Thanks. You could say that this is the case made for people who don't like cases... No I'm not rooted. I'm thinking about it but not really in a rush to do it.

This time once it's full do the same test again and the percentage shouldn't move which usually means that you are going to get great battery life for that day. Now this is just what I do. It's not guaranteed but it's worth a shot. Basically when I do this my percentage drops by 1 every 7 or 8 minutes with the screen on.

Props on this...this is how I get my Battery life maxed...glad to see someone else is using the same method!

Don't know if you figured it out already, but I think since everyone (except for those who grandfathered unlimited) is being switched over to the Family Share !! that it comes free. Pretty sure the app comes stock.

Edit: I was wrong, gotta sign up for that !! still. Stupid. Anyway, there's an app called FoxFi, works like a charm.

You probably have Sprint Connection Optimizer on.

Okay few questions

1. Is there a way to have your EQ set for everything. Like for instance the rap setting for music and pandora?
2. Is there a way to save your EQ for when you have your headset plugged in and with your headset out?
3. In stock music player how the hell do you have the options of artist, album, song show up? I have them all checked out but it never shows up. I always have to go to Search to see all artists.
4. Is there a way to add songs to whatever else is playing Without having to make a play list. Best example I can give is with windows media player on the pc where you right click and choose add to play list

Thanks

yessir got mine in today, verizon. this phone is a beast. battery life is good too.

stoked!

i can answer question 3... on mine there is a button when you see the album, on the bottom right corner just off the click the snow leaf lookin thing, it'll bring you to something called "music square" no club what this is, but on the top, songs, artists, album, etc bar on top. im still figuring this !! out myself..

Ah okay. You can actually turn that snow flake on and off. It's called Music Square. Went into my settings and saw it was off now all is well. Thanks!
