    Have you used the "OK Google" command much on your Nexus 5

    I've used it a few times for the novelty aspect of it however whenever I say "Navigate to work" it just google searches for the phrase "Navigate to work". Works fine with everything else, even "Navigate to home" works fine but for some reason it never works for my work despite the fact that my...

    'I've Ordered a Nexus 5' Thread! (Order & Shipping Discussion)

    That's so odd. I placed my order at 4:00pm on the 31st and its still pending saying it will leave the warehouse by the 8th. Almost makes me wonder if I place an order now with the "3-4 weeks" wait which one will ship first.

    "Exchange Services" is killing my battery!

    I changed the sync setting to the last 3 days and it seems to have worked for now. Not an ideal solution but a solution none the less. Thanks

    "Exchange Services" is killing my battery!

    I'm gonna take a guess and assume this isn't normal. Lately Exchange services has been completely tanking my battery life. I notice it only seems to happen when I am at work (or at least that's when I notice it). I have 2 Hotmail accounts set to sync every 15 minutes other than that I don't have...

    GrooVe IP - Google Voice VoIP

    I started using GrooVe IP and while I do like it a lot (especially with the $30 tmobile unlimited plan) I find that the call quality is what I can only describe as "tinny" sounding. Is this just how voices sound when calling through GrooVe IP or is there something I can change to help it Sent...

    Reading text messages aloud?

    Lol that's what happened to me too which is why I would rather not use it if TalkBack was required. Thanks for the app suggestions

    Reading text messages aloud?

    I do have text to speech turned on but still nothing. If it requires talk back to be on too that sucks cause I find that highly annoying. I'm sure it's great if you're blind but not so much if you aren't Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Android Central Forums

    Reading text messages aloud?

    I've looked all over the settings options and can't find anything to have my incoming text messages read. Am I missing it or is it just not there? Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Android Central Forums

    Thoughts from a Microsoft fan

    Yeah I did install the Facebook app and noticed I can upload photos but I didn't see much else that could be done without the app. I don't know if you've used WP before but their integration is a bit different. You pretty much don't need to load the app for anything. You can see your contacts...

    Thoughts from a Microsoft fan

    I am in pretty much the same boat as the OP. My gf got an Android phone and since she likes to play those Zynga games which are (currently) missing from the WP marketplace it gave me a perfect excuse to try out Android. I picked up a Galaxy Nexus and must admit I do like it a lot. Coming from...
