I have

LG Pad 8.3 tablet

Here is where I list items that I have sold on eBay. These entries go in the bought & sold category which is mainly for reference/historical purposes 🙂 This particular entry is for one of my favorite tablets, the  LG G Pad 8.3, this little guy was ideal for Candy Crush and other games. The 1920×1200 IPS screen is absolutely phenomenal. A bit too small for work though, so I eventually sold it to someone that could use it. Android LG G Pad 8.3″

Disable Android lock screen, ‘None’ option missing?! [SOLVED]

I had a lock screen that just would not be disabled on my LG G.Pad 8.3 tablet 🙁 Turns out it was because multiple users were enabled on my tablet. Deleting the extra users and just going back to my primary user allowed me to set the Lock Screen to ‘None’. Woot! 🙂 More info on lock screens and things that can cause them to go awry: How to Disable the Lock Screen in Android | Phone Tipshttp://blog.laptopmag.com/how-to-disable-the-lock-screen-in-androidVirtually every new

LG Optimus V external antenna connector [BEWARE!]

Today my buddy’s LG Optimus V failed to boot up so he asked me to take a look at it. Unfortunately, I was not able to get it to work 🙁 However, I did see something interesting: the Optimus V has an external antenna connector. This is becoming rather uncommon with today’s super-smartphones that do not even have user-replaceable batteries 🙁 So I was excited to see that LG included an antenna connector.

Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V wifi hotspot tethering [2.2.2]

When the LG Optimus V was released by Virgin Mobile it was very easy to enable the wifi hotspot feature. However, recent version of the phone featuring  2.2.2 have disabled this feature! 🙁 Thankfully, there are still some options out there (PDAnet probably being the best one).
