Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

While standing outside yesterday waiting to meet up with someone for the Steeler game I found a ticket on the ground. An expensive ticket, $260.
 
Just sold my Verizon Note 3!

Verizon, you are now in my rear-view mirror, you miserable pig.

Why hello, T-Mobile! You are just as hot in person as you are in the commercials!

My, my. . .

While T-Mobile may not near Verizon in nationwide coverage, they have made a lot of improvements over the last 2-3 years. It won't work for everyone, but I feel there's plenty of people on Verizon or AT&T that would be just fine on T-Mobile if given a chance.

I would have great coverage at work (1/2 mile from brand new array) but there is zero / 2g coverage at my house.:hmmmm2:

You could probably survive with a stable 2g at home due to likely having wifi, since 2g is enough to call/text. But if it's weak or unstable, that would be quite a dilemma unless you're comfortable using wifi calling either through T-Mobile or Google voice.

Does the coverage map show decent signal in the area of your house? If so, you might get them to send you a signal booster at no charge. . . .
 
My Best Buy finally received a 4K tv. It was so hard walking out of the store without it. 55" Samsung on sale for $3500. I've been looking at a 65" Sony for 2grand more.

Does it really look that good? I was always under the assumption that the higher in resolution the screen is, the worse the content looks if it's not up to par. For example, a 480p tv show on my 1080p Note 3 looks like garbage.

Won't 1080p content look like garbage on a 4k screen?

A lot of that depends on the scaler, they're not all the same.

Granted the tv has a constant loop of 4K media playing, it sells itself.

Your question was my big question. They just got it 4 days ago and of course Samsung sent their rep there. The rep told the employees that they have to make sure they mention it will upscale 1080p since there isn't much 4K media at the moment.

Okay. How about a demo of that?

Even the employee I was talking to asked the Rep that. The Rep said no.

The employee is pushing for a hidden bluray player so they can quickly demo that.
 
Yeah, since running Nova, I miss the transparent nav bar which I'm enjoying on my Gnex.
Will look into Xposed. Haven't used it; any tips or tricks?

Edit: Ah, looks pretty straight forward. Going to try it.
