    Help Screen Saver? WTF?

    Just got an upgrade from my Nexus to an S3, loaded it up with apps, and not sure which is causing the problem but apparently the S3 (VZW) goes into some strange sort of screen-saver mode, where purple and/or blue square pixels appear (in the top left corner of the screen) after the device times...

    Grass Live Wallpaper

    Pardon the possibly stupid question: what happened to the Grass live wallpaper on the Nexus? Haven't rooted yet and I've been looking for it. Is it gone? Thanks in advance all.

    Password Safe w/o SD Card

    I've been using KeePass for as long as I can remember, and it's workable -- it doesn't sync and it doesn't type in passwords for me. The former is sort of an issue but the latter doesn't interest me a'tall. Problem is that now without a removable SD card it's a lot more involved to keep the...

    Two Days Later...

    So now that all the smoke has cleared, I'm pretty glad I pulled the trigger. For those of you who were pushing me to go forward despite my few concerns about the Nexus (no card slot, the 5MP camera) I am glad I went ahead and nabbed a Nexus. There are definitely some issues but none that I...

    NYC Corporate Stores Selling Tomorrow

    Break out your Depends -- just confirmed VZW corporate stores will be selling the Nexus tomorrow. I didn't bother asking about price, quantity or anything else -- but it appears that tomorrow the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse do indeed visit this little blue marble known as Earth. FYI: I...

    If Not The Nexus, Then...

    Okay, so we all know the Nexus WILL come out at some point. It could come out the 15th, it could come out the 31st, or it could come out sometime in February. For me, I'm not too-too happy about the missing SD slot, the lack of gorilla glass, or the sufficient hardware. So if the four horsemen...

    Nexus Buy & Return Question

    So despite all the waiting and wanting and frustration and anticipation, I'm not 100% sure I will keep the Nexus. My Droid X is about to go tits up, so I kinda NEED to get a new phone but not necessarily sure if the Nexus is the ideal candidate. Here's the issue: the store from which I'm going...

    The Delay Mystery

    Being that we've all been salivating over the impending Nexus release for what seems like (or what actually has been) months, it's pretty clear Verizon isn't just jerking us around over marketing issues. They knew about the timing of the release of the Bionic, they knew about the timing of the...

    ICS and No Hardware Buttons

    Quickie question -- perhaps a mighty dumb one -- but being that I'm still among the legions awaiting the Nexus/Prime, how will ICS (especially on the Nexus, sans hardware buttons) cope with older apps that require buttons? I'm assuming any relevant buttons will appear below, but if an app has...

    Help Stupid (Probably) Dialer Question & Default Numbers

    Lots of my contacts -- especially my "favorite" contacts -- have multiple phone #'s, which is pretty typical. So it's a nice feature in the dialer that lets you select a specific number -- home, office, mobile, etc. -- to dial every time you pull up the favorites tab within the dialer screen. I...

    Help Keyboard/Punctuation AutoCorrect Issue

    On occasion, I'll be typing (either vertical or horizontal orientation) and I'll hit the punctuation button (not a long-press on the period) to type a dash and the damn keyboard removes the space I typed after the word. So if I wanted to write the following sentence I'd have to hit delete "I...

    Help Silent Boot Animation?

    I get the animated Droid X boot but no sound -- I could have sworn I'd heard "Droid" the first few times I booted up my phone. Now -- nothing. Am I just imagining things?

    GoogleTalk

    My main Google account (the default one that I used to fire up my phone) is my business account but I use a different account for GoogleTalk. Any way to get the handset to not sign me into my biz account every time I launch it and allow me to use my secondary gmail account? I've tried disabling...

    Gmail App issues

    I started a thread that wound up in the Droid X Troubleshooting forum, but I think this is an Android problem, not a Droid X problem... I'm having read receipt issues with the stock Gmail app (it won't let me send them and it auto-sends them to people who request them of me, without giving me...

    Help Google/Gmail (Droid X) Issues

    Doubt this is Droid X-specific, but three relatively serious issues with the GMail app on the X: 1) No read receipt capability for sent mail; 2) No Mark All Read (have to read each email individually); 3) Delays in getting mail (sometimes half-hour, sometimes two hours). Am I wrong and are...
