Does the Note 3 still have that home button issue?

What's the issue? I'll check on mine to see if it's still happening.

All bloatware is a scam. It's how the hustle people not in the know.My dad was accidentally used the ATT navigation app that they charge 10 bucks a month for and automatically enroll you in cause he clicked on Google navigation and it asked him does he want to use ATT. I didn't even notice it on the bill until like 4 months after.

I'm waiting on the Moto G announcement on Wednesday to see if it's under $250. Hopefully it is. I need a new phone badly.

what carrier do u have? i've noticed that ppl on att (like myself) generally have a problem sending group texts. 2 of my friends have the gs3, one on verizon and one on att. the verizon dude can send group texts fine, but att one is a huge mess.

it's a simple ass service dont know why google doesnt fix that shyt. i get my balls broken all the time by iphone ppl like "lol ur shytty phone cant do group texts "

I'm on AT&T too. When I had the Galaxy Nexus prior to the 4.2 update, whenever I got group texts from iOS users, it was a damn mess. All of the responses from each person would end up in their own conversation thread from my POV. I didn't even realize it was a group texts half of the time because of it

So it was a nice surprise when the 4.2 update dropped and group messaging worked the same way it does on iOS. Any Android phone on 4.2 or above should support group texts properly

Virgin Mobile now offers iPhones and Samsung Galaxy S III. <---- Is that even considered exciting & NEW anymore? Then why are women in Harlem still being robbed for it this fall?

I must replace this Chaser...
I'm scared.

Is there an app with a group text like the Evos where you can send a text to a grip of people and open individual convos when they reply so there responses dont go to everybody

They said the button is loose and get stuck.
