You have to upload it from your PC using their sync client (warning: it's kind of glitchy and bad just like every other part of Google Music).

In the past month it's only used about 20 mb. That could be an issue. I dont know the number offhand but I'm a rather compulsive feed adder so I have a ton of unread poo poo. And I have some tumblr feeds in there as well which are obviously image heavy.

Unfortunately, right now, the only way to upload music from your phone to Google Music is through a silly Dropbox workaround. Set your Music Manager app to watch a Dropbox shared folder accessable on your computer, and upload the music from your phone to that Dropbox folder. Then the app will upload the music to Google Music. Kinda funky, but it works in the end.

I'm looking for an App that will do one of two things: -Stream the video camera FROM my phone to a PC over my carrier network (I have unlimited data, no biggie) -Record video, save it locally and upload it to my PC then delete it from the phone I'm looking to film stuff while on the road and my galaxy nexus has next to no disk space left for videos of any decent quality & length. Anyone know of something like this, or similar?

Carbon had been sitting on my tablet for the longest time because I was too lazy to go through with connecting it to my PC, and then I finally get around to connecting it and running the Carbon Windows application and am told afterwards that I no longer need to hook up my tablet to my PC to backup. DropSync sounds like what you want, free licence lets you sync one folder, the pro licence is about three quid and let you sync as many as you want.

How long does it take for the google music app to recognize that you've uploaded something? I've been looking at the desktop page intermittently and it's there but it won't show up in the app. Refreshing doesn't help.

Turned out several Google sync items were turned off, including Google Music. Settings > Google > Google account > make sure sync for Google Play Music is on. If it is, I don't know what the problem is.

Is NFC Task Launcher force closing for anyone else immediately after today's update? Uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, nothing works. Same thing on both my Nexus 7 and Nexus 4 (both stock 4.2.2, not rooted). Oddly enough, the app broke on the day I received my first set of NFC tags. (Cue Alanis Morissette's "Ironic") Edit: Looks like it's officially broken. Tagstand on the Google Play Store product page posted:Sorry about that. 5.0.2 is going live now and will fix this. mcbexx fucked around with this message at 20:29 on Apr 10, 2013 |

What do you guys use for capturing and cataloging receipts for month work expense sheets? My new job allows me to submit them digitally. I've started using Evernote to just snap them and keep them in a notebook for each month.

This was mentioned a few pages back: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.me.mobiexpensifyg&hl=en I have been using Google Keep recently for quick notes and capturing images (not receipts but I take pictures of book pages when I can't be bothered to type out a quote I might need one day) and I really like it. Much slicker than Evernote imo. Keep also lets you record voice memos and tries to transcribe them (usually badly), which is fun because you get to walk around saying "note to self".

I've started using Evernote to just snap them and keep them in a notebook for each month. I don't need to scan receipts but for mail, bills, and other business paperwork I use Evernote. At home I have a high-speed document scanner that pushes straight to Evernote, and on the go I use CamScanner. It generates PDFs and de-skews images, and then can push them to Evernote. It costs $5, but if you happen to have "free alumni email for life" from your university like I do you can just sign in with that .edu address and get the paid version for free.

http://androidcommunity.com/microsoft-office-for-android-tipped-for-a-fall-2014-arrival-20130410/ Looks like Microsoft Office will hit Android in November 2014. E: Google Chrome Beta has updated and now includes fullscreen browsing (keeps the notification bar though) and the ability to see your history if you're using Chrome Beta on a tablet. Chrome Beta for Android Update posted:The Chrome Team is happy to announce the promotion of Chrome 27 to the Beta channel for Android. Chrome 27.0.1453.49 contains a number of great new updates including: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/search/label/Chrome%20Beta%20for%20Android If things go like they did last time Beta updated, we'll see stable Chrome update in May around the time of Google I/O.

Using the default Google calendar do you have any idea how not to display it in my widget?  I usually have more stuff going on in my calendar, but I guess it's not a big deal if it's got those recurring events in it

Betamax double post Edit: I'll use this spot to put this since it's already here I think the whole 4 recurring alarms thing will work very well. I actually came up with 5 so I can have 1 for work days and 1 for non work days, all set on silent with no vibrate. This also have me a chance to play with the new alarm interface and I like it a lot. Fiendish Dr. Wu fucked around with this message at 13:49 on Apr 11, 2013 |

XIII posted:So, what's the general consensus on Greenify? I like the idea, but I don't want to install some glorified task manager and mess things up I used it along with some other app that was recommended earlier in the thread to be used in conjunction with greenify and noticed no appreciable improvement over 3-4 weeks. Uninstalling them hosed with a whole set of my sync settings, too. On another note, I don't know if this is a thing Uber is doing with all their users, or if I was selected by some blackbox-metric, but I've been given a referral code to give out to potential new subscribers. Anyone who creates a new account within the next seven days and uses the code gets a credit of up to $25 for their first Black Car ride, good until the end of April. Benefit to me is that I get a $20 credit to my account for every new user who signs up with the code and uses it by the end of April. Anyone out there who's been thinking of trying out Uber? If yes, I'll post up the promo code.

Uber is pretty awesome if you haven't used it before. I tried calling a cab in SF and waited 35 minutes past the appointed pickup time with no luck. Uber had a super friendly guy at my location in 3 minutes. It was more expensive than a plain old cab, but then again it isn't a raw deal when a plain old cab won't even bother to show up.

I'm coming from iOS to Android and I'm a bit confused on the options for playing and syncing music. I know I can use "DoubleTwist" to sync my Android phone with iTunes, but what are my options if I want to leave iTunes completely? Do I just copy my MP3s to the Android (using it as USB Mass Storage) and then pick any music application? If so, what is a good music management app to copy the music itself and keep it in-sync? (Maybe something that can also update wirelessly to my phone and copy any new music, etc?)

Remember how I mentioned that I was in the private beta for the next ES File Manager? There's now a public test version that's mostly complete. There are a few bugs that the developer is aware of and I wouldn't use it as your only browser but if you're curious the direction ES is moving in this is it. Honestly I like it quite a bit and the developers have been very quick about correcting the bugs.

LastInLine posted:There was a pretty large thread about that in the discussion forum with the developers and I tended to agree with the developers' decisions in the end. It has Holo conventions (side menu, left/right swipes to panes) but lacks things like cryptic unlabeled menu icons and hiding everything behind ⋮. There's plenty about the UI I'm not a fan of but in use I like it more than just about everything else. Took me 10 mins to figure out that selecting files automatically copies them. I looked for ages to find the copy option, ffs.
