2 simple questions...

Had the Bionic 2 days now and so far love it! 2 questions.

1. I live in a non 4g network area, is it worth the battery savings by turning 4g off and are there any drawbacks to doing so.

2. Is there an app available that you can run your Bionic from your PC using a USB connection? Don't want to plunk down the $$$ for a LapDock and I imagine this would not be to difficult an app to create.

Thanks all! I look forward to using this forum...

1. Yes, set it to CDMA-only so it won't waste time and resources looking for a 4G signal that isn't there.

2. I'm not aware of anything such as you are describing (it certainly might exist, though), but what are you wanting to do? If it's just getting online, you can get the tethering package for the Bionic and tether your computer to get online.

HTH,

Just kind of manipulate my phone with my PC Keyboard and monitor (I guess an emulator is the closest term I could come up with) So I can do data entry, etc. as if it was docked to a LapDock...

Only connecting via USB instead of plunking down another $300.00 for the LapDock

Perhaps do a search in the Android Market for such an app. I know of several apps to remotely control a computer from the phone, but not the other way around. Maybe someone else is aware of such an app?
