Anybody have any feedback on comparisons between the current generation Kindle Fire vs. the Nexus 7 (2012)? The Nexus 7 won't move past Lollipop, but putting Lollipop on the tablet is a death sentence for the tablet (major performance issues). If the current Fire has better specs, I want to...

Has anyone booted into recovery to clear the cache? I have the first two Nexus 7's and several misc Android phones, but the cache cleaner is...well...weird. Most of the devices that I use will clear the cache almost immediately, but the Nexus 9 can take from 5-10 minutes. I booted my Nexus 7...

Just got Lollipop on the Verizon s5. The jury is still out, but so far I can live with it. When you wake the phone, it gives you a slide to open screen which takes you to the actual lock screen. It seems kind of pointless because you still have to unlock the phone and it takes away the ability...

I'm not a fan of Touchwiz, so I have Nova Prime running on my s5. However, I've been curious about Samsung's My Magazine feature, which is similar to HTC's Blink feature. Does anyone know if it's possible to run My Magazine on other launchers? If not, can anyone suggest a similar widget?

OK, I'm not sure if this issue can be handled here, so mods move me if you need to do so... I usually buy my phones through Verizon, but this time I bought my s5 from Amazon. I'm having Bluetooth disconnect issues, so do I contact Verizon, Amazon, or Samsung for support? The issue that I'm...

I currently have the Samsung Galaxy s5 on Verizon, but I'm considering jumping to T-Mobile and taking up the HTC One (M8). If you changed phones, I'm looking for your input on why you did it and what your experience has been like. I know that both phones have their positive and negative...

music off of my tablet... :-) The Play Music app is sucking music off of my N7 and storing it in the cloud with my other music. I can accept it happening on my PC because I set that up, but there is music and sound files on my tablet that I don't want in the cloud, or even referenced in the...

Does anyone know of any car chargers that support putting the s4 into dock mode? I have a Verizon charger and a Motorola charger that only charge the phone, and I have a smaller adapter cable from a dock kit that will turn on the dock mode. I'm hoping to find a car charger that will eliminate...

Just curious, What did ya get?

Is there any way to disable the configuration shortcuts in the task area? I wouldn't mind them if they weren't so damn big...

I'm really sad to say that I've decided to move to a non-Motorola phone. I've been rocking Motorola since the Moto-Q and I enjoyed the Moto X, Bionic, and the DRM. I thought I could picture never getting anything else. I really liked the DRM and even though I had a few issues, I was holding on...

I just switched from a Moto Droid RAZR Maxx to the SGS4, and even though I've only had the phone for 24 hours, I am very happy with my purchase! I did a quick search of the forum and I couldn't find any information on docks, so if this has been addressed, please accept my apology. Can...

When you want to change your wallpaper, one of the choices is the Verizon Wallpaper option. This is the option that delivers up the wallpaper that has a lot of "red" themed backgrounds, and it's the option that I'm sure most of us never choose. So my question, has anyone found a way to remove...

Ok, I side loaded the JB update and did a factory reset on my DRM. I have a Nexus 7 and when I did the same for the latest JB update, it automaticall started reloading all of the apps that were previously installed on the tablet. This did not happen with my DRM. So my question, did anyone...

So months ago when Google changed their privacy policies to share data across all of their apps, I disabled web history in Google search. Maybe I'm a bit paranoid, but several on-line articles suggested to so, so I did. With the JB update comes Google Now, and guess what, Google Now turns your...

I have notification on lock set up on my Maxx. It was working OK but recently I've had temperature/heat problems on my phone, and shortly thereafter the notification just stopped. I've toggled it on/off, rebooted the phone, and cleared the cache, all with no luck. My gut tells me that I'm going...

So I'm considering a trip to Australia. Has anyone taken their VZW MAXX down under? If possible I would like to use it on a local plan and avoid the hefty international roaming charges. Any advice would be much appreciated...

I'm seeing a weird issue on the tablet in the play store. Sometimes I will select an app to look at the description, and when I hit the back button, the screen will flicker and then stay on the app description. I keep hitting the back button but the screen still flickers and stays on the app...

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...

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...

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 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...

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...

I have one of the newer Linksys routers with apps that allow me to manage the router from anywhere as long as I have internet access. I'm having a weird issue when I attempt to login into the app. I enter my user name and when I attempt to enter my password the program crashes and exits. I...

Is there any reason why I can't get the N7 into landscape mode? Or am I missing something?
