I picked up Defiance as a pre-order from Steam for the bonus items and other content and started playing as soon as I got home from work on release day. Needless to say I have not hardly played anything else since Tuesday the 2nd. Read on for some quick early impressions that I will try to keep as spoiler free as I can. Read the rest of this entry »

I will make this short and sweet. Anyone that was waiting for the Jelly Bean image to be available direct from Google can now go get it here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#sojus. This should make flashing new ROMs a lot less worry-some. Get the images and then go ahead flash to your heart’s content.

I was a victim to clicking through things too fast and was recently greeted with a blank friends list when I pulled my phone out the other day to see if my wife had made it where she was going. The version of maps that is running on devices with Jelly Bean such as the Nexus 7 is different than what is currently running on 4.0.4. If you did what I did and un-checked the wrong box you can actually mess up friends for all other mobile devices and even using a browser. Instructions on how to get your Friend List back after the break. Read the rest of this entry »

There was a change to the Google drivers page that now includes the CDMA and LTE drivers for the VZW GNex. Yeah you read the title and that first sentence right. Not sure if NFC will work since that is listed separate for the Nexus S but not listed for the Galaxy Nexus. The good news is though a clean AOSP source build will have working CDMA LTE. Expect the Jelly Bean ROMs to take off now that the source is live and you can pull the binaries. There is one thing though that everyone should know before jumping for joy. We are missing some files yet… Read the rest of this entry »

There has been a huge storm on the internet about Verizon and their shared data lately. I am primarily a VZW subscriber but do have service with Sprint as well. I think the data sizes are a little small but other than that the plan is decent for the average consumer which after-all is who VZW is aiming for. All of the people like me that are building ROMs and tweaking where they can are going to have some regrets losing unlimited data. Read on to see my data usage and how this new shared format will actually save me over $80 a month. Read the rest of this entry »
