    No, they are all private and not shared unless you tell it to do otherwise. You'll get notifications that they are uploaded and ready to share, but you don't have to share them.

    If you're touching lightly on the screen as you scroll, so the phone may interpret that as a tap instead of a press and drag, so as Deathwing said, make sure you are pressing firmly enough. Blu's phones are decent, inexpensive phones, so they may have cut some corners on the touchscreen. The...

    the G+ app can automatically send every image on your phone to Drive, even ones you donloaded instead of just pictures you took. I think that also may be baked in to the Google camera and photo app nowadays.

    That's a shortcut that was built in to android starting around 4.2 IIRC. Whether it still works on non stock android depends on how much fuckery the manufacturer engages in. Blu keeps things pretty much stock, so anything that would work on the same version of stock android should work for...

    That was fucking annoying as hell. I calls from 3 people that I do computer work for asking me to make house calls to fix their internet that morning. Once I noticed that my internet was down and that I couldn't get to any Time Warner site on my phone, I was glad to tell them that it was on...

    Chrome update 37 WTF

    A while ago I switched to Chrome Beta on my Surface Pro 2 to get version 37 because it has better support for high density displays, so maybe it's related to those changes.

    Doesn't matter much anyway, as the servers are melting as usual when a new event starts. For the last 2+ hours it seems that any time it has to connect to the server it has a better than 50% chance of crashing. The one time I managed to get to the lightning arena, it spent about 5 minutes...

    IIRC, on stock you get the quick settings by pulling down the notification shade with 2 fingers. Don't know if HTC messed with that though. Another possibility is pulling it down from one side or the other, which is a common feature on most roms.

    Go to Menu>Player Info and you can edit your note. I always accept anyone from rerolled, my ID is in the google doc. I usually run a 6* Aisha (finally maxed lvl so I can work on SBB) or sometimes a 5* Lillith.

    I don't think I could go back to having to care about what phones my carrier sells. Being able to pop my sim into whatever phone I want (assuming compatible bands) is so much nicer.

    I've got a Surface Pro 2 (the updated version with the i5-4300U) and as usual, battery life varies greatly depending on what you're doing. If I'm just streaming Netflix or browsing, I can usually get around 7 hours depending on the screen brightness.

    While there are a few little complaints I have about the Nexus 4, my primary ones are mediocre battery life and storage. I got a 16GB model and I have to shuffle files around (nandroid backups, roms, music) more that I'd like, but that's more of a convenience problem. Its battery life is the...

    4.2.2 is respectable, I think that's what my parents' phones run as well. As far as upgrades go, I plan on upgrading every 2 years or so like I used to, I just have to be smarter about it. I bought a Nexus 4 when I went postpaid last March, which was a step behind the flagships at the time...

    I used a team of 6* Aisha (lead), 5* Rashil, 5* Lira, 5* Lillith, 5* Tiara with a Grahdens friend to grab Cayena. Got her on my 3rd run. Got Lico in 2 runs but it was an oracle, meh. Still working on Serin.

    That may have been my Cyborg Lillith II, max level, max BB. I can't wait until she gets a 6* version. Usually run a 6* Aisha nowadays as leader, but I can throw Lillith up as leader if people would prefer that.

    My parents both bought Blu Life Ones when they ditched Sprint and went with postpaid, because the Nexus 4 had just sold out when they finally made up their mind. It's a solid phone and I have to give credit to Blu for not screwing around with android much, keeping the software nearly AOSP. For...

    It's really hard to beat the Moto G for lower end phones. I would suggest getting the 16GB model as 8GB one will probably have only 5-6GB usable and that can run out pretty fast.

    The 10GB is only for the first year, then it goes down to 4GB. For those waiting on the Note 4, you might want to wait and see if the rumors of the Moto built 5.9" Nexus end up being true. http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/07...nexus-phablet/

    Also depends on signal strength, weak signals can have a huge impact on battery life. That still looks pretty damn good for light usage.

    So I finally managed to do the miracle totem and 6 star Aisha. Barely squeaked it out using just about all my items, but I went back a second time with an extra healer and Grahdens from someone and it went a lot easier. I'm currently at level 75 and my main team is: 6* Drake Queen Aisha...

    Did you get a case for it? Supposedly the plastic used in the sandstone black version is a bit soft and the official case can chip it around the corners.

    Iphones use IPS panels, which don't suffer from possible burn in like the AMOLED screens can. Both screen types have their advantages. AMOLED uses less power, has better contrast, better response times and such, but the organic materials have a shorter lifespan and eventually start breaking down.

    That will depend entirely on how good Sprint's network is in his area. A friend of mine pays around $40 for 2 lines through Ting, but network coverage is mediocre.

    If you're looking for a basic android phone that will still get updates, I'd suggest the Moto G. it's $199 for the 16 GB version on the Play Store. Saving $20 for the 8 GB version isn't worth it. This is assuming Tracfone is GSM instead of CDMA. I don't think you can buy the CDMA version unlocked.

    Unfortunately it seems that every time they do a major patch there are problems and their servers shit themselves for a few days. Get your account created as soon as possible, so you can cash in on the compensation keys and gems.

    It sounds like the Asus transformer book might be an option. A friend of mine just got one a few weeks ago and is pretty happy with it. It's not terribly powerful but you do get full windows 8.1 and the included keyboard is decent. It's only $350 or so.
