[QUOTE=Mikaru-Yanagida;45255495]Does anyone have suggestions as far as android tablets go? I'm looking to get a new one since the screen on my old one started to crack, and I actually want a smaller screen this time around (my current one is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 inch model).[/QUOTE] nexus 7 2013 refurb/new models pop up every so often on ebay daily deals

I hope the new design brings in same size icons throughout the launcher. It's the worst thing aesthetically about Android.

[QUOTE=PyroCF;45256787]I hope the new design brings in same size icons throughout the launcher. It's the worst thing aesthetically about Android.[/QUOTE] im not sure i agree. i actually like the differently-shaped icon stuff, makes it easy to tell apps apart at a glance. i used a launcher that added a differently-colored rounded rectangle behind every icon (hi iOS!) and i found it pretty unpleasant to use.
Oh hey we're on the 444 page
Now how do we reach the L page?
[QUOTE=Jays2Kings;45258272]Now how do we reach the L page?[/QUOTE] Go to page 7 and turn your monitor upside down.
My GNex radio decided to burn up. Not literally, but the signal is so atrocious and can barely hold a signal indoors anymore and cooks. Because I needed a new phone, and I wasn't going back to a goddamn HTC Eris I decided to go for the M8. Wished I could have held out another month for the G3, but oh well. I won't lie though, this thing is pretty damn nice coming from a GNex. My battery actually lasts beyond 12 hours. And doesn't start fires.

[QUOTE=iCole;45260497]You'll miss that [B]feature[/B] one day.[/QUOTE] Well it was a great handwarmer in the winter.
Anybody else here call the HTC M8 the "HTC Mate" or is that just an aussie thing?
[QUOTE=K1ngo64;45261213]Anybody else here call the HTC M8 the "HTC Mate" or is that just an aussie thing?[/QUOTE] I thought that was the whole point of the name and have been reading it in my head like that since I first set my eyes upon it.
Does using WiFi use more battery than using 3g?
[QUOTE=Richy19;45261565]Does using WiFi use more battery than using 3g?[/QUOTE] I'd say yes, Depending on your version, wifi will auto-sync, rather than being an option on data Even then, you need 3g if you want to recieve/send MMS Just turn off wifi if you're not using it [editline]1st July 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=LordCrypto;44227876]any pictures uploaded, no matter where they are, if greater than 2048 on the longest side, count. maximum file size for a picture is 50MB, maximum video file size is 1GB if you use sharex with google plus, you have to make a new album every 1000 pictures, because you can only have 1000 pictures in an album (hopefully they'll change that)[/QUOTE] 4 months later...

I got my Pressy. It's shit. That's my review.
[QUOTE=Scratch.;45261710]I'd say yes, Depending on your version, wifi will auto-sync, rather than being an option on data Even then, you need 3g if you want to recieve/send MMS[/QUOTE] wifi could have consumed more battery 4 years ago when phones were potatoes but now? it's a no brainer, it's a battery saver
Hahaha I got my phone to reboot itself and it's still completely stock. Fuck you Samsung
[QUOTE=Protocol7;45262970]I got my Pressy. It's shit. That's my review.[/QUOTE] Yeah I've used my pressy once since I got it and it works like shit. I can't do long presses at all, one long press for me becomes one long press and two short presses. They responded on an email in like 2 hours but after I wrote my response on a little more info and stuff they haven't responded at all. Overall it's shit. I give your review A+.
It's just not useful. Especially with the input lag. If they had tasker implementation like it says they would have had on the kickstarter it'd be 100% less shitty. [editline]1st July 2014[/editline] Also, I'm thinking. How hard do you guys think it's be to get a Galaxy Gear working with a One M8? I can upgrade early on Verizon's Edge and I think I just might get the One M8.

You'd still need some sort of phone signal/connection to make/receive phone calls and sms.

I should get something like this [url]http://www.dx.com/p/iphone-5-nano-sim-to-micro-sim-nano-sim-to-sim-micro-sim-to-sim-card-adapter-set-black-3-pcs-166588#.U7L6_NJDucI[/url]
Still tempted to change my iPhone for Nexus 5, but want to know - how is the battery life?
Reverted back to 4.4.4, Lost about a month of data due to a fucked nandroid, but all is good. I still have nandroid of L still present on my phone. Might try it out again when xposed does a release, which I hear is being worked on already. L was great, although the fucking recent apps menu is a lot more efficient, because I'm not sure of I'm closing the app I want to close due to the layering of them

[QUOTE=DrAkcel;45265103]Still tempted to change my iPhone for Nexus 5, but want to know - how is the battery life?[/QUOTE] Unclear, since they're improving android battery life in the future I found a longer battery when running L, possibly due to having a lot less on my phone. Other than that it depends what you're doing. I can get maybe 4-5 hours on Ingress, which is the most intense application on the battery I have. In my current state, I am able to get a good 100 hours on standby [editline]2nd July 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=garychencool;45265173]I heard tethering was broken[/QUOTE] Never tried it. Only ever needed to tether once with android, and even then it didn't work on the 4.4.3
