I see. I have my ways about getting apps for free, Black Market being one of them. You’d be surprised how many end users would throw down $15 for a LAUNCHER! I just suggested Regina Launcher because the UI is a little bit different (mainly transitions) than ADW or LP. I use ADW EX myself.
$15 is steep, they used to have a nice free one on windows mobile. I wonder why they thought $15 was a good price. I tried that Regina right now, didn’t like it. The screen transition was too slow not smooth, like you swiped, then it showed the press on screen, then the screen changed.
I did like how it showed your app drawer in 3D though, that was the only thing I liked about it.
Back to Launcher Pro. LOL
Bought a Galaxy SII, thanks for recommending it. I also noticed that everyone has the option to post with Tapatalk without that ‘Sent from my XX-XXX using Tapatalk’ message, but…
But what? Yout want it, or want to get rid of it? Just open up Tapatalk > Menu > Settings > Tapatalk signature should be the first selection. You can edit it however you like.
is there a free alternative to tapatalk? i don’t feel like trying to figure out how to put money on my korean android account.
Unfortunately, I don’t think so. Virtually all vBulletin forums, with the exception of a few, have the Tapatalk plugin featured on them. I don’t know if it’s a per-site basis, but I know it’s annoying as fuck every time I used to visit a forum through my phone’s browser to be greeted by the “This forum is compatible with Tapatalk” BS. I caved…and downloaded the program for free, :lol:
After a long run with an HTC Mogul, I got a Droid phone. I really can’t compare it because the Mogul was hot shit at the time (cable guys use them here still, it what you sign when they do a work order), and my Droid is an Ascend which is lower end.
Now I expected that some common filetypes wouldn’t be supported on Android, but I’m surprised that it find most everything that was in the SD card of my WM6 phone will work/show fine, it even shows the icons for the .CAB’s.
I do have one huge complaint; wallpapers suck. I cant just take any random pic I have and use it as wallpaper with an automatic resize. Pretty gay, but I have a great pic (was the also the wallpaper for my Mogul.)
Oh and I found a great program, lets you see your phone on your PC and control it. Good if you have a cracked screen. There a version for Android and Windows Mobile 6, called Mobiler. Used it to get all the info from my Mogul, and it works perfectly. I havent used the Android version, but my experience with the WM version was great.
Holy shit…finally got to play with a SG2 and its pretty badass…
I was waiting for the iPhone announcement to see what platform/hardware I would go with…just trying to decide if I should get the SG2 now or wait for the Nexus Prime announcement coming next week.
…not sure if I want a phone with a curved screen? OR if the prime will be “that much better” than the SG2.
Do we even know the specs of the Prime? I’m definitely not digging the curvature of that screen.

…just speculation however, it seems reasonable. I guess we’ll find out for sure Oct. 11th. Some people were saying the Prime will be a Verizon exclusive…which makes no sense since they already have the Bionic.
Prime will also have exclusive ICS OS for a little bit at least.
I’m hoping my phone will see a port of ICS, but seeing as it’s argueably one of the best AOSP dual core phones (LG G2X), it more than likely will.
So does anyone believe Kindle Fire’s claim of 8 hours reading, 6 hours video based on the battery life of other android devices? Think they can pull it off?
I don’t know. The original Kindle was so toned down as far as specs, obviously it had the nice battery life because of that. It all depends on how it handles processes, but seeing that this is a full Android OS with a Kindle Fire UI, it wouldn’t differ any.
I’ll have to see it to believe it.
I purchased Tapatalk from market, and got it setup with my SRK account, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to access my PMs. Exactly what do I need to do, what do I need to press or long-press to get to my PMs on SRK?
Using stock, original, unrooted OS on an Xperia Play.
Honestly, I’ve had that problem also with Tapatalk. I have to resort to using the browser in order to access PMs, which is slow because it loads the site in full HTML.
Samsung Nexus Prime announcement today-ish!?
…looks pretty sick, specs still unofficial. Hmmm
Problem is it’s a Samsung phone. Hardware is always great, but they have a habit of abandoning devices rather than updating the firmware, trying to go the Apple route of making you buy a new phone every year for the latest firmware.
Anyone on T-Mobile, wait a couple of months before jumping on the Amaze. I’m hearing users have been having issues with it. And there is no wi-fi calling option yet, a T-Mo rep told me it’ll be coming in an update soon.

I’m definitely picking put he Galaxy Nexus instead of going with a WP7 phone. 
Who’s excited to see shitty Moto BLUR or HTC Sense slapped onto Android 4.0? :mad: :nunchuck:
…damn it, I may have to reverse my stance on Sammy phones. Since this is a flagship phone, it’s pretty much guaranteed to get updates, the Nexus One still gets them.
Just watched the 1 hour presentation, can’t wait to get this ported.
