    [Closed] The Android Central non-sexist, non-spammy OnePlus One contest

    I'd make good use of it, though the most frequent use I'd give it is as a vlog camera for uploading unedited lifecast vlogs to YouTube.

    [Closed] Win a (as in one) free smartphone from Android Central, Poweramp and Negri Electronics!

    Re: Fives days, five free phones: Win with Android Central, Poweramp and Negri Electronics! I would love to win a Galaxy S5, although I'm not sure the winner can actually choose the handset to get. All are good choices though so I'm in nonetheless.

    [Closed] Announcing Android Central's Nexus 7 a Week giveaway!

    I already have a tablet but my mom could use a Nexus 7 and I'd rather teach her to use an Android tablet than an iPad.

    ICS Update downloaded tonight via Kies = AWFUL

    Samsung doesn't give us an official way to downgrade but it is possible, although you'll have to reinstall all your applications. I followed the instructions on this xda-developers thread but because I wasn't interested in rooting the phone, I substituted the rooted ROM they suggest in Step 3...

    Samsung Pulls the Plug on ICS Update

    Looks like Samsung finally discovered that the keyboard backlight does not work in their ICS update for the Captivate Glide and have pulled the plug on it. If you did install the LH2 ICS update before, Kies won't downgrade you but instead will tell you that your phone does not support firmware...

    ICS Update downloaded tonight via Kies = AWFUL

    I noticed the wallpaper not scrolling. But that problem seems to be exclusive to the TouchWiz Launcher. I use Apex Launcher and don't have that problem.

    ICS Update downloaded tonight via Kies = AWFUL

    In the out of box Gingerbread software, videos always played in landscape, the way they should be played, even if you keep the keybozrd closed and even if you disabled auto-rotation. Samsung broke it in thei ICS "upgrade".

    Cross Flash

    First, the official ICS build was released today (although available since last night). Second, good news, yes you can flash your Rogers phone with AT&T software. I have two Glides, one from AT&T and one from Rogers flashed with AT&T software. Please note that if you have SIM unlocked your...

    ICS Update downloaded tonight via Kies = AWFUL

    Sadly the official ICS build for AT&T's Captivate Glide is available through Kies. The build number is I927UCLH2. Why is the update AWFUL? 1. KEYBOARD BACKLIGHT WON'T TURN ON!!! This is what happens when you copy and paste code for your touch-only devices into a device with a physical...

    Fed up with waiting for the ICS update??? (ICS has been leaked)

    Re: Is anyone else fed up with waiting for the ICS update??? I like how my Captivate Glide performs with Gingerbread but I still can't wait for the promised ICS update. All Samsung phones for AT&T that were promised ICS already got it, except for the Captivate Glide! I think Jelly Bean is still...

    There is a second 4.0.4 update for both the 10.1 and 7.0 Galaxy Tab 2 tablets. With the 10.1 model, it was confirmed that the second update removed local search support. It also added a couple of new features to the Samsung Keyboard (floating mode and split keyboard mode). As for the 7.0...

    Android 4.04 update

    The second 4.0.4 update also adds new keyboard options (floating and split keyboards). I never use local search so I don't mind it going away.

    HD in a Samsung tab?

    In addition to the 5.3-inch Galaxy Note "phablet" there is an upcoming tablet, the Galaxy Note 10.1 and that will be Samsung's flagship tablet, as the current Galaxy Tab 2 models are midrange devices.

    Play Store is Down

    I'm guessing this is a non-US problem so those of you in the USA would not have this problem.

    Play Store is Down

    For the past 24 hours I keep getting the following error on three of my four Android devices. "An error occurred retrieving information from the server ([DF-DFERH-01])." The only device where I have been able to access the Play Store is my actual cell phone with my active AT&T SIM card. A...
