Alright phone nerds, I need assistance.

  • karen lotz
    That's pretty dumb. Maybe take it to a Verizon store and see if they can take care of it unless you feel comfortable taking the phone apart. At the worst maybe they'll replace it?

    Yeah. Like I said it's not really the end of the world, just kind of an annoyance. Someone posted to that guy's message the sticker is there as a "dimmer" of sorts for the LED light but I guess it does it's job a little too well. Currently I have it set so every 5 min if I haven't read a text it vibrates again. None of my texts/emails are that important anyways haha.

    So just realized my upgrade is in October and not December like I orginally thought... anyone know of any new phones that might be out around then and have some info on them? Bionic is sweet though and I might end up just getting that especially if the price drops a little.

    It does look pretty nice. I'm just a huge fan of Droid's though. Pretty cool it had beats by dre I have that on my PC and I really love the sound quality.

    I imagine the heats would be a huge drain on the battery. Not sure though.

    Pretty nice that 4G is in Lima and Toledo.... sadly I am about 35 miles from both those cities.

    Are you in Fremont or Fostoria? I think its one of those but don't remember correctly.

    Anyway, I was driving through Fostoria last Saturday to a scramble and had LTE in parts of town.

    Its cool :P. I figure I will have 4G when I'm in Findlay anyway so its not that big of a deal. Really wish the 4G would come to Findlay or BG then I probably would get it for sure but doubt that happens anytime soon.
  • karen lotz
    Yeah I haven't been in BG since I got my phone but Toledo's signal is supposed to reach down that far. Findlay would be a good spot for the next expansion in the area.

    Eh I rarely ever go to BG but hopefully Lima's signal will reach up to Findlay lol. And idk if Findlay would it since its in Lima. Tiffin probably wouldn be a good place for the next expansion though.

    According to the LTE coverage map, I live in a covered area but do not have 4G. I have to drive about 5 minutes west and I am covered.

    Not really complaining though, since 4G really chugs battery

    That sucks. How bad is the 4G on battery life? You have the Bionic correct?
  • gport_tennis
    Where I live I get a better 4g signal than 3g

    What's the best app for rebooting? Blackberry has QuickPull which you could set to reset your phone once a day to free memory, etc. I searched the market and found Fast Reboot and Fast Reboot premium which allows you to schedule a daily reset. Any other suggestions?
