    Nexus 7 2013 Touch Screen Not Working

    I've had my Nexus 7 2013 since they came out and just recently the touch screen has slowly diminished to the point very few areas on the screen respond to touch. The bluetooth still works great so I've been using it with a mouse. Now it's getting phantom touches which make it completely unusable...

    [Closed] Win a free subscription to Carbonite

    It's my understanding they use duplication techniques where many people are backing up the same data, like mp3s, movies, etc. so the data only really sits on the servers once. The service works great for these sorts of files, I would love to win a subscription.

    Car Chargers? (official thread)

    Just a follow up on this, after extensive testing and multiple trips to various electronics stores, I finally found the perfect device. Kensington makes a Noise-Reducing AUX Audio Cable that does not require any adapters and is extremely well built. Here's a link to the product page: Newegg.com...

    Car Chargers? (official thread)

    I'm looking for a good car charger that I can use while playing music that doesn't have feedback through the audio. Right now the one I have from Radio Shack has a low whine in the background of the music when its plugged in.

    Music shuts of during the middle of a song!

    Same here with Streamfurious. This happens over wi-fi and 3G. In fact what's odd is certain streams sound great at 128 and others sound like a tin can. I've noticed I have more problems with the awful sounding streams. Run the same stream through the G1 and it sounds great.

    Why do we want wifi calling g so badly?

    I'm confused by this whole thing. What exactly is the difference between using this versus just enabling wi-fi on the phone? It was my understanding that even prior to this update when connected over wi-fi it would use the router as the tower, my G1 did this as well.

    Early upgrade on contract

    Just a follow up, I got to upgrade from my 18 month old G1 to a G2 during the pre-order. Apparently they are making exceptions for previous G1 owners that if you order now they give it to you for $250. This extends your contract for 2 years but you don't have to pay ETF on the old contract. The...

    Early upgrade on contract

    How does T-Mobile work if I want to upgrade my phone 16 months into a 24 month contract? Do I get any discount or do I have to pay full price?
