    Vibrate on a call

    My friend doesn't have the profile app. I tested on a Nexus 4 before and after installing the app. Bizarrely, I just tested it on another N5 and it worked fine. I'm confused! Posted via the Android Central App

    Vibrate on a call

    Hey all, This one should've been simple, but I'm stumped. When I use the volume rocker (I'm on Lollipop) to go down to vibrate, notifications vibrate and make no sound, but if a call comes through, it turns off vibrate and rings with the ring tone. How do you, in a simple way, make the phone...

    Gmail not updating "read" status on mobile devices today?

    Problem has now been solved, by doing... Nothing. If it was a problem with local servers, then Google has fixed the problem.

    Gmail not updating "read" status on mobile devices today?

    This is what seems to be happening to me today. I have a G. Nex (4.2.1), Nexus 4 (4.2.2) and a Nexus 7 (4.2.2). When I get an email on any of my linked Gmail addresses, it will come through to all three devices, every time, all within about 5 seconds of each other. Perfect. However now, when...

    Is the Play Store out for anyone else?

    Is the Play Store out for anyone else?

    Tried it on my G.Nex and Nexus 7 and both can't connect. I sit in the UK if it helps.

    Chrome laggy on n7

    I'm not 100% sure if Chrome is causing this but my Chrome has started lagging. I've had my Nexus 7 for about 10 days and it was fine up until the last 36 hours. In essence I am still trouble shooting. But still, Chrome has more consistent lag than anything else. (Even if it's working great...

    Microsoft Surface. 3rd gen iPad. Is there really any hope?

    We all know about the iPad. We all know about the iPad specific apps, and the polish put on them. Old news. Now we have Windows 8 and Microsoft Surface. Now, I had this opinion before Surface that Windows 8 is designed specifically as a tablet OS and with the unquestionable juggernaut that is...

    Is there an SMS filter app which uses Boolean operators?

    I'm trying it but I can't see how it helps. Without sounding like a dunce, can you let me know how it is meant to work. I can only see how to add calls to profiles.

    Many problems with new version of Facebook

    I understand many many people have been having problems. I know this because the latest fb update sucked on my Desire (Cyanogenmodded up). So I simply went back to an earlier version. I suggest you do too.

    Any good Music + podcatcher apps?

    You could try Google Listen. It's certainly not perfect and (as usual) the UI could do with some polish, but it generally gets the job done. I also use Media Monkey (on the desktop) which syncs with my phone and I play it through Power AMP. Again, not a perfect solution but it's ok for when I...

    Is there an SMS filter app which uses Boolean operators?

    I'm increasingly getting really annoying spam SMS messages. Generally saying I am entitled to millions and millions for my accident. Unless it was an accident cooking, it's an accident which I don't remember having. The filters I've seen just have a list of terms which it will filter against...

    Battery display

    Hey all, In this article, Phil's Nexus One shows the battery display in the top right with the numbers in a percentage as well as the bar. Is this an app or a hack? I'd really like to have this.

    Detailed Desire reviews

    Techradar They now rate it as the top smartphone available today beating the iPhone 3GS into 2nd spot. Tracy and Matt "They said that the Nexus One took the smartphone to a new level and the term 'superphone' has been used a few times. If that's the case then I don't know what superlative I...
