Dexcom G5 Starter Guide

Hey all,

I'm a long-time T1 diabetic that's finally having his childhood dreams of being a cyborg come true: I'm finally get a CGM (Dexcom G5)! With that being said, I've put in an order for Skintac and Opsite due to recommendations on this site. Does anyone have any further recommendations, tips, and/or tricks? I'd prefer to learn from your experiences instead of my mistakes, if possible.

In addition, anyone have any tips / tricks for setting up the Dexcom G5 on Android? I've heard rumblings of Xdrip+, but wasn't sure if there was a guide that anyone could suggest. The more information, the better. I'm expecting to have it arrive on Tuesday, and I'd like to start using it right away!
