[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] schmaltzy:
So I installed the Google Now update a couple days ago when Android 4.2 was announced. It's suppose to be able to pick tracking numbers, flights, etc., out of your Gmail.

My question is, does it only do this for emails received after you install the update?

I ask because I had 2 packages being delivered yesterday (Thursday the 1st) and Google Now had a couple days to index my inbox but it never showed anything about tracking information and I do have emails containing the tracking information, one from UPS and one from USPS. I also have a flight in two weeks to Denver. I received the confirmation email about two weeks ago and Google Now hasn't showed that at all either.

Any suggestions?

And yes, I have all the options turned ON for those particular settings in G-Now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eman3316@optonline.net:
I would think it would be for emails after you install. Otherwise you would have a lot of old non relevant items show up.

Did you try forwarding the email to yourself? Maybe that would pick it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] schmaltzy:
I see what you're saying, but since it's suppose to be able to pick out dates and stuff (I think anyway), it would know what fights you have coming up and which ones are in the past.....?

Yes, I sent the email to my work address, then back to myself. Still nothing.

Yeah I hurd a lot of bad about windows 8 especially if u don't have a touch screen witch I don't but I tryed it and I love it. I think it vary worth upgrading
[Windows 8 General] digitalexplr:
I wasn't sure about the Start Page at first but it is easy to adjust to. Plus if you just can't stand it install Stardock Start8 and you never have to deal with it.

I now have Win8 on 2 systems and will soon have it on 3rd.

I'm really liking it!
[Windows 8 General] aegixnova:
I think it's best if you upgrade, as Windows 8 will raise in price after January 31st.

Make sure you read over all the changes, of which there are a tonne, and take advantage of them.
[Windows 8 General] argentocruz:
May as well take advantage of the cheap upgrade offers now...

[Windows 8 General] rorreo:
New operating system+ new technology = new user experience
[Windows 8 General] aegixnova:
Here's a a rough summary of Windows 8's features - ignoring the obviously new UI everyone knows about:

Multimonitor support overhaul

File Explorer improvements with ribbon

Shorter boot times

Security enhancements

Faster file copying that can be paused and maintains a single window

Redesigned task manager

Integrated social and calendar applications

Native .iso mounting

Better battery usage

Cloud synchronization

File History continuous sequential backups

Backups to network drives

chkdsk that will take 10 secs each and every time rather than hours

Storage spaces for multiple hard drives (Like an OS-based RAID 0 or 1)

50% less RAM usage

Tighter CPU control

3G data monitoring

Vastly superior conflict resolution when copying files so you know exactly which files will be replaced and the exact differences

Copy/delete jobs that never stop halfway with an "are you sure?" message while you're AFK

Easy refresh and reset options in case of operating system failure

Windows Update which is now COMPLETELY automated and will never show a single popup ever again

UEFI motherboard support

Native USB 3.0 support

With the other, miscellaneous stuff like HYPER-V and other things that don't affect me- but may be of great use to others.
[Windows 8 General] JihadSquad:
This was already in windows 7 professional. I know because I used it.

This is really different from RAID. With storage spaces you can hook up random external drives to your computer and merge them to whatever drive you want. This is extremely useful for those who are too scared or do not know how to touch their hardware and those who have all-in-ones that are hard to modify.
[Windows 8 General] argentocruz:
JihadSquad speaks the truth...

just installed the latest asus drivers for the elan touchpad... fully customizable and pretty intuitive once you see all the different gesture settings...

I've always been a huge asus fan and I'm well impressed with their W8 support :D They've already got a W8 driver page for my lappie :good:

[HD7 General] stevew84:
I have an HD7 with bootloader in the 5.xx series. I've bought a simple Y-Cable, female adapter, and 1gb sd card. Used the correct method to download the goldcard, format SD, and rename the .sbh file to SCHUIMG. I'm not sure what is going on but no matter what, no power gets to my card reader while using the Y-cable.

I even went the route of making my own Y-cable using a couple extra USB's i had laying around. I don't know what to do.

