I am expecting a bill between 14-30 dollars for my GFS phone. The Galaxy SIII is a very cool phone, and I spent all day rooting it to maximize battery, and features for my gf. We'll see if I'm right. Most of this stuff is 10 bucks in taxes.

Rom Toolbox Pro has a freeze setting. Wonder if this stops the apps from trying to start again? I'll check into air blocker. Also need to get to know Toolbox pro a bit better, along with Titanium Backup which also has a Freeze feature.

Got it. Still, it's quick, I hate Chrome, and it seems a bit faster then FF.Getting to like the start page, vs. using bookmarks. We'll see. I've only got 8 gigs of ram, but, even with that little bit, FF seems to run fine.

Trying Opera again. Their business is located on Highway 92, as you turn to go south onto 101.

DU Battery Saver also has a Optimize button that pretty much does everything you need with one button push.

Du Battery Saver has a monitor that lets you know what percentage of the processor each program is using. You can then go in and turn them off.

That's the problem. Without rooting, a lot of pre-installed software starts on startup, and can't be removed, or turned off. Rooting gives you the ability to remove a lot of stuff you couldn't, and or use a program to shut it off, or freeze it, and keep it from starting.

Actually not without root access. With Sprint, Verizon, T Mobile they load a lot of crap you can't turn off without rooting. Plus, programs that can control this stuff, can't do it, without root access. Odin works just fine. Have to research your phone. If you want to use Verizon or sprint...

Since my MixZing app for music sucks juice, I plugged it in for about an hour. Currently, at 10 PM or so, I'm at 70 % battery. That's about 20 hours... ROOTING IS GREAT...

With their plan, and a monthly payment plan, I can come in under my Sprint cost right now, save some money, and have their setup. My only concern is too many google techs start out, then get dropped... Frankly, thought, this is so good, I don't see that happening.

It's 2:44 PM. 5 3/4 hours on 25% of the battery. That works out to 22 hours of battery, thanks to rooting, and software. No worries about going the day, or needing a charger all the time...

550 For a Nexus 6 with enough storage for my music. Appears Ting goes for a lower price point, 9 dollars for my gf's useage. Looks like Data is about twice the cost of Google Fi with Ting.

Fi? Link? My gf uses the cell phone for emergencies only. Data only to update programs.

Bottom line is with all the junk Samsung and Sprint put on my phone, I have to car charge it daily. Rooting it, and freezing, or deleting their added, junk, cpu and battery eating software, the phone will last for days with the 3200 battery. Without that, I would be looking at a Mugen, huge...

Sprint has worked fine for me in the Bay Area. Since GF doesn't travel much, should be ok. I'm thinking my GF's bill, with her usage should be between 0 and 15 dollars a month. I'll test the phone, make sure it works, since it's a limited warranty phone. Since the S3 was a flagship at the...

Hi I'm going to give Ting a try. I'm paying 60 dollars a month for Sprint. With my use patterns, Ting says my bill should be around 23.00 a month. I just ordered a Samsung Galaxy S3 for 130 dollars from them. This is for my girlfriend that hardly ever uses her phone, and needs to upgrade from...

I've rooted my Samsung Mega 6.3. It's been a great move for the following reasons: Software that can have root access can either remove, or freeze applications I don't use, that are draining resources. Most of my data downloads are programs updating themselves, programs I would remove if I had...

Music?

Enjoyed Mr. Robot. Thank you for the suggestion.

Check that. new Model is 2.8 to 60.

Tesla insane mode: 691 horse. 0-60 in 3.2 seconds. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=tesla+insane+button+video&FORM=VIRE5#view=detail&mid=9C520ACD31BF1806AAE29C520ACD31BF1806AAE2

Yes, the cage was run into the front of the car, and used to mount the suspension and shocks, to, ala Nascar coil over shocks. Same with the rear end. The guy building the cage was really good. You had to really look to notice it, and it was NOT in the way.

Merc: I had similar search issues, where programs that were easy to find in 7 or 8 were very difficult to get to in 10. Changing the desktop background was a real pain as well. Hence, 10 no longer.

It's only a 5.5" screen. Mine is 6.3" and uses an otter case. Don't currently see a reason to get a smaller phone. Don't carry it around the house like a normal phone.

I don't like 10. 8.1 is enough of a pain to find simple things like background, etc. 10 seems to add another layer of searching, much like Vista did from XP. 7 to 11 for me...

One Plus 2?

Everytime I try and install the updates for 7, 10 starts downloading. Going to try it on the Dell first.

Oddly enough the Dell downstairs does not show as eligible for being upgraded to 10. I might try it on that...

Wait time on a call is 310 minutes. Chat isn't working. Sounds like I'm not the only one that is lit up.;-)

Yes, noticed the slow connection to updates. I finally got into MSFT, and then checked the updates for 7. I hit the button to download updates, and I start downloading Windows 10. I hit cancel. Go back. Windows 10 is not checked. So far, I'm unable to download updates. It auto downloads 10, even...

CHEATING;-)

I want to see your speedtest results.;-)

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4529382406 I wanted to check my connection speed and the above is what I got. We are currently paying for a package they no longer offer, which was 105mbps. Affordable 180 mbps is a bit of a shocker.

Check out the OnePlus One. I was looking at Ting, and this phone has incredible specs, and an incredible, sort of hacked version of Android. Plus it's only 300 dollars. https://oneplus.net/one#overview

Merc: After rooting your phone, how much of Sprint's extra programs did you get rid of?

I have to use Puffin, and go to KRON's bay area traffic over view before starting off. Even today, 580 going to Tracy is a solid redline, and 101 south from Mendicino is also red. Often times the bridges are likewise 0-10 miles an hour. Waze doesn't really give you a bay area overview, or, I...

I'm getting the urge to root my Samsung Mega again, after the new laws this year. It's on Sprint. Experiences? Ideas? How do you backup your data prior to rooting? Also what is an "unlocked Verizon phone?" I see then new HTC phones listed that way all the time. What would be the best way to...

There are certain functions that would be nice. Since I have a Samsung Mega, I don't usually carry it around the house when doing work here. I do have some very nice watches, and do wear those. It would be nice if the watch actually did what Surfline is trying to get them to do: Show weather...

Hi Anyone have any experience with either this line of laptops? Costco has them relatively cheap, and the specs look OK, but they need SSD's.

I sold my old phone for 80 dollars on ebay, after pulling the chips. Kind of amazed it went for that much. One mans' trash can be anothers' prize.

Merc's right. I was given one, printed a couple pictures. The ink was more expensive then Gold, IIRC, by weight;-(

Awhile back, I went through looking at printers for that sort of work. I found pretty extensive support and parts for the 4000 series, and their price points particularly attractive. It was so good, that I ended up getting my 4000N fixed for 80.00, and haven't looked back. I'll be surprised if...

I've been looking at upgrading my Panasonic laptops into this century. I've been waiting for either a reasonably priced i3 or i5, or the refurbished Lenovo Thinkpad. The core duo processors start at about 150, and they come in some very expensive packages, like the X200. At about 200 (these...

Thank you!

DD: What is the SSD you put in the Dell? It FIRES. Boots 8.1 wo periphs, in 10 seconds. Shuts down in 4.

Not to mention that mechanical drives are going to have to become MUCH more reliable to justify the possibility of lost data. Once SSD's are viable for large volume storage, it would be idiotic not to use them for backups.

You can add Dell Inspirions to that as well. Tried to work on one last night. Trackpad made it a total pain.
