So I've been without my phone for almost exactly one year (screwed up ROM, then I lost the damn thing in my house and only just now found it). Now that I have it though, the extended battery that was in it seems to be completely dead, and I'm currently charging up the original OEM battery. Can...

Rooted, running Sourcery (not sure which version anymore tbh), CWM recovery. I dropped my phone last night and originally everything seemed ok. I woke up today to see it saying that my SIM card had been removed... Ok no problem, happened before after dropping it.. pulled the battery, removed...

A relative lost their charger for their Nook HD+. On the Barnes & Noble website, it's listed, but not for sale. Checking the stores, it's out of stock, and can't be ordered at all. The best I was able to find was a data cable, without the charger, on Amazon for under $8. I haven't been able...

So on a relative's Rezound, their softkeys completely stopped working (which I see has become something of a common problem for the Rezound as of late). They made an insurance claim, and got a replacement Rezound. All is well with that phone. The problem is, that the contacts from the old...

Is there any fix for keyboards acting all funky on JB ROMs? I've only run two JB ROMs so far. One of the ones based on the leaked GSM backup from Google I/O, and the problems with Swype annoyed the hell out of me. Been using Sourcery 2.2 for a few days and it's pretty much the same deal. The...

Google, is going to release an OTA to disable local searches from the search functions on the Galaxy Nexus. It's in an effort to avoid the ban that would result from the injunction granted in favor of Apple against Samsung and Google regarding certain (questionable) patent claims. Basically it...

So I finally got settled into a new ROM (This one, with the radios and the power menu + tethering mod, both linked in that post), and have both it and my old stock ROM as NANDroid backups. Most things are good so far but I have a few questions: 1. What's the best way to backup browser...

So a family member has a Rezound, and recently tried using its GPS to record walking tracks to know how far they walked. They tested several programs all with the same results. This is a screenshot (with streets edited out) of what happened when they went for a walk and mapped it with My...

I've noticed a couple things about my Galaxy Nexus and was wondering if anyone has anything similar going on with theirs. First, the more concerning of the two, there is a slight rattle when my phone is shaken front to back. The rattle is coming from somewhere in the vicinity of the camera...

Ok so here's the deal. My mother had a Droid 2, setup a gmail to use with it and all worked well. Well, when her car charger broke the store rep talked her into upgrading to the Droid Razr. Only problem is she didn't recall her account details so he set her up with a new gmail account. Things...

Yesterday I was browsing the forums on my Galaxy Nexus (on wifi), and the phone just randomly rebooted. Screen went black, I figured the screen timed out, but a split second later the white "Google" appeared on the screen. Today, I was sitting at the computer playing video games, with my phone...

In the market it says I have Google Earth installed. In the marketplace website it says it's installed. However, in the market there's no option to open, uninstall, or update. It's not in my app drawer, nor is it in my app list so I could try uninstalling it manually. I really wanted to test...

So since the Galaxy Nexus stupidly doesn't have removable storage, we have to use MTP or PTP to transfer files. That's leaving me unable to restore some old apps I had on my old phone. Namely, Note Everything's folder doesn't show up on my PC with my Galaxy Nexus hooked up. I copied the files...

I'm considering the Galaxy Nexus as an upgrade from my Motorola Droid. One thing I LOVE about my droid is the screen. The amazing picture quality aside, I really dig how strong the Droid's Gorilla Glass screen is. In all this time, it still doesn't have a scratch on it, and I haven't exactly...

So my Droid is well past eligibility for an upgrade, and I'm finally considering taking the leap. Right now the only two contenders appear to be the Galaxy Nexus, and the Droid Bionic (I'll take a look at HTC's offerings as well though). I'm really not sure which, if either would be the way...
