    Nexus 4 making strange noise

    Thank you from 2015!! I goggled this issue and found this thread, in my case it was an Oyster card (London transit) in one of the slots of my folio case for my nexus 6. Only happens when I flip the front over of course. I was a bit worried there!

    4.2.2 bricked phone

    phew!!!! it stayed on that red triangle screen for about 10 mins, then out of nowhere it restarted and now I'm back to normal. I don't think I'll try updating OTA again!

    4.2.2 bricked phone

    I just tried to install the 4.2.2 update - initially I had to install a 'bug fix' package, then it downloaded 4.2.2 but it said the download was corrupt. Now my screen just has a large red triangle with an exclamation mark over it! I have no idea what to do. I've lost everything!

    Stock browser vs Chrome!

    does anyone know of an Android browser that has 'scroll to top', as per Safari on iOS?

    Google keyboard vs sense 5 keyboard.

    it does look like with the obscenity filter disabled it will only offer the obscenity as a *suggested* word, i.e. it will NEVER allow a swearword as the automatically chosen word.

    hope Google don't kill this project, although then I'd be left with no way to complain.

    yep, perhaps a new keyboard would be a good idea.

    Play Music app not registering 'thumbs'

    This has happened since the last update, when I thumb-up a track the icon is highlighted, but when I return to the track later it has disappeared. The thumb is also not registered when looking at Google Music on the web. Does this happen to anyone else? I have an HTC One.

    Google keyboard vs sense 5 keyboard.

    just found the way to do this: http://phandroid.com/2012/07/26/emoji-support-appears-as-add-on-dictionary-in-jelly-bean/ it's not very intuitive or even good.

    Google keyboard vs sense 5 keyboard.

    I got as far as Google Keyboard Settings > Add-on Dictionaries > Emoji for English Words but no idea how to switch to it or if this is even a keyboard. I would expect Emoji to appear as an 'input language' but no sign of it.

    Google keyboard vs sense 5 keyboard.

    first thing I did was enable ducking obscene words.

    Tune in Radio Pro App buggy

    oh weird, it worked when I just tried it. I hated seeing it using up RAM when I never used it even once.

    Saving a picture when browsing Web

    oh I see what you mean now, within the Google app > Images it only has share. Apart from taking a screenshot then cropping the other alternative is to click the text underneath the pic which will take you to the host site where you can then long press to save.

    Saving a picture when browsing Web

    Chrome allows you to long press and then Save. the pics end up in the Downloads app also the 'All Downalods' album in the gallery. Even works for animated GIFs.
