Some may or my not know that amazon is kicking off their store by offering 1 free app every day.. now if you already downloaded the app just click on the icon and its on the front page... but for the rest of you follow the link below.
todays app is Farm Frenzy
i have not been able to download the APK for the amazon store yet. i have been trying for 2 days now. Does anybody have this?
Here you go.
I was skeptical about their app store at first but now I really love it. My family all shares one Amazon account so if one person buys an app we can all use it. Plus this free-app-a-day sceme that was so popular on iOS is now on Android. Excellent work, Amazon.
So Happy Its Thursday

So they can charge if you purchase anything, its a pretty standard practice.

Go to any drug store and get a Visa/MC/Amex gift card with whatever little denomination. Amazon needs to have a card on file *in case* you ever ACTUALLY buy something. Standard practice.

Shazam is a cool app I thought about buying it full price before. It tells you the name of a song after listening to it
so when i downloaded the app. i input all of my information. and it keeps saying i need to add a default address to be able to purchase...But i have put a default addres... and all my info..including a card on file. Wtf
It's actually easier to set up an amazon account online and then just sign in from the app...just FYI. Saves headaches
So I am also hearing that apple is crying over a copyright over the name appstore and suing amazon....and he told m thee amazon app store is going t be shut down soon anyone know about this?

Came home from work to my new nexus 7! I gotta say opening the box was a pain in the ass but well worth the patience. Overall I have to admit I am very impressed with this device, incredibly fast and truly "buttery" smooth. Jelly bean is incredible and this is my first "pure" android experience and so far so good. At first I was concerned about the quality of the display and the "washed" out look but contrary to what everyone thinks I happen to think it looks great! And fortunately I am very grateful that my n7 doesn't have the screen displacement that everyone has been talking about. And I really didn't want to go through the trouble of returning mine to Google play and waiting for another one lol. I come from a family that absolutely loves apple phones, laptops, and ipads. I'm sort of an android junkie and love the freedom that comes with it, with that being said I figure this would make a perfect first tablet for me to own and after extensive use of my families ipads In my personal opinion I have to say that the n7 is superior in many ways. Great tablet, specs, and price! So kudos to Asus and Google for bringing this bad boy to the market!

Yeh, just opened mine yesterday and love it! The first time opening the box was fine was easy for me. But I put the documents back in the box. When I tried to open it to read hem, it was really hard. Overall it is a great tablet. Can't wait to root!

I'd recommend unlocking the bootloader right now, because it wipes all your user data.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
+1 for unlocking now. I waited a couple of days and it was a pain doing the usual backup routine.
I blanked out and didn't unlock it when I got it. What I'm gonna do is root it do a nandroid backup then unlock and restore.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yeah I still haven't gotten around to rooting or unlocking yet... This thing is amazing I can't put it down lol. Is the root toolkit compatible with the latest update 4.1.1? Haven't updated yet but it keeps asking me every single time I power it on

Can you install a custom recovery to do a nandroid backup with the bootloader locked?

If you could make a nandroid backup, copying the file to a computer for storage would allow you to wipe the tablet and then copy the file back and restore.
Thats what I was going to do

I'm right there with you. I was nervous after reading the negative reviews, but I've had mine 2 weeks and no problems. I also come from a long line of Apple lovers and cant wait to show off all the "buttery" goodness of this fine device.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
Making a nandroid didn't even cross my mind when I did it, I wouldn't worry..... anyways, don't you need an unlocked bootloader or root to install a recovery to make a nandroid? Just my thoughts, I ,might be wrong.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
On mine I did a simple adb backup and restore. Took about an hour including set up(never done it before) and it was a painless way to keep all apps and app data as well as settings. Anyone looking to unlock and not have to deal with losing app data should Google it and check out out.

You needed to be unlocked to root. I just unlocked my boot loader, no problem. To do a backup, use the backup for apps in wugfresh's toolkit, you don't need root to do it.

Seeing as most PS3 sites give me no response I figured I'd post here and see if the great xda community could help...
Well I bought a phat PS3 from a yard sale for 25 bucks, guys said it wouldn't take disks, i figure hell the disk drives out I have a spare why not. I take it home disassembled it and find the the guy broke the clamp for the ribbon cable to the mother board. So now where I'm at is how do I Gerry rig this cable into place, where it will hold a constant connection, any ideas?
O also I tried running a firmware update and am now stuck in a boot loop of update because it can't find the drive...FAIL ON MY BEHALF :banghead:

Damn right Lol, my ps3 that was thrown at the ground is pieced together. its an 80 gig phat, the housing is from a 60 gig, disk drive is a refurb off eBay, the power PCB(eject and power button and LEDs) was taken from a 60 gig Lol and everything else is original from the console, I find it amazing she threw it at the ground with a disk in it and the only thing that broke was the power PCB Lol the disk drive was borked because the original owner took it apart to get his game out and lost the laser doh

I received my LG phone back but it's locked and the disgruntled employee smashed the screen. I'm an note3 owner so I'm clueless to the LG Android platform. What are my best options here? I'm considering replacing the screen myself as I've done before on phones but to get into the phone and everything is not an option I assume.

Wow! What happened? Why did the screen get smashed? I would freaking say something.... you shouldn't have to fix it.
If need be, you can pop the back cover off with a guitar pick, or similar. Its just like a Samsung once you get inside. Remove the battery, remove the rear housing, remove the motherboard, vibrator, antennae, etc.
Yeah I've replaced screens before. Suggestions on cheapest place to order one? Local place wants 160 bucks to replace it lol

Untold? I fired the person for theft of fuel. Some cannot be trusted with a monitored fuel card I guess. Especially when the card is tied to a certain vehicle and they have to use a unique pin at the pump. My 160 out of pocket to repair a phone is chump change when it's a few hundred dollars of fuel

And there it is. Had this happen at my place of employment. Said person was ultimately fired for a 2$ charge. Giving employees G2s to use, nice boss... Lol
Maybe it"s a factor to some, but idc if it's 2 dollars or 2000, cant stand a thief. I can understand the not bothering part as well, if you ever recover the price it will have cost you even more. Some former employee's of mine thought being the boss makes you rich so you wont notice, both are usually idiotic ideas. Why they think i owe them but they owe me nothing is beyond me.

god, until that explanation, i sat here reading this thread as if you sent your phone back to LG to get something fixed, and then an LG employee was disgruntled, broke the screen, and sent it back to you like that.
i'm sure many others read the story the same way, dude..lol you have to be more descriptive..that's why people are all, "you shouldn't have to pay for this, make them pay for it!" as in, make LG pay for something they did.
but obviously now we understand the situation

I was thinking the same exact thing - except that it was a disgruntled Verizon employee who was the culprit.
Never put it past VZW to send out a warranty replacement with issues lol
Once I get this fixed I may use an upgrade from another line to use the g2 as a spare for myself. Are they locked bootloader like my note 3?
