    Hey everybody, I don't know if you've seen anything about Chameleon, but it's pretty dang cool. It's like Hubs on steroids, but it does all the heavy lifting for you. Check out their Kickstarter page here: Chameleon - A Better Home Screen for your Android Tablet by Gabor Vida - Teknision...

    Root Method for Rooting the Aviator

    I haven't tried it, but there seems to be a root method for the Aviator swirling around the interweb. If you're braver than I am, give it a go and report back! Root Samsung Galaxy S Aviator

    Onskreen Cornerstone-equipped ROMs available on XDA!

    I just thought I would drop by to say that there are two ROMs running Cornerstone up on XDA. I'm not sure how the mods view linking to other forums, so I'll let you look it up yourself, but I will say that Jermaine151's AOKP ROM is working great for me right now. I also tried the EOS with...

    OTA Update?

    Hey everybody, has anyone ran an OTA update on the Aviator? I got a notification on mine that there is an update, but I'm out of town and roaming, so it won't let me run the update until I'm back in the US Cellular network. Has anyone seen any sort of a changelog or anything on the update?

    Who's got one?

    Well, somebody had to kick off the Aviator forums, and I figured it might as well be me. Who else has picked up the Aviator? I know it just came out, but according to two different USCC reps that I talked to, they have been flying off the shelves. What are your thoughts on the phone? The...

    Google Music improvement suggestions

    It seems to me like Google is pretty good about listening to consumer's demands when it comes to their products, so I thought I would throw out a few ideas for things that Google should change on the Music app for Android. #1: PLEASE give us a good EQ with 10 or more bands. Even 8 would be...

    Root Root is possible from stock GB!

    Hey everybody, I found a way (Anyone how to root the mesmerize with gingerbread? - xda-developers) to root the stock GB 2.3.4 ROM without flashing a pre-rooted ROM via Odin. You DO have to flash CWM first, but after that, you just have to open the file in the link in CWM. I tried it last night...

    Help G-Sensor stopped working

    I noticed yesterday that my phone won't go into landscape mode. Not for typing, not for Launcher Pro, not for anything that isn't in landscape by default. I have the "Auto Rotate" box clicked, and I have Auto Rotate selected in LP. I even downloaded AndroSensor, and it doesn't register anything...

    Root Honeycomb for the 1.1 Bootloader!

    Hey everybody, I just thought I would share the news: Someone over on XDA has forked the Bottle of Smoke ROM (based on the ASUS version of HC) over to the 1.1 bootloader, which means those of us with older G-Tabs can easily flash over to HC via ClockworkMod. Here's the link with instructions...

    Root Is it possible to root from 2.2 or do I have to reset to 2.1?

    I have been trying to get my Mez rooted for a while now, with no luck whatsoever. I did a bit of researching, and it seems that the version of Froyo that we have is actually 2.2.1, which is incompatible with Z4Root and Super One Click. Are there any simple ways of rooting 2.2.1, or am I stuck...

    Root Having problems rooting my Mez...

    I've been wanting to root my Mesmerize, but I'm running into snags. I tried Z4Root, but it just seems to freeze up part way through the process, and Super One Click doesn't work on my computer, although I am not sure why not. Are there any other options that I haven't considered yet?

    Help Strange happenings with my G-Tablet...

    This weekend, I booted up my G-Tablet (Running VEGAn 5.1.1 and Clemsyn's OC kernel; I power it off at night and when I won't be using it for more than a few hours), and much to my chagrin, Launcher Pro had somehow logged me out and reset to defaults. All my settings were gone, along with all my...
