Looking at picking up a Moto G at the weekend (can't ignore a phone this cheap with such good specs) however, I have heard a few stories of the phone going to hell when updated to KitKat and not holding onto it's network signal. Can anyone substantiate this or shed any light on it?

Anyone running this yet? I got it on but i dont have anything except the notification bar showing.

So, just got myself a new (to me) S2 epig touch 4g to replace my old phone, and because I hate bloatware (and because this is what I do with my phones) I'm planning on rooting it and putting a rom on it (likely super nexus or cyanogenmod I havent decided yet). However... I see from a lot...

Curious if anyone has been stung with a fake S3. I see a lot of "S3s" for sale on ebay and honestly it has crossed my mind to go after one since they are cheaper that way for me as I am not on a contract, but the cheaper price also makes me very cautious having seen several videos of the...

So I'm now having to seriously look at getting a new tablet (which would be a nexus obviously) after I managed to kill my 1st gen kindle fire (rooted running JB 4.2) but it comes at an awkward time. Why, because I am sat reading all this stuff from CES and can't help but wonder... How long...

Just realised I had not reinstalled this after all the playing around I have been doing with my kindle. Now having installed it Titanium Backup is telling me to turn on debug mode in settings>applications>debug checkbox I don't have an option passed apps, it just lists all the apps...

Was about to update my rom today to hashcode's latest with the deep sleep fix, however for some bizaar reason (though nothing has changed since I rooted it) the kindle will not connect to my computer, thus allowing me to access it to copy the files across. edit: Fixed it in recovery, though I...

Looking for a little info. I'm currently using a routed kindle 1st gen, running cyanogenmod 10.1 and the battery life isn't great. In a test over night in a 7 hours period (no WiFi, no notification, no sync, no sound, device in standby with screen off) 50% of the battery was used. Now that...

I installed hash codes room on Saturday to try it out, but they battery life on the kindle seems shockingly bad when running it. Yesterday the total time of charger before it had to be put back on was around 10 hours. Which would be good if that was 10 hours of screen time, but it wasn't I can't...

never mind, fixed it

Used Kindle Fire Utility from XDA developers to root. Followed the intruction on this video: How to Root - Kindle Fire 6.3 & 6.3.1 - YouTube Everything went fine except when kindle rebooted it sat on the loading screen and the kindle fire utility said waiting for device. It stayed that way...

wrong forum sorry

So, While helping someone buy a new computer today I was playing with the new Kindle Fire HD. My thoughts on it, as an owner of the 1st gen Fire... It's a lot lighter than the 1st gen, but it just doesn't feel as well put together, I'm not sure it could take the knocks that mine has taken...
