    May want to check out Wear Mini Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.npi.wearminilauncher Gives you direct access to Brightness as well as the apps on your Android Wear device. Works really well.

    Random thoughts on Gear Live

    In agreement completely with all your comments. I actually like the band, not the easiest to get on, but seems secure and is really comfortable. One thing I would add is that it is a bit confusing to get some apps working if you are not familiar with how they interact with the watch. Great...

    Is TMobile's $30 4G plan gone?

    I just activated my daughter's unlocked iPhone 4 yesterday with a new sim from T-Mobile with $30, 100/Unlimited/Unlimited plan online with no issue. Even transfered her number in about 10 minutes total.

    Receive Contact by MMS from iPhone

    Seems issue is when someone adds text to the same message. File comes across as a media file that only contains the text. If there is no text added the card comes over fine.

    Using a foreign Nexus 4 in Japan

    I was just in Tokyo last week and had no trouble roaming with data with my T-Mobile sim card. Cost me a ton of money, but worked OK. Don't remember which carrier it was though.

    Your Previous Phone vs Nexus 4

    Previous Phone - iPhone 4s Miss: Camera, but not much iMessage - Just worked really well with other iOS users. Notice it a lot when someone tries to send me a contact and it gets garbled and useless Charge Time Battery - But have to say with 4.2.2 this may be a non-issue now for me Remote App...

    Good messaging app recommendation?

    MMS works in most recent version. ChompSMS is my favorite so far.

    How are you guys coping with the crappy battery life

    4.2.2 seems to have improved the situation further for me. Loaded it last night and this morning after 6 hours off the charger with reasonable use, 1 1/2 hours of screen time, I am at 70%.
