Fellow Gnex users, @fraij da 5 11
is having trouble with his Gnex. It's rooted running CM. It can recieve texts but can't send them. Any suggestions?
Did he check his carrier settings?
Explain what you mean here...
I got the phone yesterday, threw in my sim card and fired it up... Texts were working for a little while but at like 8pm all my texts immediately started popping up with error message within 2 seconds of hitting send...
Not sure what I should do exactly but Ill have to play with it tonight.

I use the Pandora whenever I want to stream music.. I had da unlimited skips don't know which version it was just know I skipped everything

If it were up to me and had to decide between those 3.. I'm liking the G2 as the days go on.. but would take the moto x over all of themI get my courtesy upgrade (for real this time -____-) this week and I'm trying to decide on either the S4, N2 or G2.
Dat 5" screen life looks so fun
If the G2 had HTC One esque speakers it would be the goat phone.
New setup.
Possibly new Phone time. Thoughts? Sprint customer.
Options:
Keep Galaxy Note 2? Rooted and laced with Cifs access, plex, xbmc, emulators, foldersync, voip calling, coachpotato/sickbeard etc.
OR
Pickup a Note 3(I heard there are issues with voice calling on Sprint?)
LG G2 on Sprint(main flaw is that its ugly imo)
Nexus 5 (too small? too slow? benchies dont seem that great)
Thoughts? Should I just stand pat with my current device or step it up into a snapdragon?
@ N5 Too slow?
I've owned a lot of the newer high end phones and it gets through task smoother than all of them.
But it all comes down to what you want to do on your phone.. if you're a flashaholic like myself a N3 is out of question because there is 0 development going on.. at least on the AT&T side. The G2 is doing better than the N3 in terms of development.. it isn't saying much but at least there is some activity.. if it gets rolling and more developers back it it can be a really awesome phone.. with the N5 you'll see a flood of roms/kernals and everything else in like a month
Now if you're not and save a lot of music/pictures/videos on your phone the Note is probably your best bet.. you're used to the massive screen coming for the 2. It has expandable storage and the biggest screen for entertainment purposes.
If you want to keep it stock the N5 is probably not for you.. the G2 is a better fit for ya or the N3
HerI just received my nexus 5 about an hour ago and I also have the G2. I prefer the nexus 5 already. Its so smooth and fast compared to the G2 its not even funny. My mind was pretty much set on the G2 because of its insane battery life and its also fast but this nexus 5 is so incredible. I cannot emphasize how much in in love with the speed of that thing. It's so smooth. It's funny cause I never been a fan of such android but this is just too good. Gonna put my G2 for sale on Swappa. Love the nexus 5 and can't wait for the development.

Take them how you will.. but what I'm saying it benches don't mean much when it comes to how you use your phone on a day to day basisToday I sat down and began going through all of my apps and widgets on the Note II saving the configurations and data (with a little help from Titanium). After one day of using the N5, I can't help but get frustrated while trying to use my Note II. I distinctly remember it being the fastest phone I ever thought anyone could produce. I know the app transitions were so sleek and swift that I was blown away when I started using it. Now, my Nexus 5 has completely ruined me. It's amazing, and I'll never be able to use another phone from last generation without getting red in the face.
I don't know about you guys but I prefer the nexus 5 over the G2 already. There's a noticeably difference in terms of performance between the two. Scrolling in tapatalk which usually lags a lot on every android device is butter on the nexus 5, web browsing is lightning fast, screen is super responsive, display is MUCH brighter. But I'm amazed by the performance of this thing, it's night and day vs the G2 in my opinion.
you could go nexus 5, but id read about all these phones personally. nexus 5 apparently has a speaker problem. and the battery life has been inconsistent it seems. still got great reviews, and hard to beat at 400 for 32gb unlocked. also ive read kit kat is fast from multiple reviews, where u gettin slow from? id wait to see if this phone can get its problems worked out with software patch...
on the other hand the G2 is not nice looking as the 5 imo, but i read the battery is beastly. also you'd have to get used to the buttons being in the back n ****. and the plastic i read is cheap as ****..
i don't like any samsung phones i think they all are overrated iphone ripoffs, poorly engineered, and touchwiz is hot trash. also, if u have a note 2, why the hell would u consider a note 3, its like going from 5 to 5s. you ain't gonna run battlefield 4 on ur phone, its not worth upgrade.
personally id go moto x. srs. it'll already get 4.4 soon, and doesn't have a audio problem, feels great in one hand but still has a 4.7 screen. it doesn't lag at all and battery is very solid as well. plus if u plan on staying on sprint expect to pay 50-100 cash for customized one starting monday (last i read). if not the X, stay on wat u got, but throw on a fresh 4.3 or 4.4 rom.
