    Can you text from your computer with Android?

    ^Thanks for the welcome and the quick response. I did see Mighty Text as an option. Just to be clear though, Google does not have their own software to do this? MightyText seems like a well designed app from what I can tell, and this may sound comical but I kind of don't feel comfortable using...

    Camera Flash Randomly Not Working

    After a restart the flash still did not work, however it did work on my flashlight widget. Even though no one encountered this problem, I thought I'd leave the solution that worked for me in case any people are Googling to get here: The support tech had me reset the phone by taking the battery...

    Camera Flash Randomly Not Working

    Just noticed that my camera flash just randomly stopped working. Anyone else getting this? My flashlight app does not work either but for some reason the flash in instagram works......

    Free Mobile Hotspot

    It's common sense. The feature has no software on Sprint's side to tell if you're using it or not. As far as Sprint is concerned it's just data (at the moment). Whether they decide to push an update or not to actually track this is on them. They may or may not. In the meantime though "WHEEEEEE!".

    Battery life for sprint galaxy nexus

    Battery life has exceeded my expectations. I play some Scramble With Friends, read/reply to several emails a day, text a lot and minor web browsing. This has resulted in about 18 hours of battery life. Make sure you turn NFC off if you are not using it. I have not used Google Wallet yet, so...

    FYI Sprint added the additional $40.00 today

    Do you need to purchase something to get the $40?

    Free Mobile Hotspot

    I had a Blackberry and EVO before the Nexus on Sprint. Both of those phones would not let me enable the feature without getting a plan from Sprint. If Sprint does not have anything to do with the operating system of this phone, I don't see how they could charge me for it. Let alone charge me...

    Free Mobile Hotspot

    I've had my Nexus on Sprint for a week now and I just decided to turn the mobile hotspot on. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Sprint has not disabled this and it is free. Thought I'd give you guys a heads up because this is a feature I gladly welcomed and I had not seen anyone talking...

    Sprint hiking insurance on LTE devices!

    Would be dumb. Defeats the entire point of insurance.

    Is the Galaxy Nexus still worth it?

    I pre-ordered it. Look, if you keep waiting for the next better spec'ed phone, then you'll never have a new phone. Goes for anything in technology. The EVO 4G LTE will be more powerful, but realistically I'm not going to be doing anything on this phone that the dual core 1.2 ghz can't handle...

    Why the Spec Bump Rumor's May Be True

    Unfortunately this video from Sprint themselves on their Youtube confirms the specs are the same as the Verizon version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aD0Tr5fnPs

    Predictions: When will the Sprint GNex be released?

    I really doubt the general public looks at the specs of these phones, let alone understands them. They're going to price this phone at the highest price they think they can get people to pay for it. That's how life/business works.

    An Open Letter to HTC and Sprint: How About a Compromise?

    I'm kind of on the same boat. Kind of waiting for the Galaxy Nexus, but at the same time we still haven't heard anything about the GS3 which may make all these phones look terrible.

    An Open Letter to HTC and Sprint: How About a Compromise?

    How is it any different than someone who thinks the phone is perfect but never physically seen or held the phone? Not different at all, and there's nothing wrong or "girly" about caring how your products look. I think most of us are over the fact that they chose this design, at least I am...

    Predictions: When will the Sprint GNex be released?

    The Nexus S was announced on April 26th, 2011 and released May 8th, 2011. (12 days) Not sure where you got 2 weeks, but I don't think there's some formular that they're constantly using. If the release date is April 22nd, then yeah it should be soon, but 2 weeks would have been yesterday...
