You'll get bored dude. Every year (not this year though) I get curious and try the new iPhone out. Within a week, I'm bored and frustrated with it.


One thin I love about Google, Google Now in particularly, is that it evolves with you. It's learned where I drop my kids off two days a week and tells me the quickest way to get there without even asking. Google Now is, in my opinion, the biggest selling point for Android. Everyone talks about Apple's ecosystem, I'd argue that Google coupled with Android wear and Chrome is the way more robust ecosystem. Google Now on Tap will be the next huge evolution.
 
Im really starting to hate Google Play Music... So unorganized :{

I have explicit songs when I log in through my computer, but when Im on my phone I get the edited version or vice versa :{

Then my songs arent put in order too by name of song... Getting frustrated

Why is Google Play Music on Apple, but iTunes isn't available for Android devices?

i definitely like whatever music player was on my Note 4 way better than Google Play Music.  i put a lot of music from my computer onto it and its just an annoying process to find each song

I agree. I'm slowly starting to use Google Now more often. It has slowly become my go to all in one app.

try doubletwist player if you dont like GPM, it has a clean interface and a desktop client

Try out Shuttle. I liked it enough to pay the $2 even though I don't really use the functions of the paid app over the free.
 
I actually like Google Play Music. To the point that, even though I am currently running a 6+, I still use GPM app and didn't sign up for the Apple Music subscription. 
 
The thing that pisses me off about Google Play Music, is how they got rid of the "Explore" option. I liked being able to look at different albums based on genre or radios based on genre/subgenre. Now it's like you're subjected to the created radios or you have to know the album you want to listen to, type it in, and then listen. Sometimes I want to check out the Funk section w/ no album in mind.
 
I usually turn off Google Now because that plus location being on seems to hurt my battery life too much.

But I'm giving it another go and seeing how bad it really is or if it's a minor difference.

Ideally I wouldn't have to sacrifice the functions I like to save battery and so many things about Google Now are really awesome.. even little things like Smart Lock automatically unlocking my phone at home comes in handy.

Same but I turn my GPS off and I don't have any issues. I also sure there is a way to turn it off within the settings I just can't remember how i did it.

Oh I know i'll be back

.  I love Android, and Google Now is definitely my most used and loved feature by far.  Its just that im tired of Android right now.  None of the newer joints have impressed me.  Its all just higher specs, not really much software innovation(Which is a understandable).   Plus this experience with the S6edge has really turned me off of android for right now.  I need a break.   Im always on the move and I need something that works.  When I need it.  Every time.  

Yea i could probably cop a Nexus or a Moto X, but I just cant get with those.  Nexus' always have trash hardware, and the Moto is just....blah.  Samsung phones have trash software.  LG is nearly the same.  HTC has the software side perfected better than any other OEM. Shoot honestly Sense is better and faster than stock android. But they definitely need to refresh the hardware design language (And get a consistent camera

).  

iPhones might not have the most bleeding edge features, but they make sure to polish what they DO have.  I havent seen the same on the Android front.  Every android device i've tried has had atleast one aspect that made it seem......half-baked.  Plus, like it or not,  iOS is definitely catching up with Android in functionality, and surpassing it in some aspects.  The Android ecosystem used to have an extraordinary lead in features and innovation but the Fragmentation and alot of dumb moves have made it stagnant.   Its crazy that Android is sorta playing catchup with Apple now.  Shoot we are still begging for an alternative to iMessage

.   The innovation is what kept Android in the top spot for me, and that isnt really happening anymore.

Once Google enforces a REAL solution to the fragmentation thats holding the platform back, and once a device comes out that impresses me, I'll definitely be back.  I cant stay away from Android for long

been trying to figure out why the lg g3 shows service disabled on front screen. Could the sim card be the culprit?

Tried a reboot?  And maybe there's an outage in your area.  Did this just start happening?  A sim card error usually is "Insert SIM" or "Invalid SIM"

The owner of it said that when they don't pay the bill it says service disabled, but the bill was paid today and it still said service disabled. Then I seen that some system apps said the date was 1970?????? I dob=n eloped up everything, and one forum said that the sim card could be damaged.

Yea thats strange.  Take that to the carrier store to get them to look at it.  If it is the sim they'll give you a new one free
