PSA: The Nexus 5 And Other Nexus Devices Ship With Voice Typing Disabled In Settings, Causing ICS-Style Popups And 3rd Party Keyboard Errors

http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/nexusae0_mic_thumb.png

Have you noticed that sometimes your Nexus 5 reverts to the old Ice Cream Sandwich-style pop-up for voice dictation in some apps, as opposed to the less disruptive "endless dictation" on-the-keyboard style? You're not alone. Our fearless leader Artem found that his N5's microphone icon was missing from the default keyboard, and using contextual mic icons (in search boxes and other places) caused the aforesaid behavior. It was also messing with third-party keyboards like SwiftKey.

An Emoji Bug Is Crashing The Hangouts Android App - Google Is Aware And Working On A Fix

http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/nexusae0_unnamed-1_thumb5.png

At some point in your childhood, one of your parents may have warned you against making faces - "knock it off," they said, "or your face will freeze like that." That sound advice might not actually be true, but it seems to have a pertinent application for the latest versions of the Hangouts app on Android. Reddit user Recon2012 found an app-killing bug within Hangouts relating to the new emoji functionality in the Android keyboard.

[Hands-on] SolCalendar, A Calendar For Those Who Love Pastels And Playful Widgets

http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/nexusae0_sol-calendar_thumb.png

Since the ye olde days of wired-syncing on Blackberry, I've loved calendar apps. It's the app I use most on my phone, and so I'm always curious to try out new ones. SolCalendar looks especially lovely, so I gave it a trial run.

Setup

Setup was a breeze. It has on-screen instructions and immediately synced with my Google calendar without me having to log in or anything. Interestingly enough, it found a calendar to sync that I don't actually have (Nike Calendar?), but whatever.

Blizzard's Hearthstone: Heroes Of Warcraft Trading Card Game Is Coming To Android In 2014

http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/nexusae0_hearthstone_thumb.png

Blizzard is a game developer and publisher - maybe you've heard of them. They're responsible for little series like Diablo, Starcraft, and World Of Warcraft, among others. The company's latest effort is an online, multiplayer trading card game called Hearthstone, currently in an invite-only beta on PC. Polygon reports that at the annual BlizzCon in Anaheim, California, the company announced that Hearthstone will be released on Android in 2014.

Hearthstone is loosely set in Blizzard's Warcraft franchise, hence the subtitle "Heroes of Warcraft." Like other collectible card games, it's being built from the ground up on the free-to-play model, though reports from early beta players indicate that it's still easy enough to get into the main game without spending money.

Light Flow Updated To Version 3.12.6, Now Supports Android 4.4, Better Handles Hangouts/SMS Integration, Has Improved Layout, And More

http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/nexusae0_LightFlow-Thumb_thumb.png

Have a KitKat device? If so, you've made the leap to the latest version of Android faster than most other people. That's the fun part. You've also jumped to Android 4.4 before most apps. That's the not so fun part. While older apps are generally stable and compatible, sometimes an update is in order to iron out the kinks. Thus a new version of Light Flow is now available that makes the app more compatible with Android 4.4 and the Nexus 5.

Sprint's Nexus 5 Pops Up On Amazon, Costs Just $49.99 With A New Two-Year Contract - But Is A Whopping $499.99 Without A Plan

http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/nexusae0_Nexus5-Thumb_thumb.png

The Nexus 5 is a ground-breaking device. For Android fans, this is the first high-end handset that customers can buy unsubsidized and activate on all but one of the major American carriers. This isn't a big deal with AT&T and T-Mobile, as Nexus 4 buyers could already use their networks last year, but the addition of Sprint is reason to take notice. If they can do it, it stands to reason that so could Verizon.
