I recently upgraded to a Nexus 4 from a Gnex. I usually place my phone on top of the PC sitting beside my computer desk, and when I do this with my Nexus 4, it randomly falls off the PC. I guess that the slippery glass back of the phone makes the whole thing slide whenever it vibrates. As it...

I've got a Nexus 10 in my possession that belongs to my dad; he's going to be picking it up soon when he comes into town, as an upgrade for his 1st gen iPad. He's a total Android noob, and so I'm looking for some sort of help/docs, other than the little quick start guide the tablet came with...

As I understand it, the Miracast option isn't good for much until devices start hitting the market, but was wondering if the option is available on the Nexus 7 with the 4.2 update, or is that just a Nexus 4/10 thing? Since the Nexus 7 doesn't have any video out capabilities, this would be nice...

When I first got my unlocked GSM Gnex about a month ago, I could manage about 2mbps. But when I found out about APN settings and tweaked those, now I get 3.5 - 4mbps. And that is with full bars of HSPA+. Somehow, I was thinking HSPA+ was supposed to be faster than that? I don't know much about...

My Galaxy Nexus is currently out of commission, so had to fall back on my Droid Incredible for awhile until I can get the Gnex fixed, and Gingerbread is killing me :) Anyone recommend an ICS rom that runs relatively smoothly? Somebody in another thread mentioned that AOKP lagged a lot, so not...

Here is the SIM card that AT&T snail mailed me for my unlocked GSM Gnex: It seems too small, so wondering if it's the right size? If not, what do I have, vs what do I need? EDIT: I found a SIM card in an old AT&T phone, which seems to fit better: However, it still says 'No SIM card' when...

After reading about the various problems people are having with the N7, looks like this device has more issues than Rolling Stone. Thus, I'd rather buy it locally in case I get a dud, so I can exchange it without having to deal with shipping it back. Anybody know where to get one? I know Office...

After being told for the 100th time that "You're breaking up.... I can't hear you..." my Verizon Gnex is being permanently retired, since it is utterly useless as a phone. I understand that the GSM Gnex doesn't have a horrible radio like the Verizon version does. That being the case, can I just...

When I make/receive calls with my VZW Gnex, the other caller can't hear me because I keep breaking up. I've heard of mic cut-out issues, but this doesn't seem to be the same thing, since it doesn't cut out completely. I can usually hear the other person ok when this happens, esp if they are on a...

I just got this USB adapter for my PC, so that I could play audio from my Gnex thru my computer speakers (Windows 7 64-bit) from across the room: Amazon.com: Medialink USB Bluetooth Adapter - Version 4.0 (Newest Bluetooth Version Available) Class 2 Smart Ready Adapter w/ Low Energy Technology -...

Just got my TF300 yesterday. Everything was going great until a few minutes ago... was downloading some apps from Google Play, when suddenly the tablet appeared to become unresponsive. I turned off and turned back on... it seemed to be operating normally, but the touch screen would not respond...

I've heard a lot of whaling and gnashing of teeth about how craptastic and laggy the stok browser is on this tablet. Has anybody tried running Chrome? If so, how does it compare?

Just curious if anybody is using this for the GNex, or something similar: http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Bluetooth-Hands-Free-Blackberry-Smartphones/dp/B004CLYJ2I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329119058&sr=8-1 I've seen one report that says it works well with the Gnex. Supposedly, you can press it...

I have a Galaxy Nexus, and have a 4g signal almost everywhere I go. But when I lose 4g, instead of falling back to 3g gracefully as I thought it would, it usually goes into a coma for several minutes where no data is available, and when it does come up, 3g speeds are a bit underwhelming when...

I'm in Austin, TX and I've gotten speeds anywhere from 3mbps to 17mbps. Is it normal to have such variation in speeds just driving around town, and what is considered fast on LTE? Even standing in one spot, I've had speeds ranging from 3mpbs to 9mbps, and a couple of network errors in between...
