Somehow all my notifications are not working anymore. They simply don't appear at all. I can force sync Gmail but it won't pull them at all. I'm seeing the same thing with Handcent too. I can't figure it out. I recently had "rpc:s-5:AEC-0" issues and so did a number of attempted...

So recently I've noticed that my Nexus has been running significantly slower than previously; opening an app results in a long wait period for example, and booting up takes an inordinately long time (longer since i got jelly bean) Now, obviously, a year later I don't expect it to be...

I (finally) got my update to JB this morning and gleefully installed it. However, ever since, each time I receive a text message and then read it, Handcent serves up another notification saying I have like, 120 unread messages. What I really have is NO new messages but that many threads...

Say I manually copy all the files on my phone via the Android File Transfer program onto my mac... And then suppose I decide to root my phone... when I'm finished with the rooting process, can I then upload those files BACK onto my phone and have my various apps' data restored as they were?

I've had my Nexus since February and i've been loving it. I didn't root the phone when i first got it and i'm wondering if i should now or if it isn't worth it. So, what advantages am i getting from rooting, what things am i missing out on?

I have seen this now on several different apps on my phone, does anyone know a) why this is happening, 2) how to fix/prevent it? (the apps i took screenshots with were Epicurious and Flashlight) Thanks!

So i got my brand new nexus yesterday (finally!) coming over from the Incredible. I'm still making my way around, getting used to all the changes. I tried to add my Facebook account to "accounts & sync" and the first time i tried it gave me a line to log in and put my password. but nothing...

So, a while ago when I dropped my phone the top plastic piece of the casing that holds the USB cord in place in the phone broke off. Now, instead of holding the cord tight it is loose and i dislike this is there any way i can somehow replace that or am I basically S.O.L.?

So my phone all of a sudden crashed while I was playing a game. Then it froze when booting after doing a battery pull. Now it loads no problem but my SD card isn't loading, nor the apps on it, and so I'm getting a ton of forced closes and such. I've tried unmounting and mounting the card and...

for the last few days i have several apps that dont want to install, or uninstall, or update i tried deleting them via appbrain, and that hasnt changed anything, i tried canceling their updates or installs in the market, but that hasnt worked, i tried shutting the phone off, i tried a...

Since I updated to Froyo my phone has been way more sensitive than I'd like it to be, switching to landscape view for instance if the phone is only slightly moved. I recalibrated it and it's still doing this. Anyone else experiencing this? Have any solutions?

So, one of my friends has two facebook accounts and for some reason I can't change the contact name on my phone. Instead of saying his name it gives me his band, even though the band is not in my contacts and I even deleted it as a friend. When i get a text, for instance, and try pulling...

on my roommate's Nexus his marketplace features three top tabs "apps" "games" "downloads" is there any way to change it so instead of having the useless "verizon" tab i can have the far more useful "downloads" one? i only got my incredible sat., from a blackberry, so any simplistic...

on my roommate's Nexus his Android marketplace's three tabs are "apps "games" "downloads" is there a way i can get rid of the useless "verizon" tab and instead have the "downloads" there instead of through the menu button?
