Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Morning everyone and welcome to our new guests! Cool to have a ROM Dev here. :)
Well, looks like I screwed up my N7 or something. Can't seem to find the problem. If anyone has any ideas, here's the thread:

Got it solved, found out backups were taking up so much of my internal storage.
I think I'll be fine, but now I'm thinking I should have got the 16Gb. Honestly, I'm not sure I'll even ROM it that much, but when I do I'll be offloading the bulk of my nandroids to the PC.

Yeah, saw that and would have recommended backups. I haven't done anything to my N7 that would warrant a backup yet, so I haven't created any. I liked your opening screenshot. I never had insufficient space in my wallet before.:rofl:
 
You just shut your mouth! :p
I only noticed it when I tried installing Wallet (for S&Gs, not sure I'll use it) and got that pop up and did this :eek:!
Wife was mad since she couldn't install Twitter either :rolleyes:. I had no media on the device and maybe 3 apps installed. Was so confused but glad I got it working again.
Made another idiot move and complained I couldn't install Astro to see what was taking up so much space. Well, duh, mount it to my PC and look from there. :o

My OneX TW backups are over 2 GB so with the limited space on it I only keep one backup... I miss my 32 GB on the Nexus but I don't miss Verizon.

Is it across the board that TWRP nandroids are that much larger than CWM? If so, I may suck it up and move back to CWM for my Nexus. Haven't looking into my Gnex on what it is.

Isn't compression on backup optional in TWRP whereas it is standard on CWM? That could explain the size difference.
 
Gah all this N7 talk is making me hungry for one! I was also a Google IO contest winner along with Dana. If it wasn't for that, I'd have one in my claws right now. I'm still tempted to buy one and give the second one to my girlfriend.

any hoot....How was everyone's weekend? Mine was pretty relaxing - Saw "The Watch" on Friday which is your run of the mill guy comedy. There was an Arts and Wine festival in town on Saturday which the lady friend and I went to. Sunday was pool and relax day. All this relaxing and I still want more! I am a total Zombie today. I stayed up late watching this show on Hulu called "The Yard." I think you guys should check it out. It's about little kids on a playground but it's almost metaphorical for a prison...funny stuff.

Anyone ever feel like writing in this thread is a lot like writing in your diary :P

Saw that on The Verge. Wonder what's up. :confused:

It happens occasionally. Wikipedia's servers are heavily worked at all times. Not many people know just how underfunded and undermanned the WMF is considering that Wikipedia is among the top 5 (at least top 10) most visited sites on the web. I was actually on there doing admin stuff earlier when it crashed. Can't remember if I've ever mentioned here before that I'm an admin.

A few photos maybe NSFW. I still maintain Sherapova towards the top but Vera Zvonareva is gorgeous. :)

Haha, definitely. I was just coming to post about my weekend :) On Saturday, my friend had his annual summer bbq; we had burgers, dogs, ribs, and steak tips. Played some volleyball, though I took a dive and messed up my knee; it's a little stiff today. Sunday I got the urge to cook, I made twice baked potatoes stuffed with cheddar and bacon, and smokehouse maple pork chops. Everything came out great, it was delicious :D

Hope everyone else's weekend was great :)

You my friend, know how to eat! Thank goodness I finished my detox or this post would have sent me jumping off our 10 story building.
 
Charged the Gnex last night. Left over night, slowly trickled discharged. Woke up this morning, checked it the battery level was fine. Moved the phone over to my table, went up to take a shower, come back 20 minutes later, the phone is warm, almost too warm and the battery down by a quarter. :rolleyes:

If anything, it was closer to the network extender and the router.
 
So I saw the other posts on the last page about Google Wallet, and decided to finally give it a whirl.

I opened up Wallet for the first time ever; it asked me for my email address, and a screen came up where you could pick CitiCard (which I don't have), a Pre-Paid card, and a gift card. I selected Pre-Paid, and it said "verifying" for a while, and then it said I have a $10 credit. Is this all I have to do?

I wasn't asked anywhere to input my credit card info.
 
Han - you should also be able to add your other credit cards.

You're gonna need to be on version 1.5-R75v6 which will allow for all your credit/debit cards to be added. I used my debit card at 7-11 twice this weekend. Was pretty neat.
 
Just dropping in to say hi. Back from our trip and had a blast! Back to work tomorrow though :(
