New Galaxy Nexus owner

I upgraded to the Galaxy Nexus a little while ago and am officially decommissioning my Droid Incredible 2 (but I'll still keep it as a backup just in case). I won't have time to root it until this weekend, but once I do, I look forward to sharing my ROM flashing adventures with you guys. And with the sheer number of ROMs available for this device, it looks like I'll be in flashaholic heaven.

Quick question. I disabled Google books and Google earth, but they keep re-enabling themselves and reappearing in my app drawer. I thought disabling unwanted system apps was supposed to prevent this.

I noticed that when I first got the phone and was running a stock rom. Doesn't seem to be an issue when custom roms.
Also, if you haven't unlocked your bootloader yet, remember to back up the important stuff because it will wipe everything.

Facetime for Android?

Is there any such app that will allow me to be able to do facetime with family that have Iphones?

Google hangout works really good.

Google+ Hangouts is awesome.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Similar to G+ hangouts...
Google Talk has Video Chat. It's built in to every Android phone.

I understand his question with an app that interfaces with facetime. All other users have to download Tango or other apps to use across OS's to get it to work. My wife has an Ipad that my 3 year old uses facetime to talk with his Aunt and its pretty seamless in the video and voice with out signal issues that we get using Tango on our slow satelite internet in the sticks. It would be nice if an app existed that interfaced with facetime but I understand apples stance if they wont allow this. Bastards I tell ya!

good to know. personally I don't own an "I" anything so had no way to test.
Some customers did the oovoo thing in store on their new s3's and it was pretty sweet. Sorry it did not work out.

I thought Apple kept facetime proprietary on purpose. didn't a Google engineer talk smack about it compared to the open api that talk uses?

true, yes they do/did. interoperability is not a goal or hallmark of iApple.
and it might have made sense when they were the only real game in town.
(i'm not insinuating that they ever were, just public perception)
now it just isolates the platform and it's users.
if they wish to stay relevant in the upcoming 5 years, they need to change this, seeing as Android is the dominant OS in the market, and only continues to increase. soon, no one will "pay for the privilege" of using a piece of software that is isolated from the majority of smartphone users. (you can actually apply this theory to any aspect of an iDevice)
as far as smack talking, i would not be surprised. and would love to read anything that is talking trash about iCompany.

Hey Apple can your iphones do this?

I just love it

iSheep have different mentality. At least where I work... "But... wait... how... Wait a minute, I can jailbreak and do the same, just watch me"
I am not holding my breath.

I work at JCPenney's and with former apple bigwig now running the show here, its amazing how many problems I encounter daily with CR-apple devices...
I just want to pull Ron Johnson aside and tell him to invest in XDA Devs to manage competent android devices... been waiting months for any new app, and the ones we do have have are in serious need of updating(months overdue)... to think how fast devs get things accomplished for practically nothing on XDA, while apple devs under contract with JCP take months to get anything done is a travesty

You have to use the Samsung default keyboard, it'll float over any input field and you can move it around

Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

First, be sure to have both apps opened. Then, on one of the apps touch on the typing area, to bring up the keyboard. Write at least one letter, and it should be able to float around. I tried to make it float without writing a single letter and it won't. Maybe it's just me, but it worked as described. :thumbup:

I'm assuming your phone is rooted. If so can you upload the keyboard apk? If not I'll just download a stock rom.

I wouldn't be surprised if a jailbroken iPhone could do that. And it'd be worth more in 2 years - and it'd still be getting software updates too, which I'm almost positive our Note 2s won't be getting in more than a year. >>
However, one thing the Note 2 can do that the iPhone will never be able to do is use a stylus like the s-pen. Sure, you can use a stylus, but it's like drawing with preschool crayons.
Just thought I'd be the voice of reason here lol

I don't have a note 2. I have an iPod touch and an Atrix 4G.
Apps on the iPhone can't resize. There is no framework for it. Even if it were possible the screen is too small.
Also I haven't seen any alternative keyboards.
The iPhone has a solid, simple, smart experience, however it does not have the potential of Android. An iPhone looks nicer, works seamlessly but isn't as capable as an Android phone.

Galaxy s4 Lte advanced

Guess what was just announced? A new s4 with lte advanced technology, a snapdragon 800 processor, and 32 gig built in storage. Wtf Samsung? I just bought the s4 and now your dishing out a new version making owners of this phone feel disappointed. I'm sick of this bs. I want to make sure I have the top Samsung gadget and for you guys to release a new one 2 weeks after I bought mine is complete bs. I'm no longer going with samstung

New technology going to come out every month, samsung will continue rolling out 4 different version of the same thing, either get with the program or well...dont. There's the htc, there's the xperia, and some other i can't think of that i actually care for.

Anyone have insight on when this may get resolved? Should I go back to 4.2.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

It will be resolved when app develops resolve it.

Considering that the OS has been around for a bit over a week I'm amazed at how many apps ARE compatible.
If you have mission critical stuff, by all means go back to or stay with 4.2.x until the specific developer updates.
Otherwise enjoy the new OS and be patient. The good Devs are on it...

Well worth it being without a few apps for awhile.
This is the price we pay for being the very first to get these updates. I don't mind it myself but for those that are bothered just wait for a free weeks before upgrading next time to give the app devs time to catch up.
Food anyone have the amazon store.apk? Not the app store but the app for the regular store. I think it will work but play store won't let me download.
