Well ****... I already fixed it. Huge PITA too, and then gave it to my Wife. Annnnnnnd, she dropped it and broke it again on Wednesday night. So, I ordered a new phone (another S7) and bought 2 year replacement insurance on it. I might go do it though just to have a spare.
I have a Buddy that repairs phones on the side, and he agreed with me that the S7 is the hardest phone to replace the screen on.
Well.... Yeah, a $50 backup could be good insurance. I'm SOL, as the Edge isn't eligible.
My Droid X was the shiddiest phone I've ever owned. It was complete junk.... making calls by itself and placing calls that were not the person I told it to, but displaying the correct info was the straw that broke it for me. I had another one of the old flip phones (post Startac) and it was also really buggy. I went to LG for one phone, and had a lot of problems there too.
My Samsung's have been my favorite phones. One thing that keeps me sold is, I really appreciate that they still support their older phones with updates. My 7 was still getting all of the software and security updates. Not too sure if Moto is doing that too? I did however just switch to a Motorola modem. I found out why my internet would suddenly drop out for a minute, then come right back (very annoying). The Intel Puma chipset is loaded with problems. Check this out: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/0..._puma_6_arris/
EDIT: Just did a speed test again.... the new modem is quicker on D/L and U/L's. Not too bad for a 25/5 service, LOL. BTW, I've currently got one TV and two Chromebooks streaming video, and it's still above the advertised speeds.
On another note.... I was going to put New Edge spindles and rotors/brakes on my Mustang.... I've got them and everything. But I got to talking to a Buddy and decided that will give me a lot of steering issues because the New Edge tie rods sit in a different position. So, I am bought SVO / Mark VII rotors for it. I am going to allocate SVO calipers with the larger pistons as well. This makes things a little easier, and I won't need to mess with the steering mess. I am pretty pissed that the Federal Mogul (National) bearings are Chinese made now though. DO I use them, or buy Koyo or Timkens instead?

Droid X or Moto X? In either case, we've had them both and had absolutely no issues with either one. In fact, until recently, I was using the DX as a music player. The screen has finally gone a bit wonky, though. The MX is still a viable backup.
Im still waffling on a new router or going with a mesh setup. Having to stop & start Wi-Fi to regain connections is getting old.
More stoppage ability is always nice. Are you posting your progress on Corral?
2100 thank you but I do not buy any 400 cid engine, period. Not the Ford, Dodge or Chev. Ford's 400 is a square motor. 4 inch bore and 4 inch stroke. AND NO oil pressure. lol. That is one Ford engine I stay away from.. JMO, of course.
Droid X. Worst phone I've ever had. Damn near went Apple for a minute after this.... but I'd talked so much crap about Apple that I didn't want to eat crow, LOL.
