So at 3:01 by me it will be the 28th by you. There's a chance I'll be up when the clock strikes then.
Well, I won't be up by then. After flying all night/day I'm fading quickly. The odd thing is, it was the 28th (my birthday for those of you wondering) when I took off from Japan and it was the 27th when I landed in LAX. So I get my birthday twice this year, but at my age, that's not a good thing....

Congratulations on the 1k! And, ummm, what are all the links about??
And happy birthday to Captain Ron, one more trip around the sun! Woo hoo! Mine was earlier in the week, and I am still celebrating, so the next one I'll hoist for you.

Your Welcome NCT, when I was walking last night, I was looking at the sunset and wishing I had my DSLR with me (thinking about our earlier pm). Knowing I could not make it back in the house and out with my equipment, Nexie came through nicely!

Thanks! Check the links out; I do big digest posts. I think people thank the post because I put work into it, but I get the feeling no one reads them.
And happy belated birthday, of course. Hope to see you around here more often, Early!

Hey , not true. I don't read every single one but I do click on all of them to see if it would interest me. I have learned lots from your RSRSS and always look forward to it

Happy Belated to you Early. Since I'm flying tonight I'll have to wait a day to hoist one back to you.

I have discovered the only thing I don't like about tapatalk....no colors for names. If jmartino hadn't said he was going gold I would not know it until I used a real browser.
@BabyBlues, CaptainRon, Copacetic, jmar: Okay, thanks guys, sorry for doubting.
Anyway, unrelated: I studied in Thessaloniki, Greece, for three months during my undergrad. Almost every morning, I would go around the corner to a little breakfast place and get a delicious custard pastry called bougatsa. Since getting back to Boston, I've looked all over for a place that would make it, but I've had no luck. Then I heard about a little Greek bakery just outside the city, called them, and lo and behold, they said they'd make it for me! I took the bus out there this morning, just got back and dug in - glad to say that it's almost as good as the authentic Greek product. Really takes me back!

I went gold a while back my dear.
No support for name colors! Bogus. The only thing I don't like about the phandroid app is that my messages tab just won't work!
Razor! Keep it up good sir...you are bay area Cali right?
Edit: The app isn't showing my emoticons at all! I winked after the first sentence and sad faced after the second paragraph!

My color hasn't changed yet, patiently waiting, as I did for the release of the Nexus
Hmmmm. Absolutely and sincerely sorry for the delay and confusion.
Phases is out on personal travel through tomorrow, but will try to tend to everything he can during this time. Please PM him as the others have suggested, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to cc me and also mention if you paid for the monthly or six month plan.
Your support is absolutely important to us and we really appreciate your patience this weekend.
Thanks for showing the love by going bold and gold!

As EM says, we're sorry it's a bit delayed due to the Admin's rl schedule. But once it's there, you'll be looking good, especially if you take your time and find yourself a nice avatar with some gold in it to set off your new gold user name.
A gold chip, perhaps?...

Hi all fellow Gnexers!
No, I'm not dead... well, not yet
Anyway: just wanted to chime in here and tell you that I looked over the Nexus Root Toolkit and I cannot see ANY reason why ANY person wanting to root can't. Its just that simple now.
In fact, you had me THIS CLOSE ----> -][- to rooting myself!
But you know what? I'm really perplexed this time as to what rooting and ROMming can give me that (a) I don't already have; and (b) is worth the voided warranty. The OG Droid was a no-brainer: it NEEDED rooting and ROMming. Nexus? IMHO it's a matter of WANT more than NEED. This phone does just about everything as it is!
The only argument that I could come up with is the ability to wifi tether, and I refuse to do that anyway because I simply will not risk Verizon busting on me and cancelling my very lucrative data plan / contract. So: unless something really slobberific comes up that requires root, I choose to stay stock on this one. You ROMmers have fun - I think I'm gonna sit this one out

Okay, back to your regular scheduled programming!
Glad to see ya Chief! Roms give me variety. And I have the ability to save a bit more battery with being rooted and rom'd / kernel'd. Other than that I can see your reasoning to stay stock as well

My one word answer is AdFree. When I was had my rent-a-razr, the ads were all i could see in apps. Being my only unrooted device, i had never had to look at ads before and i never could get used to them. No matter how small they are, they are intrusive and ruin the look and feel of even the most polished app.
My two word answer is battery life. The stock rom/kernel can't even come close to what is offered by the custom versions available now.

To anyone using built-in wifi tether on a ROM (I'm using Codename), does it take awhile for you to connect to the internet on the computer you are tethering to? For both wifi and USB tethering, it connects with limited access for awhile...then cycles a few times, then eventually connects. When it is connected, it stays connected so I can't complain too much, but it usually takes awhile to connect. Using Windows 7 too BTW...

I don know about it that way. I know the wifi tether I use is an almost instant connection
Is is a sin to be on this forum using a Macbook pro?
Looks like I am back to work tomorrow. Spent the last 10 days on vacation doing pretty much nothing although I did run a Mythbusters marathon, put ICS on my Xoom, some minor desktop computer tweaks, adding an SSD drive and installing windows 7 64bit. I attempted a ram upgrade as well only to have the two new sticks be bad :roll eyes: I spent a lot of time just doing nothing but watching TV
Still no Nexus hacking.
On a quick note, has anyone set up ADB on their Mac? And or RSD lite?
