    Chromecast never stays discoverable

    So I've set My Chromecast up a number of times. It's worked beautifully and then becomes undiscoverable by every device I have, Nexus 10, Nexus 4... I can go into my router's settings and see that the Chromecast is connected to the network. I run the chromecast app and try to get it to connect...

    4.2 update rolling out!

    Just got mine updated. Definitely an enormous improvement so far. Chrome is running great. Tablet is much more responsive. Was just getting ready to craigslist it.

    4.2.2 Update

    Thanks Jaysus (not sure why Google couldn't help me with that one). Was able to factory reset.... No dice. System UI is still borked.

    4.2.2 Update

    Got the update last night, ran it and it borked my Nexus completely. On boot I get constant system ui has stopped messages. Boot to recovery and I get a "no command" error. Called Google and they had no suggestions other than to send me a new one. Kind of remarkable. Been screwing with Android...

    Questions about the Infinity

    I have both a nexus 7 and the infinity and the Android build on the infinity its pretty close to stock. Some off the things Asus has done are keepers, too. I actually prefer the "old" tablet layout to the unified look of 4.2. The infinity is the way to go if you want the keyboard dock and the...

    How's the N7 for games.?

    It's awesome for games. I also use it for Shadowgun Deadzone. I really like the 7 inch size for games, too. Easier to hold. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

    Nexus 7 laptop replacement. Advice please

    I've found that you can get a lot more fine with Android than you think. Office suite pro is great for doc creation. I've got Firefox set up for flash. And android even has keyboard shortcuts like alt tab to switch apps. The 7 inch screen is a little small, though. I'd look into the Asus...

    Nexus 7 Stylus?

    Like the stylus. It's great for swipe typing and general browsing without smudging up the screen. I use it all the time. Bought mine at Walmart. It's a Targus. I find it's also easier on the wrists if you've got as little carpal tunnel or tendinitis. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central...

    ASTRO File Manager and Dropbox anyone?

    That's a good recommendation. I'm going to try it. Thanks! Sent from my SGH-I897 using Android Central Forums

    ASTRO File Manager and Dropbox anyone?

    It's working with the Infinity T700? Or are you using the 201 (from your signature)? My suspicion is that it's a problem unique with my machine/configuration so I'm wondering if any other 700 users are suffering form the same. Thanks.

    Best Screen Protector

    Going to pile on with the no need for a screen protector crowd. The dock is great protection for traveling around and you paid extra for Gorilla Glass 2 for a reason. (At least I did.) Get a nice netbook case to carry it around and don't fill it with pennies or sand. You should be good.

    ASTRO File Manager and Dropbox anyone?

    I've been suffering with a bug and am wondering if it's just me, the Transformer or ASTRO. On the Transformer, ASTRO will not remember my Dropbox credentials. I've reported it to the developers have tried uninstalling and re-installing. No use. On the other hand, ASTRO works perfectly with...

    Should I purchase one of these?

    I agree with Bill2Reg, but to clarify, The Infinity does not have 4.2 . It's still on 4.1.1. 4.2 is rumored to be on the way soon.
