    My Galaxy Z Fold 4 nightmare and why I'm skipping the Galaxy Z Fold 5

    I've had both Android and iPhones. My single experience with phone repair from an Apple standpoint was the iPhone 7. I had a failure on mine, took it to the Apple store, and the tech walked back out with a brand new phone as a replacement. I'm fortunate enough that there is an Apple store in...

    A few foxfi questions.

    Yes, foxfi (a.k.a. PDANet+) works like a champ with this phone. And if you are using the USB option to tether, battery usage isn't a biggie since you are charging while you are using your Note 2 as a data source.

    [Closed] Win a Google Play gift card from Poweramp & AC!

    Re: Win a $50 Google Play gift card from Poweramp & Android Centr Music inspires and uplifts me. And as for Poweramp, my favorite feature is the sweet equalizer. Poweramp makes music come alive on my GNex. Well worth the $5 asking price. My default player.

    Free Battery! Nexus only

    If I were you, I'd carefully look at my bill next month. I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't inadvertently agree to the shipping charge. If you didn't actually get charged, then kudos to you. I logged on to pay my bill tonight, and saw the message in the Info Center that MY Galaxy Nexus is...

    Can't transfer files to/from my Galaxy Nexus to/from my PC

    Thanks for the USB debugging tip. That did it for me. I was having the identical issue. Clicked that box and boom, the copy over took off.

    New Upgrade DESTROYS BATTERY LIFE

    I'm on the GNex now, but I still have my E4GT. I never had problems with the E4GT, so just curious what issues you had? The only reason I switched is because I wanted the experience of a pure Google phone with faster updates (realizing that being on Sprint means not fast enough updates). Even...

    OTA update to radio FG01

    Anyone know of any way to "force" the update?

    OTA software update starting 7/26.

    Any idea how many days a typical roll out like this normally takes? I too haven't received the update yet. I also don't care about Universal Search, but I am most definitely interested in any possible signal boost.

    Is it just my battery life that sucks?

    Let us know if the new phone fixes your issue, yellar.

    [ROM][FF18][July 01, 2012] DK_Liquid_Ice_v1.2.0_Stable

    It was actually solved just by the ICS upgrade. On the EL29, if I used my Airave, everything was fine at home. When I'd leave my neighborhood, I could no longer receive texts or calls. I could make texts and calls though. This occurred 20 miles west, and 100 miles north, two entirely...

    [ROM][FF18][July 01, 2012] DK_Liquid_Ice_v1.2.0_Stable

    I'm out of KC so LTE has been announced as scheduled for activation on the 15th of this month, so that part is tempting. However, I'm also in a WiMax area and honestly, I can count on one hand the times when WiMax was an option that really helped me out. At home, I stay on WiFi. Away from...

    [ROM][FF18][July 01, 2012] DK_Liquid_Ice_v1.2.0_Stable

    Well, evidently I have Rogue now since I'm on your rom. The funny thing is, I'm loving the look and feel of this rom, and thus far battery does seem to be extra good too. However, my wife is due for an upgrade, and she has offered to let me get the SGS3 and she'll take my E4GT. Had I not just...

    [ROM][FF18][July 01, 2012] DK_Liquid_Ice_v1.2.0_Stable

    I'm guessing the activation servers are having issues. After multiple total wipes and reinstalls, I just got it to activate again. PRL updated too. That just cost me several hours of sleep though. lol

    [ROM][FF18][July 01, 2012] DK_Liquid_Ice_v1.2.0_Stable

    Update PRL and update profile was not completing, giving me an error, so I did a ##72786# to wipe the profile and now I can't activate the device at all. Any suggestions? I've also done a NAND restore from when I first installed your rom.
