I do Technical Support for two businesses; a small ISP and a large University. On the side I run a Minecraft server, fiddle in various Linux distros, and program (mostly Ruby). My last phone was a Nexus S; my current one is a Galaxy Nexus (GSM).

comment Drive letter for MTP connection under Windows
This answer is backwards; the question is how to mount the phone with a drive letter... not how to mount a drive onto the phone.

comment Yakjuxw to Yakju/Takju, will it corrupt or destroy my Galaxy Nexus yakjuxw?
Other than possibly voiding your warranty, I am not aware of any reason you could not upgrade your phone @peterdums. I could, of course, be wrong. Notably if the carrier has some required pre-installed app to use the service.

comment I need a way to trace GPS trails in the background
Considering how many apps can do this @Narayanan, I'm not sure I understand your comment. Enabling GPS cannot be done by an app... but that's not the same as starting to trace, when the GPS is already enabled.

Since My Tracks can be turned on and off via Tasker, My Tracks serves every purpose. Thank you very much for the answer... no compromise!

comment Is there a way to organize the numbered MP3's from Google Play?
I would like to add that this app is free for the first 50 songs, then costs $2.49 to unlock.

comment How do i correct my far-too-sensitive proximity sensor?
Installed Z-Device, but it has no active test of the sensor. It just indicates that it works and has a Max range of 5cm. I have no aftermarket anything on the phone. And I don't want to void the warranty installing Cyanogen. Any other ideas?

That's nice to know, and it would be an adequate workaround, but I'd still prefer an app that would organize them directly on the phone.

There is another app from the same author; a paid sequal, $0.99. You might want to see if that later version works where the other failed, if you're willing to spend a dollar.
