    Help Will the US Nexus 5 work internationally?

    More specifically, will I be able to make calls internationally? From what I've read, I'll be able to use LTE here in the States, but internationally I'd be stuck with non-LTE speeds? I'm still a little confused with the lingo saying that the Nexus 5 is unlocked. Does this mean region...

    [Verizon] Will you buy the Nexus 5?

    Hey everyone, it's been awhile since I've been here, and still haven't made the jump to 4.3 yet, but I had a question for everyone (and I can't figure out how to make a poll :o ) So I'm assuming most people that have the Verizon GNex was perturbed when we didn't get the N4, so my question is...

    [Verizon] Is it possible to force Play Store auto-restore?

    I feel like when changing versions (Android 4.0.x to 4.1.x to 4.2.x) doing a full clean install with Play Store restore is the best way to go, but I just went from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2 and Play Store restore isn't working. Any idea if it's possible to force it? Or if not, is there any easier way to...

    [Verizon] WiFi Connectivity Issues

    Hey all, So I'm currently running Xenon 1.5 (4.2.1) paired with Lean Kernel 5.6, but this is an issues I've had on all 4.2.1 ROMs that I've tried. It seems as though my phone doesn't want to stay connected to WiFi even though it has a strong connection. This is the order of things: WiFi on and...

    [Verizon] Nexus boot animation?

    Is anyone else having issues when installing a custom boot animation where the animation freezes a few times? I can't seem to shake it no matter what animation I'm using. I'm using animations found in the ROM Toolbox app, btw

    Help I think my vibration motor just broke

    Hey all. I have a Verizon GNex and here's a little back story. I always turn data, wifi, everything off when I go to sleep. However today I woke up and turned it all back on and got a bunch of notifications at once (more than usual) and the vibration was really strong. At first I thought nothing...

    Help Has 4.1.2 slowed anyone's Nexus down?

    I'm having some lag issues ever since I received the OTA 4.1.2 update. I'm so used to the "butter" but now it seems like it hangs whenever I press the Back button (stays glowing for a couple seconds before it registers) and even opening and closing apps has some lag issues. At first I thought...

    My girlfriend is having an issue where she has a text message thread of over 6000 text messages, but she just tried deleting the thread and it froze her messaging app and proceeded to crash it. Whenever she tries to do that the same thing happens. She's completely stock and she tried installing...

    Build JRO03S?

    So I just got a new a job about a month ago and after seeing how much my mom loved my first toy with it, the Nexus 7, I decided that it would be a nice little surprise gift to get her as well. So I was lucky enough to buy it on Sunday to get the $25 Google Play credit, and here I am setting it...

    Help Does anyone else's screen become unresponsive?

    So I've had my Nexus for 5 days and I've come to notice that the longer my screen is on, the less responsive it becomes. It leads to me having to either start mashing on the screen or lock and unlock. It becomes most apparent in games but also when selecting files. Not so much when typing...

    Picked up my N7 yesterday

    I love it. Best way to sum that up I suppose lol. I picked up a 16gb from Office Max (whom I despise) but came home and played with it and was extremely happy. It reminded me of when I got home with my brand new Galaxy Nexus back in January. So far with my $25 Play credit, I've got Tapatalk...

    [Verizon] Kernels with color control

    So I'm currently using LeanKernel 4.3 on XenonHD, but I was previously using a version of Trinity's kernel and was wondering if there's any app or something that can change color control for other kernels. I liked the blue hue that Trinity gave off so I was hoping to replicate that with Lean :-)

    [Verizon] 160+ character SMS converted to MMS

    Hey everyone, so today I decided to switch from GoSMS Pro to an inverted stock MMS app, and I love everything about it, except I noticed that whenever I exceed 160 characters, it automatically converts the message to an MMS. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? It's kind of annoying...
