Is there any long-term fix for this? Or do I just have to wait for improved LTE coverage (or keep LTE turned off in those areas)?

by hospadam 14y ago
I'm having a similar problem - but only when LTE is enabled... and I have spotty LTE coverage. When I'm in "the city" - LTE coverage is great and I get amazing battery life. As soon as my phone starts switching between 4G and LTE... my batt

As someone who owns both an iPad and Nexus 7 - they're both great devices. But, if you're looking for "learning apps and games" - the iOS App Store wins, hands down. The Android store is definitely growing with respect to games... but I've

Small quibble: the 16gb N7 (the most comparable in this case) is actually $250. That might change later this week... but for now - that is still the case.

FWIW, you can pick up HDMI switchers quite cheaply. If you want to spring for it, remote-operated ones run a bit more expensive ($40 maybe) - but it could be worth it...

After Microsoft's announcement of the Surface Tablet... people had to see this coming. I'm not debating the merits of doing this or not doing this... but if MS was willing to make their own tablet, surely they were willing to make their own

Honest question: what can average people use 3d printers for realistically? Every time I read more - I want one. But then I try and figure out what kind of thing I'd print. Besides custom chess pieces and my own Legos - am I missing anythin

Yes, in my day-to-day use of each camera I've been moving. I guess my point is - there seems to be a massive quality degradation in what I've seen from personal use.

On one hand - the image stabilization on the Lumia appears to be great. However, the image quality on both the iPhone 5 & Galaxy S3 were much worse than I've experienced in day to day use. I've used both phones personally - and the vide

I love the idea. This is a competitor that I've tried that has worked quite well so far - http://divshot.com/

First - I'm quite happy that the event has gotten shut down, for now. Second - I've always felt like this was the case of a company trying to do something they didn't fully understand. I got the vibe that these terms were cooked up by a law

Willing to share how big of a team you need to have to turn out 10 apps per month? I'm honestly curious!

Honest question for the devs - why the focus on Instagram? I thought that your original product was fantastic (despite the security problems). I feel like adding in Instagram takes away from the awesome original version: an amazing desktop

I think calebio is talking about the ability to steal a credit card number. If a salesman walks around and asks for cash - and someone gives him $20 - even if they were scammed they only lost $20. If someone comes to my door, asks me to don

This came at a perfect time for me. When Google Drive came out, I made the leap. GD was priced significantly better than DropBox, so I went with GD. However, I've had an awful experience with Google. Tons of syncing issues and the backgro

I've read the article - and I completely agree with Gabe. From a business point of view - you (and Gabe) are probably right. It might be absolutely, completely stupid of HBO to not offer GoT online, 24/7, for a reasonable price. However, ju

Well, this season of GoT was 9 episodes. If you wanted HBO over the whole run so you could watch them live - you would need it for 3 months. However, if you're willing to hold off until last month, you could get by with waiting for the last

You're exactly right - there is a vocal set of people that want a third option. My point is, however, no business has to offer the "third option". Just because they don't offer the third option doesn't make downloading them for free OK.

by hospadam 14y ago
I just don't understand what some people are thinking when it comes to this issue. In my mind, HBO is offering people two options: 1) Premium price, instant gratification. If you're willing to pony up for cable TV + a HBO subscription, you'

Anecdotally - none of my friends (or myself) carry iPods anymore. Nearly everyone I know uses their smart phone. I think most iPod sales are now sold to children as stand-ins until they have a smartphone of their own.

The 'checkbook is certainly important to any startup. However, let's look closer. When the money runs out, a non-technical founder can no longer afford to run the startup, and it effectively shuts down. However, even with no money, a techni

Apple's solution is much more clear, however. Before you ever develop an app, you know to expect a 70/30 cut. If ESPN provided those details upfront, I'd be much happier. As it stands, seems like quite a risk to take.

Reading their Terms of Service... Section 3... "Branding. All Apps must include an approved ESPN trademark, logo or other intellectual property (each, an "ESPN Mark"). Advertising. No advertising or sponsorship of any kind may appear on or

I can't help but thinking - when I was a kid, this is the kind of car I thought we would have when I was an adult. I recently watched "Revenge of the Electric Car" which heavily features Elon and Tesla. It's definitely an interesting story

This. Is. So. Cool. Wow. I tried several concerts, several angles, and everything works pretty smoothly. Any critiques I might have are quite minor.

This is one of those times where I kick myself for not thinking of this myself. Currently my solution for this involves emailing myself PNGs and then opening on the phone phone by one. Thanks for the tip!

While I tend to agree with everything - we should expect Apple to support the 3GS currently - they're still selling it! How much support will it get 6 months after it's not currently sold anymore?

"Secondly - and most importantly - my daughter told me the answer. This might sound weird if you don't have kids - but for your kid to know the answer to something you genuinely don't know - that's really special for them." You know, I'm no

I don't need duplicated functionality - I need an actual Instagram app. It's not so much the photosharing/editing, it's sharing pictures on their network with my Instagram friends.

I have used both iOS and Android extensively. I like most of the "core" (email, browser, maps, navigation) apps better on Android - but I still find their third party apps mostly 'behind' their iOS counterparts. While everyone will use diff
