    Nexus 4 on Metro

    People are reporting more and more success getting the Nexus 4 running on Tmo/Metros blended network. For the price of this high end phone out of network ( destroys the USA version of the S3), you'd be crazy not to take advantage. This is such an amazing opportunity for those of us stuck with...

    Root How I'm getting insane battery life

    First things first. Everyone's usage habits are different. Everyone keeps certain settings differently. I'm not guaranteeing this will work, I'm only sharing what I've done to get the best battery life out of this phone. And make no mistake this is hands down the BEST battery life I've ever...

    Help If you're having a problem with 4.2.2. ***Please Read***

    Especially if your phone is experiencing horrific lag a few days after installing a clean ROM, or an official update. Go into keyboard and input settings and disable everything that has to do with Swype. Apparently Swype has an issue where it keeps storing data to the point where it will...

    About Battery Life ***Please read***

    It is no secret the battery life on the Nexus is pretty awful. Even with the extended battery we can only hope to get a good 5 hours or so at a time. That being said I've got an interesting story to share that happened over the last few days... My battery life had always been awful, even the...

    Root [CDMA] Question: Why don't you root?

    Coming from a metro galaxy indulge, and the abysmal (though definitely noble) attempts to start a dev community there, it blows my mind to find a phone with such amazing support, only to find such a vast majority unwilling to tinker with it. I'm truly curious, with this much support, what are...

    Root [CDMA] A request for an oc'd custom ics kernel

    Since the blow up on xda with shooter kernel guys, I am coming here to ask if anyone has access or a link to either chad's anthrax v4 ics or kernel, or any other one that is fairly stable? Google just turns up dead links...

    Root We have kernel, so the question is, what now?

    First off i'd like to say thank you for everything K0 has done. The man, while not acting alone and he will even be the first to admit he has had plenty of help, really has been the backbone of our small community. We would have accomplished very little without him. That being said what now...

    LTE Phase II roll out completed soon.

    Keep track of it here kids. If you notice you have 4g (and or 3g) in areas you previously didn't let us know. We are approaching the day when this should becoming more and more obvious. More people outside of Florida are starting to see capped 3g and or 4g. Just to brush up those who...

    Root A Summary of explanations about your new, shiny, admire (and Metro in general)

    Does Metropcs have legitimate 3G? Yes, surprisingly. Recently some markets were having a horrible time adjusting to just how many Metro customer's were switching their phones over to androids. Y'see kids,the problem started when people realized how affordable, and downright awesome the LG...

    This is addressed to those of you with THE BEST SIGNALS imaginable What's it like? An example, if needed to sum this up better to those of you who don't get what I'm actually asking. In the outskirts of Boston (as well as many places in Boston) my indulge will hit a constant max of...

    A serious discussion about Launchers

    I'll start. I'm not happy with any of them right now, and because I'm a chatty Cathy, we is gonna discuss it. What do you use? Show me a picture of it? Show me a picture of your sister? Is she hot? What's the best launcher and why?

    Root A Custom Kernel, or...

    how I learned how to stop caring about overclocks. No really. I know someone is working on one. I also know the next version of Basix may have one included. That is unfortunately all I know. Curious for any more information there. Help a brother out.

    Root Help, Pulled a totally nub move and yeah bricked...

    I seem to only be able to boot into manual mode (i.e. Samsung recover mode with only four options) after a bad (stupid) kernel flash. Thats all that happens. I've tried Odin, and I've tried Hemidall. I did not repartition in odin or hemidal, but I "Wiped Data Partition" in CWM like a nub. I...

    Help 4G/CDMA Stutter...

    Not necessarily an Indulge problem per say, however in my area at least (Boston) I have noticed it is extremely difficult maintain a smooth connection. Not really a big deal for web browsing per say, but when trying to stream or watch youtube, it gets extremely irritating. This is happens...

    Root Look at how far we've come guys...

    I'm serious. Remember when a root looked hopeless? Remember when we were lucky to get 4 and a half hours of battery life out of this godawful piece of crap? Remember when the xda guys wouldn't even sneeze on us (though minus a few exceptions, that one's still kind of true)? Remember when this...
