    Getting the Nexus 6P selling the Nexus 6 gets penuts?

    Personally have never had a problem selling or buying things on Craigslist. Always met in well lit public areas, near other people (and bring friend to sit nearby). Just make sure that the IMEI/ESN is valid and that the phone is paid for in full (a quick call to the carrier or using the...

    Experiences purchasing a 6P through Swappa/Newegg? Insurance options?

    Just bought my 6P a week couple of weeks ago, and just bought SquareTrade smartphone warranty for my phone, since I bought it from Amazon, was unable to get Google or Fi Protect. Hopefully I won't need to use it, but from reading reviews online, dealing with the Manufacture, can be a nightmare...

    Screen Cracked - Day 3

    And when it fell and hit the floor, did it hit a gym mat, foot thick pillow top mattress, plush carpet with padding or a tile/concrete/hard wood floor? Did it hit on a corner/edge or flat on the back or front of the phone? Really would not matter if the phone is plastic or metal, if it hits at...

    handfree problem

    Are you using wired Ear Phones or Bluetooth? If wired, are you pushing the plug fully into the jack? If Bluetooth, are you putting the Headset in pairing mode FIRST before trying to connect the first time? I use both BT and wired headsets and have never had a problem with them at all, either...

    Has the new web-based Android Market changed the game?

    Not that big a deal I suppose with both the Android Market and AppBrain doing push installs from their web sites. Both being tied to your gmail account that the phone uses. My one concern about tablets is, why would I pay more for a tablet, with less memory and storage than a netbook with a...

    Any lanyard strap solution for HTC Desire Z / G2 ?

    Sadly few of the cases I have seen have holes that you could put a lanyard on, that would not cause a problem with the case snapping onto the body of the phone. Nor have I seen reinforced lanyard holders/bars on any cases. And the cases that have holes near one end that you could get a loop...

    HELP - deleted system apps coming back

    I deleted a few apps, (after doing a complete backup), and so far they have stayed "dead". What did you try deleting that came back before you froze them? Titanium Back is a life saver that is for sure.;)

    HELP - deleted system apps coming back

    I think it would help, if you explained which root method you used, someone will will know where to start when helping you. And did you S-Off your root? (A mistake I made was to not S-Off) If you are doing a TEMP root, you wont be able to delete system files. Was not aware there were demo...

    Face hanging / dialing / muting / etc!

    I really tried to get my phone to hang up, mute or face dial (holding the phone to my face), and can not get it to happen on purpose or during normal use of the phone. So far the only thing I can do is change the call volume when changing hands/ears, during a call, but that is due to hitting...

    Sms Question for the g2

    Not sure if this is what you are after, but I use Handcent's SMS app, and that allows you to use any mp3 or other sounds files on your phone for each contact, as well as change the fonts for incoming and outgoing text for each contact. Handcent SMS - Android app on AppBrain

    Clockwork Recovery not working?

    Ok the root went find, all rooted apps work as they should. Once I try to reboot into Clockwork Recovery mode to do a back up, I can get into the normal Android Recovery Mode, but not the Clockwork Recovery Mode. Is Clockwork (from Rom Manager), suppose to automatically go into the recovery...
