I'm on the TMo $30 plan which has no data coverage between cities. Their other plans have minimal (<50 MB) roaming allowances. I use Google Voice so other carriers won't be a problem. I considered getting a ST ATT sim but I've read mixed info on coverage. Are there any other suggestions for...

About 6 months later than rumored, but it's finally here! It looks like there's still some work to be done, though. I never got prompted about SMS like in a screenshot I've seen, but it seems the functionality will roll out in a few more days? Here are a couple articles about it Hangouts 2.3...

I know you can "fix incorrect match" for any unwanted censored songs, but it's very inconvenient to find and fix the problems one song at a time at home. I only uploaded a small part of my library, but after a few months of regular use I'm still coming across censored songs and it's rather...

It's free on the Amazon appstore today (along with other apps like Swype!), but it shows as not compatible both there and google play store. Any idea why and how to get it to install?

I bought this one from monoprice and the screen shows up in portrait but is very buggy and often just goes black. On landscape, it fails to get the data and I get the appropriate blue display. I plugged in usb power and it could sometimes display a static image on landscape but it doesn't...

I've been leaning toward AOSB as my daily driver, but being CM-based, Franco isn't compatible with it. Are there any good alternatives for battery life optimization? A quick search only brought up info from months ago which I take as a bad sign.

Anybody notice some backlight showing through at the top edge of the screen? It seems like there's 1/16" strip of screen that's brighter on my phone, even if it should be black.

Goo manager notified me of another update, but I'm 300 pages a lot of pages behind after a day of not looking at the xda thread. (I misread total page count). I wanted to keep track of important posts from there for myself, and I figured it wouldn't be much harder to flesh out a fuller FAQ from...

The thread at xda is too crazy for me to add more there. Installed PA last night and chrome wasn't in the gapps zip. My titanium backup won't install it, it just hangs. Same with face unlock, though the apk is present in the "optional" folder of gapps. When I try to install the apk, the...

This is the second time something really weird happened while using the camera. The first time, the screen turned off and the phone made strange sounds (not by speaker). I power cycled and it was fine. This time the screen stayed on and I managed to get screenshots, and it returned to normal...

I'm happy with the stock rom for now, but as new roms get fleshed out, I might be tempted to try one or two out. I've needed to do battery pulls several times with my previous phone, so what would we do if that were ever needed for the N4? Wait for the battery to drain? Pray it's never needed?

It seems like the screen wants to rotate right around the 45 degree angle. That makes for many unintentional screen rotations, and it gets annoying with a slow phone and apps that reset to the top of page when the screen rotates. Would there be an easy way to change the threshold at which the...

Skip these, use this process instead Disclaimer: I hardly know the ins and outs of this. This is just putting together all the info I&#8217;ve gathered from the web and from the mistakes I made doing this. That also means there might be a much easier or more efficient way to do this. Easy...

Somebody mentioned a new version of swype in an app thread, so I decided to get it. After starting the installation process, I smacked into the big wall of disappointment for a second time. Can't install it on phones that come preinstalled with swype, like the Vortex. But wait! My phone is...
