Wireless Tether is back, compatible with ICS and a rooted Galaxy Nexus (LTE). http://www.droid-life.com/2011/12/18/wireless-tether-updated-now-works-with-rooted-galaxy-nexus-lte/ Edit: Well, except for me, apparently. Any ideas about this:

Does anyone know of an app that will forward or send all calls directly to voicemail? I want my calls to be forwarded and Sprint charges for unconditional call forwarding, so I'm hoping an app can do this. Edit: ^ I just tried the latest WiFi Tether and it worked fine on my LTE GN. Did you make sure you had WiFi turned off and set the device profile to Samsung Galaxy Nexus (4G_LTE)? letsgoflyers81 fucked around with this message at 02:06 on Dec 19, 2011 |

goku chewbacca posted:Enable Google Voice integration and turn on Do Not Disturb. You can schedule it to expire, as well. I don't think that would work for what I want. If I turn on integration I'd lose having two distinct numbers. My Sprint number is my primary number, and I just got a Verizon Galaxy Nexus from work. I want all of my calls and SMS to forward to that phone. I use Google Voice for voicemail and a secondary number, so I want all the forwarding to go to that. I found an app that will forward SMS, but obviously my Sprint phone needs to be on to receive and forward them. If I leave the Sprint phone on, it takes a while to ring, go to voicemail, then forward to GV and the Verizon phone.

Is there any Wikipedia app with a queue feature? After having an iPhone for years, I just got myself a Galaxy Nexus and the only thing I miss so far is the queue feature in Wikipanion. The few Wikipedia apps I tried didn't appear to have a queue feature, or at least I couldn't find it.

Biggest human being Ever posted:I like Swiftkey X, it is pretty much the stock keyboard with better word prediction. For what it's worth I've been using Swiftkey since around June and I have noticed that it's a heck of a lot harder to type on the Neon themed skin than the stock white skin. Just a weird quirk.

Is it ok to post my own app? It's free and contains no ads but if not I'll use re-use this post to talk about..a different app. Tap Location I developed this app, it's basic but I'm pleased with the out come and would like to share/hear feedback on it if you'd like. It does these things: ● One touch geo-location using your network-provider or GPS. ● Configure a preset message when sending the message to friends and family. ● Attach Latitude and Longitude coordinates to the message. ● Easily search through your contacts by scrolling or use active search in app. I'm aware that gmaps has similar functionality but I wanted a stand alone app for this process. Plus there are a few coding bits that I want to re-use in later apps that I sorted out in this one. Won't you try it out?

I do like the thought of attaching latitude and longitude coordinates to a message easily. That's slick. I'm just curious about the country restrictions... Android Market posted:China Mobile Samsung Nexus S Since it's free, I'm just a little confused why it'd be blocked in China. I mean, I can just use MarketEnabler, but still. EDIT: I tried it, seems to work alright securing my location over wifi, but using GPS I waited for 3-5min and it still wouldn't update with my location. Also forces the US number format on all phone numbers in your phone book when looking them up with the app (not great) SB35 fucked around with this message at 16:19 on Dec 19, 2011 |

Aatrek posted:Wireless Tether is back, compatible with ICS and a rooted Galaxy Nexus (LTE). Go into Superuser and clear any entries you may have made for the Wifi Tether app, then try to activate & deactivate tethering again. Also, since this is bleeding-edge beta, you may have to fiddle with certain settings to keep it from erroring out. Example: A previous beta had a glitch where it would only work properly on the Droid Bionic if you enabled encryption.

Suggestions for a podcast app? One with a widget. Listen sucks and has no widget. BeyondPod is a a mess. I don't listen to podcasts often enough to justify paying for Doggcatcher. I am a picky bitch.

I use A-Cast. There is a free version with ads, or a pay version that I can't remember how much I paid. It is very good, and very rarely gives me problems. No widget, though.

Maker Of Shoes posted:Yeah, I'm finally an ADW EX convert. Fede's abandonment of LP+ is disheartening and with ICS right around the corner this "re-write" of his is going to become moot anyway. ADWEX has the better feature set and Android Pro Widgets definitely picks up the widget slack. My only complaint about ADW EX is that it takes some tinkering to get set up the way you like it and the menu layout for its options seems...well, not good. Am I hugely underestimating the ADW EX dock, or is it just not as feature-rich as LPP/Go Launcher EX? Namely I'm totally used to swiping my icons for a second app (tap = dialer, swipe = contacts etc.) and I'm loathe to give it up, but I want to give ADW EX a fair whirl.

Is there a way to remove all my downloaded apps while keeping my contacts intact? I got a new phone and it automatically loaded everything from my old one. Which is nice but I'd like a clean Apps slate. I tried using the factory reset but it still syncs with google to reload everything.

When you first start setting up the phone, it asks if you want to load up all the apps or something that you had installed before. Look at all the settings while setting up. There's something there.

I'm looking for a few utility app recommendations. My criteria is that they be free and not look like rear end. The "not look like rear end" is the part I'm having the most trouble with. I need a kitchen timer (multiple timers is nice but not necessary. Pause/resume is required), a stopwatch, and a notepad of some sort (not Evernote). Widgets are OK, too.

Stopwatch & Timer is as no-frills as it gets. It isn't as pretty as Hybrid Stopwatch, but it isn't ad-supported or $2, and it does both countdown timers and regular stopwatch functions with laps, etc.
