I got my OTA update yesterday afternoon. All seems to be working well...

Oh, Oh, Oh... Me too! Me too! lol... :)

On a brighter note, I had never flashed a nandroid so I didn't really know what to expect. Perfect restore down to every detail... 's like magic ya know!? lol

Hmmnnn... well that didn't go too well. When I flashed this it just seemed really sluggish... press on something and wait several seconds before it responds. I haven't seen anything like this since my original droid days. Used TWRP (full wipe)/ MyBackup Pro / Nova Prime... which is my standard...

Yesterday AOKP announced their JB-MR1 Build 4 which is 4.2.2... Looks like they have this ready for all builds now. I suppose I'll put this on my GNex and N7 first chance I have... probably this evening! [Release] JB-MR1 Build 4 | AOKP

Nope... seems to be completely dead. Tried two different computers... no recognition at all.

Hi folks Woke up this morning to a dead gnex... still on the charger... went through everything as far as battery pull, sim card pull, changed out oem charger, tried a different fully charged battery. Can't get the phone to active at all... not even into boot loader or recovery. Went through...

Downsides? The only real one that I see is you. And I don't mean you specifically but the user in general. Ask yourself this question... how will I react if I flash something and the wheels come off? Some pretty serious issue that renders the device inoperable? At least temporarily... Flash...

I ended up ordering a second one for a friend. Luckily I got that order placed before they closed the deal. Sometime this afternoon they pulled the deal down from the Amazon site.

I've been looking around for a deal on a Fire and considering a used one when I tripped over this deal on a refurbished Fire from Amazon. From what I can tell refurbs are normally $169. I ordered one... $139 and free shipping. Certified Refurbished. Package factory sealed. Ships with power...
