Is pocket exclusivity for phones the norm, or is it just me? maybe that's why people are more prone to scratching.
I've got too much stuff for one pocket. Keys, knife, lighter, flash drives, gum, sometimes a pack
I leave my phone on my right pocket, nothing else ever goes in there. The left has keys and other shit. I usually have cargo pants of some sort so I have additional pockets to store crap like my power bank, sunglasses and other shit.
Keys shouldn't scratch gorilla glass anyway, but rocks and sand will. A single grain of sand in your pocket in a position where it manages to rub against the glass = scratches.
I also always carry a pocket full of sand in case I get in a fight
The only thing that covers my phone is dust and lint from my pockets. there is never sand or rocks in it. I usually empty my pockets a lot.
It's much easier to replace a damaged screen protector than it is to replace a damaged screen. Regardless of how tough Gorilla Glass is supposed to be, I'd rather not take the chance.
I've used my phone at the beach with sandy fingers and I've somehow never managed a scratch on it. :v:
I still have this glass screen protector that I haven't even used yet..
I never have had a screen protector on any device I have owned and probably only have made one scratch.
My Samsung tab pro 8.4 arrive today, thanks to John Lewis' unusually fast delivery service. :dance:
Have to say, I'm fucking impressed with it so far. Just gotta get used to typing with it.
Dont suppose anyone could recommend me a good eReader app?
I got the Material Design Play Store update. It's such a clusterfuck - just a mishmash of old design and new.
Why can't Google finish things before releasing them?
[QUOTE=Vallux;45658807]Gotsta ask, why no HTC One M8? Got it myself, upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy S3. So pretty.So so pretty. And fast. Surprisingly good battery too.[/QUOTE]
Came from a Galaxy Nexus so that was a no brainer upgrade. Pretty much everything is a noticeable improvement. And the front facing stereo speakers and audio hardware are very loud and clear too. Just a great overall phone, with its only "weakness" is its MP count, but even then, I never need more than 4 MP anyhow. 5 MP was the least of my concerns with the Galaxy Nexus camera.

It's super annoying. I want to look at app updates, I tap on the what's new part of the page to expand it. The first thing I see is the description so I'd have to scroll down to see it. Super annoying.

Because google are really attention deficit and lazy. They start a new project after they get halfway through the previous one
So I'm finally doing something more than just rooting since my old Droid 2. Fucking christ, flashing a ROM on that thing was so much easier than this s4. There seems to be so many revisions with Verizon that every article says it's outdated and points to another.

I still think its a miracle Google Voice still exists. I literally hasn't changed since I started using it in 2011. I remember there being huge fanfare and everyone being super stoked and taking up invites. Now nobody mentions it and its in a perpetual state of "maintenance mode". I wish they would have found a way to get MMS support, but I suppose Hangouts is replacing it anyway so....
Oh christ what. My M8 has decided that if there is an error in sending a text message, it'll then send the text message repeatedly till I completely turn the phone off.
Why isn't there a "close all" tabs for Chrome?? I don't like Dolphin that much for some reason, but it does have that feature, so I'm sticking to it.
Any tips on what to do with my new galaxy note 10.1? Apart from the emulators, which...man they're the best. I just got around to customizing it too, but now the battery runs out faster, which I guess I have to watch out for.
Also, I bought it mainly for college, note taking and such...though I still can't find a proper app. The S-note seemed perfect, since you could handwrite and type seamlessly...but they sort of fucked it up with the new update. Papyrus is ok, but I'd like a word processor like word/evernote, with the ability to handwrite/draw. A Onenote that allows handwritting would be great, but android's one note isnt that great; i cant drag text around like you can on the PC
I am looking for a good white or light theme for PA for the Nexus 5. I kinda got bored of the dark.

I only ever take pictures of my cats or selfies for Instagram. The MP count is pretty insignificant on my list of pros and cons. I suppose the rear camera could be better, but I dunno. It's got this cool 3D tilt and pan stuff!
The only reason I have scratches on my Note 3 is because of the metal button thing on my jeans pocket. I can't notice it at all when I have the screen on, so it doesn't matter that much.
Does this listing look legit to you guys? [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-IN-BOX-LG-G3-LG-D851-32GB-4G-LTE-BLK-GOOD-IMEI-Tmobile-GLOBAL-GSM-/221521396557?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item3393b4434d[/url]

worst case is you have to get a refund through ebay if you get scammed.
Guys it's 3:45 in the morning and I have a very urgent question.
I separated notification sound from ringer sound on my HTC one. Ringer sound is on full because my family thinks I must be available every living second of the day and night. Since I don't want any Internet cunt to wake me up at night I put my notifications volume to 0, silent, all that shit.
Yet the time is 3:45 and I'm god damn awake. How? It fucking vibrated like two or three times. When I picked up my phone I saw three notifications : google+, Gmail and what the fuck ever, I don't remember. YouTube or some shit.
You can probably see this coming, but the question is this:
How in the living FUCK is this possible and can I fix it? If no, what is the best way to disable all sound except the god damn phone ringer?
I tried a quick Google, but I just fucking woke up and I couldn't find it.
