    Chromebook

    A touchscreen is not "necessary" but I find it useful. Having used tablets and having the benefit of switching back and forth from phone to Chromebook, I find that it makes the experience more uniform. I have two Chromebooks, one with touchscreen and one without. I constantly get annoyed when...

    Lost voice control/ mic not working since Android 6.01 update, how can I get it working?

    Re: Lost voice control/ mic not working since Android 6.01 update I'm having the same problem. I didn't associate it with the upgrade because I didn't see the upgrade hit, but that makes total sense. Now it's time to look for a solution...

    Google nexus 7 not turning on...

    I have seen this problem a couple of times. It seems that what you have to do is a hard reset, simultaneously holding the power, volume up and volume down. It might seem like nothing is going to happen: continue holding them until you get a pure black screen, at which point it reboots. That's...

    I've moved on and cut the chains of contracts!

    Don't second guess yourself. You found someone who paid what you wanted and you subsidized the purchase of your Nexus 4. I'd call that a win. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

    My Christmas Present to Myself

    I'm in Chicago and within the past month I've traded my Evo 4g LTE for a Sprint Galaxy Nexus, then decided to leave Sprint, sold the Nexus and bought a used Playstore GSM Galaxy Nexus from XDA Market. My trade was off of craigslist, as well as the sale of my Sprint Nexus. If you buy off of...

    Google Wallet Question for those that use it .

    That is correct. As stated above, you have full control over which card you use, just as if you were taking it out of your physical wallet. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

    Touch Screen Issues - Need Some Advice

    I had the touch screen issue and I thought it was software and after reading some of the threads I was afraid to trade one problem for another. It seemed to improve a bit after the second update. Something told me to exchange it because it really irritated me, though I love the tablet. I...

    Update - Gamestop says stock pulled delayed till Sept.

    Very strange, indeed. I bought mine at GS on the 3rd, called them on the 5th to tell them I wanted to exchange it (due to insensitive screen), they called Corporate (I was their only pre-order) and I picked up a new one yesterday. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

    Apps that don't work on the Nexus 7

    Amazon Mobile will work of you download it straight from Amazon, in your browser. Not sure what the difference is between that and the Market version, but it is fully functional. I made a purchase.

    Extra 10 dollars from Google

    The prepaid card portion of Google Wallet cannot be used online, as the card has no number or verification process. A rep from the Money Network (they issue the gift card) told me this. (They already have $30 of mine that I can't have access to, since Wallet is not working on my Evo LTE...)...

    Google Nexus 7 and Wifi question

    I have the E3200 and I love it. I didn't need all the capabilities of the E4200, so this occupies the sweet spot for me. I believe the E2500 (especially a refurbished from Amazon) is a great deal. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
