An Idea Carriers Should Use

An Idea Carriers Should Use
An Idea Carriers Should Use:

So recently this idea came to me, when I was having a bad weather alert in my area concerning tornadoes, Our phones weren't putting out near enough Cellular Broadcasts, and we use mostly Samsung Galaxy devices in my household, but our city has disabled Sirens completely and we rely on the broadcasts now. I remembered back, when I had the Moto X 1st Gen, it would give me cellular broadcasts left and right, and 99% of the time through bad weather, and was LOUD! 
Older people really need devices like this. 
I though about this.. What if carriers customers could purchase the older flagship phones, at a huge discount even if they're refurbished? This would help the carrier make money, and not scare so many customers out of a contract. I know that these carriers have so much money and so many customers that it probably will not even matter because they are giant, but at least be like Verizon, and sale the Galaxy S4 as a Pre-Paid device, and stop making these stupid little plastic cheapy phones like the Galaxy Core Prime, or the HTC Desire 510/610/512/612. 
Sell your customer a HTC One M7, or maybe even an HTC One M8, I work as a technician at a UbreakiFix and I notice the prices of these parts, and if you have a phone a customer trades in, and has a bad charging port, spend that $6, repair it, resell it at a good value to your Pre-Paid customers.

I don't know if there's any type of legalities of this, or even all the background of it, but just an idea! Tell me what you think in the comments or on Google+!

LG G2 AT&T (D800) Cyanogenmod Semi-Nightlies

LG G2 AT&T (D800) Cyanogenmod Semi-Nightlies I am currently releasing the D801 (T-Mobile LG G2) Builds for the D800. Basically, I am taking the D801 CM12 Nightlies ever so often, and modifying the kernel for AT&T G2 Devices. I will be releasing these every 5-10 days, until the official CM12 Nightlies start coming in for the D800, which shouldn't be too far along.  Everything seems to work so far, last week I had a build that didn't have the Display & Lights option working, but on the Feb. 21st build, it is successfully working flawlessly. Comments below, or on the XDA Thread will be helpful, also reporting to CM the issues because chances are, if you're having a bug, the T-Mobile users are too. This is version 5.0.2, and will be updated from time to time! Working: Everything I see so far. Not Working: Nothing, The Display and Lights option crash was fixed.

What is Android?

What is Android? Android is a Free Open Source Operating system, mostly seen on mobile devices these days such as smart phones, tablets, and is the base Operating system behind the Kindle fire, & Nook Color. It is safe to say Android is built upon Linux. When you hear of "Linux" you think of Ubuntu immediately if you're a novice, or "noob" with the Linux operating system. Well though Ubuntu is built upon Linux, and is commonly used on any machine using it, but it isn't what linux is. Linux is basically a terminal/operating system like you would say DOS is. Linux is basically a Unix clone, which is what Mac OS X is built upon. Linux is free, and if you ever payed for it, demand a refund, but don't get yourself in danger over it! (lol) So from this, we know Linux is just basically the background software, which runs all the commands it needs to, to give you a functioning GUI (Graphical User Interface) for easier ways to use ...

LikeWise S6? Will it be a Thing?

LikeWise S6? Will it be a Thing? Hopefully! I mean its very possible, for the Galaxy S3, and S4. I have not gotten ahold of a Galaxy S5 yet (Send me one I'll do it, thanks!) What this will consist of, again is bringing the look, the UI, and just the smoothness of the device to your older Galaxy device. Which is a new life for the older gen devices right? LikeWise S5 was such a huge hit for the Galaxy S3, I would love to participate in a new ROM, aside from my LG G2 work. Anyways I really want to do this! and I will! for any device I can, if you want to donate a device to me, for any development, I will definitely follow up on your wishes! Thanks everyone for reading this short :) AndroidGuruGuy
