From the Android Forums: Managing recovery versions

Shiny Top asks in the Android Central forums,

I have two Galaxy Nexus phones, bought 3 weeks apart. I have uninstalled Rom Manager from both.

One, when I reboot into recovery, has CWM Recovery version 5.8.0.2 and the other has 6.0.1.0.1. The 5 version has larger letters and can be controlled by touch or volume and power button. The 6 version can only be controlled by the volume and power buttons. I don't know how to change the version and wonder if anybody can enlighten me. I prefer the 5 version if that matters.

We're glad you asked. There's two ways to install ClockworkMod recovery on your G Nex -- an easy way and a less-easy way. Let's hit the break and have a look at the methods.

Have a question you need answered? (Preferably about Android, but we're flexible.) Hit up our Contact Page to get in touch!

Rumored Samsung Galaxy S II Plus resurfaces: adds purported specs and pictures

It's been a long, long time since we first saw the unannounced Galaxy S II Plus show up in some leaked benchmarks. Today, however, Sammy's souped-up flavor of that famed S2 is making the rounds on the interwebs once more, and better yet, we've got an idea of what it could look like physically come its official revelation. According to Chilean carrier VTR, Samsung's Galaxy S II Plus will be sporting a 4.5-inch AMOLED display, which is said to be paired alongside a dual-core, 1.5GHz Exynos CPU, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of built-in storage and an 8-megapixel rear camera -- notably, the site's also listing it as an Ice Cream Sandwich device, making it slightly different than what we'd seen previously in earlier benchmark scores. Either way, all signs point toward the Korean outfit being close to legitimately introducing its S II Plus sooner rather than later; while we wait for that to happen, though, the angled shots after the break will have to suffice.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) ? Rep. Todd Akin defied the nation's top Republicans Tuesday and forged ahead with his besieged Senate bid, declaring the party was overreacting to his comments that women's bodies can prevent pregnancies in cases of "legitimate rape" and by insisting he abandon his campaign.

Akin pledged to carry on with his quest to unseat Democrat Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri. But his bid faced tall obstacles: a lack of money, a lack of party support and no assurance that his apologies would be enough to heal a self-inflicted political wound.

"I misspoke one word in one sentence on one day, and all of a sudden, overnight, everybody decides, 'Well, Akin can't possibly win,'" he said on a national radio show hosted by former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee. "Well, I don't agree with that."

Akin predicted he would bounce back from the political crisis threatening his campaign, including a call from presumptive presidential nominee Mitt Romney to leave the race, and capture a seat that is pivotal to Republican hopes of regaining control of the Senate.

"I'm in this race for the long haul, and we're going to win it," he told radio host Dana Loesch in St. Louis.

If he stays on the ballot, Akin will have to rebuild without any money from the national party and with new misgivings among rank-and-file Republican voters who just two weeks ago propelled him to a comfortable victory in a hotly contested three-way primary.

In a potential sign of his strategy, Akin appealed Tuesday to Christian evangelicals, anti-abortion activists and anti-establishment Republicans. He said he remains the best messenger to highlight respect for life and liberty that he contends are crumbling under the big-government policies of President Barack Obama.

Akin appealed to that audience directly during his interview with Huckabee, making allusions to the 9/11 terrorist attacks and focusing on the idea he had only misplaced a single word during a Sunday interview with St. Louis television station KTVI.

But Akin has been roundly criticized both for using the words "legitimate rape" and saying a woman's body has the ability to prevent conception after such an attack.

Hours earlier, Akin posted an online video in which he apologized again for his remarks. Campaign spokesman Ryan Hite said the apology was intended to cover both the reference to "legitimate rape" and Akin's assertion that rape victims have a natural defense against pregnancy. The video will run as a 30-second ad on TV stations statewide for several days, Hite said.

Tuesday was the final day in which Akin could withdraw from the race without a court order. As the 5 p.m. deadline to withdraw neared, Republican leaders intensified their pressure on Akin to exit.

Sen. Roy Blunt issued a joint statement Tuesday with all four of Missouri's living former Republican senators ? John Ashcroft, Kit Bond, Jim Talent and John Danforth ? saying "it serves the national interest" for Akin to step aside.

Pointing to the group, Romney said the congressman should "accept their counsel."

A Romney aide said the candidate had been inclined to let Akin make the decision on his own. But after the Missouri lawmakers called for Akin to go, Romney wanted to make his position clear, said the aide, who requested anonymity because the aide was not authorized to publicly discuss Romney's thinking.

Akin provoked the political uproar when he was asked in the KTVI interview whether his general opposition to abortion extends to women who have been raped.

"It seems to me, first of all, from what I understand from doctors, that's really rare. If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down," Akin said.

It's not clear if Akin's campaign will have the financial support to wage a prolonged advertising battle against McCaskill in the expensive St. Louis and Kansas City markets and the Republican-rich area of southwest Missouri.

The campaign arm of the Senate Republicans has already withdrawn $5 million in advertising planned for the Missouri race. The Karl Rove-backed Crossroads organization pulled its ads, too. A fundraiser planned in Washington for next month was called off after all of the dozen GOP senators who had agreed to participate pulled out.

