    Root stuck at SuperOneClick

    Hi guys, I have a prob. I was following the directions to the SuperOneClick process here, here and here (I've done lots of research elsewhere too), and got stuck at process #7 with the 'Auto' exploit. The window said it was "Not Responding", and as such I eventually closed it because it did not...

    YouTube update?

    The latest YouTube update came a couple days ago, for some reason my phone has not updated yet. However I'm not sure I want to update, in the app description it says the app now "preloads" on Froyo and Gingerbread devices. I'm on Gingerbread, but I need to spare all the memory I can get. The...

    7" or 10" tablets: which is best for gaming?

    A week ago I picked up a 10" tablet and realized how bulky and cumbersome it was in my hands. I'm new to tablets, and I couldn't really hold it like I wanted to. I was trying to hold it like a console controller, but was having no luck. Instead, I had to hold one end up with a hand.. and touch...

    could Nexus 10 have HDMI out?

    I've researched just about every tablet on the market and still cannot make any decisions on which tablet is right for me. The only things holding me back from the N7 is the 7" screen and no HDMI. I want to know what you guys expect from the assumed Nexus 10? I want it to have HDMI.. but I'm...

    a unusual Android/Apple Bestbuy experience

    So yesterday I went to Bestbuy to look around at Android tablets. I already knew they wouldn't have the Nexus 7, but I asked anyway. The employee told me that Bestbuy no longer carried them because of some lawsuit with Apple and that it is now a rare find. Laughing it off as if I didn't know...

    Battery app: accurate/widget/notification? >:D

    Hi! I've been struggling to find a battery app I'm happy with. I recently downloaded the amazing SystemPanel app (the best task manager IMO), and it seems to have a pretty good grasp on my phone's performance percentages --and I'm a total noober at this stuff :p Well because it doesn't have a...

    Phone is lagging, need to disable processes?

    After recently downloading GOLauncher and some extensions to go with it, I have noticed performance issues (lag). I'm not turning back though, I love my GOLauncher. Instead, I need an app that can give me control over which processes are running in the background? I'm not necessarily looking to...

    Gmail app; labels

    Hi, is there a way to control what labels are synced to the Gmail app? I have about 100 different labels in Gmail (I'm very organized), and I think the long sync times are possibly taking a toll on my battery.. :turtle:

    Android/Chrome permissions?

    Hi, I was wondering at what point does an app decide to run and access the permissions on your phone and/or browser? Does it begin accessing that information directly after the app is installed, or only when the app is running? I have a couple apps on my phone that require FINE GPS location...

    the best Cloud storage solution(s)?

    Hi all, I've done heavy amounts of research on Cloud services, and I just can't seem to settle on one. Along with an Android app, I like a service that uses encryption and has OS integration. However, every service seems to have iffy ToS & privacy policies. From Microsoft's 'SkyDrive' to...

    Gmail app; how does the 'sync' features work?

    Hi all, I've been wondering how the synchronization features work in the Gmail app? What is considered a good setting for mail/labels? 'Sync none', 'Sync all', or 'Sync last # days'? How many days should I choose? No matter which options I set them to, I can't seem to tell a difference in my...

    Help I need my YouTube app to read a different account?

    Help How reliable is uninstalling an app?

    I paid for and downloaded a lame 1$ app that was at least 6MB in size, and when I had gone into settings>applications>manage applications to finally uninstall it, the app was only 1.5MB in size? I was hoping to delete the whole 6MB, but I have no idea where the other 4.5MB could be? I tried...

    Help Homescreen transitions seem slow?

    Hi everyone, I'm new here. I have had my new Samsung Galaxy S phone for only a couple days now, it is pretty sweet phone. Up until recently.. I have seemingly noticed a slow, almost glitchy-like transition every time I flick through my 7 home-screens? I have read another forum about a Galaxy 2...
