    What is the most anticipated phone not yet released?

    Which phone are you most excited about that hasn't been released yet in 2013? The XFON looks like it's turning out to be a dud IMHO. I've heard faint rumblings about another google experience phone that will be slated for an Oct release, but know nothing other than that. So which phone has...

    What phone do you plan on upgrading to?

    I'm tempted to upgrade from my SGN to a Note II but I'm holding off. What phones that are rumored to be coming out (on Verizon) sound good? What phone do you plan on upgrading to (if you're even considering it)? I'm totally out of the loop.

    Help My Camera and Video are gone after JB update!

    Help! My SGN updated to JB (I'm not rooted or rom'd...everything is factory spec in the software department) and I just now noticed there's no "Camera" app! I always use Camera ZOOM FX for pictures, but that app I believe uses the native camera app for video. I may have had the camera app...

    Won't charge unless power is OFF. !?

    I walked into my room to find my 18 mo old daughter with the tip of the mini USB charger that came with my SGN in her mouth. I quickly grabbed it, inspected it, and dried it off and nothing seemed to be wrong. She also had my SGN but I don't think anything was wrong with that either. But now...

    LED with SMS

    WTF!?!? This is aggravating. When I get an email, the LED flashes just fine. But with text messages, it rarely flashes. I use Light Flow and have it set up for SMS, plus I have Handcent (just switched to GO SMS Pro) set to flash the LED when a text message comes in. Still no dice! What am...

    Help Another "how to" question

    The subject of "how to" with Ice Cream Sandwich almost needs it's own separate topic in this forum! That being said, I apologize but I have searched everywhere to no avail. How do I download pictures from google+ to my phone from my phone? It's frustrating that the devs at google never...

    Help LED Notifications in gmail app

    Does anyone here know how to change the LED notification settings on the gmail app? I installed Light Flow and that helped a little, but the deal is, I have three Gmail accounts and need them all available, but I only want LED notifications when I get an email for one of the accounts. The...

    AWESOME story of how I got my GNEX (share yours!)

    OK, so I conducted a poll here to see who was going to get the GNex opening day and who would wait...I answered that I would wait. I guess I lied. So I'm at work and I just can't stand having my constantly freezing, waiting-to-react Droid any more, so I called the Verizon store about a mile...

    iPhones on The Big Bang Theory

    So this is only going to pertain to anyone like myself who watching the tv show The Big Bang Theory, but has anyone here noticed that the four main characters...4 physicists who are all computer nerds and extremely tech savvy...use iPhones? If so, does anyone think that is ridiculous? Just...

    Is anyone here going to wait beyond the release date to get a Nexus?

    So we've seen a few bugs with the SGN, which is to be expected. And now the latest "bug" regarding the phone going ape when plugged into a USB chord. Granted, the problem very likely seems to be a cheap-o special USB vs. an "approved" USB chord for the SGN, but ultimately we don't know. So...

    Goodbye OG Droid

    So this may seem like a post more suitable for the OG Droid thread, but I disagree. The SGN, IMHO, seems to be the next phone that will truly change the smartphone landscape in many ways similar to the way the OG Droid did. So I thought I'd post a couple things here: A. a quick, Hallmark...

    Rooted RAZR vs. Galaxy Nexus -- which would you choose?

    So there have been several posts on this section of the forum and on the RAZR side, as well as the main Phandroid site all postulating the one question we've all asked: "RAZR or Nexus?" But, and I realize I'm slow here, I just read that the RAZR will be sold unlocked overseas and that it's...

    What kind of chip will the SGN camera have?

    So everyone was making a big deal of the camera being only 5mp, with the counter argument begin something along the lines of, "MPs aren't important, as long as it has a solid chip and lens." I haven't seen any articles or posts anywhere that break down what the Nexus has in this department...

    So what do you like and dislike about the Galaxy Nexus?

    OK, now that everything is official-like and there are a few hands-on videos and pictures, I thought I'd start a post to see what everyone's thoughts are, the things they like, the things they dislike, and just some general insight why. I'm not as "technophilic" as some here, but here are my...

    So will the Nexus Prime processor actually be an Exynos?

    So the main sticky states that the processor will be a TI OMAP4460 and *NOT* an Exynos...found this article here that claims otherwise and is a very interesting article indeed... Samsung Nexus Prime pops up at a retailer's web page in Singapore But with that being said, I didn't realize what a...

    What is a Super-AMOLED screen?

    Can someone tell me what a super AMOLED screen is? Was reading (can't remember which site) that stated that, based on current rumor specs, the Nexus Prime will have just barely slightly less ppi than the iPhone 4/4S, but that, because it's a super AMOLED screen, it will be a much clearer and...

    Nexus Prime Camera...5mp or 8mp?

    So depending on where you get your info, the Nexus Prime is either going to have a 5mp camera or an 8mp camera. More "sources" than not claim 5mp, but that could just be one erroneous source being echoed by everyone. Don't know about you all, but 5mp!?!? That almost seems like too pathetic...

    OG Droid owner holding out for Nexus Prime...should I?

    OK folks...here's the dealio. I just returned from a tour in Iraq and while there I followed tech blogs and all things phones, droid and ROMs for precisely 3 minutes...so I'm behind and kind of "in the dark." Running 2.2.1 and BB v0.5 and my OG still runs quite well but I just want to upgrade...

    Xoom vs. iPad vs. Galaxy comparison chart

    When Verizon finally announced the introduction of the iPhone 4, I have to admit, I was caught up in the hype. But over at droid-life they posted a chart comparing the Bionic, Thunderbolt, and the Verizon iPhone and it really made a world of difference. I simply don't think I could ever depart...

    WTF is it with MotoBlur!?!? (rant)

    So with the Bionic coming out it apparently will come with the nauseatingly horrible MotoBlur...and with a locked bootloader no less. Now I just read on Droid-Life that the Xoom may very well come with MotoBlur as well. You'd think Motorola would get the hint at the uber-excitement in the...

    Which new 4G/LTE phone looks the best?

    So I've been reading the blogs and I have to admit that, personally, I'm not really blown away. Sure some things look nice, but nothing earth-shattering...especially that while watching video of the DROID Bionic, the guy at the CES said all Verizon's new LTE phones would be launched with Froyo...

    Root Installing LauncherPro v0.8.2

    I have the free version of LauncherPro and it expires tomorrow. I downloaded v0.8.2 from the website (it's an .apk) but when I try to install it with Astro I get an "installation failed" message. Unfortunately, the LauncherPro website doesn't give any directions on installing the new version...

    Help Repeated System Update Notifications

    Hi all...Motorola Droid running 2.2 and BBv0.5 and I keep getting system update notifications where I'm asked to reboot and install or ignore...at which point the notification comes back in a few minutes. For grins I backed things up and clicked "Install" and it took me to the clockworkmod /...

    Root Phone won't reboot into SPRecovery

    I have SPRecovery (haven't updated it in a long time) on my phone as well as the latest version of ClockworkMod/ROM Manager. I cannot install or backup ROMs because RM won't reboot into SPRecovery. Also, I cannot manually reboot into SPRecovery...power + X takes me right to the Motorola flash...
