Making google unhappy? I say, go for it!

[DeltrusDisc]

I've gotten pretty used to my Samsung-Google UI thingamajig Galaxy S4... you'll be alright. :P

[Evil Inside]

Oh boy, alright I'll dig into that...but it doesn't sound like something Samsung/Google would be very happy about. I'll only ask whether that would interfere with warranty - does it?

They encourage it. Like no shit, they have in the past hired guys that make those custom roms. Plus you can make a backup of the stock rom and go back to it if you ever need to return the phone for warranty or whatever reason, they wont know a thing.

To be fair, not every country has the same views on such dealings. :P

Guys, is there a mail app for Google that I could use, that works exactly the same as the integrated Windows 8/8.1 Mail? The default Mail app is giving me a headache and it just plain won't work most of the time.

Google, as in Android?
Gmail?

Have you tried Thunderbird?

Have you tried Thunderbird?

Have you tried Thundercougarfalconbird?



...in all seriousness, I can't help here, I use gmail and haven't had any issues.

Any FireFox users having any trouble on the new FireFox version?
It's been fine for the most part for me. But every now and then I come across some really annoying problems. >.<
I've disabled all of my extensions, and I'll still have small problems crop up.

[Xuvial]

What version is it at now? 35?

No problems here. Any exact descriptions? So I know to look out for them.

Version 26. :P

Sometimes the color contrast of websites randomly changes as I scroll. It seems to only affect images, but not the surrounding background or text.
When I'm using YouTube, the small thumbnail images contrast changes to something really bright. I've also seen it on Classic Game Room's website, and maximum PC.

Some websites take forever to load, and causes the entire web browser to not respond until the site finishes loading. It happens on random sites at random times.

Forum post buttons (such as the bold, italics, post reply, cancel) sometimes won't work. Click it and nothing happens. >.<

I'm thinking of just re-installing FireFox and seeing if that fixes anything.

The only one I've experienced is slow loading times/freezing and I find it's mostly caused by Flash using hardware acceleration.

[Libram]

Well, giving the re-installation some time. I've found that FireFox is running perfectly fine again. Hooray..
Oh, and I've also re-installed my extensions.

That is always the most horrible and fun thing to do at the same time.

I can see that being an issue for some, but I only use a few extensions, so it's pretty easy to locate and re-install them.

I get a can of "air" to give my PC a good dusting, and it rains the whole week :/
