This htc one m8 is rather boring. I wish I would have went with the s5. it works well, GPS works battery is rather decent.

There was a few people that got them I read about. I was not impressed. They said it also is pretty hackable and if you want a true private phone, you aren’t getting what you think you are with it.

My only real gripe with the GS5 is the fucking charging port. It has that stupid dust flap thing that always gets in the way and it uses a two connector USB 3.0 charging cable that is impossible to fucking plug in. If you’re doing it in the dark, forget it.

mY gs5 had an unreal battery when i got it…

now it sucking again, i probably downloaded a shitty app or 10 that are killing it.

Seriously, I’d get 5 hours of screen time and 25 hours on a charge… now i get 3 screen, and 8 total. Ugh

Doesn’t that support wireless charging?

The lightning cable Apple came out with was one of the best creations. That thing goes in any way possible. Haha

I wish I didn’t stumble upon this…

I hate the onscreen buttons for these…they just don’t function like the real deal.

Is anybody gunning for the One Plus one? I’m hoping my phone gets run over as an excuse to.

Heard a lot of issues with it, have you checked the 2014 moto x?

I need something with global 4g. or I woulda picked up Moto X a long time ago.

What issues do you speak of? Although cyanogenmod just dropped support and the Chinese can’t write quality software if their rice depended on it

here is a list

biggest problem is the touch screen issue that still happens to this day, rebooting the phone make it work for a little while then it just stops again

Just switched from my old iPhone 4s to the dark side. Picked up an LG G3

What cool things should I do to it?

When I open up a new tab on the internet it puts it in the back/minimizes it rather than making it the page I want to view, I’d like to change it if I can.

use chrome for a web browser, did you pick up a gpad with it?

Yeah I believe its Google chrome,for browsing. I don’t k ow what a gpad is? Lol

I was told by the sales guy that there’s something I can download on my home computer that acts like a cloud for my music and will automatically upload them to my phone?

I think it’s time for a new phone. My M8 I’d tweaking out randomly. I’m not sure how much longer it will last. It’s the 2nd time I have to send it into htc for review. What’s good battery life and signal? Does anything come work the mini hdmi port anymore?

^Chromecast everything brah.
@Gus just picked up the Droid Turbo I believe…stupid good battery life. Or look at the S6 Active.

Whomp whomp

Sweet, someone is totally going to steal my pictures of my dog now!

This really comes down to poor update/upgrade processes where the carrier fingers their butt with the updates. I really wish they’d just come straight from google.

I didn’t really understand the part where messenger was the default MMS. The article made it sound like it wasn’t affected, but then it was.

Or you combine this with a local exploit or sandbox escape and you own the entire phone :slight_smile:
