    Changing my main Google Account because GSuite is broken?

    I've been a long time user of Google's G Suite account (now called Google Workspace) where my account is tied to my own domain name. This has been great but as time has gone on, I've found that more and more Google Services and functionality is restricted to not work with G Suite user accounts...

    Android Wear OS timer and battery life

    I was an early adopter for the 1st gen Moto 360 watch which was a great watch but the battery wouldn't last a whole day using the always on option. My watch has to have an always on display and I need it to last for as long as possible but 24 hours is an absolute must. I soon after upgraded to a...

    Help What to upgrade to from a Nexus 5?

    I've had the Nexus 5 for quite a while and it's been a really good phone but it's getting long in the tooth. I was feeling this before the release of the Nexus 5X but decided to hold out until the release but the 5X has been very disappointing (the increased size over the Nexus 5 is an instant...

    Apps Android Development Courses

    I'm a competent C# developer (mainly WinForms and desktop applications). I really want to get into Android development but my initial attempts by buying a few books and looking at online tutorials were not working. I often found that a lot of things were unexplained or I wanted to do something...

    Apps Registering to publish paid applications

    I wanted to register my Android Market account so I can publish paid applications. It seems as though entering a postal address is mandatory. I don't want my home address to be made public, what are people doing to fill this information in?

    Who's tempted by this phone?

    I love Android but I really don't like the designs of the HTC phones. I mean, I know HTC can design quality phones (Diamond, Diamond 2, Touch Pro 2 etc) but they do not seem to use the same design team for the Android phones. The Samsung phone on the other hand is in a different league to the...

    Help HTC Magic zoom wheel

    Visited my local Vodafone store to have a play with this phone and couldn't get the zoom wheel to come up like this video shows (Android’s Circular Zoom On the HTC Magic | Android Phone Fans) Did they drop this feature or is it initiated using some other method? TIA

    Apps Changes on top of android?

    Does anyone know what changes have been made on top of android by both HTC and T-mobile. They both could have potentially made their own customisations. If no one knows, how can I find out the answer? Thanks very much.

    Shapewriter

    Anyone tried using this application yet? Seems like a great input editor for those that want to type stuff without using the keyboard (e.g. quick bit of text). Any feedback or opinions on its use?

    Gmail application and sent messages

    I currently use IMAP on my Windows Mobile phone and what bugs me is that messages the sent messages between Googlemail web and the WM phone do not synchronise (only the inbox does). Can anyone confirm if the gmail application on G1 does not suffer this problem? i.e. messages sent from the...

    Compass video

    I remember seeing a video of a virtual compass that would always point North and the top of the compass would always point to the sky. This was obviously using the accelerometer and the compass sensors. Does anyone know where I can find the video. I can't seem to find it again. Thanks.

    Where to find a list of avaiable applications?

    I find the Android Developer Challenge competition but I'm struggling to find a full list of applications for Android that is viewable on the Internet (I don't have a G1 yet). Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

    Help Landscape orientation

    I've been reading reviews and watching videos but I can't figure out if the G1 switches to landscape when the phone is turned on its side (keyboard not pulled out). All the videos only show it going in landscape when the keyboard is out. If I'm watching videos or photos, would be great if I...
