Lots of thanks to you both. Both very helpful. Just to be clear, I already have TWRP and am familiar with flashing, getting the right gapps package, etc. I just wanted to find either a packaged stock nexus rom (first choice), OR a clean AOSP as a second choice. So the video is helpful (or I...

Hi all, I have CM 10.2 on my n4 and have been having problems lately. I'd like to put an AOSP 4.4 on. However, I'm not in need of it being "pure stock" for any warranty issue, or resale, or whatever. I just want a clean 4.4 on it. Is there a way to flash 4.4 without going through all the return...

I know this thread is old, but I can't stand these either. The solution offered here works with SMS/MMS, but doesn't do anything to fix the problem in FB messenger, which is apparently just adopting the default icon pack. Yuck. Shouldn't there be a way to get in there and change this? Not to...

Please?

Maybe he means a dowgrade from the specs on the G2? I'm just not sure why you'd call the N4 a flop...

Hi all; Currently have a N4 running CM10.1.3. I'm very happy with the phone - and love having an unlocked device. This fall I've used sim cards in half a dozen countries without ever missing a step. I haven't minded the lack of LTE so much, but down the road I do want to upgrade to 4g/lte. My...

To ride the wave of innovation!

Coming from an iPhone, the difference between home screens and the app drawer can be a bit confusing, since the iPhone lumps these two together. In general, on an android phone, you use the home screens to organize the programs you actually use often (along with widgets, etc). The app drawer is...

Hi all; I've been using dashclock since AC told us about it awhile back. The lock screen widget works flawlessly (for me). I've also grown rather attached to the style of the home screen widget, which I have on my main screen. The problem is it routinely gets stuck. As in, its stuck _most of...

If your family and friends are already invested in the photostream ecosystem, then you're right - there's just no way around this problem. On the other hand you can turn on G+ syncing, which will do something similar with Google plus. The problem, as I'm sure you're well aware, is that...

Thanks - I'm using it now. I went for the free one month of use, and after about 5 minutes it became clear I'd happily pay $4. Very happy with Swiftkey. Well, as I pointed out in the original post, the native keyboard does not allow for simultaneous multiple languages...

Right - this is exactly why I want more than one language activated. When you use two languages in the same sentence it gets annoying to have to hit that globe. I'll give Switkey a try...

Z?rich, Switzerland How else am I supposed to get one? :)

Just checked on mine. I don't actually use Google's video player, but when I opened it up I was able to play episodes of Community and Parks and Rec, which I did not purchase through Google. They were both mp4 though - not avi or wmv. It wouldn't surprise me if the default player wouldn't play...

Looks like I finally have a reason to set up an NFC tag...
