Hi all, I think I bricked my kenzo. I was trying to bootloader unlock and then install CM, but I think I messed up the partition table and this is now a paperweight... Please confirm. Running fastboot getvar all I get: (bootloader) max-download-size: 0x8000000 (bootloader)...

So the Android Authority review said that the dialer is not compatible with Google Voice. This is huge for me. Can someone test this? Try a 3rd party dialer? Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-L29 using Tapatalk

I flashed a B3XX ROM and got a locked FRP. Luckily, I had saved the bootloader unlock code. Here is what I did to get both unlocked again. ATTENTION: MAY WIPE ALL YOUR DATA. 1) Boot into ROM 2) Enable developer settings 3) Toggle OEM Unlock in Dev Settings Note: if it asks for a password, try...

Hi, Long story but I'm looking for the specific manufacturer/licensor for the optical HR sensor in the Mi Band. Anyone have the info on this? Thanks

I use Google Voice as my main phone number and I never had a problem just installing the Google app and having my calls routed through it, but on this phone a get a "Call Not Sent" error. I searched and it seems this is an issue with other Huawei phones, but didn't find any solution. Any ideas?

Straight to it, I have two questions, looking for a technical or marketing explanation: 1) Since the Chromecast has BT hardware, and it is likely not hardware disabled since some report it showing up on their BT scans, why doesn't Google enable BT functionality? 2) The Chromecast V2 and...

So I've been using Google voice as my main number. This allows me to switch SIM cards and keep my number, which is useful since I travel back and forth a lot. I can always just dial a number and it calls (Intl or not) and when I'm outside the US I can be contacted at my regular number. All I...

Wondering if anyone knows what voltage it gets from the dock. I got a free one with not dock and am trying to see if it'll power on before I buy the dock. It looks like it just gets a pass-through DC plug, so I'm guessing 12v but I'd like to be sure before I turn it on fire.

So I have two gmails I only use for email (work, etc.). Thing is I've gotten confused a couple times and sent Hangouts from them to contacts, logged into google plus, etc. So I'd like to keep the account but only enable it for Gmail. I already disabled sync on everything else, but it still shows...

So I'm transferring my Google Music all access account to a new gmail account. I already downloaded my library and uploaded it to my new account and I'm not worried about the personalization (recommendations, etc) on the new account. I would however like to keep my playlists, any way to do this?

Google now keep this playing a notification about package that was delivered last year. The fedex website says it was delivered. I know it's not my device because this s persistent across upgrades and software resets, it's in the cloud.

Running latest slim Kat, Franco and xposed. My screen won't go off, and the timeout resets to 24h/always on, despite me changing it back. Here's some screens:

I've owned a Google Play white model for a couple months and recently acquired a T-Mobile Nexus 4 (black). GP is a 301k and T-Mobile a 401K. Both are 16GB. I'm going to sell one of them. Assuming I can sell both for the same price, is there any reason I should choose one over the other? Things...

Google Now seems much more capable than Google's (not ASOP's, which is not much better than Google's) voice dialer. I use it a lot since my BT Stereo has a dedicated call button that when held down brings it up. Is there any way to bring up google now instead of the voice dialer, without using a...

What happens to these images once they're off my phone? Tipically, I unload my pictures to iPhoto every couple months. For the first time, I have a ton of photosphere pictures, which I imagine can't be read by iPhoto. Can they at least be stored as a regular jpg,or will data necesarry to stitch...

I'm currently at the running CyanogenMod 10.1, and I think I'm just going to wait until they release a 10.2 build. I am however interested in updating the rest of the firmware, without flashing the system . Is this possible? Can I just download the factor image and edit it? Would deleting the...

I recently subscribed to GMusic all access, and I'm liking the service very much. I work out 4-5x week for 2h, and I need music. I've been using my Nexus 4 but it's too big and bulky and gets in the way. An armband helps, but I'd like to have a dedicated music playing device. It doesn't help...

There are two things I want to do with my contacts, but doing on a singular basis would take for ever. #1 add a "+1" to all US numbers, since my landline requires this to dial (and it shares my address book over bluetooth). #2 format my international numbers correctly. they're put in in two...

I listen to music on my car stereo via bluetooth, and sometimes I want it obscenely loud. Some newer cars have a feature that controls the volume as the speed changes: if you are going slow, or come to a stop, the volume is lowered (which is nice for a stoplight for example, where you may not...

I travel in and out of the US a couple times a year. ATM, I have a US payment method and address, I'm in the US using a T-Mobile SIM. I can't access country-restricted apps, such as Pandora and Hulu. According to MarketHelper (or whatever it was called) I am T-Mobile US. I've called contacted...

I just installed a new stereo receiver in my car. It's a JVC KD-X50BT. it works fine to skip tracks and such from the stereo , but it won't display the song name which, according to JVC, is related to the Nexus 4 not supporting bluetooth spp profile. Does anyone know anything about this? Sent...

I've seen lot's of great recommendations for Car Docks for the Nexus 4 without the bumper, and even then most of them don't have USB to dock and go, so I wanted to ask, does anyone know of a car dock that (like the cheap infuse dock) has the USB plug and also fits the Nexus 4 with the bumper on...

I'm on the $30/mo TMoblie and after half a month I'm out of minutes. What are my options for VoIP or other? I usually have WiFi... My priorities are: 1. Free 2. Transparent (the receiver sees my known number, not my GV). 3. Battery drain 4. Set up and forget about it (automatic based on WiFi, etc).

I'm going to be getting a new number with the T-Mobile $30/mo plan (please if someone can clarify the easiest way to get into this plan without getting a phone at Walmart and all I'd be grateful), and I'm interested in Google Voice. I think the features are cool, but I'm worried about how it...

As the title says, I messed up and bought the wrong color. This is the item I bought. I have to questions: Will it fit? Will it look berable? Also, what would you do if you were me? I kind of need an external battery because I can hardly make it thru the day.. //Off topic: how come no one...

Are we ever going to have a fully funcional JB with good battery life and all, now that we have the leak, or is the missing kernel still too big of a problem? I had to take my Atrix into the shop, and at first it appeard I was going to be getting a GS2 because they were out of Atrixes, but I...

Apps that use the lock screen (ex poweramp) don't work with the finger unlock screen, ie, you have to use either a double lock screen (slide w/ widgets + fingerprint), which is a pita in my opinion. Can't we get widgets to work directly from the fingerprint unlock screen? Sent from my MB860...

I currently have a Motorola Atrix, and while I love some of the features (led flash, fingerprint scanner, speed...), I'm fed up with waiting for moto to release updates, and the battery life is too short for me (I can't compare it to other smartphones thou, and I hear in general it's quite good...

1. Does switching between 3G and WiFi cause battery drain, vs leaving 3G on? I ask because I have about half of my classes in areas out of reach for my school's network, and I'm in doubt if it does any good to switch from WiFi to 3G when I'm only in range for a couple minutes. 2. In theory, can...

Hi, I'm rocking the latest CM7 nightly, which doesn't support WebTop, so I have a 1GB+ partition just taking up space of my precious storage (which is very limited since I only have a 2GB SD card for now). I just read this article, could this be used to get rid of the webtop partition (and...
