    Help Screen comes on randomly

    OK, I have a really strange thing happening. The screen on my phone keeps coming on for no reason . I set the timeout to 15 sec after noticing this. Now the screen will come on then it goes off after the 15 sec and then comes back on after a few seconds. I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to...

    Help Ads in notification area

    Hi, I installed some application along the way that is putting advertising in my notification area. Also on occasion a new app icon will show up on one of my pages. Is there any way I can figure out what app is doing it instead of just randomly uninstalling apps to see if it goes away? TIA

    Case question

    I know there is a case thread here but I have to admit I'm lazy and don't want to read the entire thread. Has anyone found a TPU style case that has a screen cover? I don't like the loose fit or bulk of the "leather" cases, but I do want a screen cover. I like the turn on and off ability of...

    Root Rooting, warranty, and restoring

    Hi all! Just wondering if one can restore from root in a way that it is undetectable and therefore if it was returned, no warranty issues. If the answer is yes, can the restore be accomplished if for instance, the screen was dead? Trying to decide if I want to root immediately when I get...

    Micro SD expansion?

    I must be loosing it, I thought I saw somewhere that there was a Micro SD slot on the Nexus 7, but now I looked on the site and it does not mention that. Can someone please confirm the presence or absence of Micro SD (or other storage) expansion? I'm debating the 8GB vs the 16GB version and...

    Help ANT+ support in ICS?

    Does anyone know of plans to implement ANT+ support in Ice Cream Sandwich? I want to be able to use a heart rate monitor with my Gnex. I tried a Bluetooth one and it sucked! (Also lacked features I wanted) I talked to people at Verizon and they indicated that it was a software issue and not a...

    Help Help! Can't remove PIN

    Hi all, In an attempt to get my corporate e-mail to work with my phone I installed a certificate on the phone. ICS then forced me to enter a PIN to unlock the phone. Well, the certificate did not fix my e-mail problem and now I can't remove the PIN. I can only select Pattern, PIN or...

    Help Exchange Synchronization

    Hi, I'm doubtful that anyone will have a solution to this, but I'm giving it a shot anyway. I had my phone syncing my work e-mail perfectly. Then my IT department moved me to a new Exchange server (upgrated from 2003 to 2010, Might not hae the versions right) and I pointed my phone at the...

    [Verizon] MyBackup - is it "all that"

    Anyone have any experience with MyBackup? I want to unlock my boot loader and root but made the critical mistake of not reading up to see that unlocking the boot loader wipes all data and spent a lot of time customizing my phone. I already purchased Titanium so I want to stay with it, but...

    Help Calendar has stopped!

    Anyone else seeing issues with this? Every time I go to "refresh" my celendar I get a message saying "Unfortunately, Calendar has stopped" I am syncing with my Google calendar and my work Exchange calendar. Things were working just fine and a few days ago this started. Really frustrated...

    Regretting my choice?!?!?

    So I had an HTC Thunderbolt that I very much liked. Well, I cracked the digitizer AND soft bricked it with a ROM upgrade. My wife told me to go get a new phone, so I went for the newest shiny toy. Well (many might call me a looser for this) I am missing the sense launcher & widgets from HTC...

    Root So long & thanks for all the fish

    Thanks to everyone on here that has helped me out! I've jumped ship for the GNex. It's kind of funny, I cracked my digitizer back in July but it continued to work, so no big deal. Well it's slowly been loosing functionality (getting dead spots) so I ordered a digitizer to do the fix myself...

    Root Experience with BAMF SoaB 1.04?

    Anybody out there have experience running BAMF SoaB 1.04? Wanted to get a little "advance knowledge" before I move over to it. Also, does it sync with the HTC sync app? I need this to sync my Outlook calendar with my phone. I'm currently on Infected Eternity nightly 186. I love the sense 3.5...

    Help Calendar sync with Google

    I think I am having a problem with my calendar syncing with Google. I see events in my phone that say they are from Google calendar, but when I log into Google, I do not see any events. Curious to get this worked out because I just rooted & want to try other ROMs but need my calendar to sync...
