Bought Soundhound so far. The only useful app out of them.

Am I really the only one here to own sk17a

I'm thinking about why google does this and the only thing that makes sense to me is that they are trying to break the buy barrier for many people. Saw it for myself, I never got to register my credit card and thus never even thought of buying anything and now that I have I find myself pondering with other, non sale apps. Clever.

Swiftkeys predictions are shit for me.

[QUOTE=Clementine;33714265]50 texts a month...what[/QUOTE] I never text. And i mean never. I only used up like 7 and it's been 15 days.

[QUOTE=Thund3rdome;33719195]Swiftkeys predictions are shit for me.[/QUOTE] Have you been using it for like, a week or so? It takes a while to learn your style.

[QUOTE=roflcakes;33719637]Have you been using it for like, a week or so? It takes a while to learn your style.[/QUOTE] About 2-3 weeks I'd say. Hate the spacebar location as well, keep pressing dot and question mark

I just found info about a local root exploit in Android 1.X and 2.X, which would allow rooting by using an app instead of USB debugging, this was released back in Feb but I dont think anything actually uses it I'm looking if its applicable, if so I'm gonna try making an app to do it [editline]14th December 2011[/editline] If I get this to work, would anyone use it? I would just slap a few ads on it and release it on Android Market

[release] Google’s response to Siri is codenamed Majel, could be released by end of year I wrote about Google’s response to Apple’s Siri voice assistant several months ago and over the last couple weeks I received further details about the secret project. For starters it is codenamed Majel, which comes from Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, better known as the voice of the Federation Computer from Star Trek. Majel is an evolution of Google’s Voice Actions that is currently available on most Android phones with the addition of natural language processing. Where Voice Actions required you to issue specific commands like “send text to…” or “navigate to…”, Majel will allow you to perform actions in your natural language similar to how Siri functions. Speaking of actions, it sounds like only Google search queries will be included with the initial release, that could come as soon as this year. I say this year because I’ve heard that engineers at Google X are working around the clock on finishing the first release and the NYTimes previously reported that one product would be released by Google X this year. December if nearly half over, so a January or February release might be more realistic. Other more advanced features like controlling phone actions and applications with natural language commands are expected to come later. Google’s Matias Duarte had previously given hints about the future of Android’s voice actions in an interview with Slashgear. Matias said, “Our approach is more like Star Trek, right, starship Enterprise; every piece of computing surface, everything is voice-aware. It’s not that there’s a personality, it doesn’t have a name, it’s just Computer.” I had previously speculated that Google’s approach might actually include some kind of animated avatar, but it appears I was way off on that one. However, we still expect greatly enhanced computer voices that sound more human and fluid, thanks to Google’s acquisition of Phonetic Arts, which occurred at the tail end of 2010. Hopefully more concrete details will leak out soon. People smarter than I will read this article and I’m sure they will be able to dig up additional iformation. In the mean time, enjoy Data talking with Computer in the video below.[/release] [url]http://androidandme.com/2011/12/news/googles-response-to-siri-is-codenamed-majel-could-be-released-by-end-of-year/[/url] Can't fucking wait!

Lawsuits in 3, 2, 1...

Except samsung has something similar... The voice commands, although it doesn't respond like siri it will do alot of common tasks.

Also doesn't 1clickroot have an app or something that does similar? Plus you'd also be targeting a dwindling user base. Do it, but I wouldn't expect to make a killing.

[QUOTE=Khaos-23;33716475]So I lost my Nexus S on a bus a few days ago. Shit sucks. First thing I'm doing when I get my new phone is installing a tracking app. I think I'll get the Galaxy SII, Don't know about the Galaxy Nexus, too expensive.[/QUOTE] Install a tracking app via the android market web client? Surely you can track it that way?

[QUOTE=Tobba;33722909]It would be permanent, not expecting to make a killing either, and according to the finders of the exploit it works on 1.X and 2.X[/QUOTE] Don't go bricking your phone again, Tobba

You could find an approximate location where the phone is, but then you'd have to go and kill everyone in that radius and search their bodies to find it. edit: What I just wrote counts if the location shows it's in an appartment complex or so..
