Hmm. That is a good idea. The PITA part would be to get everything loaded from my phone to hers. I really wish I could run Titanium backup without root as it would make it super easy to move the apps over. Though I don't have that much loaded on my phone. Things that are a pain to set up have...

I don't want to root and have my mom run a modified ROM. They live about a half hour from me so I haven't tried a wipe of the phone yet and because of the distance I don't want to deal with the issues that sometimes come up when you go with modified ROMs when I am not there. She is a very basic...

That is what I am kind of thinking. Either the battery or the smart battery chips. I think I will try a wipe first but like I said but it is odd.

As the title states. Nexus 4 random power offs. Has anyone seen anything like this? Here is the background info: My parents have Nexus 4 phones as do I. All of our phones were ordered at the same time about 2 months or so ago when they became available again. All phones are the 16GB version...

Ordered on the 29 one 16GB and bumper followed by a second order of two more and two bumpers a couple minutes later. My wife just called and said that the single phone arrived today. No word on the double phone order yet. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2

Thanks. I saw some posts from a while back that hinted at that but it mentions an upcoming update which may change some things. To be safe I will test it with my new T-Mobile SIM when I get that. The Nexus 4 also uses the micro SIM. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

I'll try and keep this from turning into a book. Basically I have a HTC Thunderbolt right now. It is being replaced under the extended warranty that I have with Verizon. Since they don't have any more T-bolts they are sending me a HTC Incredible 4G under my total equipment protection policy...

Ordered the 29th and got a shipping notice from Google Play this morning that it has shipped along with the tracking number. UPS says I will have it on Monday. Still nothing from UPS My Choice. Maybe Google is getting better with their shipping notices.

Here is a link. I ordered from there this morning and it shipped. Got the notification and tracking number in a couple hours. Go figure... ;) http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/prepaid-phone/T-Mobile-Micro-SIM-Card-Activation-Kit

Crap, I forgot about the check block also. I don't know that the would need to open up the box. I would imagine that they know which device they are shipping to you and they could just watch for the device to show up on the web.

Where are people getting the shipping notification? Email to your Gmail account? I ordered 3 x 16GB Nexus 4 with bumpers on the afternoon of the 29th. Haven't seen anything yet. While normally I would be excited to get this anyhow, it is more of an issue for me now as my HTC Thunderbolt is...

I have the same issue and mine isn't rooted yet so I don't think it is an issue with that. A wipe of the device doesn't help but a reboot usually does. This is my second N7 as the first was a warranty replacement for the headphone jack issue. The first never had the issue so I think it is an...

I have the exact same issue. My first Nexus was fine but I had the issue of only one channel on the headphone jack. Didn't matter how hard I pushed in the plug. The replacement jumps all over the place a reboot seems to help for a bit so I don't know that it is hardware but a wipe of the device...

Well as I suspected still no email from Google saying I can order it but I did get confirmation and a tracking number showing my 16GB has shipped. The email request was sent to a different email address than my Google one. So it isn't like they skipped sending me the notification because I...

No I was wondering why they pulled the ability to order from Google Play. I was looking locally but couldn't find anything so I was going to just order off Play and wait for it. However while I could order the 8GB version the 16GB would only say let me know when it is available. This has been...

I am sure it is a temp issue of demand far exceeding supply with the 16 GB version. Add in the fact that there are always going to be units shipped that need to be replaced for whatever reason which we have seen reports on and I get that it will be a while. I just am kicking myself for not...

Hmm, seems that Google won't even let you order the 16GB version anymore. I was going to order one yesterday after I gave up trying to find one locally. I had it in my cart ready for checkout but didn't have my wallet on me as I wanted to put it on a different card than the one tied to Google...

Hmm, that is interesting. Now does it matter that I am booting off internal memory? I am not dual booted and have CyanogenMod on internal memory. I am running Google Maps which is one of the programs that is really slow on internal memory. My guess is that what you are saying would apply because...

I am mainly using Class 10 as that is what I had laying around in the Micro SD Card Format. I have a 32 GB Class 4 in my Thunderbolt and it is fine. Do you really think it would slow it down much if it is Class 10? I could always toss it in an adapter and use it in my Canon T3i.

That is what I typically run if my screen ever seems a little strange.

I have a Nook Color that is rooted running CyanogenMod 7.1.0 on internal memory. I have a 16GB Class 10 SD Card in it and was wondering what people are using for partitions on their SD Cards. I have pushed pretty much every app over to SD Card but some (not all) applications (Google Maps for...

I don't see them leaving us in the dark. As for getting the new one. At this point, nope. Not enough there to justify the $529. More memory, but no expansion?? 2nd Camera that I would never use. The Gyroscope. Eh. Really the only thing there is Android 2.3. It will come out eventually for...

Yea, when you root your phone you typically break the OTA updates. This is done on purpose so you don't loose root with an update. Typically there is a way to go back to the official build but I don't know what that is on the Droid as I don't have one.

She doesn't like the Google calendar. She liked the old Corporate one that came with the Droid. It seems to be gone though. Anyone else loose it?

I normally hang out in the Nexus area as that is my current phone. However my boss, Director of IT here at work has a Droid. Her phone today got the notification about the push to 2.2. Her phone is stock, (not rooted) and she followed the directions for the update. Things went well however...