I DO get power with my card reader when I plug it directly into my usb on my laptop, but NOT through the wall outlet. BUt with the Y-cable, I can't get power through the usb drive.
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
If your not getting any power to the card reader... Try this,

Plug the power supply of the Y cable in first, then connect the card reader to the Y cable and lastly connect the device while it's in USB host mode.

If your still your not getting power to it, try switching around the connections on the Y cable between the device and card reader.

Also once you put the device into USB host mode and connect it to the Y cable and it doesn't start the flash process, you have to disconnect the device from the Y cable, pull the battery and re-enter USB host mode again for it to recognize the Y cable connection and re-start the flash process.

If it's still unsuccessful I would recommend trying a different card reader as this is the most common problem when it's stuck in "Enter USB Host Mode". I had the same problem with my card reader, I went and bought a SanDisk 5 in 1 card reader and the flash process started immediately as soon as I connected the device to the Y cable.
[HD7 General] stevew84:
I've switched stuff around all different ways, got to be the card reader as the LED doesn't turn on when plugged to the cable..but will be on while in USB drive of laptop.

My y cable doesn't have a labeled power end.

[Networking] skinien:
Hi all.

I'm currently a Verizon customer and I hate the fact that their network is locked down because it's tied to CMDA. I like the idea of buying unlocked phones and popping in a SIM. Now that Google is selling unlocked Nexus phones at a ridiculously low price, I'm tempted to switch.

What I do like about Verizon's network is the quality. I've only been on at&t and Verizon and I can say that Verizon has a much better network than them in my experience. I'm also in a solid LTE area with grandfathered unlimited data.

Are there any people out there that have experienced both Verizon and T-mobiles networks? I know comparisons will vary from location to location - I'm in San Diego. Any advice on whether or not I should switch? I'd hate to switch only to learn that the network stinks and then lose my unlimited data when I go back to Verizon.

Thanks!
[Networking] MkVsTheWorld:
There will likely be a "cool off" period with the Nexus 4 as there was with the Galaxy Nexus, meaning you could get your money back after 2 weeks (or 30 days, I can't remember now). That's under the assumption you bought from the Play Store.

Then you could get the T-Mobile Prepaid $30 plan and test out T-Mobile's network for however long you have to return the Nexus 4. You'd just keep your Verizon line open while you are experimenting with T-Mobile.

The worse that you'd lose is a month's of prepaid service and maybe some repacking fees. The best is you'd be happy with T-Mobile and lower your monthly bill. Oh and there are plenty of people willing to take your Verizon Unlimited Data Plan for free and you could turn around and sell your Verizon phone.

That's what I did with the Galaxy Nexus and I was able to keep my number while being under contract (there's a Google Voice trick) . Verizon's LTE is faster than T-Mobile's HSPA but it's definitely suitable for my needs. I happen to think LTE is more than what average users really require.
[Networking] skinien:
Thanks for the input! That's a great idea.

What do you mean by "plenty of people willing to take your Verizon Unlimited Data Plan"?

I was also thinking about porting my number to google voice, but I realize I'd be losing MMS.

How would you compare Verizon and T-mobile in terms of building penetration and service in congested areas?
[Networking] MkVsTheWorld:
I would double check if the Play Store will allow returns for the LG Nexus 4, although I wouldn't see why not. I can't look up the site at the moment.

I was assuming that you are still in a contract. If you are, you can let someone assume your contract. It's called an assumption of liability and people will snatch up a contract that has unlimited data, especially with Verizon.

As far as building penetration, I don't notice much difference at all. I get better reception at my job and that is a 5 story building.

I think that the higher frequencies can become problematic if you are far from the tower, if there are many people using the same tower, the weather, etc. I don't believe in saying T-Mobile has bad building reception because it uses higher frequencies. But, it does play a factor.
[Networking] jordanishere:
You can also go prepaid on atts network. There are a bunch of mnvos, most notably straight talk.
[Networking] skinien:
Thanks. I'm going to try t-mobile's first. Their HSPA+ speeds are great according to this:

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2405597,00.asp
[Networking] jordanishere:
^ And according to me :)

I'm on a T-Mobile mnvo and I get the same speeds as I did on their network, with their data gateway.
[Networking] noesilva:
Id be interested in your granfathered unlimited data plan with verizon.
[Networking] inbetweenaisles:
Verizon

