  1. I have rooted all of the android phones that I owned (Galaxy Ace, Galaxy S2 and my current phone Xperia Z3 compact). I am kinda proud of myself I have rooted the Galaxy Ace when I was 14/15. I had no idea what it was, I just knew that I could do some cool thinks with it so I did it. Currently I have rooted stock sony rom + XZDualRecovery + Xposed + some mods (Z5 camera/sound libs)
  2. I think that it cannot be done automatically, but you can do it manually. Go to settings, find "App" or "Application manager" (Something like that), click on it, find the app that you want to move to SD card. Click on it. It should open the info about the app. There should be a button "Move to SD card", click on it. Done, you have successfully moved the app (at least I hope). You have to do it to every app that you have installed, or at least to most of the apps. Not all apps can be moved, only the ones that you have downloaded from the Play Store.
  3. I don't thing that there is really a fix for that. I have a Xperia Z3C and it is also happening to me in the Album app and in the Photos app (from Google). Maybe the memory is just not fast enough to load the pictures instantaneously (just a wild guess) or maybe it is some kind of post-processing. If it really bothers you, try asking on XDA forums (in Nexus 6P section).
  4. Even thought you have some free space, I think that is is reserved for app updates that you have currently installed. There is a way to expand your app storage if I remember correctly, by reformatting the partitions for different use (for example, the system partition is 1GB big, It can be reformatted to less/more GB), but it is difficult (I remember that it took me almost the whole day to do it (not because the process takes long, but because the tutorial wasn't really clear and I had to experiment a little on my own). The fastest and best way is to buy a SD card.
  5. The phone is great for the price, you could definitely get a better phone, for example the Nexus 5X, but you would have to pay more of course (the Nexus 5X costs 100$ more than the OPX). Here is a video about the OPX (from MKBHD): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgK-bxZIG-o (It is short and basically tells you everything that you need to know about the phone). EDIT: To better answer your question about switching, you should definitely switch, LG Leon is garbage (My friend has it. It lags almost all the time). About MetroPCS. It would work but i have read that the OPX does not have band 12 which is used for LTE (I believe, could be wrong on this one). Of course, it is not the only band used for LTE, but I think that that MetroPCS uses band 12. They also use band 4 which the OPX does have, so there is a chance. So to wrap it up, would the phone work ? Definitely. Would you get LTE ? Maybe, Probably yes, but I am not sure. Somebody else should answer this question, I am no expert on this stuff.
  6. Well, I have never heard of this problem (but I have only recently got my Xperia so I am no expert on them). I have a Xperia Z3 compact and it never happened to me, so I do not thing that it is a problem anymore.
  7. It is great that you made it this far . I really love "As fast As Possible", it is short and informational, it helped me a few times. I hope that the subscribers will double as fast as possible
  8. I really love that it has a front facing speakers, not many phones have that (They should !) and also the SD card slot is great (a lot of new phones don't have that). Dbrand makes really cool skins, I like them.
  9. I love the back buttons, i think that they are really comfortable. Also the replaceable battery and slot for a microSD card is great, a lot of new phones dont have that.