Crossroads President and CEO Steven Law suggested Tuesday that Akin was potentially helping Democrats retain their Senate majority by remaining in the race.

"The stakes in this election are far bigger than any one individual," said Brian Walsh, a spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee. By staying in the race, Akin "is putting at great risk many of the issues that he and others in the Republican Party are fighting for."

Without that financial backing, Akin will need the support of social conservatives, who have formed his political base through a 12-year congressional career.

Noreen McCann, who lives in the same suburban St. Louis area as Akin, said Tuesday that his rape comment hasn't weakened her support for him. McCann expressed frustration that Akin was being publicly flayed for his ill-chosen words while other Democrats ? specifically President Bill Clinton ? have survived scandals that included accusations of sexual impropriety and lies.

Akin "is a man of principle. I trust and respect his integrity and his commitment to defending American values," said McCann, who had passed out Akin fliers on primary election day. "I think he wants to defend all innocent human life. If he misspoke, or it was in the wrong context, that is not a major problem for me."

But other Missouri Republicans are second-guessing their support for Akin.

Steven and Carolyn Sipes, a pair of retired public school teachers who are GOP committee members in southwest Missouri's Christian County, both voted for Akin in the primary. Carolyn is now doing some soul-searching prayer about whether Akin remains the best choice. Her husband believes Republicans will have a better shot of unseating McCaskill without Akin.

"If he decides to stay in, I'll back him to the hilt," Steven Sipes said. But "I think it would be better probably if he did drop out at this point. He's getting a lot of negative publicity."

Akin's campaign released an open letter Tuesday from Jack Willke, former president of the U.S. National Right to Life Committee, stating he was "outraged at how quickly Republican leaders have deserted" Akin.

Akin "remains a strong and courageous pro-life leader ? and awkward wording in one sound bite doesn't negate that," Willke's statement said.

Notice Results Quicker When You Use A Crossfit Timer

Going through a difficult time attempting to maximize your workout? A sensible way to solve this issue is to add interval training into all of your exercise sessions.

The key advantages of interval training workouts

Interval training combines just about any intense physical activity followed by a brief period of low intensity physical exercise, and even a short period of rest.

One of the key interval training benefits is efficiency. Utilizing an interval timer throughout your workout will enable you to stay more focused, keep your rest periods short and your high intensity periods even. This can help you burn calories at a faster pace, and enhance your all round physical endurance.

Using interval training for cardiovascular workouts

Are you presently exercising for the next big running or biking race but have little time to prepare? Combining interval training with your cardiovascular workout will help you prepare more quickly. When utilizing a timer, you are able to take the guess work out of determining rest periods and sprint intervals consistently.

Weightlifting using a timer

It's not hard to become sidetracked and get off track on timing while going through a weightlifting session. Many people guess when trying to figure out the time they have spent resting. Infusing interval training workouts into your session simply by using a timer will keep you motivated and deliver greater results.

Interval training benefits for boxing

Interval training workouts and utilizing a boxing timer is crucial when working out for the next bout. Boxing is an anaerobic sport, with most physical activity coming in short spurts at a level of high intensity. Running and sparring in intervals will improve a boxer's workout, and produce greater results in a shorter period of time.

Interval training ought to be part of a boxer's training program. A boxing timer will help you manage your rest periods and high intensity intervals.

Crossfit training using a timer

Crossfit training is an excellent way to get in shape. Using a crossfit timer is very important when doing your workouts. A timer cuts down the need to constantly look at a wrist watch or clock to determine if the necessary amount of time has lapsed for a particular workout routine. You can even use a crossfit timer to ensure all of the necessary recovery periods are of an equal length.

No-glasses 3-D movie theaters are getting closer to reality

2 hrs.

Devin Coldewey

South Korean researchers have created a new method to show 3-D movies without a need for glasses or extra projectors. The method is similar to existing ones but adds a new twist ? literally.

Having to don ugly and often heavy glasses for a 3-D movie is something no one enjoys, and it's a chore for the theater to keep and clean them as well. So it's no surprise that researchers are scrambling to create a system that can show 3-D without the need for any audience accessories.

There are already methods out there, the most widely?used of which is probably the parallax barrier method. This uses a special sort of sawtooth lens?on the surface of a screen to cause some light to go to a viewer's right eye and some to go to the left. But this requires the light to be coming from behind the screen, rather than behind the audience. Most theaters just aren't set up this way, since it requires far more space per screen.

A new method that escapes this problem is being developed by a team at?Seoul National University, led by Byoungho Lee. It uses a special layer on the screen to circularly polarize the light, giving it a twisted trajectory that can be partially blocked or redirected. With a complementary parallax barrier or pinhole layer, it can send up to four different images back at the audience, depending on how it's configured.

It's promising but still a ways off, the researchers said in a?press release announcing the new technique. The paper, published Monday in the journal Optics Express, describes the method as cost-effective and mechanically quite simple, but still perhaps years from implementation.