I'd say stick to Verizon. They have more cell towers and what not so reception is very good. Also, they had a better selection of phones in my opinion.
[Networking] rbruno66:
I just switched to T-Mobile from Sprint. I have an original Xoom on Verizon. T-Mobile has excellent voice coverage and pretty good data. If you are going to be traveling out of the US (which I do). T-Mobile is the way to go. It is hard to beat Verizon's coverage and speed domestically. You can't go wrong with either. I had a Galaxy Nexus on Sprint and it was a bad experience. Phone was great, but the network was horrible. My phone drained in about 2 hours when not on Wi-Fi. Hope this helps.
[Networking] skinien:
Do you know how this works? I've never heard of the ability to do hand off a contract until this thread.
[Networking] MkVsTheWorld:
You call Verizon Wireless assumption of liability department at 1-888-832-4540. You give them the first and last name of the person taking over the contract. Also, make sure you get your phone number ported to Google Voice beforehand. If you have questions about porting to Google Voice under contract see this thread:

[Networking] skinien:
Thanks. I was thinking about porting to voice but don't want to deal with MMS not working.
[Networking] v0te4ryan:
To be honest I just got switched from Verizon to t-mobile and though Verizon has more coverage T-Mobile network is still very good at least in Ohio, data isn't as fast as LTE but that's a given. Still HSPA+ is still quite fast.
[Networking] Babydollll:
I have several T-mobile phones, and my husband has a T-mobile phone and a Verizon phone. He's says there's really no difference in speed or coverage (we live in Jersey City, NJ....And to those of you that would like to dispute this claim...Note: this is my experience and opinion and I'm entitled to it. Thank you.)

or just go in to ATT and ask them to use one for a sec. Im sure if you tell them you need to unlock the phone to their network they will have no problem letting you use one for 30 sec.

Hi I am new to android can someone help me to create an app for different resolution i am trying to develop an android app using imageview and textview. I am using the standard AVD (800) for testing. Now all the images seem dis-arrayed when i use it for other resolutions. I am wondering if the solution is through coding wherein my design will adjust itself to the screen size automatically? Please help me here.

Secondly, when i use the auto-rotate feature, again all image placings get dis-arrayed. I am also looking for solution that will allow my images to maintain the placings when rotated.

Please help me with some reference articles, readings or code explanation.

Thank you for your help.

Ok so you said fastboot did not work as to why you used the jig correct?

What was wrong with the device before you used the jig? Softbricked, hardbricked?

Even though odin flashed successfully does not mean it flashed everything correctly.

Can you get into bootloader? If so, try doing factory reset.

While in bootloader, see if windows sees your device....if so see if fastboot works now.

[Nexus 4 General] Chochiwpg:
So many reviewers are making a big deal about no LTE support. Maybe it is an issue in the US, but here in Canada, only the big cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal have LTE from my understanding. I live in Winnipeg and we don't even have LTE. Telus has fantastic HSPA+ coverage in Winnipeg and it wouldn't be an issue whatsoever.

Also, regarding the glass backing. There are always cases you could buy to protect the glass on the back. The iPhone 4S sold a tonne of devices and noone complained about the glass back or non LTE support, why so many complaints already about the Nexus 4?

To me those are moot points TBH.
[Nexus 4 General] Pragmata:
I completely agree with you. I've only just skimmed the articles at this point to the Battery sections as well as catching the headlines and any block statements, but the concern about LTE doesn't bother me at all so that means... I'm SUPER EXCITED! These reviews are looking pretty good absent the glass and LTE. I've never dropped my phone so the glass backing isn't that big of a deal either as I don't intend to start.

I even live in Vancouver where I can get LTE speeds and I prefer to use HSPA+ cause it's more than enough with Telus.

I'm going to be reading through the reviews fully once I get to work, but so far so good for me! :D

Edit: The battery seems to get hit pretty hard if you have your screen on full brightness. Which is disappointing cause I normally run full brightness, but since I don't watch video at all I'm hoping that mitigates it. I want this baby running full blast brightness on that gorgeous screen!