Yeah, I see where I missed that it wasn't included in R22. :o Well I am back on R22. Things seem OK. For some reason I can't get into the market right now. I will play with it later. Other than that it seems to be working fine. I might want to make sure I am on the current radio build.

I upgraded to R22 and included the radio update. I wiped the phone and repartitioned the SD card so it was a clean install. When I went to set up my gmail account I noticed that I was no longer getting a data connection. I set up wifi and everything was fine but I could no longer get any data...

Thanks. It is a good thing I lived in Germany for 6 years and can still read quite a bit. No need to use the translation sites.

I have been looking into buying another kit J&M Kit for my bike that would let me do this. For all the parts that I want it is going to add another $500 in parts. That would give me A2DP BT connection to the phone for all sound, music and phone calls. It would also add GMRS/FRS radio for two way...

Let me know how it works if you think of it. I am leaning more towards a holder that holds the top of the phone as well. The other option that I am thinking about is the pelican case. I will drill a hole in it to feed a USB cable with a right angle micro USB plug through and seal it up. That...

What are you using the rivet gun for? It looks like you posted photos to a bar mount as well. A bar mount doesn't do me any good on the ST1300. It doesn't use traditional round bars like your bike. Bars on a ST1300

Yeah, while not as easy to put up on one wheel as a sport bike (it is 723lbs wet), it will lift in 1st and 2nd without much effort. That is a good point about needing a phone after an accident. Although after an accident hard enough where I might damage it in a mount, I probably wouldn't be...

I didn't mean that you were riding a cruiser, just that I would see it being an issue on that type of bike. Where I really have never been hit by anything other than that hands and helmet. Most people have no idea what a ST is because not many are imported so I wasn't sure if you knew what it...

Keep in mind there are many types of motorcycles out there. What you said is true on some. If I were riding a cruiser (Harley or one of the many clones) it would say I 100% agree. I don't think I would attempt this on that type of a bike. However the bike I am riding is a Honda ST1300. These...

Thanks, the one that resembles the Google mount where it wraps around the phone more might do the trick. While the bar mount included does me no good it looks like it has a ball on the end that may work with a RAM mount. If it doesn't I am only out $20. I think I will order one up.

I can't mount the suction cut to the wind screen as it has an electric windscreen that moves up and down. It would be fine if I had the screen up all the way but in the lower positions it wouldn't work out. About the only other place I could stick it would be on the tank and I don't like that...

Ok, I know it sounds crazy but has anyone out there found a good way to mount one of these to a motorcycle? I have a couple bikes but my new long distance bike is a Honda ST1300 and I am to a point where I am either going to install another Garmin mount for my Street Pilot 2730 on the ST1300 or...

I use Apps2SD and had lots of problems with the upgrade to 5.0.4 even thought I did the same steps as what you posted. 5.0.4 would do boot loops constantly. I ended up repartitioning the sd card. I wanted to get rid of a 64MB swap part that I had anyhow. Then uploaded 5.0.4 again reflashed it...

I'm not saying I couldn't find it. I am just saying that I wish it was still on the first post. Now I have to dig around other web sites to find it. As I mentioned in my post about the change log, I applied 5.0.4 because I saw it had the improvement to the rotation.

What happened to the change log. He always used to post what is new from the previous version. I miss that because I don't do very update. I would watch the change log until I saw something that I liked. For instance I decided to do 5.0.4 because I like how they added the rotation no matter...

I recently had to record a show for my parents who are out of town. Since I have Media Center on my Win 7 machine and a HD TV Tuner it was pretty easy to set up. Anyhow I wanted a way to convert the video from the default of a WTV file to a mp4 so that they could watch it since they don't have...

The original poster should call T-mobile again. As I mentioned in my post that the original insurance that I had on my G1 was more expensive. They may have changed it from the insurance that is something like $7/mo to the one that is about $5 ($4.75 or whatever). I got my phone early on so it is...

I have insurance on my ROOTED phone. You can have it. While it is true that rooting voids your warranty this has nothing to do with insurance. So look at it this way. I have a rooted phone and I loose it. I file a claim as loss is covered under the insurance. How on earth are they going to know...

OK, that is what I kind of thought. It isn't hurting anything so I will leave it there for now. Not like 64MB is much space that I am out.

For those of us that went into the boot loader to repartition the SD Card there is the option for creating a swap partition. What did you use for that? I did 64MB because that is what I had when I did Apps2SD on my G1. Just wondering if anyone else configured that and if so what size they used.

I had the same problem. I rebooted the phone again and it sat at the screen with the X and the unlocked symbol for a long time. I was starting to get worried because it sat there so long. Then I got the animation that it was booting. I think to myself that this was strange then I go into...

I put the Zagg on my G1 twice (had a phone replaced under warranty) and now one on my N1. They are a PITA. I have to say that they used to send a small spray bottle with the solution. Now they send this little try with a sponge. I found it easier to use the spray bottle when I did the G1...

Ok another noob question. I am running Beta 3 now and I see Beta 4 is out. It says to do a backup and then flash the new ROM. Do I need to reinstall the Google install package that I had to do when I originally installed Beta 3? I assume not but just wondering.

Cool, thanks. I didn't know anything about that.

Ok I have a dumb question. The data connection in the notification bar now shows E, H and 3G. Well I know what E and 3G are but what the heck is H? I never noticed this before installing 5.0 Beta 3 so it must be related to this build.
