Just download them all from your free Google+ backup. You do have a Google+ backup, right?

With 2013 Moto X's being as cheap as they are, there's not really a good reason to get a Moto G right now. A Verizon one will not work on T-Mobile. BUT, I have a barely used, unlocked Dev edition I'm going to be selling shortly.

Why don't people use the free Google+ backup??? I don't even use Android much and I use it. It's free and requires literally no effort beyond saying "Yes!" to it.

stickyfngrdboy posted:My lg one m8 has just told me it wants me to install lollipop. Is it a good idea to update now or is there some reason I should wait ? You should probably hold off since your phone is confused about it's manufacturer. Give it time to decide on its own how it identifies itself before making any drastic updates.

An unlocked one will work fine on AT&T. In the unlikely event there's a Sony Style Store near you, they'll have it.

I'll probably still try to suffer and hold off of a new phone for a few more months now, unless the next time I throw the phone while drunk and angry breaks it (I've got to hand it to my phone's cheap $1 case... it damaged the wall but the phone and case are still fine)

Surely given the plethora of alternate browsers available in the Play Store at least ONE will offer the edge-case functionality that makes the AOSP browser somehow indispensable to you.

kitten smoothie posted:I wish there was something good like this too, just for my office. We've about six Android phones, an iPhone, and an iPad that we use for testing. I wish we could just have an easy place for them all to sit and charge when we're not using them, without having eight USB chargers octopused off a power strip with the cords all tangled. If you search for "USB charging hub" on Amazon there's lots of them. Or, at least, a better option than dealing with a power strip, I think.

Rice and silica gel don't actually do much since they need direct contact with the liquid to absorb it, so at best, it will slightly speed up the evaporation, and it's the deposits left behind that cause electronics to die, which are going to be there regardless of how fast it dries.

Massasoit posted:I have a Nexus 5 as my very first smartphone and it's running lollipop 5.0.1. Seems to work great to me (with no other reference points besides fiddling with the occasional iOS device). I'm seen a lot of complaints about having to restart a phone and I guess I just don't get what the issue is. Can't stop watching that anime for two minutes to restart the phone? If you have to restart your phone with any regularity (ignoring updates), that's an issue.

You can still get a 2013 Moto X for that and it's better than a Moto G in every way unless you absolutely insist on an SD card or a larger (but same resolution) screen.

22 Eargesplitten posted:Okay. I'm on T-Mobile, I'm looking at a last-gen phone. <300 used, so far I've been looking at an older HTC one, LG g2, or galaxy s4. Less so the s4, my work s4 is scratched to hell after 8 months. I like that the g2 has a gorilla glass screen, but I'm worried about the non-replaceable battery on a used phone, I don't know how well it's been treated. Durability and battery life are most important to me. Less so body durability because I'll probably get a case for whatever phone I decide on.
