[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Yea, it has been melting significantly. I needed it to so that I could go to work. However, where ever you dug your car out is the only parking space that's available in most neighborhoods. I noticed that as recently as yesterday but at least we have that storm behind us. Thanks for asking.

So I finally have figured out the source of my Bluetooth drain, turns out it was either the Spotify or Discover app. I'll probably try adding them both back separately to figure out which one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
That sucks man. I downloaded Spotify about a week or so ago, I remembered why I didn't like it to begin with. I prefer pandora

My phone is taking a dump on me. The charging port has broken twice on this thing, and it's so hard to find a place to work on the M8. Most places say, "it's too hard to open and fix." It is very difficult to open up and replace parts, or I'd do it myself. I found a place to replace the charging port for $45 . Not so bad, however I'm probably looking to get a new phone in the coming months this year because it's coming up on 2 years since I've had it.

Have any of you looked at the nextbit robin? Looks like a pretty interesting device and I like the features incorporated with it. It will come with an unlocked bootloader with cloud storage for free, total storage available out of the box is 132 GB. A verizon version is coming out in April. I also think the development on this thing is going to be amazing, considering the people in charge of the company is all for having an unlocked bootloader.

Also, how are everyone's nexus' treating you? They look good as well, the only thing shunning me away from them are the camera quality, battery life, and lack expandable storage. I also like the moto x but the 16 gb limit is killing me. Other than those phones I'm seeing nothing on Verizon coming out this year that looks interesting to me, at least at this point in time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Love my N6 and by your comment that's why I prefer wireless charging. Sorry to hear that about the M8 but it's nice to see you back here

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I'm always around! I just never have anything useful to say, been super busy this year and haven't had much time for phone hobbies.

Can't wireless charge with my M8, but my S3 never had any issues with the charging port. I think the first time I had it replaced the guy didn't do a very good job securing the port in place. Whenever I try to plug it in it just pushes the plug back into the phone behind the casing. Really annoying.

Glad the nexus 6 is operating, it's still a little too big for what I'm looking for. Looking for something in between 5-6". My friend has the Nexus 6 and he loves it as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Feel free to step in at anytime. As you can see the pub has become pretty dead. Yea i have put the N6, N5 and the S3 side by side. Once you get used to the bigger screen, using the smaller one just doesn't work

Nexus 6 via Pure Nexus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I think 5.2" is the sweet spot. I have small hands and the M8 is actually perfect in size for what I want. Much bigger and I won't be able to use it in 1 hand.

The nexus 6 isn't bad though, 64 gigs for $399. I just don't know where I can find the Verizon variant at. The one on motorola's website doesn't have a CDMA band right?

eidt: Nevermind, checked the spec sheet and it does have CDMA bands. Very interesting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
There are only two variants. International and United States versions. I have the 64gb version in cloud white.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:

Nexus 6 via Pure Nexus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
What's up man? How's life treating you? Sucks to hear about your M8. Hope your next phone is better suited for the long haul.

I haven't read anything about the Robin, but the name is familiar. I'm enjoying my 5X although development is very slow compared to what I'm used to with the Incredible and S3. I'd definitely say wait and see what comes available that best suits your needs.

And about the Super Bowl, it was a fantastic defensive game but wow that was hard to watch either team's offense.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XxD34THxX:
Yeah. The only reason the Broncos won is because of their Rock Hard Defense.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
While true the Panthers played like crap. That was one heck of a defensive effort on the part of the Broncos though

Life is going ok, pretty busy lately and a pretty hectic year but it's all good.

Ya I just don't know about it. Repairs on the device already set me back $100 this passed year. Other than that it still runs very well. I was hoping to squeak out another year or so out of it, but really I'm just worried that more hardware problems will continue to happen. Other than that development is ok on the phone, not nearly as great as the S3 development was, but we're still getting updates from a few developers on a regular basis.

The Nextbit looks like a pretty cool device. You get a lot of features for $399. Plus having it be unlocked out of the box will be a nice feature and I won't have to worry about a possible unlocked bootloader in the future. The GSM version is coming out 2 months before the CDMA version, so that'll give some time for some dust to settle and get some solid reviews. I still can't believe people paid $350 for a device from a startup company without any sort of device to compare it to. I mean the only truly successful kick-starter campaign I can think of is pebble's, and I doubt this thing is going to be much of a game changer. If it turns out to be a complete bust, which is totally possible, I think I'll probably hold out for another year with the M8 and hope it doesn't break again.

And that super bowl game was really boring. That was the probably the worst offensive display I've ever seen win the super bowl, and the panthers decided to play the worst game they had the entire season yesterday. If the panthers played like they did all season they would've slaughtered the broncos. Still, it's nice seeing Manning win his second super bowl, hope he goes out with it and retires instead of trying again next season. What a great way to end his career. I wish I bet on the game.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I'm hopeful this year begins some changes for me but I'm taking it in stride. Sounds like you have a solid plan just have to see how things fare with these phones. My S3 is still chugging along, it is my dedicated podcast streamer now, so I understand using a device to the max.

