    Help with Google Nav 7.0.2!! PLEASE

    Yes, traffic is on, that one is easy to find on the left menu. You addressed exactly what I'm baffled about. Why doesn't the screen stay on when not utilizing active turn-by-turn in 7.0 when it did in 6.X?? Why should I have to go into display settings now to do this? Why doesn't "fly...

    I have a GNEX and I HATE THE NEW NAV. screen won't stay on unless an address is inputted. Also, "fly behind" doesn't stay there. USELESS as an app to watch "traffic". rolling back or going with WAZE

    Help with Google Nav 7.0.2!! PLEASE

    I consider myself a power user and for the life of me, I cannot figure out the new Navigation feature on Google Maps. I understand that if I want to drive somewhere, I can input the address and get there just fine. HOWEVER, the majority of the time, I know where I'm going so I don't need turn...

    New to Android can I Instant message IOS users???

    AS much as I hate to say it, Facebook is a good option for IM. You don't even need to download the facebook IM app. IM is built right in to the official app. Tell your friends to turn on notifications for IM in facebook and you're set. If they're a Google+ user already, you can do the same...

    iPad Mini resolution no match for Nexus 7.

    Not sure if said already, but I think the 16GB will be 199 and the 32gb will be 249. I also think the 32gb will have 100MB a month for free for 1 year (maybe 2). Think about this for a second. The 32GB mini with cellular is 559 + contract. (yes it has LTE). While the N7 32 GB cellular will...

    VZW JB Update - Battery Life Thread

    Had to do a hard reset. Really bums me out having to set this up all over again. What a major pain. the phone was killing battery for no reason, and today a new development. It was almost bootlooping. Yep, bootlooping. I'd get to my homescreen, but after a minute it would go to the...

    VZW JB Update - Battery Life Thread

    Back to the same issues a few weeks ago. Using OS monitor, the "system" process is running and is accounting for 50% CPU usage. It won't stop. Battery pulls don't work. I can "stop" the process with OS monitor, but it just starts again. I have the absolute minimum running on this phone...

    I am getting the worst battery life I have ever seen.

    This should be in the battery life thread. I was having the same issues, now it seems to be a bit better. I didn't do anything but install OS monitor. Do you have light flow? It doesn't really work with JB yet, and I'm wondering if it is creating an issue.

    VZW JB Update - Battery Life Thread

    I am getting great standby time. Better than ive EVER HAD. However, when the screen is on it gets hot ver quickly and the battery goes extraordinarily fast. Like I am intensive gaming or something even though I'm only using chrome. Will do more testing to see if it continues.

    VZW JB Update - Battery Life Thread

    OK. Now I'm having great battery life. I installed OS Monitor to see what was going on. Couldn't really tell but I could see the CPU was running @ 50%+ for no reason. I got rid of some apps including light flow. I also removed a lot of widgets although I out two back on. Looking at the screen...

    VZW JB Update - Battery Life Thread

    at 28% it leveled off, had a 12 minute phone call and it was at 20% when I hung up. Thats absurd. edit: 25 minutes later - 8%. I've done nothing. I talked to a verizon guy, he can give me a replacement refurb or I can try the hard reset. If I have to hard reset this, I'm going to root and...

    VZW JB Update - Battery Life Thread

    ha, well its not much help if its dead in about 6 hours. One thing I did do is delete APEX launcher. I had it installed, but was not using it. You can see in the screen shot that it has leveled off some. I'm wondering why SDcard is at 9% or Media is at 6%. I was accessing my gallary for a...
