with the 805 since it's probably not set for release til 2015 and any flagship released in 2015 I would hope came with the 64 bit snapdragons.

Lollipop OTAs are officially rolling out to Nexus devices starting today. Factory images are out with some info here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/11...2013-9-and-10/ I'm hoping someone will get an OTA ZIP running in the next couple hours, but I'll be setting this up tonight on my N5 regardless. |

I don't mind Verizon's higher price at all, with the coverage they provide.

don't get a windows phone if you are a google user. No gmail app. No google voice app. No google maps app.
I picked up a cheap lumia 520 and found that I couldn't survive without these apps. Especially google voice which all third party apps have been disabled for on the windows phones now.

Yes they are.
I just did the same thing. Not by choice, really. I was on a friend's account. His friend ditched the line, so I did them a favor awhile back and took over that line. I had Straight Talk at the time. He quit paying the bill. I'm gonna miss that LG G3. I'm back to the Note 3 now. |

I haven't been a Verizon customer since 2007.

I just bought a LG G3 off Craigslist because my Note 2 started behaving erratically.
My Note 2 was still under warranty but I wanted the G3 anyway. So I call to have the Note 2 replaced (so I can sell it) and while she was reading out all the BS they make you listen to she mentioned if it was found to have any user related damage or water damage I'd have $299 added to my bill. I got to thinking about it and I did walk home in a rainstorm about a month after I got it and it got a little wet but I didn't think anything of it because it worked fine. So I decided to take it apart and check the Liquid Damage Indicator stickers on the inside of the phone just to make sure. They hadn't been tripped, but after putting it back together it wont turn on now. The replacement has already been shipped, I cant decide if I should refuse delivery and be stuck with this paperweight, or try my luck at sending it back and hope they cant tell I took it apart... |
