    Help WiFi Dropping

    Has anyone else noticed that their Nexus 6P is constantly dropping WiFi? I've got a 2.4 GHz network at home, WPA2, and two Nexus 6Ps. Mine can't seem to stay on the network, but my wife's works fine. I also seem to have similar WiFi issues at work. If nothing else I'd love to grab some of...

    Help Hangouts (Voice) Phone Call Not Ringing Watch

    So my wife called my Google Voice number today, which after the latest Hangouts update no longer forwards to my "phone" but instead just rings as a Hangouts call via VoIP, so I don't use minutes. I noticed that my Moto360 did not turn on and alert me to the incoming phone call via Hangouts...

    Ting Nexus 5

    I've got two Nexus 5s on Ting, with two minor, annoying issues, and I was curious if anyone else is seeing these? 1) I live in Somerville, MA, about 3 miles from downtown Boston. Both of my phones keep selecting the wrong timezone, off by one hour, if set to automatically update the timezone...

    Help Screen Too Bright?

    So I've been using the "auto-brightness" screen option since I got my phone, but I've noticed that in a dark room (like when my alarm goes off in the morning), the screen is extremely bright. I've tried manually setting the screen to the dimmest setting, but the auto-brightness already had it...

    Disable Hardware Menu Button?

    Is there any way to disable the hardware menu button? I'm coming from a Galaxy Nexus with no "always on" menu button, so having to reach to the bottom of the phone for the menu/overflow is very confusing in commonly used apps like the Play Store.

    So they haven't extracted the radio files yet, but a tester got a new "official" VZW 4.2.2 build, which includes new radios. They're expecting to get the radio files extracted today. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173457 Anyone feeling adventurous today? :D

    [Verizon] Phone Keeps Turning Off

    I've got my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP JB3, with Franco nightlies (currently r273), and it seems to randomly turn itself off every so often. This started occurring with AOKP JB2, so I did a wipe & clean flash this morning with AOKP JB3, but just noticed my phone was off. I haven't noticed it...

    [Verizon] Full Device Encryption w/ Custom ROMs/Recovery

    So I'm not sure if this is a dumb question, but has any work been done on the topic of allowing a custom Recovery to access an encrypted device? At the moment, it appears that no work has been done on this, but it seems like it would be both useful, and should be possible, though I'm not really...

    [Verizon] TWRP Missing JB Compatible Mount Points

    I'm running XenonHD 6.0, with TWRP 2.2 as my recovery. When I try to install a new zip file via Goomanager, it fails, because TWRP can't find /storage/sdcard0, as that mount point does not exist under TWRP. I can see two solutions... 1) Goomanager is smart and translates mount points...

    Help Safe Mode on Stock, Unrooted Galaxy Nexus

    A friend has a stock, unrooted Galaxy Nexus. She's been happily using it for a while now, but just the other day she's started having random reboots, and occasionally the bottom left of the screen says "Safe Mode" in an overlay. I've never seen anything like this before, any ideas on what...

    [Verizon] Stuck on Fast Charge?

    My Galaxy Nexus seems to be stuck on Fast Charge. AOKP B40 & Franco Milestone 4. Trying to do a backup of everything to my PC to try out JB. Ideally would like to USB, since it's fastest, but if there's any viable OTA options (on a home network) that'd work too...

    [Verizon] [Tasker?] Automatically Unlocking Phone

    So I've got my SGN running AOKP (B29), and it's set with a PIN Lock. I've got a couple situations where having PIN lock is either not necessary, or even actively bad. 1) I use Pandora in the car, having to type in my PIN to change a song is bad, it's on par with texting while driving. 2) I...

    [Verizon] Advice on ROMs

    So this question is probably answered a million times, but I can't quickly find the answer in the wealth of information on this thread. I've got my Galaxy Nexus running the Stock 4.0.2 image, though it's unlocked/rooted. I'm interested in starting to try out some different ROMs, but I know...

    High Quality Car Charger?

    I'm looking for a high quality car charger for my new Galaxy Nexus. I've used several cheap ones with older Android phones, and I noticed that many car chargers generate an annoying noise when playing audio (Pandora, MP3s, Google Navigation) through an aux input to the car stereo. Does...
