    Root [GUIDE] How to update manually to 4.4.1

    I've been studying dozens of threads over at XDA all day and finally got my head around this update. For those new or inexperienced users (me!) it can be daunting and very confusing so I thought I'd type up some step by step instructions that worked for me. Pre-conditions: UK Nexus 5 (D281)...

    Donate to AF without buying Premium

    Guys I realised how much of a helpful resource this place is, it's taught me an awful lot, helped me unbelievably and saved me whenever I encountered problems. To show my support I'd love to throw some money somewhere but I don't want to buy Premium as I don't need any of those Premium...

    Root Is it safe to freeze 'Photos' in Titanium?

    Just wondering if it's safe to freeze Photos as I don't ever use it. I do however use Google+ so don't know if the two are intertwined... Any ideas? Furthermore, is there a safe-to-freeze list knocking around at all? For this specific device... Thanks.

    Choppy video playback and unresponsive keyboard

    Hi guys hope you're all well and enjoying your Nexus 5's. I've had my N5 from the release date and I do love it. But the two things I keep noticing are the following. Choppy video playback - I notice this 80% of the time. YouTube videos on WiFi and 3G are choppy, every two or three seconds...

    Anyone still rocking the out-of-the-box screen protector?

    So who is still using the screen protector that was stuck on the screen when you first opened it, the one with "nexus5" across the middle of it? Lol... The one on the back camera fell off very quickly but the front one is still stuck on strong but the nexus5 logo is starting to annoy me...

    Backup and restore question

    I'm using NeatROM Lite v3.5 as i had some random unexpected unexplainable freezes where it was stuck on yellow triangle boot screen. I simply booted to recovery and repeated the ROM install with full wipe beforehand. This doesn't bother me but I lose all my settings (simple things like...

    Want to save a draft SMS but then send a different message to the same person

    Hi all... As the topic suggests, I want to save a text message as a draft but then send the same recipient a different message. If I explain why it might make more sense. The recipient is one of my workmen. I want to create a message with the site address and work required for his job...

    [UK] Where do you find out about up-and-coming phones?

    Where, or what sites, have information on up-and-coming phones, or sneak peaks / teasers? And how far generally do they go into the future? Around February / March next year I will be looking for a replacement to my HTC Hero. I want to start research now but all I ever find are phones...

    Astro backup / restore question after update to 2.1

    I have backed up some apps using Astro (particularly games that I have gone very far in, and still play). When I eventually get the 2.1 update, can I simply go back into Astro and restore the backups, and they'll be no different? Lettuce

    Would an EVO 4G work in the UK?

    Hi all. I have a soft spot for the HTC EVO 4G but as there is no 4G network here in the UK, would the phone still operate? I assume it would just operate on whatever type of connectivity is available (2G, 3G, HSDPA, etc). With that in mind, theoretically, could I buy one, have it shipped...

    Regret buying HTC Hero

    Hi all. Is anyone in the same boat as me, whereby you're tied into an 18-month contract with this phone, with a reasonably expensive tariff, and can't do anything about it? I want to like this phone, and I love the whole Android thing, and the apps, and the whole smart-phone concept, it's...
