    Ringke Slim Nexus 5 case

    That's my review video. I was a big fan of the Ringke Slim case for my Nexus 4. When I first got this case, I was pretty disappointed at the sharp edges at the seam. It was very uncomfortable to hold, so I took some 1000 then 2500 grit sandpaper to it. That fixed it right up, and the case feels...

    Finicky Chromecast & General Questions

    It sounds like your Chromecast is having WiFi reception issues. Have you tried connecting it with the HDMI extender to pull it away from the body of the TV a bit? I hear that can help. I don't have my Chromecast yet, but the cast button already pulls up in Play Music when I'm connected to...

    This would have been great to have on my wife's phone that was stolen a few weeks ago.

    New Market

    The new market showed up on my wife's Samsung Intercept. Not it matches the market on my CM6 Hero and even has the "Update All" button when multiple updates are present as well as the automatic update check box.

    how old s the droid?

    Nope, it came out last November, a month after the Hero came out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_Droid It was also the first Android phone to have a decent processor in it.

    Rooting after recent OTA update

    Maybe try a different USB cord? I know one of my cords will randomly disconnect from a slightly loose connection in the phone.

    Rooting after recent OTA update

    Are you running a 64 bit windows OS? If so, then it is a driver problem. It's been well documented for the 8 months the phone has been out. Windows always installs the wrong drivers on Vista and 7 64 bit. Go into Device Manager, and check to see the description of your phone there. You want it...

    Attn sprint hero owners!

    Yeah, it's true. To check, log into your sprint account, and there will be a Sprint Premier logo in the upper-right corner on your account page if you have qualified. By the way, my Premier logo just started showing up last month because it takes 6 months to qualify if you are a new Sprint...

    Sprint 2.1 leak

    Also, to make things quicker. Just enter all your contacts into your Google account using your computer. It's much faster then entering them all in on your phone. Since you have an Android phone, Google really is your best friend. Contacts, calenders, gmail, it all works flawlessly with Android...

    [HERO ROM] Gumbo ROM project - in Beta

    Yes. I verified that swap reads 0 in all categories when I run free. I know that there were definitely numbers in the swap category before I installed your kernel.

    [HERO ROM] Gumbo ROM project - in Beta

    Alright here's what I did. I did a clean wipe, and then installed Gumbo 1.5b ROM about a week ago. When Modaco released his custom kernel 1.2, I flashed the kernel only with no wipe. I had compcache working with that kernel, but was experiencing slowdown and poor battery life. Tonight, I...

    [HERO ROM] Gumbo ROM project - in Beta

    Well, thanks for the directions. It turns out I had actually read those directions a few days ago when I read this entire thread. I guess it just didn't click what they were talking about at the time because I hadn't installed the ROM yet and seen it firsthand. Oh, and in a light-hearted poke...

    [HERO ROM] Gumbo ROM project - in Beta

    One quick question. I installed Gumbo 1.5b and everything is working great. It absolutely flies. I was just wondering if there is an easy way to get rid of the little green star icon that shows you which of the 7 home screens you're on? On my phone, I feel it's a little distracting, and it's...
