    The Walking Dead on DirecTV Rant

    So all of last season my DirecTV DVR would dutifully record The Walking Dead on Sunday night. As soon as I learned that the new season was starting up, I checked my DVR to make sure my settings were OK. I learned that for some odd reason, the DVR had pushed the recording to Friday night, even...

    Help Fat fingered texting?

    Lately I've been feeling like a real klutz when I text. Lots of words wrong, and I constantly have to backspace or go back and correct my mistakes. I've tried Swiftkey 3 and the default keyboard that comes with the RAZR and I get the same results. So I'm wondering could my digitizer be out of...

    4.1.2 fixes boot into recovery

    When I picked up my N7, it came with 4.1.1. Everytime I tried to boot into recovery, my N7 would hang up. I could never get into recovery unless I used my PC, the Android SDK, and ADB. I flashed my N7 up to 4.1.2 last night and it appears they've fixed the boot issue. I can get into recovery...

    Help Voicemail in Default Cardock

    In the past couple of months since the ICS release, I remember hitting the voicemail button in the default cardock, and getting a menu from my visual voicemail app. Tonight I hit the button and it started to dial my voicemail number. I dug throught the settings and I can't seem to find any...

    I had a scare this evening

    I came home this evening, and I thought I had my N7 zipped into it's case. My tablet slipped out of the case and dropped about 3 feet to the floor and landed face down. I have seen enough internet drop tests to have my heart stop on the spot, but I got lucky, and the tablet was undamaged...

    Help GPS Acquisition Weirdness

    My DRM used to acquire satellite lock pretty fast, at least in the first 15-30 seconds. Lately it's been taking around 1.5-2 minutes to get a lock. Has anyone else seen this issue and can suggest a possible solution? I've reset my phone at least three times since ICS released, so I'm hoping that...

    Looking for a good Medication Manager

    I've seen a couple old posts, but I thought I would see if there was anything newer. I take a handful of pills every morning and I'd like a decent app to track my medications and remind me of what to take. It would also have doctor and pharmacy info. It's the kind of app when you go into the...

    N7 8GB vs. 16GB?

    Money's tight these days, but the lure of the N7 is great. I plan on selling off a few gadgets to fund the purchase. But I'd like your feedback on which version to get. If you made the purchase, did you get the 8 or 16GB version? If you got the 8GB version, do you find your experiece...

    Help ICS lock screen too aggressive?

    This is not a gripe, but more of an observation. If I'm doing something wrong, or if I've missed a setting, I hope someone will correct me. One thing I miss about Gingerbread is that when I dropped the phone into a dock (car or home) it would immediately go into the menu program that I had...

I have the ability to add a2dp support through my car stereo, but I only want a2dp through the stereo and not a hands-free connection if I can help it.

    Print directly from the phone

    I don't know if anyone noticed this, but the ICS upgrade brought an option that allows you to connect and print directly from your phone. I have two printers at home and was able to get my phone to connect and print to the newer wifi enabled inkjet. Sadly the older laser printer is not supported...

    Help Wipe internal memory?

    So I'm having a few minor issues after the ICS upgrade and I'm thinking of doing a factory reset and cleaning out my internal memory. Would there be any reason why I wouldn't select all and delete what's there, and then add back what I want from a back-up? I consider myself an advanced user, but...

    Does anyone with an Android phone actually use VZ Navigator?

    I feel the urge to ask this question, and I'm not doing it to knock on anyone that does, but does anyone with an Android phone use VZ Navigator? And if you do, can I ask why? I'm asking because if Verizon is pushing upgrade fees and usage fees on us, could we push back and say why are you...
