    Swype's official forum is terrible

    Nuance (Dragon Dictate) bought Swype several years ago and does really poor maintenance. XDA finds solutions years before they do. This whole weird Channel thing here might be a big help. Gather Swype users. Swyped from my Verizon LG G4 using Forums for Android™.

    Help Lost video

    I can no longer play video in the YouTube app or xScope browser or my local news station app. I can play video in Chrome and the Vimeo app. This is weird. I've cleared caches, turned off AdAway, turned off Xposed, nothing seems to help. What did I do? Verizon rooted stock 4.2.2

    Help Is there a way to turn off system nags?

    I don't need a notification that my battery is fully charged. Is there any way to turn that notification off? I also don't need to be notified that I have turned off the lock screen.

    Help Insufficient memory

    My internal storage keeps dropping below 150 MB which keeps apps from installing or updating. This time when I cleared cache I only got to 155 MB free. Last time it was 174 MB free. What is eating my memory and how do I find it?

    4G signal discussion

    I live on the edge of a 4G signal area. Lately 4G has been flaky so I called Verizon. :/ On a 3G phone you just dial *228 but I've been told that fries the SIM card on a 4G phone. Cycling power didn't seem to help but cycling airplane mode seems to have.

    Can't create new topic in Application Reviews

    Not much else to say. In Tapatalk there isn't an option to create a new topic in the Application Reviews forum. Another user noticed this but I don't know how they tried to post.

    Stopping usage alerts

    Today I got a text AND an email from Verizon letting me know that I had used half my voice minutes. In the email I clicked on the link to change my preferences and... no choice to stop usage alerts.... I called Verizon and the rep couldn't find that option for a while but called me back when she...

    Scenes

    Good choice for a new thread. There's an article here: http://www.pocketables.com/2012/09/beginners-guide-to-tasker-part-3-scenes.html You need to create a task that invokes the scene.

    Turning tasks into apps

    This seems like an interesting feature but it looks like you can only put one task in the app. I tried it with a task I made here: http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?t=616678 It worked but it was hard to kill. :/

    Turning off mobile network in poor signal areas

    Verizon has random holes in their coverage here. I'm going to see if Tasker's 0-8 signal strength options will work. The interesting part will be turning the network back on.

    Root New root sticky

    The new root sticky needs some serious work. I've gotten some of the worst mistakes corrected. I suspect that most of the ROMs listed are obsolete. If you have any corrections or additions PM the OP. I sent him links to the Sense ROMs I follow but the newest MIUI and other non-Sense ROMs are...

    Dolphin browser

    Now that I have a phone with enough memory to install lots of apps, I have several launchers and browsers installed. The Colbert Report crashes xScope. The stock browser almost works. Dolphin plays full episodes. I'm going to have to use Dolphin some more. I had to turn off the gestures.

    Root 722 Radio

    I updated my phone to the 722 radio. I don't know if it helped but it didn't hurt. I think this is the radio/baseband that came with the 2.3.4 OTA. It's a brickable flash so check the MD5. I flashed it from Fastboot, no need for adb. If you don't know what I'm talking about, don't do it...
