A local repair shop replaced the screen on my beloved G2. The screen peeled up the next day so I took it back under the 30 day warranty. The shop called and told me it is stuck in a boot loop. They said they can only get it to boot in Safe Mode (first I've heard of it). The shop is insisting...

Hello AC, I'm loving the screen size of my LG G2 that I just bought. However, there is one thing about my wife's Moto G that I love: the camera app. I don't care about fancy photo features. The buttonless shutter is the most useful thing ever to me. I want to focus on my kids in my shot, not...

I have my original Nexus 7 (no 3G) connected to WiFi while at work. My old phone has WiFi issues and a data-less prepaid plan (can't beat $16/mo). I'd like my phone to connect to my Nexus 7 over Bluetooth and use the WiFi connection on the tablet. There's no option in my Nexus 7's settings to...

Thanks for the suggestion. Sadly, that option is available on my phone. :(

OK, here's the deal. I'm running an old Android 2.3 Gingerbread device (Motorola MB632) on a prepaid carrier. I'm floating around services and typically only have 50MB to 150MB a month. On Windows, there's an app called Zone Alarm (I think) that basically throws a popup asking permission...

So are you giving away the original Nexus 7 or the new N7?

Hello everyone, I have an old phone running Gingerbread. Something has been placing ads in my notification bar and adding advertising icons to my home screen. This behavior completely offends me. I'll find an alternative app for the functionality. While I don't mind ads being displayed in an...

Hello AC Community, I bought an unlocked Motorola Pro+ (MB632) running Gingerbreak and I'm loving it on AT&T. There's only one minor thing that's bothering me. Every time I download an app from the Play Store, it plays the notification tone. This is totally unnecessary and I'd like to turn off...

I'm going to be giving a 5-minute speech in a couple weeks. What I'm looking for is an app that I can install on my phone to help me keep time. I'd like it to short-vibrate each minute so I have awareness of how far I'm in and how much time remains. Ideally, it would short-vibrate once after the...

Make the turn WiFi off action trigger when you disconnect from your home WiFi network by name. That should take care of it.

I haven't bought Action Launcher yet (no free version) but it interests me. I'm a bit of an interface junkie and have downloaded every free version I can find to check them out. I've primarily used Go Launcher on my devices, most because I could hide apps in the drawer but virtually every...

Hey AC Community, I'm a webOS refugee who finally made the leap to Android. I need a decent podcast app along the lines of drPodder. I've tried quite a few apps from the Market Play Store and haven't found a good one so far. Either it doesn't have the features I need or (mostly) the interface...

Hey AC, I'm a webOS refugee who finally bit the bullet with the Samsung Galaxy Chat. I'm looking for a good podcast app to rival Dr Podder. I've tried many on the market. Either they don't have the features I need or the UI is ugly. Here are my requirements. * Simple, clean, intuitive UI. *...

Hey AC Community, This has been bugging me. If anyone will come up with a solution for me, and it's this community. Here goes... I see no point in a lock screen for my Nexus 7. It's not like I'm going to press buttons accidentally in my pocket. I disabled it with an app called No Lock...

Re: Odp: Your system is up to date Thanks. I actually have the update now. I knew I'd get it. I this post was pretty for humor. :)