Chelsea rolls; Man City rallies

LONDON (AP) -Manchester City fought back after a second-half collapse against Southampton to open its title defense with a 3-2 victory against the Premier League newcomers on Sunday.

Substitutes Rickie Lambert and Steven Davis put a dogged Southampton side 2-1 in front and wipe out Carlos Tevez's opener for City.

But Samir Nasri spared City from an opening weekend upset by scoring an 80th-minute winner following Edin Dzeko's equalizer.

"We showed great character," Nasri told Sky Sports television. "We didn't panic."

Chelsea had no such troubles overcoming Wigan in Sunday's other match.

New signing Eden Hazard made an immediate impact, setting up Branislav Ivanovic's opener and winning the penalty from which Frank Lampard converted to clinch a 2-0 victory.

For City, the new season picked up where the last one ended for pulsating drama at Etihad Stadium. A 3-2 victory in May against Queens Park Rangers - secured in the final seconds - ended City's 44-year title drought.

"It was like the last game of the season, we've started the same and I hope at the end it will be the same result for us," Nasri said.

Although City didn't leave it until stoppage time on Sunday to produce the winner, manager Roberto Mancini hopes every game won't be as tough.

"It is important to have this character, it is better the next time to close the game," Mancini said. "We had too many chances to close the game - we didn't."

City had to cope without Sergio Aguero from the 14th minute after last season's top scorer fell awkwardly following Nathaniel Clyne's challenge. The Argentina striker went to hospital for a scan on his injured knee, but the results won't be known for another two days.

City's fortunes didn't improve after Aguero's injury. Even though Tevez won a penalty two minutes later, after falling to the ground under Jos Hooiveld's challenge, David Silva's tame spot kick was easily saved by Kelvin Davis.

Tevez found the target five minutes before halftime. He was fed through by Nasri and sneaked in front of Joe Fonte before sending the ball into the net at Davis' near post.

City squandered chances to extend its lead after the break, with Gael Clichy sweeping the ball over, and David Silva hitting the crossbar.

City was made to pay for those misses when Lambert, last season's top scorer in the second tier, scored his first topflight goal.

Four minutes after coming off the bench, Lambert seized on confusion in the City defense and Joleon Lescott's missed clearance to side-foot the ball past goalkeeper Joe Hart.

Another substitute also quickly delivered. Steven Davis had been on the pitch only three minutes when he buried the ball into the bottom corner of the net in the 68th after City debutant Jack Rodwell had lost possession to Southampton inside his own half.

But City recovered from its sloppiness, with Dzeko blasting in the equalizer four minutes later.

Nasri secured the three points after Southampton left back Danny Fox inadvertently headed the ball to the France midfielder, who was booked for lifting his jersey in the goal celebration to reveal a t-shirt with the "`Eid Mubarak" greeting to mark the end of Ramadan.

"We deserved to win the game," Mancini said. "They didn't have any chances in the first half and we had four or five incredible chances."

Chelsea made a surging start at Wigan following its tepid league campaign last year in which it finished sixth but made amends by winning the Champions League and FA Cup.

Roberto Di Matteo's side was in front after just two minutes, with Hazard turning Ivan Ramis and slipping the ball through for Ivanovic to race onto and dispatch into the Wigan net.

"(Hazard) was brilliant," Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard said. "It's a young age to come into the Premier League, no matter how good of a player you are."

Ramis was struggling to cope with Hazard and gave away a penalty when he fouled the Belgium international just five minutes after Ivanovic's opener.

Lampard scored from the spot, but the Blues couldn't build on the margin of the victory as Wigan finished with nothing to show for its domination.

"They took their chances really well, they punished us massively," Wigan manager Roberto Martinez said. "It couldn't have been a harder test ... I thought Chelsea were happy to defend well and run the clock down, and I took that as a real compliment to the side."

Manchester United's quest for a 20th title doesn't start until Monday, when former Arsenal striker Robin van Persie will hope to make his debut at Everton.

Everton's neighbor, Liverpool, was on the receiving end of the biggest shock of the opening weekend, with Brendan Rodgers' new side losing 3-0 at West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.

Myla Sinanaj on Kris Humphries: Just Friends... with Possible Benefits!

Myla Sinanaj thinks Kim Kardashian is a cruel bitch.

But the random brunette has no harsh things to say about Kris Humphries, as evidenced today when she was deposed by Kardashian's attorney as part of that estranged's couples ongoing divorce battle.

Insiders tell TMZ that Sinanaj testified to the following under oath:

• She never dated Humphries.
• She was never pregnant with his child.
• She has never received any money from him.

Did she ever have sex with the power forward? Myla's lawyer, Joe Tacopina, reportedly told his client not to answer that question.

Sinanaj also said she never considered a lawsuit against Humphries for telling the FBI she made efforts to blackmail him. Which is all well and good… except she did. Tacopina drafted a 26-page defamation suit on her behalf.

It also came out during the deposition that Myla no longer works at the hotel where she and Kris met earlier this year. We have no idea why not. She's clearly a model employee and human being.
