Can anyone confirm whether email app has pinch to zoom or not? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know that gmail now supports it but I'm wondering if the regular email app does as well. Any n4 users able to check for me?

Works on nexus 7 with update.. Man 4.2 is amazing!! Seems faster and smoother to which is a surprise! I did not expect these improvements. The new keyboard is great to. Way better than the swype app.
Oh wait.. My fault. Miss understood your question. I will check and let you know.

As above you need to tick the auto fit setting in general Gmail settings. Pinch to zoom the works.

AFAIK the normal Email app has had pinch to zoom since ICS, working fine on 4.2 on my HTC Nexus 5

Is it an app? I don't know what it is, but I hear about it and see screenshots of those cards, but it's not on my Nexus 4 as best I can tell. What do?

Swipe up from the lockscreen. Swipe up from the home button. Tap the Google search bar on the home screen. Open the Google app.
All will get you there.
In a nutshell, it's a replacement for the old search bar app.
Thanks guys, I'm silly.
Yes. Yes you are.
Google Now results in a lot of wakelock from Google Maps, as it constantly monitors your location. Wakelock plus GPS usage. A battery drain for sure.

[Q] Any apps that can read and send sms from other android device?

Is there an application that can read and send SMS from other Android devices, let say Xperia sola, and that I can read in my Nexus 7? I have searched the Play store and none that I have found or something I have missed. A help from you guys will be highly appreciated.

Not that I know of, but try downloading Air Droid on your phone and rather then going to the website on your computer go on it using your tablet. Should work, but you'll have to be on your browser in order to see your SMS and what not. Just throwing out ideas
That might be good. But reading and sending SMS might keep be handy. Thanks. Still anyone?

I use cloud SMS to send and receive SMS on my N7. Costs .99 and you install it on your phone and tablet. There are others that uses Bluetooth also.

I use cloud sms also. The developer did all the beta testing right here in the N7 forum for theming and apps, which I was fortunate to be a part of. The transport is via internet. Works wonderfully.
Tablet sms is also available on the market. Higher price, and the two devices must be on the same wifi network.

I'm using mysms (I guess e.e. cummings named it) on my phone and mysms Tablet on my Nexus. I believe they sync through the cloud, but however they do it, I have exactly the same SMS send and receive abilities on both devices. Unlike some other solutions, it uses my existing phone number.
I use tablet sms. It was a little higher price but IMO, it was worth it after trying just about every other one out there.
It can sync via wifi or bluetooth. I use bluetooth.
I can send and receive sms from the tablet and they still show up on my phone. I can receive picture messages on the tab with tablet sms. cant send pics with it yet though.
Setup was really easy for me, it has a nice pop up option so when you are browsing on the tab, your sms will pop up if you choose and you can reply right there without exiting whatever app you were in and carry on when you are done.
I got mysms it syncs all messages you have on your phone, and you can send as well, works really well I haven't had no problems.

Works great.
Use desksms for your phone and tabletsms for your tablet. Its 5$ per year with a 2 week trial. I use it on my tablets. It syncs through Google so as long as you're connected to WiFi you're good. Real quick too.

Ditto. Just had a whole convo last night with my hubby while I was babysitting. Phone was charging and my outlet wasn't nearby so I used Tablet Talk. It also has the option to connect via Blue tooth, if you're somewhere not connected to WiFi.

It's my understanding that MySMS has a Chrome extension, too, so you're able to text on your computer as well.

Best HD Contact restore app

Up to date I have been using HD Contact however it seems as if the quality the app saves is worse than if you just edit a picture and have it store it as a contact picture. Is there any apps that will store the photos like they should be?

Try Sync.ME. It saves all contact pictures in HD (from facebook).

I'm pretty sure you can use Titanium Backup (or similar app) to backup the People app and it will save the contact images as well. Then you can save/transfer that backup file to other/the same phone (i.e. after wiping).
Don't they sync to Google in high-res now? They do for me.

Replace them with high-res ones. Either on the web in gmail or the people app. They will sync high-res in the future.

Adding Apps to Multi-view Window

In the side bar for the multi-view window, is there a way to add other apps in addition to the ones that are automatically populated?
sure there is an app in the play store that allows pretty much anything to be used in multi view.
don't have my phone at the moment so you'll have to search.

Camera isnnt working
After flashing the GoogleHomeV2 on my Nexus 4 by recovery,the google search kept reporting error afterwards. After install the Google Search and Play Services and clearing all the default settings of luanchers, it went back to normal. However,the original factory camera app was gone, and i had to use a third party camera app instead.
Thank you for uploading the launcher and hope that this bug could be fixed soon.
