    Poor sound on new Chromecast

    Open question for anyone with a Chromcast. Is it common for the sound to get really staticy after about twenty minutes of continuous use? Mine is less than a month old, and has done this since day one. It was a gift to my family from an out of state friend, so I'm hoping it doesn't need to be...

    Root [Rom] BACKfire Alpha 0.2

    Bummed out by the lack of development for the CDMA Wildfire S, I took matters into my own hands. I decided to port Jerryscript's incredible Optimus V rom, BACKside, to the Wildfire S. I used Simonsimon34's SStock for the base. The result is BACKfire. This is very much an alpha build, it has...

    Root Looking for CM7 for a510c

    So I've noticed the a510c (Virgin Mobile variant of the Wildfire S) seems to be getting the short end of the stick. The only roms for it are based on Sense, which I don't much care for. There are CM7 builds for the a510e (GSM variant) but nothing for the c. I've tried using one of the GSM builds...

    Those little moments that makes us human. We all have them, no matter who or where you are. Examples: Look at your watch, still don't know what time it is. Walk into a room, have no idea why you went in there.

    Best Twitter app?

    I've managed to avoid Twitter since it's launch, but now I have a need for it. I'm looking for opinions on the plethora of apps for it. What's good? What's bad? Why do you feel that way? My phone is rooted and the stock Twitter app has been gone for over a year. It annoyed me because it never...

    Why I'm not green....

    Those who know me will notice I am no longer a guide. What gives? Did I break a rule? :questionmark: Did I follow too much of Yeahha's advice? :evil: Did I do bad things to the boss's daughter? :eek: No. I voluntarily stepped down. I had bitten off far more than I could chew. Around the same...

    Science made Stupid

    Explain the statement of the poster above you. Do so scientifically, incorrectly, and as stupidly as you can. The worse your explanation, the better. Then make your own statement for the next player to explain. Example: (statement)The sky is blue. (Explanation) It had been red, but then saw...

    Root [Theme] Peanut's Lion

    Most of the regulars here know Peanut. That's him in my lap. Meet Peanut's best friend, Lion. I've been inspired by my son, his love for a stuffy, and the votes for a pastel theme to create Peanut's Lion, a BACKside theme built against 0409. I have no idea if the inspiration of this theme...

    The worst flavor of frozen custard

    Down the road from my house is a Culver's Frozen Custard, and they have a scrolling LED sign that's supposed to be the flavor of the day (at least that's what's painted above the LED display.) The fun comes from the management's decision to use the sign to advertise lunch specials instead. BBQ...

    SMS outage in Michigan

    Has anyone else in Michigan been able to text today? I have three phones and can't text anything. My OV, my wife's Wildlife S, and a simple Tracfone. Seems to me that because it's different carriers that it might be a widespread problem.
