    Root Win7 drivers harshin my mellow...

    "adb devices" yields blank space. after battling for a while, I did the "start from scratch": I used USBDeview to remove the 8 or so 'androidy' looking devices shown in my usb "history" I downloaded 'latest_usb_ driver_windows.zip' (from google page linked in OP of xda's driver troubles...

    Help simultaneous slimport and otg, not possible?

    I had visions of building a dock that would connect the nexus 5 both to: 1. a monitor (or tv) 2. usb hub (allowing access to keyboard, mouse, ext hd, etc.) but... my couple of hours of research is looking like this isn't possible, as there isn't a way to run slimport and otg hosting...

    Root quick darktremor questions...

    restating what I think is correct to solidify clarity... with dt, running the "a2sd reinstall" and "a2sd cachesd" commands moves already installed apps to the sd card. any apps installed thereafter, either via market or TB, get installed internally on the phone. Until the "a2sd...

    Root [CDMA] sd card performance tests for apps 'n' OSs

    The Mrs. and I get our new sd cards today. We went with Sandisk 32GB Class 4, part number SDSDQM-032G-B35N, $30 on Newegg. This choice was largely based on the small block random write ability of this card. I couldn't find a faster one that's 32GB. This thread is where I first learned of why one...

    Root updating the Mrs. to the good stuff...

    ermmm..... so what's the good stuff? Haven't been by in a while, the Mrs. doesn't like me playing with her evo too much. Last time I stopped in I asked, "what's the best path to sense 3.0?" at the time it was mikG 2.1+3.0 (v2.61), which I deployed to her phone, first, along with lithid's...

    Root [CDMA] how to stop google from backing up apps...?

    so at some point in history I checked the box to have Google back up my apps. anyone know how to shut this off, and perhaps delete the data it has? i would like to control this solely with TB. I just flashed ViperROM v1.3. During the intial setup I unchecked for Google to back up apps...

    Root sense 3.0? anyone a happy camper?

    the Mrs. is ready for a change... so I haven't been here in a while, and i see there are a few GB 2.3 w/ Sense 3.0 options out there now. what's the consensus word on this tasty duo running on the evo? is it smooth and wonderful? or is a little too much code causing some twitchiness...

    Root to EVO or not to EVO....

    i realize that coming here to ask this is like asking Stalin's opinion of Communism, perhaps more appropriately like asking Linus Torvalds' opinion of Linux, but anyhoo... My wife has left it in my hands to select her next phone. We're due for an upgrade w/ Sprint and it will either be the EVO...

    Viewing 3D pix in 2D?

    So far most reviews have mentioned that the 2D/3D toggle on the side of the phone switches pic/vid capture between 2D and 3D modes. I'm concerned about sometimes just not wanting to deal with 3D mode on the display, and have been hoping the 2D/3D toggle also switches the display between 2D...

    So there hasn't been one of these threads in the Sprint Hero section for while. With my recent discovery of Launcher Pro, I am trying a "back to the drawing board" regarding my home screen organization philosophy. The dock, with essentially 14 app shortcut slots available, may satisfy quick...
