    Razr vs GN question

    Did you do a speed test dman? Because I will have 1 or 2 bars around my area because its in the boonies but I still get 11-15 mbps download and 1-6 mbps upload. It seems like the the signal isn't as "strong" as other phones but the quality of it, for me at least, is just as good because I did a...

    So you've flashed your ROM...now what?

    I usually customize my phone via settings and what not, especially with Codename ROM because the custom settings are great. I would flash imoseyn's Minimalist kernel then basically your done. Set up your home screens and what not. Maybe play around with voltages to get the best stability and...

    Streaming Movies

    I use aVia which even has an app for most tablets and smartphones on Android. I can stream from my Win7 laptop, my Galaxy Nexus, ASUS TF and my Sony Blu-ray GTV. Its great to set up a full DLNA network at your house plus it is free. You don't need it for the computer but if you want to stream to...

    [ROM][AOSP][4.0.3] Codename Android 1.5.5 [Full Open Source]

    Re: Need help please..... Did you wipe data, cache and dalvik cache then format /system? If not then this is why you went to a bootloop. People using ROM Manager seem to get bootloops more frequently then people who just download the file from a website and flash it themselves.

    If you want to get the latest version of Codename the "dev" frequents a certain wiki website about root.

    Best ROM for GNex?

    I'm just wondering what you think is too much in Codename? I'm just interested because I love how much is included. Just shows how great this big development community is and how much we all appreciate them because what one person thinks is good amount of features others think is too many features.

    Sad battery life

    If you are near WiFi then keep it on all day but if you know you'll be away from it for like an hour or longer I'd turn it off because it uses less battery than the cell radios but obviously is draining when it is constantly scanning. Try opening up the camera app and kill it because the sensor...

    Best ROM for GNex?

    I definitely love Codename also and I have tried a couple different ROMs such as Tranquil, GummyNex, Liquid and AXI0M. I liked Liquid a lot but its not quite a daily driver but I would definitely consider Codename a daily driver as of the latest version.

    [ROM][AOSP][4.0.3] Codename Android 1.5.5 [Full Open Source]

    re: [ROM][AOSP][4.0.3] Codename Android 1.1.1 [Full Open Source] I just want to say I have tried several ROMs so far and to me this is definitely the most balanced one when its combined with imoseyon's Minimalist kernel. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good ROM for a...

    So, I exchanged my Nexus...

    I feel really bad for the people that are having all these problems. My Nexus and my girlfriends Nexus have been nothing short of spectacular for both of us coming from a Droid X(me) and a BB Storm2(g/f). They were both stock for maybe 3 weeks and were fine then but I started getting antsy and...

I bought her the Galaxy Nexus for Christmas and it wouldn't work on it and their tech support knows nothing but it worked on my phone with was unlocked, rooted and running a...

    ICS ROM's are different

    I figured that was the case I just didn't know if there was something else I didn't know or something. I am very interested to see the more themed or customized ROM's once they come out. MIUI looks pretty interesting so I can only imagine other ones.

    ICS ROM's are different

    This may be stupid of me but it seems like all previous ROM's such as the 2.x ROM's seemed much more customized and what not than the few that are out. It could just be that it's only been a few weeks since everything came out so that could be a big reason but Honeycomb 3.x seems similar to...
