    Jelly Bean 4.2 Camera

    Leave the zip that contains the apks, two I believe, and libraries alone (meaning, don't unzip). Boot into recovery to install that zip, reboot, and Viola! SuD Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Android Central Forums

    Jelly Bean 4.2 Camera

    Nothing special to do. After flashing through recovery, reboot. If you're like me, you'll now have a new camera and gallery icon. That means you will have two of each. One each old, one each new. Use the new, experiment and have fun. SuD Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Android Central Forums

    Jelly Bean 4.2 Camera

    Thanks for all the hard work, to those that contributed, and for helping me lose hours of work today. Flashed the zip with apk and 3 libs. When last apk was released, I moved it, changed permissions, rebooted, and all is working as stated... including the viewer. This was a great Wednesday...

    Resale value of the Galaxy S3 in a few months???

    If you're going to wait, consider waiting until Black Friday. That's when places like Sam's Club offer relatively good phones (at the time of the deal) for a buck. Last year, for Verizon, it was the Charge, and the year before that was the Fascinate. The problem? You're getting a subsidized...

    Looking for texting over WiFi.

    Google Voice is a great option. I use it on my phone, and my wife uses it on her hacked Nook Color. Also consider Skype. If you consider using TextFree from Pinger. Just make sure that you use it. If you don't use it for 30 days, they reassign the phone number they give you and you'll have to...

    Will Verizon replace this phone with another phone?

    I hope that the Nexus works out for you. I just got off the phone with the T2 rep, and they offered me a Bionic, Rezound orSpectrum. She wasn't sure that she could offer me a Nexus, but then again, I didn't push it. I wasn't expecting to be offered a phone, so I can't be too torqued about what...

    Verizon Remote Diagnostics (VRD) application with latest update

    This is the difference between open and closed development. I guess whats more insidious is that rooted phones with these types of apps don't need the user's permission to allow someone to remote in or to notify you if someone is rutting around your rooted/custom rommed phone and sd card. Just...

    Verizon Remote Diagnostics (VRD) application with latest update

    According to Verizon's Tier 2 support, they can detect if your phone is rooted when you allow them to remotely access the phone. Basically, they have to initiate the process, you give them permission and enter a password they give you which allows them to connect for that session. Whenever they...

    Record Calls

    If memory serves me right, here in Ohio, that you only need to have one party with knowledge of the recording, and if that's me, then that's the one party. Funny how people around me know that I'm always tinkering with ways to show them how their privacy can be invaded, so they are careful to...

    New Droid Charge Update

    Sorry about not replying sooner, but my wife went into labor a week and a half early. Been trying to kick my 2yo into shape before I go back to work. Needless to say, its the other way around. Nonetheless, its like pouring water into a funnel... you need proper flow control if you want all off...
