The Uploader is really shitty for Google Music too.

Pandora does have a desktop app as well.

We’ll also see what type of library Google provides.

Missed the synced notifications before. SUPER COOL.

The hangouts thing looks pretty cool, I’ve used them already (old ones).

Oh yeah, I don’t doubt it, but I’d like to know that my data is being transmitted and stored securely.

I seem to recall that their username/password saving capabilities were storing passwords locally in plaintext, though. So naturally, I’d like to see some storage encryption of my data. Ala, lastpass.

Props to Larry Page for taking questions and being personal on stage.

Sucks that there wasn’t an announcement of a new Nexus tablet.

lol I was a cricket

I just replaced my 10 year old droid with a Galaxy note 2 and it is sweeeeet.

any news on possibility of a CDMA version of the nexus4?

Very little android/device news. I would highly doubt seeing any CDMA devices in the nexus program after the sprint/vzw issues with them in the past though.

They announced unlocked galaxy s4 available for sale in the play store for AT&T and tmobile. That was the only device announcement.

very underwhelming I/O for sure, No new android version and no new devices (unless you want to call the S4 google edition a new device). There was only one device giveaway a chrome book pixel. Highly dissapointed in the event.

Ordered s4 for Vzw , can’t wait to ditch this i5

Droid Razr Maxx issue…

Phone is on and receiving information, but the screen never comes on. I can eventually guess at the the location of things on the screen and unlock it, I can even turn the phone off (again, by guessing at where things are) or make calls. I have not been able to perform a reset, but I know the buttons are working because I’ve taken about a dozen screen shots (all of which are blank). Any idea what is wrong and how to fix it???

If you reboot it, does the Motorola logo appear at all? Can you see the boot animations?

Absolutely nothing shows up on the screen, I can hear the startup sequence though. And it vibrates…

Either A) connection came loose or B) the screen is totally fucked.

About a month and a half ago I sent the phone back to Moto to replace a cracked screen. No issues until this week, blinked out for about half a day Wednesday, never came back after it happened again yesterday.

probably a loose wire on your screen, send it back again.

Oh BTW:

Sonic now available on Android.

Been on Jelly Bean for weeks now, no issues until this Wednesday this week. I assumed it was the mega email my boss sent me that zapped all the processing power and RAM.
