I recently bought a Pixel Slate. For a while I hated it but actually I'm starting to like it very much. It seems to be very efficient and quick for the basic things that I do. One thing that bugs me is that I have it in a folio keyboard case and whenever the case is opened – which might happen...

Hi, I've just bought a Pixel C after years of using a Nexus 10. One thing that I find a bit surprising is that if the tablet is switched off and it is on charge, there is no indication to show that it is charging – not even a white battery symbol for a few seconds or so as with my Nexus 10. Is...

I just bought my first Google pixel tablet with a USB C charging point. Is it faster to charge USB C to USB C? Or is USB 3.0 2 USB C the same speed? Thanks

I could with some help please. I expect that the answer is already on the forum somewhere, so if someone could post a link, that would be great. My Nexus - unlocked and rooted - 5.1 with Wugfresh several months ago, today decided not to boot up. I get "Google" then it goes to a black/glowing...

Just a word on my own experience regarding the upgrading of my Nexus 10. Actually I have two because one was stolen and then returned to me - but after I replaced it. Both of my tablets with 4.4 installed have been great. They did everything I wanted without any problem. Why did I bother to...

When I tap the greyed out "Android version 4.4.2" a few times, I suddenly get a screen with a very large K and a couple more taps turns the dark background into a red background. Any ideas?

I have an N10 and have just bought an N7. I'd like to be able to sync or copy all the apps and the screen layout from one to the other. Any ideas? Thanks

I got a bluetooth mouse which connects easily and works very well - except that only the left button and the back-button are operating. Is there anything around which will allow me to map the buttons - and the scrollwheel? Thanks

Anyone know if it is possible to control an N10 with a bluetooth mouse? I can see lots of apps to turn your Android device inot a mouse - but I want to be able to display a mouse cursor and to control it with a bluetooth mouse.

When I switch on - it always goes to my library page. How does one change the default home screen? I haven't found it. Also - I would love to find a way to change the location of the three menu keys. I'd really like to be able to browse in landscape mode but to have those keys along the right...

Well I had been using foxFi very successfully to tether between my S3 and a laptop. Trying it with the N10, I find that Orange is blocking it and is demanding a tethering fee. Anyone any other ideas? Thanks

I'm in France and although my Nexus was bought in UK and I have set it to English (UK) - Google - in their infinite wisdom insist that I buy any films in French. Is my only solution to use a proxy IP - and if so what is the best way to do this on a Nexus 10. Google obviously aren't very...

I'm trying to purchase Profimail because it is my preferred email client. I have to enter the Nexus unique code - equivalent of the IMEI code. However, Profimail doesn't seem to recognise it. I've sent Profimail a message - but anyone any ideas? Thanks

I bought a Mugen battery for my S3 and am currently testing it out. Rooted, stock ROM. I charged it and then discharged it until the phone stopped. The put it on charge again with the phone on - as recommended by Mugen - for about 9 hours (as recommended). I supose that it hasn't be an...

I'm trying to copy a backup of my ROM to my external sdcard. The data part is about 5gb and I get an error message so I imagine that the file system can only deal with files smaller than a certain sixe - maybe 2gb. Is this right? And is there any way round?

Does this sound correct? I backed up my stock ROM in CWR and got a file about 1gb I then backed up my Omega ROM and got a file about 5GB. Thanks

HI I took the 32gb memory card out of my old HTC Desire HD and put it into my new S3. Very strange because although the directory structure appears, the file explorer reports that every directory is empty - which they aren't. The storage statistics correctly tells me that the memory card is...

First of all let me say that I don't know if this is a one off - or what the customer service is going to be like. However, I thought that I would flag this up straightaway because I know that lots of people seem to be talking about ordering these very expensive batteries as an answer to DHD...

I've had a very sudden and dramatic improvement in battery life and I thought that I'd post what seems to have worked for me. I installed setCPU and set it for 768/254 on demand - main 245/245 performance screen off 368/368 performance - battery<41% battery<101% 768/245 on demand I installed...

Hi, anyone know of an app which will block all APN, always on mobile data - etc etc and only will permit them on demand with some designated applications? I really want everything off but then when I check my email, or use a map, etc I don't want to have to be dealing with messages which tell...

My DHD is brand new - just a week. It was supplied by Orange in France - who by the way are the most incompetent company I have ever dealt with - and the software number is 1.40.61.2 Now I'm thinking of rooting the phone. Partly because I understand that it will help me improve battery life...

What a fantastic phone. I've really never had anything so quick and so useable. But the battery life is a disaster. I'm hard-pressed to get a day's use out of the thing - menaing hours of daylight - and that often includes short charge times connected to a computer. The phone is so good that...

My MDA exec is frozen as it won't repsond to screen taps. It was stuck at the password screen so I reset it to factory defaults hoping to clear the problem. Now it is stuck at the "tap the screen to set up ..." screen. Amzingly I can see inside it with activesync. I have a sprite backup on...

Rogue dialers have previously been a problem related to PCs. A trojan gets onto a computer which is connected by a dila-up modem. The during a period of inactivity the trojan starts dialing premium numbers, producing profits to the rogues and huge bills for the telephone account holder. I...

Any news on a SIM unlock routine for the XDA III?

Can this theft protection method be used on the MDA III? It is intended for the Wallaby but what about the Blue Angel?
