    Can't restore a backup for Nova Launcher

    SOLVED: I created another backup and determined it's location by searching for the word "backup" with File Manager. Moved my preferred backup file there and boom good to go! Cheers

    Can't restore a backup for Nova Launcher

    Just to clarify, before I rooted my phone, I emailed the Nova backup file to myself. Now I need to figure out what location to put the backup file on the rooted phone so that Nova can find it Going to email nova if I can find their support address, assuming they have one. Thanks

    Can't restore a backup for Nova Launcher

    I decided this morning to root my phone and am now realizing that Nova Launcher apparantly doesn't allow you to choose the location of your backup file if you want to restore it... I keep reading that the default location where the backup file needs to be is on an SD card, how could Nova have...

    Google Play Music starts automatically and only occasionally when I use Google Voice through with BT

    This has happened about 10 times total now so it's really only once every 20 times it seems to me, but I will hold the button any of my bluetooth devices to activate Google Voice commands, and before I even say what I want to do, Google Play Music fires up, and starts playing the track I was...

    Nexus 5: official ac charger worth it?

    Re: new nexus official ac charger I would be curious to hear everyone's opinion on the possibility of this charger charging faster than the stock N5 charger. My understanding from other threads was that the phone will not accept more charging amps than it's been designed to, therefore can...

    Nexus 5: What apps/services do you disable?

    Thanks for starting this thread, I have successfully made my phone even tidier! According to Clean Master my memory was usually about 50-60% used, after disabling all the apps I don't use, Clean Master reported 30% memory used, that is a huge improvement! Thanks

    Can't transfer files (mp3's) to phone via Windows 8 file explorer anymore!

    Update: Not working again, investigated further and in fact when I look at the "Other Devices" in Windows 8 Device Manager, it says the Nexus 5 is not connected. If I go to Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Devices and Printers, the Nexus 5 is shown under Devices.

    Can't transfer files (mp3's) to phone via Windows 8 file explorer anymore!

    Thanks I got it! In Windows 8 the folders in Device Manager are slightly different, And the Other folder was hidden by default for me. Once I found the Nexus 5 in there, there were actually 2 of them listed which probably was causing some confusion! I uninstalled one of them and updated the...

    This is bizarre, everything was fine until this morning, not sure what's going on but the phone still comes up in Windows 8 file explorer, however as soon as I click the Internal Storage directory, file explorer stalls as the green progress bar slowly crawls along and eventually times out. The...