Haha the pay out for this Super Bowl would have been sweet! Looking forward to baseball and basketball though, especially weekend primetime NBA games.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I just put clean rom back on the old S3, I was trying to help someone figure something out. Sadly I don't even use it anymore. It's basically an unlocked and unused device collecting dust. But I will never sell it. My even older HTC thunderbolt isn't used either. That poor thing has horrible battery life however

Welllll my s4 has a broken LCD, but is still on firmware that can be rooted and unlocked. The s5 I thought someone was going to buy, so that one I could. My s6 got the fingerprint scanner messed up from the car accident. There's a deep scratch on it and it gives a message saying to clean off the scanner.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Oh wow. I did forget about the accident, my apologies there. The S4 may be worth it to someone though. My daughter has the AT&T S4 with a locked bootloader. It would work so much better if it was unlocked

1-month Sub for Google Play Music is half off right now at $5, I'm good up until Feb 2017, thanks to the $50 nexus credit and Opinion Rewards haha. I was using Spotify getting the student discount for $5 but it expired and I have to jump through hoops to renew it...screw that. Besides, Spotify was the app causing ridiculous Bluetooth battery drain. Hope Google's app has a decent selection as well.

Yea I did see that myself. Not a bad deal. Picked up a netgear nighthawk router at walmart on clearance. I thought I was seeing things but then verified it and bought it. I used to have the Netgear nighthawk ac1900 but now I have the 2300

Anyone take a look at the new phones coming out? I like what both Samsung and LG are doing. Honestly imo, I'm really digging the way the HTC midrange phone looks as well.

Samsung brought back micro SD card support with waterproofing. About time.

LG made a modular chin on their phone, They have an audio module and camera module you can buy separately. You can replace the battery and swap out modules whenever you need to. This could have huge future implications, who knows what modules they could add to it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I did take a look at the LG G5. Looks pretty good. The S7 is probably my gfs next device. She loves the SD card slot option. I let her know about the G5 also. She's had the S3, S4, and current S5. She doesn't do any of the rooting or unlocking options like most of us do. I've tried to talk her into rooting but she won't hear of it.

Haven't looked much at the HTC devices. I do miss my old thunderbolt. It's been quite awhile since I've had it but I'm loving the Nexus 6

Nexus 6 via Pure Nexus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
MWC is probably my favorite conference each year next to IO. There's definitely a good start to the year from phones to the new gaming API. Both G5 and S7 look like solid devices. I think the S7 looks best overall plus Samsung had a well done conference. I'm glad to see them move past their obnoxious conferences from couple years ago.

Now I can't wait to see how the Snapdragon 820 performs in both phones. My eyes are tuned towards the next Nexus so I'd like to hear positive things about Qualcomm's latest chip.

Edit: LG is doing something different and that's cool to see. Their modular G5 is not for me but it's a nice change if done right.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
LG is doing something very cool.

Of course the modules for it are going to be absurdly expensive, but future generations of phones could all have modules. It would be so cool to be able to change characteristics of a phone based on what you need it to do at any given time.

If this takes off the sky's the limit for what phones can do, you can theoretically have a dslr camera module with interchangeable lenses. A pulse oximeter if you work in a hospital. You could even have a glucometer built into it to check your blood sugar levels of you're a diabetic.

I'm glad to see a reputable company giving this a shot first.

You guys are running marshmallow, right? I just loaded the most recent stock lollipop image on my phone. Haven't flashed a rom on my phone yet because I enjoy the stock rom so much and lollipop is running ridiculously well on it. There is a ported marshmallow rom that looks solid, very much how scott made cleanrom. I'm really interested in flashing it seeing how much better lollipop is running for me over kitkat. I think ART as default android runtime is making a huge difference on my phone.

I've read reports that marshmallow gives better battery life over lollipop for a number of reasons, just wondering what you guys are experiencing.

Also I'm really liking TWRP 3.0. I think it's running much better than it used to. I've never been a fan of TWRP, but after phil stopped his work on philz recovery I really didn't have another choice. I themed it green, makes me happy when I'm using it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Running MM and mostly digging it. I only used ART in it's infancy with KitKat on the S3 but this 5X handles what I need it to do. I use Chroma and ElementalX kernel and love the combo. My primary complaint is that I would prefer more ram so that apps stay in memory longer. The 5X reloads apps fairly often in my experience.

My battery life is consistent regardless of custom kernel or rom, I get 4-5.5/6 hours SOT regularly over wifi, same as without root. Overall, a significant upgrade from my S3. I think someone whom has used several devices would notice more issues with responsiveness. Oh yea, EX's Sweep2Sleep (not MM specific) is fresh as well.

Looks awesome man. There was some great weather today, but I spent it at work haha I have only gone to TopGolf in Houston and that was amazing for a newbie like myself. Hope you had fun!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
That's odd. I see the 5x only has 2gb of ram. The Nexus 6 has 3gb of ram and it's an older device. I wonder why they did that? The S3 had 2gb of ram

Nexus 6 via Pure Nexus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Google just skimped on the ram, they should've done 3. It's an 808 processor with moderate specs all the way around. Tbh, I think 2 gb's should've been enough, but I think the 5x has some memory handling issues.

The international s3 only has 1gb of ram.
