Android compatible stereos? by ddmeightballin Android

[–]eldridgea 14 points15 points ago

I use a Bluetooth stereo. I can't select music from the stereo, but I can change tracks, accept, decline, and end calls.

Police took my andriod on probable cause and have made text messages that strengthen my defense disappear. by [deleted]in Android

[–]eldridgea 5 points6 points ago

So if you could get access to your ex's phone and show the messages they sent/received that your phone doesn't show as received/sent, you might could use that as evidence of the police tampering with the evidence. If not, you could at least use it as you intended to use the original evidence.

IANAL.

Here's another vote for the Exomount. I use mine with my VZW Galazy Nexus and love it!

Why is Google Music streaming and downloading over 3G even though I set the settings to Wi-Fi only? by CrossCut49in Android

[–]eldridgea 0 points1 point ago

You've probably alreadt done this, but double check and make sure you have streaming to WiFi only AND download to WiFi only. It may not be srreaming over 3G but syncing.

Is It Possible to Automatically Push Google Music to Your Android For Offline Use by conradFin Android

[–]eldridgea 0 points1 point ago

I believe place all music in a playlist and (on the phone) select "make available offline".

Google: why can i order movies on my phone through market but not on my google tv? by JimmyTangoin Android

[–]eldridgea 0 points1 point ago

I haven't tried this but I believe the Android Market video rentals are identical to YouTube video rentals. So you should just be able yo use the built in browser and youtube.com/movies. Once again, havent tested it but it should pick up a ourchase from a mobile Android device.

Has anyone else noticed a bug with the Gmail app? by Ragemeisterin Android

This. Also check and see if you're syncing all email but the default view is set to Prority Inbox.

This Is Why Your Verizon Galaxy Nexus (Or Other 4G LTE VZW Phone) Is Losing Its Data Connection by xjarchaeologistin Android

[–]eldridgea 1 point2 points ago

You shouldn't need a data connection to use Wallet. I've used it on a Nexus S with Airplane mode on.

Searching for a tablet for my grandma. Help! by Frijidin gadgets

[–]eldridgea 2 points3 points ago

Browsing is built in on the Kindle. You may want to turn off the Silk feature though. It allegedly speeds everything up by processing things on Amazon servers but their have been reports it actually slows browsing down.

I don't know about email, but you do have access to webmail and the Amazon App Store.

What is the best way to move my contacts from an AT&T iPhone 4 to a Verizon Galaxy Nexus? by Sir_Derp_Herpingtonin Android

[–]eldridgea 0 points1 point ago

This is what I do. Sync you iPhone to your computer/iCloud if you have not already.

On a Mac you'll need to get a Address Book to CSV converter. This one seems to work. Import that into your Gmail account and when you log in on you Nexus, the contacts will begin downloading.

On a PC/Linux you'll need to do the same thing, but with whatever Contacts app you're using. I believe Outlook/Windows Contacts export to CSV natively. I could be wrong though. The end goal is a CSV file that you can import into Gmail.

Why are Apple computers the norm in design? by omgthatissoawesomein apple

[–]eldridgea 7 points8 points ago

For me it's mostly that the OS stays out of the way.

I don't have to deal with updates nearly as much, and when I do they're minimal. I don't have to deal with AVan the way it handles media is great if you use iPhoto and iTunes. (I don't use those exclusively, but they're still nice).

Also the window manger makes more sense once you get used to it. CS 5 tries to emulate this in Windows, and does fairly well I think, but on the Mac it's across all apps.

There's more, but a lot of it's just a feeling. And I don't mean I feel cooler using a Mac. I feel more efficient and I feel like the tool vanishes and it's just me and the design.

Google Music mobile site only shows a handful of tracks despite thousands uploaded accurately shown on desktop site. by jonnybrycein Android

[–]eldridgea 1 point2 points ago

I had to wait a while on my iOS device for my large library to load. On Android though I just use the new Music app in the Market and all works well.

HELP, REDDIT! I need to set up a portfolio website, and FAST. (xpost EVERYWHERE) by helloalicehelloin technology

[–]eldridgea 0 points1 point ago

For the quickest, probably use picasaweb.com and actually upload with the desktop Picasa client from [picasa.google.com(http://picasa.google.com).

Google account required.

EDIT: Make sure that you mark the album public before linking. Test the link from a browser where you are not logged in.

Is there a way to disable a cell connection and just use data to save battery? by AstronautMillionairein Android

[–]eldridgea 2 points3 points ago

I think EVDO is Verizon's selected 3G technology. The same way that LTE is their 4G technology.

Anyone else notice the white Macbook is no longer for sale? When did this happen? by jostoin apple

[–]eldridgea 1 point2 points ago

At the latest MacBook Air update. No one really mentioned it, but they were gone.

It is known. by magnus91in gadgets

[–]eldridgea 0 points1 point ago

Siri is pretty different though.

Obviously Android inspired, especially with server based dictation, but, they've definitely kicked it up a notch.

Any suggestions for a good iPhoto alternative? by balanceiskeyin apple

[–]eldridgea 1 point2 points ago

I second Picasa. It scans folders so you can have your own organization.

Also, I have all my folders on a local server, so that my MacBook Air can mange my library at home, but not fill up its tiny drive.
