    Games that utilize Cloud Save?

    After Cloud Saves were announced at I/O, I was all excited for cross-platform data syncing for apps. 2 weeks later, it seems that of all of my games, not one developer has embraced this. Does anyone know of ANY games that utilize the new Cloud Save APIs?

    Help Using my ported number with Google Voice on the Nexus 4?

    Hey all! Like many, I am eagerly anticipating the arrival of this phone, and look forward to dumping Verizon for a prepaid plan. In order to protect my current phone number (that I have used for 10 years now), I'm planning on having it ported to Google Voice. My question is this: once I've...

    https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers#torojro03c It looks like the Verizon Gnexus has all of the same binaries posted as the GSM version. Does this mean that we can build from source again!? I'm getting started tonight!

    [Verizon] Phone randomly turning off. Now it just hard reset itself?

    So I'm having a bit of a dilemma here. I installed one of the newest CM9 nightlies a few weeks ago, and ever since then, my phone has been randomly powering itself off. I tried mutliple different kernels, but all gave the same result. I then tried to nandroid back to an old 4.0.3 backup...

    [Verizon] AKOP vs CM9 Official: Preferences?

    I'm currently running Bugless Beast 4.0.3, which I like for its minimalism and bug-free nature. That said, I feel that it's time to upgrade to 4.0.4, and I'm interested in a ROM with a bit more customization. My top two choices right now are AKOP and CM9; could anyone with experience running...

    Voice Search not detecting contacts?

    So for the life of me, I can't figure out why Voice Search won't detect the contacts on this phone. I've synced and resynced contacts, cleared data for voice search, and installed and uninstalled the latest Voice search from the market. No matter what I do, it refuses to to dial a number or...

    [Verizon] Custom ROM question: should kernel, Base and Radio version match?

    So I've had my eye on a new Kernel that I want to install, but as a former Droid X-er, I'm not quite sure what is involved. If I install a designated 4.0.3 kernel, do I also have to install a 4.0.3 ROM and radio?

    [Verizon] Will Color Calibration fix my yellow tinted screen

    So long story short, I replaced my first Nexus, which had major vertical banding, with a new one. No banding at all. Unfortunately, I noticed a problem with the new one as well: a heavy yellowish tint to everything. I have read a bit about different kernels having the capability to calibrate...

    Help GTalk video call recipient cant see my video?

    I have been experimenting with Gtalk video calls, and for some reason, my call recipients have not been able to see me. I have tried using both cameras for my video feed, but the person on the other end only sees a black screen. I can see them perfectly. Is this a known issue, or is there...

    Calling Pre-Release Thread Vets: Anyone still have the e-mail for Verizon Customer Service VP?

    I just had a "wonderful" visit to my local corporate Verizon store, in an attempt to get them to replace my current G-Nexus for one without vertical banding. Long story short, the CSR was extremely rude: he compared his phone to mine on half brightness and said that he couldnt see a difference...

    Question: Does anyone here NOT have vertical banding on greys/navy blues?

    To be short, I love my Nexus, but I have noticed some mild vertical banding on grey backgrounds like the settings menu, and on navy blues like the Androidforums background. I have read that many others have noticed similar things, and before I take mine back to Verizon for a replacement, I...

    Help The laggy Live Wallpaper glitch

    So as many of you may have noticed by now, Live Wallpapers (with the exception of the default Phase Beam LWP) are extremely laggy on this phone. It is impossible for this to be due to the hardware, as most of these LWPs run twice as fast on my old, stock Droid X as they do on the G-Nexus...

    Help Pulse LED quirks?

    Hi all! Absolutely loving my awesome G-Nexus. I've been playing around with the notifications, and I've noticed a couple oddities with the pulsing LED notification light. I was hoping that someone else might be able to confirm if they're present on their phone. 1) When the LED pulses and...

    Root What's the difference between MIUI Defy X and the original MIUI4DX?

    Hi all. I've been running the original MIUI4DX, converted to work with the GB Kernel, for some time now. Now I see that there appears to be a new version called MIUI Defy X. In what ways is this new MIUI different from the Framework43 build that I'm currently using? Has the ROM been...

    Root Best way to get the GB Launcher2 on my CM7 DX?

    I've found various flashables for CM7 to do this on other phones, but I'm not sure if they would work for the X. I feel like ADW is too slow to use with some Live Wallpapers, and I'm hoping that the Hardware Accelerated Launcher2 from stock AOSP Gingerbread might be faster. I know that the GPU...

    Root I think that our Gingerbread is running off of a Froyo kernal...

    So I was reading up on the new features that were added to Gingerbread and I read that the Gingerbread kernel is supposed to be 2.6.35.x. I took a look and our GingerBlur is still running off of the same 2.6.32.9 as our Froyo build (admittedly, some of the post script that follows that kernel...

    Hi all. I have been following P3Droid religiously ever since he announced that he had gotten his hands on a leaked build of Gingerbread for the X, without Blur attached. At the time that he had announced it, he had mentioned that in its current form, it would only work on developer phones. Since...

    Root Possible cause of sub par battery life on Liberty 1.5 related to the Dialer?

    I, like many others, had always noticed shorter battery life after switching to Liberty. Until now, I had no explanation for this. However, in my last few charge cycles, I have noticed that the Dialer has shown up consistantly as a large battery user. To follow this up, I checked on my Battery...

    Why the price of Spectral Souls is completely fair

    Considering that many great full games on the Iphone App Store are $9.99 or more, I think that the asking price for Spectral Souls is very fair. For those who are familiar with I-OS titles, you may recall that games like Sonic the Hedgehog 4 are regularly released at a $15 price tag. I...
