    Should I get the Razr or the Galaxy Nexus?

    Just wanted to confirm about the colors. I actually have my Droid X here right next to the Razr. Of course, the DX has an older LCD than the Rezound. Wow ... the colors on an LCD screen look so lame and washed out compared to AMOLED. Its like the LCD colors had been through the washer ... a...

    Should I get the Razr or the Galaxy Nexus?

    As with any question of this nature, YMMV (your mileage may vary). But in my case, three things I liked: 1.) I'm finding that its easier to see an AMOLED screen, especially when looking at the screen from an angle. 2.) I was thrilled that I could take a picture outdoors while actually seeing...

    Should I get the Razr or the Galaxy Nexus?

    For me, "slight" might actually be an understatement ... doc just told me this week may need to do surgery in 2012. And I've done vision therapy due to problems getting my eyes to work together as a team. So I need to squeak out every little bit of screen advantage that I can get. By the way...

    Should I get the Razr or the Galaxy Nexus?

    I have to agree. I've had my Razr for almost 2 weeks now. But I'm going to be returning it for the Nexus. Although both screens are similar, I have a slight visual problem so even a minor difference make a big difference to me. What I noticed is that the Nexus screen is noticeably easier on my...

    [HOW-TO] Return Your Nook Color to 1.1.0 Stock and re-root

    Thanks for this write-up! I'm just now in the process of following it step by step since I had various problems when going the B&N 1.0.1 > autonooter > pre-rooted 1.1.0 route. Then when I went back to stock, sideloaded B&N 1.1.0, and used the updated autonooter 3.0, ended up unable to get into...

    What's the best blurless rom for 2.2.1?

    Like you, I'm running ApeX, but may go back to a blur-less ROM for similar reasons. Also, for my eye's sake, I prefer as close to the stock Froyo apperance as possible, rather than the predominant black appearance. You might want to check out Fission, which I didn't see mentioned in this thread...

    Apps to config e-mail, text, AIM alerts for Deaf people?

    Apparently there are multiple developers out there who are willing to make this happen for repeat email (Gmail + Mail) notifications, but Google seems to not allow app developers this type of access. So it may have to come from within Google. I've submitted a feature request at "Google Code...

    Apps to config e-mail, text, AIM alerts for Deaf people?

    I am deaf, too. Been shopping for an Android phone for few weeks....HTC Hero, HTC Droid Eris or Motorola Droid. But big disappointment to find Android platform does not have a good repeat notification for email that can be used with vibration. Even checked with Verizon technician and he has no...
