Android Thread v. They forgot to frost Android 1.5 - Hardware & Software

I played it loads on my iPod Touch and it was great.

I think my phone looks Deus Exxy enough. What do you guys think? [url]http://www.imgur.com/WTpe55W.jpeg[/url]

[QUOTE=Fausty;40232423]I think my phone looks Deus Exxy enough. What do you guys think? [url]http://www.imgur.com/WTpe55W.jpeg[/url][/QUOTE] That battery looks awful

It's either that one, a blue one, or nothing. You cant change the color in AOKP

[QUOTE=Fausty;40232978]It's either that one, a blue one, or nothing. You cant change the color in AOKP[/QUOTE] Turn off the percentage and it'd help

Let's see how much more juice can I squeeze out of the N4 battery without disabling and crippling features (on motley's kernel + some custom scripts from /r/Nexus4).

Anyway to install ROMs quicker without having to back up 13 gb of data? For example changing from CM to ParanoidAndroid would cause all my data dissapear?

[QUOTE=Siemz;40233391]1 hour on screen time....[/QUOTE] Oh come on, it's not that bad at all, even on stock. This is not the Galaxy Nexus :v:

[QUOTE=iCole;40233462]Oh come on, it's not that bad at all, even on stock. This is not the Galaxy Nexus :v:[/QUOTE] I've seen someone just out of the box after installing all and charging to 100% with 5 hour screen time, dont know... good luck :tinfoil:

my battery is being utter shit now

what's the best tablet texting app preferably one that doesn't look like shit

Mighty Text [url]https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mightytext.tablet&hl=en[/url]

You know Android is a pretty solid OS. The only thing that iOS does better than android is the refined store which has some form of quality assurance. Google Play is such messy garbage.

[QUOTE=garychencool;40234071]android has more rogue apps and shit all over the play store, google is cleaning it up and such but yeah.[/QUOTE] I seriously wouldn't mind if they lock google play down a bit at the cost of not getting shit items on the store [editline]10th April 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=iCole;40234084]oh no what have you started, now there'll be an influx of 10 people telling you how iOS does this better and that better and how android needs to be rewritten and..[/QUOTE] Um I'm not bashing on android, in fact I wouldn't touch iOS with a ten foot pole. I just think the store is absolute garbage and I'm not new to android at all. I was just sharing my opinion over the shittyness of the store.

[QUOTE=Cowabanga;40234063]You know Android is a pretty solid OS. The only thing that iOS does better than android is the refined store which has some form of quality assurance.

i like mightytext but i don't like some of the design things it does

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;40234138]Doesn't bother me at all really, I can find anything I need and don't even come across that much shit. What iOS definitely DOES do better is battery life.[/QUOTE] Dear christ don't you remind me of Android's crap battery life management.

is anyone a developer we can make a cloud sms app together

[QUOTE=Nalty;40234154]is anyone a developer we can make a cloud sms app together[/QUOTE] there has been a few of those going on in /r/android

also why is Chrome Beta unsearchable in Play Store itself, but Google finds it? ON the Play Store?

[QUOTE=iCole;40234206]also why is Chrome Beta unsearchable in Play Store itself, but Google finds it? ON the Play Store?[/QUOTE] I know right, I was never able to find it until I google'd it.

[QUOTE=garychencool;40234205]there has been a few of those going on in /r/android[/QUOTE] they're all not very polished

[QUOTE=Nalty;40234154]is anyone a developer we can make a cloud sms app together[/QUOTE] tablet sms is an app... you need to be on the same network as your phone, though. If you're on verizon, the verizon messaging app isn't bad. [editline]10th April 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=garychencool;40234210]I know right, I was never able to find it until I google'd it.[/QUOTE] They don't want the beta just out there obviously, because every fucktard in the universe will download it. If you make it where you have to do some work to find it, you'll vet beta testers automatically. Only people who care enough (and likely nerds themselves) will find it.

do most developers have a "good enough" approach to making android apps? [editline]10th April 2013[/editline] [url=http://i.imgur.com/cyhtx95.jpg]me bitching about shit[/url]

[QUOTE=Nalty;40234464] [url=http://i.imgur.com/cyhtx95.jpg]me bitching about shit[/url][/QUOTE] well done
