[QUOTE=garychencool;38125360]Apparently my friends Galaxy Nexus gets OTA updates to 4.1.2 ...[/QUOTE] Yakjuxx is still 4.1.1, no 4.1.2 OTA in Canada as far as I know. The Gnex in my household is still on 4.1.1.
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;38121496]do not install Bluestacks. even after "uninstalling" it leaves shit all over your Windows. don't do the same mistake I did[/QUOTE] What, I couldn't find anything left over after I uninstalled it... [editline]21st October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=jaybuz;38123711]16GB is plenty for me.[/QUOTE] Since its pretty obvious that Nexus devices won't have microSD cards say all, a 32 gb model would be fine.

[QUOTE=garychencool;38125429] Since its pretty obvious that Nexus devices won't have microSD cards say all, a 32 gb model would be fine.[/QUOTE] I agree, and I hate these "fine for me" statements. That's amazing, good for you, but it's not fine for other people who have lots of media. With HD phones you'd think they'd have sufficient space to put HD content. Some of us need more than 16GB, but Google hasn't offered anything higher than that with any of their phones or tablets yet. I have a certain TV show that I keep on my iPad that wouldn't even fit on a Nexus 7 or Galaxy Nexus. With the 32GB Nexus 7 coming, it seems logical to assume there'll be a 32GB Nexus phone, but I'd be a lot more comfortable if they also made a 64GB one since they won't put an SD slot.
[QUOTE=FlashFireSix;38124442] For fucks sake my home button is broken so when I open those certain apps that don't close when you keep hitting back I'm stuck fml I need to reboot my phone every time I browse FP :suicide:[/QUOTE] use an app called notification toggle, you can use it to switch apps and escape geels app!
[QUOTE=Jarnz;38123623]I'm getting one no matter the size, I'll take a 16GB nexus over this S2 any day. Updated to the 17th CM10 nightly on my S2 just before and noticed the single finger expanding in the notifications for the first time, seems very awkward to control. One of the 4.1.2 features, maybe my screen just needs a clean.[/QUOTE] No,its just a really awkward system.

I mean months ago I would copy tons of movies and anime onto my 32 gb card as a media dump and it would last me a week or two. I don't do that as much today because I could steam on CR and it was always a hassle to grab my external hard drive and plug it in all the time. I could run a steaming server of some sort but no computer is on all the time...

As it's hardcoded.

[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;38126265]what happened to that zone?[/QUOTE] Not sure, put it on the side and wiped it with a towel and returned after a minute and it just didn't respond turned it off and left it, after an hour I turned it on and those two parts of the screen have just never responded since.
what's the best free music app like poweramp? preferably with album art downloads and a widget or an app that can take a jpg and bind it to the mp3 id3 or whatever

How do I enable USB OTG on my Galaxy SII CM9? I've tried Mice and flash drives, and neither show up or respond to being plugged in. I'm using a special USB OTG cable. (It's not a big loss if I can't do it though, I spent <$.90 on it.
Yay! The Bionic is getting ICS in a few days and eventually JB. Motorola is still shit though. I've been waiting forever for this.

[img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/12347804/whodat.png[/img] Anyone know who that is? I don't know what he wants, but I think he's pissed. I'm running CM10 by the way. (And no, opening the notification drawer doesn't help)
USB debugging CM'd icon? edit: You should have a USB debugging notification as well though.
looks like an android dude with an eyepatch
It's Cid, the CyanogenMod mascot.
CM Stats?
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;38127380]It's USB debugging. It shows that icon because you're using CyanogenMod. [editline]21st October 2012[/editline] The robot is called Cid, iirc[/QUOTE] USB debugging is off, and I've never turned it on.
