    Help Using individual ringtones in non-stock apps?

    So I went to set an individual ringtone and messaging tone for a contact. I'm using Google Voice. I've programmed both their regular number and the GV incoming number for them into contacts but I still get the default tones. Is there any way to get this to work without using stock apps and my...

    Help Cracked screen

    I have no idea how I did this and I've never had it happen on any of my phones before (including a previous Note 2) but somehow I've cracked my screen. Anyone have any idea as to how much this is going to cost me to replace in the US? Is it worth it?

    Help Play Store Errors

    I'm getting errors loading/updating apps from the Play Store. Some apps are silly ones I can do without but I'm also having errors getting items like Google Voice and Google Drive to download. I've seen error codes 500, 502, 927 and some odd string of letters and numbers. I really need Voice and...

    SSD & mSATA SSD?

    I've got a laptop (hp envy 15-j092nr) which I've switched out the main HD for a Samsung SSD. Mind numbing the difference. While I was under the hatch, I noticed there was a slot I wasn't familiar with. Turns out it is a mSATA slot. I've read that there are some people concerned about the...

    Fears unfounded?

    So I am doing a bit of research before this phone launches on T-Mobile tomorrow. The reviews I had read seemed to be not too shabby. Then I got here and started reading about the cracked screens and the less than stellar info about the camera's performance. What appealed to me about this...

    Snapseed for Android!!!!

    Snapseed is finally available for Android! You might need to go look for it through the Snapseed web page as I was having trouble getting it to come up on a search in the store. The best part is that this app that was created for tablets does work on the Note 2! I've been waiting for this app...

    Video conversion settings?

    Anyone want to take a stab at what the optimal settings for videos we're going to load onto the N7 should be or is that best left until we actually get the device in hand? Sorry Google but I'm not going to pay to stream what I already own. :p (I'd be using handbrake for final conversion...

    46" Sony GTV, would you buy?

    A bit of background, I haven't owned a tv since the big digi switch over here in the US. I usually entertain myself on my laptop by either watching movies on DVD, Blu-ray or Netflix. I was recently in my local Best Buy and they had the 46" Sony GTV for less than $800 if I remember right. Would...

    Q for Australian N1 users

    I'll be visiting Australia over New Years and I'll most likely be bringing my N1 with me to use over there. (Unless a bag of cash lands in my lap when the next Nexus comes out.) It's the US TMO version. I'm wondering which pre-paid carrier will work best with it? I'll be there three weeks and...

    Sorry for the odd title but this might even make a good idea for a sticky? (I even think a well written post would be good to sticky on its own w/o bothering with anything else raised here possibly. This will be the first time I'm wading into social media that isn't community based with very...

    Dock battery widget via XDA

    I'm surprised I haven't seen a thread posted on this yet. I was lurking on XDA just now and came across a posting by the member Highland3r. They have created a widget that reads battery status for the tablet and dock! The link to their posting where they have the download links is below. They...

    bgm_ files?

    I just did a resync of my N1 and noticed a bunch of songs that start out bgm_ then have and artist name and song title as part of the song file name. I click on it and it plays a song alright. Thing is, I didn't have these on my computer to sync to my phone. And I think one of these files played...

    Irish N1 users?

    Any N1 users in Ireland here? I *might* be visiting a friend there sometime soon and want to use my US TMO N1 there. I'll be there for two to three weeks so I'm thinking I'll do pre-paid. I see there are four carriers: Voda, O2, 3 and Meteor. Any ones to look at? Any to avoid at all costs...
