Try downloading Skitch from the app store. Lets you make some nice quick annotations and edits to screenshots (and other images).

Re: Notification LED It sounds like the AMOLED screen will show notifications instead of having the separate LED (similar to the Moto X). The functionality has been built into android lollipop and is far to superior than a simple color LED.

Why would the carriers want to prevent Android Silver? They would still be subsidized devices and would make them the same amount of money as any other phone.

Yep, Google has confirmed that it's a new messaging App (according to AndroidPolice). Very interesting. Google: The New "Messenger" App In Android 5.0 Is A Stock SMS/MMS Solution, Not A Hangouts Replacement / Rebrand

Is this an updated Hangouts icon (since Hangouts isn't shown anywhere else) or is this a totally new messaging app in Android Lollipop? Anyone have any idea?

Re: Moto camera update Because megapixels are literally the least important spec when it comes to camera quality (at least once you reach that 8 MP number). You don't need more detail than 8 MP unless you're cropping into something tiny which most people don't care about. The size/type of the...

Another request for more battery & camera info being that I'm sold on this thing aside from those two components. I keep hearing the camera is "better than the original" but that's not saying much since the original was the worst smartphone camera I had used since 2009. Can the camera compete...

No, this is not why the iPhone is the most popular device in the world. It has to do with the fact that it provides a seamless experience, has higher quality apps (yes, still), has apps that keep you in the ecosystem (ie: facetime, iMessage, etc), has great integration with the Mac, still has...

Oh, my friend, you should go back and do your homework. Whether it's technically a developer conference or not is not the point. The history of the event, and the keynote in particular, is that they release new products, applications, and services for the mainstream consumer. 2013 Google Play...

Anyone know when this will become available from HTC? Are there any other manufacturers or 3rd party chargers that have this capability with the M8?

There were a few things I was REALLY hoped to hear about today and Google failed to mention anything about any of them. Update to Google Voice...NOTHING Update to Hangouts web app. Specifically allowing users to SMS/MMS from their browser...NOTHING Information about the Android Silver...

Yes it has the Nexus 5 dialer and battery life has been about the same as the sense version for me.

Not for me.

Switched from the Nexus 5 to an AT&T HTC One M8 which has since been converted to a Google Play Edition. Not looking back!

Would anyone be willing to provide a step by step guide to converting a carrier branded version of the M8 to a Developer Edition version? It would be greatly appreciated!
