Wow, is this an old phone - Sprint LG G3

From the specs on the main Sprint G3 XDA page
"Released 1969-12-31"
Who knew this phone was released right around the time man was landing on the moon and the day before the release of Unix? :laugh:

Careless time travelers. Leaving this phone in a bar in 1969. Wonder how long it took the person who found it to figure how to turn it on?
I'm sure once they did..Far Out! would have been the exclamation..
No but really, imagine the phones we would be using now if this did come out back then......

Well that is Kevin for you, the show wouldn't be much without him and his wittiness. Personally, Candice Bailey and Sarah Jean Underwood are extremely attractive women but I think Kevin does bring the show together.
I missed it today but I do look forward to catching it online from their website.
After she left the show, I left the show. Whats a phone review without a taste

You missed the giant logo on the back, compared to the minor to no branding from the other carriers

Who gives a flying F over the button? I'm tired of hearing this crap because we've known about the button for over a month now. If you don't like Verizon just switch. Verizon has been tagging their phones with their logo for years. If the button bothers you so much buy a button sticker.
Edit: Here is a sticker for $7 bucks. Wait a little longer and it will be half the cost.

You couldn't respond in one of the other threads about this?

Can you confirm the batteries are the same for the Verizon vs other model?
I don't even have vzw we just got these at work. Just wanted to swing by and make fun of it. Didn't take a single second to check other threads. Same battery and part number. Enjoy the stickers

OP, not understanding why you would "just want to swing by and make fun of", thread going no where...
Thread....

Easter Eggs and Jellybeans! ^^

So I don't know if you guys knew this, and if its wildly known you can delete this thread but, if you go into your settings, then to your phone info and tap on your android version 3 times it takes you to a screen with a giant Jellybean, whom you can long press to make him divide into several smaller jellybeans, which you can toss around!
Just a cool little easteregg I wanted to share for those who didn't know, no real significance.
I actually found this because I was wondering when we would be getting 4.1.2 :/
Thanks for sharing. I read about this elsewhere, but it was missing the details about pressing 3 times, so I didn't get it to work at first and thought this was just something else Verizon pulled out.
Is it wrong that I spent 10 minutes just throwing around jelly beans when I did this? LOL.

HALP! I can't hit all my letters

over the last couple days my onscreen keyboard has been acting flaky. I cant select so of the letters, e's are r's , s's forget about it. if I rotate the phone it works. do you think the digitizer is bad?
There is a touch screen test app in the play store that you could try, and you could also try a different keyboard and see if there are similar problems.
I hope that halped.
wow, it is screwed.there is about 1/2 inch band top to bottom that you cannot use

yeah no wp8 either *spit* looking at LG optimus. I just dont want to make a horrible mistake like my wife's HTC inspire, i really wanted to upgrade that, too bad my atrix is becoming unusable for texting
Hm, phone recommendations now? This is quite off-topic here, not to mention there are several other threads about this already...
Get a replacement digitizer with the bezel off eB!ay and search YouTube for a guide to replacing it. I've done it twice now and I'm rubbish at fixing things usually!

Note 8 vs S8+ size pics

Went to my local Best Buy and took these pics of the Note 8 next to my S8+. Already put in my preorder!

Yep I did the same. Well ...i preordered this time before seeing the phone in person, but it's a Note 8 I had no doubts

Thanks for posting pics of the Orchid Grey Note 8. I blindly ordered it and read somewhere that it was purple'ish and started to freak out [emoji23]. Looks fantastic and I'll be glad to have something other than a black slab for once. Finding it in the car floor while driving at night is a nightmare haha.
I'm curious why samsung decided to make the phone taller...

It's because most activities require scrolling down or upwards, a taller screen would mean more viewing and less scrolling. At least this is what they said on the live release event.
Personally I think it looks great too now they have moved onto software keys instead
