    Nexus 4 gets better every day

    I have now had my Nexus 4 a little over two full weeks and it's initial appeal has only grown stronger with each day that passes. I had an iPhone 4 that I used heavily and replaced with the Nexus 4 device. Here are some of the things that will keep me using this device over anything else. 1...

    Putting music on nexus 4 (Mandatory credit card)

    I rooted my wife's phone, connected via USB to my MacBook Pro and mounted the phone as a drive. Once I did this I simply transferred her music to her phone that she wanted. Did not have to interact with Google Music at all.

    Nexus 4 - Definitely was worth the wait.

    I have read other posts that state the same and I am hopeful the battery will improve, it is definitely not a deal breaker for me even if it does not as the phone in all other ways is well worth all the goodness you get with it. Agreed, I notice the Play store now is showing 2-3 weeks shipping...

    Nexus 4 - Definitely was worth the wait.

    I an one of the people who waited for the Nexus 4 launch with great anticipation only to have my share of difficulty getting a device added to my wallet and then being cancelled three weeks later by an "unknown error" in the processing system. I admit I was more than a little frustrated. When...

    January 29th Order Tracking Thread

    Looks like Google decided to under-promise and over-deliver on this release. My order this time was shown to have a shipping label generated teh same day as the order was entered. I do have some conflicting information from UPS with an email from MyChoice stating delivery will be today between...

I also received a notification by email from UPS stating my device is scheduled to be deliverd "by...

    January 29th Order Tracking Thread

    Sales tax varies from state to state, Kentucky is 6% and my shipping was $13.99 for second day, which considering the UPS guy could literally walk out of their facility and walk it to my house is still higher than it should be IMHO. Hell, half my neighbors work at UPS, they could just bring it...

    Nexus 7 and iPhone 4 Tethering (Can Jellybeans and Apples Co-Exist?)

    You have a couple easy options. The first is to jailbreak your iPhone (easily done) and then download an app allowing your iPhone to be used as a mobile hotspot. I have used MyFi in the past which is available on Cydia. (google it) The app is $19.99 but as long as you control your data usage and...

    Nexus 7 use for purchases using NFC and Google Wallet

    The article talking about the iPhone 5S was actually taken from an edition of Business Insider and not Motley Fool. Here is a link to that article for reference. I think it is funny that Apple just released the 5 without NFC and now after Google releases the Nexus 4 Apple is already talking of...

    Nexus 7 use for purchases using NFC and Google Wallet

    Have to agree that if the iPhone ever comes out with NFC and a virtual wallet app then you will see rapid expansion of NFC payment options in many retail locations. I think that as we become more and more technology reliant as a culture that a virtual wallet in some form is on the horizon. I...

    Nexus 7 use for purchases using NFC and Google Wallet

    I have a quick question to determine if anyone and how many people use their Nexus 7 tablet for making in-store purchases using Google Wallet and the N7 NFC protocol. I have not really used mine as much as I thought I would initially partially due to the size of the tablet and not having it with...

    Lots of posts about running battery too low

    My battery has gone dead one time on my N7. I had a charger that went bad while the device was left on and the charger plugged in. When I went to take it off the charger to use I had nothing. I connected the USB cable into my Chromebook and still nothing when pressing the power button until...

    Nov 27 order, card charged, but not shipping for 1-2 weeks?

    I have had occasion to call the Google Play Support line on several occasions and have found all of the people I have spoken with to be very helpful to this point. Google does its shipping and distribution through an outsource agreement with UPS WorldPort based out of their hub located in...
