Q. I am getting a new phone tomorrow, Its either the LG optimus V and its with virgin mobile a 55 dollar plan or should i get the samsung galaxy precedent with straight talk and its 45 a month. I know its cheaper but if virgin mobile is better i obviously want to go with them. Help asap Im getting it tomorrow afternoon...thanks
A. hi, i work with phones every single day, i actually own the optimus v from virgin mobile, and am planning to switch it to a new phone within the next several months. pretty much if you want the unlimited plan, straight talk is a bit cheaper for the monthly rate, only by 10 bucks a month though, and they both go off of sprint coverage, so keep that in mind because sprint has a smaller coverage map than a lot of carriers, i only want to point this out in case you were previously using a different straight talk handset, because they all vary on coverage. as far as the phones themselves, i would probably lean more towards the optimus v, simply because in the particular store i work in i have seen A LOT of the precedents being returned. as far as the optimus the only real complaints ive seen were the coverage, because people didnt know it was through sprint. i however have never had any personal issues with my optimus, and the price has dropped from 200 to around 100 depending on where you buy. and i would look at how many minutes you use, because you may be able to do 1200 minutes for the 45 a month plan on virgin mobile. hope this helps
How can i stop the Maps app on my android to stop killing my battery when not even being used?
Q. My samsung galaxy precedent's battery is dying very quickly and i only got it two days ago. It says that 98% of my battery drainage is because of the Maps app it came with. I can not uninstall it, and ive "force stopped" it hoping that will do the trick. I've not even used this app so it isnt because of usage. How can i stop it from killing my battery?
A. the maps app shouldnt be running unless you click it really. download an app called "android booster netqin" this will close all apps for you.
How to get edge on my straight talk phone?
Q. Hi, I have a samsung galaxy precedent through straight talk. it runs only on sprints 3g signal (instead of verizons edge like straight talks cheaper phones) is there any way i can make my phone get 2g sprint signals or verizon 2g signals? because 3g isnt everywhere and on my phone right now it either 3g or wifi or nothing. My phone allows me to add a new vpn without jailbreaking...thanks in advance.
A. it should drop down to Edge based speeds (CDMA x1) when the 3G signal is not supported or roaming.
