I mean i have noticed spots where it boosts cellular signal. There's spots I couldn't get lte and with it I now can. There's spots I had no service and now I get a bar. But it doesn't do anything to help wifi. Overall I can't really tell if it makes that big a difference with or without.

I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this on sale at bb for 211$. That's pretty cheap. I use it as a PC monitor. Nice picture and it works great. My only problem with it is it won't sleep/ power off and on with the computer. U have to manually turn off and on. I've used other tv's as computer monitors b4 and haven't had this problem. Idk. I've tried everything and can't figure out why. ??

This is the 2nd one I've bought. The first broke. I mean, it does what it's suspose to do. It clips in the car vent and does hold my phone firmly. But it's kinda cheap. The vent clip broke in half on the first one. But I guess for 15-20 bucks u can't expect too much. It will also fit all phone sizes. I got a morphie on iPhone 5s and it fits that with more or less adjustable space if needed.

Sony - 7.2-Ch. Network-Ready 4K Ultra HD A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black

I see Zone 3 in the back of the receiver. Can you play the same audio on 3 zones and also 3 different audios on each zone?

How flexible are the multiroom capabilities of this receiver? Thinking of doing 2 rooms and outdoor stereo and use the wifi of the receiver for playing music.

No. One at a time.

Samsung S5 question and NFC

I have the Samsung S5 phone that has NFC which enables me to use Android Pay formerly Google Wallet. By having a metal disc on the back of the phone would the Android pay still work or would that act as a shield for the NFC chip rendering the Android Pay app inoperative.

It says it will not interfere. Although , I've heard of instances where it has.

Bracketron - Earth Elements Universal Vent Mount - Black

My vent mount doesn't work with my Prius vents--it keeps falling out.

The clamps don't meet; there is a gap. What should I do to keep it in the vent? Really, it's useless since it falls out every time I go over even the slightest bump.

I had the same problem at first. I got a screw driver to pry open the clips one at a time while I slid the clips back on vent as far back as they would go. It took a few times messing with it. But it's stayed on ever since. Get a straight head and pry the clip apart as u slide it back. Do one at a time , a little bit each one until it's as far back as it will go. Should work.

Bracketron - Earth Elements Universal Vent Mount - Black

Does this interfere with the air coming out of the vent at all? Seems like it would block the air.

Yea. It says use another vent when your phone is sitting on there. It shouldn't interfere with the vent but you don't want cold or hot direct air blowing on your 800$ phone.
