The Star Wars Humble Bundle is not for your phone, but it is so great I couldn't help but mention it here. Normally we get a long list of games for our phones for a few bucks, but this time we get 10 plus steam games for less than $10. Humble Bundle allows you to chose what you want to pay. The...

I am not really sure how many of you caught on to the subtle hints that Samsung was dropping a few weeks ago. I picked up on it right away and tweeted about it. When the unpacked event was announced the announcement video showed a guy wearing a Gear VR. I took this to mean the devices announced...

OnePlus has made a name for themselves in the Rom and Mod community because they believe in open developer friendly devices and have decided to use custom roms as stock builds on their devices. The one major downside is that it has historically been a pain in the rear to order one of their...

The proverbial writing was on the wall. The application that granted subscription free wifi tethering on unrooted devices has finally stopped working on Verizon devices. I had heard rumblings of this starting a few days ago when some of you started to tell me that foxfi was no longer working on...

Now that flagship devices are no longer coming with expandable storage options for the most part most people would be better off to spend a little extra money on devices with extra storage built in. However if you really want that new smartphone and don't have the extra $100 or so to spend on...

Google just released an update to their Play Books app. They are so giddy for you to use it that they have decided to give away 44 popular issues. These are mostly first issues. Possibly Google is doling these out hoping they an get you hooked on a few of these series. Some books in the giveaway...

Samsung has been pretty awesome as of late about including lots of incentives for buying their flagship phones. When the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge first came out Samsung offered one free year of Netflix. I was fortunate enough to rack up 2 years since i purchased both the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge...

Many of you have received your Nexus 6P by now. Mine should arrive this evening! There are still a few of you left out there on a Verizon unlimited data plan. If that is you Verizon ordinarily requires you to pay $30 to add a tethering package. With many devices there are ways to root and modify...

If you are one of the lucky ones who still has an unlimited data plan with Verizon you may make good use of free wifi tethering from time to time. I do not use this personally unless my home internet is down, or I am on the road traveling. I have been known to use tethering in lieu of open wifi...

Need a phone for virtually free? Best Buy has got you covered. They have the very low end LG Optimus Exceed 2 on sale for only $15. This is a prepaid phone so you will apparently need to activate it on a prepaid plan. The phone is not boasting any crazy specs here just a dual core Qualcomm...

Verizon has been doing everything within their power to eliminate grandfathered unlimited data plans. For a premium of $20 extra per month you can keep your unlimited data. If you are on a legacy Alltel plan like me nothing has changed for you. If you are on an updated tiered data plan then your...

Unlimited data users on Verizon know that if you want to tether you have to pay a $35 subscription fee or find a work around like FoxFi. FoxFi doesn't work for every phone. I have found it to work really well with my Samsung devices if you pay for the paid version. The Moto X Pure is easily...

Google offers freebies and rewards from time to time. In fact I have watched at least 4 movies on Google's dime over the past few years. Free movies is not all that Google has to offer either. You can get free music and books among other things. Google now shows rewards available to you in the...

Fox Fi was able to get free wifi tethering working on the Galaxy S6, and it looks like Samsung and carriers have not been able to block the method. FoxFi is fully functional on the Note 5 too. This also works without being rooted. It launches some sort of VPN which circumvents the subscription...

For me the only reason to ever download the Amazon app store is so you can take advantage of the free app of the day. That reason is now gone! Amazon has decided to go a different route. Today they released Amazon Underground. This is a sub section in the Amazon Appstore that gives you a list of...

Samsung has done a pretty awesome job in the past of offering some great extra free goodies with their flagship devices. The Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge both came with a free year of Netflix. I was actually able to rack up 2 free years since I bought one of each device and was really hoping they would...
