Re: [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep Unlimited Data on Verizon I've got a UDP on a single line. The last time I upgraded my phone, I bought the Galaxy S5 via Best Buy and did the SIM card switcheroo. I have been happy with my phone and haven't looked into how to upgrade and keep...

FoxFi tether still works after update.

Thanks for the tip! Everything seems to have worked out perfectly.

Very interesting. I've gotten all the way to checkout and it seems to be working fine with an HTC One M8 in the cart for $199.99. Assuming I can Wifi Tether with that device (and other threads seem to suggest it's possible with FoxFi), that'll be perfect.

Thanks, but the G2 through Best Buy is $1 only with a 2-year contract. When I add it to my cart, I can choose "Replace my device" and the price changes to $599.99, or I can choose "Upgrade my device" and I get the message: There's a change from Verizon Wireless for unlimited data plans. Verizon...

Thanks for the tip! I figure if I'm getting a new device anyway, I'd like to go to the best phone out there, which I think it's fair to say is no longer the GNex. Ideally, I'd like a Nexus 5, but that obviously can't happen on Verizon. So I'm thinking SGS5, HTC1 M8, Droid Maxx are probably the...

Looking for some advice. I've had my Samsung Galaxy Nexus on Verizon since release day: December 15, 2011. Once Verizon stopped releasing OS updates for the GN, I unlocked and rooted and have happily used the Shiny ROM ever since. Yesterday, cracks appeared and spread across my screen. It's...

Re: Anyway to force 4.2.2 update? My Google Framework Services says it is "Calculating..." data usage and has the Clear Data button grayed out. This has persisted through Force Stop, Disable, Enable, and reboot. Anyone else have this issue? Any advice?

Save me from the Microsoft Surface!

Harrisburg, PA: Down.

Hi all. I've had my GN since release day and it has been great. I've only had two problems, and they both concern Google apps. I'm wondering if anyone else has had the same experiences or can offer any advice. Google Sky Map When I am in automatic panning mode, this app is a disaster. When I...

Anyone get that e-mail we all signed up for two months ago? You know, the one that guarantees we'll be the first to know when the Nexus launches? I know I haven't gotten it.

I also got it for $250 in-store.

There were three of us at the Capital City Mall corporate kiosk outside Harrisburg, PA. It was perfect because there were three associates working. They started ringing us up around 8:50 -- 10 minutes before the store was set to open. It was nice to get to meet a fellow forum user, Hosehead...

I plan to buy the Nexus in-store in a couple of hours, but I added it to my online cart to see how the transaction would go. I had no trouble getting a -$50 discount (NE2 and an employer-related discount) and keeping my unlimited data.
