Thanks a million for the info. Have you personally tried it out at all? If so what was your overall experience with it?

I haven't tried it. I know Tim said he tried it and it booted and everything. However, there is no phone signal and it only works on WiFi.

Yea I'm pretty excited about it but unfortunately there's not much development going on for our device right now. (Well at least not much that I could find anyway) The last bit that was released was in June/July and I couldn't get it to boot on my phone sadly but with the upcoming public release of Ubuntu Touch on the the 17th, hopefully we'll see an increase in development. I would love to have this as a daily driver if data would work on it.

Has anyone tried this lately? I would love to see a functioning build... I would try it but last time I ran into trouble and had to use Matts utility... As I don't have access to a PC I'm a tad hesitant to give it another flash

Unfortunately it is not free. There is an in app purchurase, to unloc a key of the app. The funny thing is that for Apple users is free. I personally used the previous version, but Thanks to this I will try a new app to perform this function. Definitely lost a customer and sincerely hope that many others go away to.
Same here... Am enjoying watching the ratings go down for it... people are angry....

How does the anywhere access thing work? If I let's say i go on Vacation do I have to leave my computer on the whole time in order to access it?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yep to the above.. you have to pay by the month or year for that access.... that is why most people are pissed... try teamviewer...

Yes you have to leave it on.
So does the old splash top HD still work, since that didn't require a monthly fee? Edit: yup still works even over 3G

I would love to see multi user on the nexus 4..I think it wouldn't be hard since it's already in 4.2... think it would make sense for doing different setups like different launcher, icon packs, theme etc..I wonder if it's just a line or lines of code to turn it on and/ or is any body up for the challenge!!?

Multi-user support is only available on tablets. Nokia has a patent on multi-user support on phones.
I am sure a build.prop edit can fix it.

That is more for switching ROMs ...not having different setups (launcher, icon packs etc)

Well its only for tablets, I think the reason for that being tablets are more family and sharing, whereas phones are a personal device. Why would you want to share your phone?

I don't see anything in build.prop specifically disabling multi-user mode. Looks like I was wrong.

Bored, trolling or no way to imagine use cases when multi-users may be handy?
If I want to show something to a client on my Nexus 4 (or any other device) without providing access to my apps and data?
or
If I'm willing to give it to my 3-4 years offspring for a video or a game, without risking my contacts, notes, mails?

This is the only reason I would need it, but it is a good one. If my 5 year old wants to watch a movie or play a game I wouldn't have to worry about her screwing up my home screen or deleting apps like she has been known to do.
I believe Paranoid to be the answer. That's if you don't mind rooting.
Great example above and the most used I'm sure.

Have you tried on Nexus 7

Requires root.
Removes some of the limitations of the present 4.2 multi-users' policies.

I don't even know what cornerstone is, maybe asking in a thread where it's actually used.

Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I think I remember reading in other threads here that cornerstone hasn't been updated to function with current versions of android and porting it would be incredibly difficult... Unless I'm thinking of a different mod...

The last that I saw on it was that it was not exactly playing well with 4.2.2. It has a nasty habit of breaking other apps, causing users to give them poor reviews in the play store. As such, the Android team has justifiably threatened to ban roms that use Cornerstone from the play store.

did you read it all? CM IS STILL FREE (now and forever)
they are going to offer the same rom, they want to make a pc installer too!
As long as it stays android I would say it's great, but it almost reads as it may be a new os. Really found it interesting more than anything

is it me or is the XDA app a little buggy since the KK upgrade?
Mine never highlights the correct message and force closes a bit.
I actually just restored my tab to so its a brand new install.
Not a huge deal but just wondering if the app was bing updated or its just something with my tablet.
thanks

The free version of the paid version? I've got the paid version and it doesn't seem to work right, even on my Xperia Miro running 4.0.4.
For me the problems started already on 4.3, but they continue on 4.4

Have the same problems. Started on 4.3 as well... Drives me crazy. Can't hardly "thank" anyone without creating a new post underneath it and also my recents are usually not updated.... I've tried everything.... Terrible.

The point is we shouldn't HAVE to use tapatalk. I don't follow a lot of forums so the XDA app and Bacon Reader is all I need. It should just work. Especially the paid version.

It does need fixed, maybe everyone needs to submit feedback/report the bugs. I definitely recommend tapatalk though as it's just better and is getting updated. I don't follow a load of forums either, just use it specifically for xda.

I just tried tapatalk app and i must say WOW. screw xda app i am never going back to it now.
Thanks for the taptalk suggestion.
