    Easy Root for Bionic Stock 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)

    Worked wonderfully for me. I've set up virtual appliances before and I fully appreciate the work and detail that went into this (setting networking so that external devices can connect to the VM, capturing the USB device, etc) so thanks. I can't imagine this can be any easier unless you...

    Car dock on amazon - price drop

    I've been looking for a good deal for the bionic car dock for a while, and yesterday I noticed that the price on amazon dropped from $59 and change to $41.75, no tax, free shipping, so I pulled the trigger. Link. If you got in on the $10 amazon gift card for $5 deal last week, it makes this...

    Getting duplicates of text messages

    I only had this when I received messages on my google voice number, and I had the option to notify me via SMS when a new message was received. So basically one message was the text message itself from google voice, and the other was the SMS notification. If that's the case, you should go to...

    The Official I Got My Bionic Thread

    Got mine yesterday afternoon, overnight shipped from letstalk.com ($219 keeping unlimited data). It's replacing my OG D1 which I was very attached to but had developed many problems - most notable a flakey digitizer that gave me fits and made it very difficult to do even the most basic tasks...

    Bionic prices/deals

    I just posted details of this on a separate thread (sorry should have put it all here... mods maybe you can move/attach). Letstalk.com has bionic for $199 for upgrade, no tax, free overnight shipping. If you want to keep your existing unlimited data plan it's $20 more. Somehow this makes me...

    letstalk deal

    I've been monitoring these threads anxiously waiting to pull the trigger... like many others, my OG D1 is on its last legs. I was going to drive to costco for the bundle package this morning, but came across this which I think is better: letstalk.com - price for new line: $199 OR if you're...
