I think that's why there are so many faithfuls. Once you invest in that ecosystem whether it's android or iOS, it's hard to switch to another. I made the switch from the iPhone 6 to the Nexus 6. Wasn't a hard transition since I still have my iPad. I do miss iMessage but even with T-MO, it's a hit or miss with getting text messages either way
I usually lurk around the iOS thread and see you post here and there. Saw that you couldn't hang with team android lol
Nah b I can definitively run with y'all I just can't actually have a Android phone

Straight talk upped the limit before they throttle you to 5GB.
So $45 for unlimited minutes, text, and 5GB.

Only happens when I use Textra. Switched to Messenger and everything has been fine. Sprint is God awful though. I left them over a year ago and my girl left in Nov. Nothing worse than those 3G struggle speeds in a major metro area. I don't know how people put up with it.

Anyone have recommendations for apps with Chromecast support? Got HD Cinema and TVMC so far. Looking for something similar to those with TV shows.

Have you tried out Showbox or Popcorn Time yet? Those are the only other two that I know of. Actually never heard of TVMC so I'm gonna have to check that out.With showbox you need to download a companion app called Growbox to get chromecast support

Out of curiosity, where does the $1 come into play? I thought it was free on the play store.

If you go into the settings of the app you should see an option to upgrade to the pro version which gets rid of the ads.

Nah I do, but the apps so good that I'd be willing to give them the dollar anyways. If they fix this texting issue thing.

Adaway is the one I use, blocks ads system wide, not just in browsers. Gotta be rooted though.

[COLOR=#red]4.5-5 hours of on screen time is more than enough for me for the average day. The way I look at it, if I'm using more than that on a consistent basis then I'm probably not doing enough worthwhile stuff in my life. Messaging people all day, surfing the net all day, playing games, I don't have the luxury of doing that because I'm too busy doing things that's either making me money or setting me up to make more money and becoming successful.
This is why I can go to a Porsche dealership show the salesman proof of where I signed my job offer and he sets me up with a unrestricted test drive of a $200k 911 Turbo S.
I know some of y'all like "da hell that got to do with OST And I'll say I'm just encouraging some of Yall to get off your phones 24/7 and do things to be great, and by doing so I almost guarantee phone battery life will not be too much of an issue anymore.[/COLOR]
