Wish there was something more modern in the same form factor. Never got into using a tablet, but I now use this in Search and Rescue with a good bluetooth GPS receiver and a good mapping app (Locus). Nicer to have more real estate than a phone, especially if I'm showing it to the team and having...

I'm surprised no one said yes because of work! I want to keep work and play separate, so I have a Nexus 5 for personal and an iPhone 5S for work. Only carry the work phone during work hours though.

Just to add my own thoughts. Installed mine yesterday. First glass protector, and gotta say its super easy to install. Have 2 very tiny lines of micro bubbles (~2mm long) on the top and bottom bezels. Only visible if you tilt it to the light a certain way. I did have to sand a bit off the...

I also hated the fact that you couldn't hide certain folders in the native Gallery app, so I switched to QuickPic.

Anyone try their GPS in the bush or hard to track locations? I'm debating about getting a Garmin GLO (bluetooth GPS receiver) to use with the tablet. For one, I'm hoping it has better GPS reception (locks and stays locked), and trying to save battery on the device itself.

Buy it unlocked then. The Nexus 5 should be priced aggressively. Maybe not as cheap as the 4 was, but still affordable. Just swap the sim and your carrier is none the wiser.

Really like those icons!

Hey, At home, I have my music on a windows machine with share folders. I have a copy of the library copied on my laptop as well for back up. For playback and management, I use Winamp which can scan a folder and generate a browsable library. I'm using AWARemote to remotely control my...

Kingdom Rush Great Big War Game Strikefleet Omega (although can't finish the last level) Just started with Breach and Clear, but it's fun so far.

Never noticed multi-touch issues, but tried the "Yet another ..." app. No issues up to 8 fingers, but starts to get some random flickers at 9, and then more issues with 10. Will you ever need 10 multi touches? I don't think so.

Hey, I'm still getting use to this new Nexus 7 tablet, but the more I play with it, the more I discover what I do with it (especially with the larger screen compared with my Nexus 4). This weekend, I was figuring out how to work with my main desktop. Playing with TeamViewer (works pretty...

Hey, Anyone know if there are any cases out with an incorporated external battery? Just ran into a situation where I would like to run GPS continuously, but was worried about battery life. Wouldn't mind the added bulk of the battery case in those situation, and would just run it naked normally.

Re: Is there fm radio in nexus 4? I didn't know the existing chip could handle FM. That's pretty neat. I know my OLD OLD sansa clip mp3 player had a fm receiver which I though was pretty neat. Could be handy for sure.

No need to root. Just install one of the launchers.

Thanks. Tried it out and looks like it syncs all photos including some app ones (ie: Zooper). Found an app called FolderSync that does what I want. Point it towards the DCIM folder and one for Instagram and sync with Box/GDrive.
