[QUOTE=Gulen;44924906]Sounds cool, but I don't know if it's worth $1...[/QUOTE] Yeah, who does he think he is? If anything, he should GIVE US MONEY for playing the damn game!
Give us a $1 discount.
I bought it because I'm nice and feel you should be rewarded for your time and effort
the amount of people bitching and moaning that the G3 doesn't have an 805 processor is sad
[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;44925310]I bought it because I'm nice and feel you should be rewarded for your time and effort[/QUOTE] Yeah, I did too. It seems like it doesn't show the active 3x3 all the time, though.
[QUOTE=Seiteki;44911556]What do you guys think would be a good price to sell my Nexus 7 (2012) for? I've still got the original packaging, as well as a leather case and stylus.[/QUOTE] i'd buy that tho, what's the condition?
[QUOTE=Hubber the 1st;44925732]i'd buy that tho, what's the condition?[/QUOTE] Like new. I'm incredibly meticulous about caring for devices. I still have the original box and all.
But tic tac toe is easily solvable if you just go for the corner, so...
[QUOTE=Scot;44925347]the amount of people bitching and moaning that the G3 doesn't have an 805 processor is sad[/QUOTE] Isn't the difference between the 800 and 805 pretty minimal? People need to stop looking at specs and stop concentrating on the spec war, but look at the functionality of the phone.

People need to stop looking at specs and stop concentrating on the spec war, but look at the functionality of the phone.[/QUOTE] Literally unnoticeable unless you do high-end gaming all the time on your phone, and even then, most of the games that push the hardware to the limit are Shield/Tegra exclusive
So what does Omni offer, exactly, compared to other ROMs? I still haven't been able to figure it out. All I know about it is 'multiwindow' (which isn't even stable yet?) and OmniSwitch.
I don't care about better processing power at this point, all I want is a bigger battery on my phone goddamnit!
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;44925586](useless) pixels[/QUOTE] Oh please this is the whole "You can't see past 60 fps" argument all over again. Some people do notice a difference, this phone is for those people. If you think they're useless, then that's your opinion

If you think they're useless, then that's your opinion[/QUOTE] They [I]are[/I] useless. This isn't as objective as the 60 FPS thing...There's a point where the pixel density is so high that it's diminishing returns. You get a minute, nigh impossible to see improvement in screen quality for a relatively large hit to performance and power consumption. It's not worth it.
[QUOTE=Gulen;44925672]Yeah, I did too. It seems like it doesn't show the active 3x3 all the time, though.[/QUOTE] When you cant make a move in the particular 3x3 you can move anywhere, thats why it doesnt show it. Expect lots of updates to introduce AI, an in-game tutorial and several themes
I feel 5 inch phones should just stay at 1080P and tablets like nexus 7 should use 2560P.
[QUOTE=Cree8ive;44926376]I don't care about better processing power at this point, all I want is a bigger battery on my phone goddamnit![/QUOTE] I want more than 5 hours of screen on time please.
[QUOTE=Speedfalcon;44924668]Hey peeps. I just published my first app on Play. It is a Tic-Tac-Toe variant played on a 3x3 board, where each cell is another 3x3 game. You must win a cell in order to convert it into a bigger 3x3 piece. The cell you make your next move in is determined by the previous player's move.[/QUOTE] I invented this when I was a kid send me 100% of all profits thanks
[QUOTE=bitches;44920616]There was an old thread for android games, long buried. Through it I found N64droid and BT Controller, from its OP. Does anyone here happen to know how to configure the two to work together? It's supposedly possible. I've got a phone and a tablet and I'd love to make good use of them.[/QUOTE] It turns out I was supposed to use N64oid's feature for Bluetooth controllers, coupled with BT Controller app making the phone into the controller. The problem is, Android 4.2 changed lots of how bluetooth works, and N64oid's creator had no idea/impossible to fix this: Android 4.2+ automatically handles BT connections on its own if the device is recognized as a HID (human input device), such as phones. This means Android hogs the BT connection for its own purposes, not releasing it for N64oid or any other app to use. If anyone has advice, I'd be quite thankful. [editline]28th May 2014[/editline] would rooting give me solutions??
I'm just guessing, but rooting the Nexus 5 must be easy, no? It seems to be the case that the more popular a phone is, the easier the rooting process is.
[QUOTE=Seiteki;44930008]I'm just guessing, but rooting the Nexus 5 must be easy, no? It seems to be the case that the more popular a phone is, the easier the rooting process is.[/QUOTE] Rooting the N5 is dead easy because it's a Nexus, there's nothing stopping you unlike on some phones If you want to go the manual way, you do it with 3 commands in CMD, or you can download a program that automates everything into a single click [editline]28th May 2014[/editline] Although it's a good idea to do it manually, since you can install a custom recovery like TWRP, and it teaches you how to flash and install things [editline]28th May 2014[/editline] [url]http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/[/url] That's a neat tool to root+install recovery, it can even unroot and relock the phone if you need to RMA it

[QUOTE=Seiteki;44930140]I take it I can do a full backup, so I can revert right back to what my phone was like prior to rooting?[/QUOTE] Unlocking your phone resets your phone for security reasons, and you can't really back anything up without Root/Recovery, so you'll only be able to restore to factory default [editline]28th May 2014[/editline] Once you've put a custom recovery on though, you can take full backups of the entire phone and revert to those in case you fuck anything up
Seems to be going fine, running a full device backup before unlocking and all that.
Might be different with the Toolkit then, I've never tried it :v:
[QUOTE=kaze4159;44930391]Might be different with the Toolkit then, I've never tried it :v:[/QUOTE] Yeah, it uses the built-in backup function.
the built in backup feature isn't as good as TB, so you may not have a 100% backuo of everything in your third party apps, but it's your best bet if you're unrooted.
There really wasn't much I wanted backed up in the first place, since I have only had this phone for a week now.
What do you guys think of the BLU Life Pure or any BLU product for that matter? I want to upgrade from my Galaxy S 1 that was a hand-me-down that has a broken button that wigs out and HORRIBLE battery life. I was looking at plans of my own so I could get a phone cheap with a contract and get off my parents plan but having a minimum wage job and school expenses I just can't afford it in the long term. So after looking around I came across the BLU phones. They're cheap, decent specs, unlocked and seem to have an alright reputation. So what do you guys think?
I know this is the Android thread and not the Google thread but why can't Google Play Music perform volume levelling on the tracks uploaded from your personal library? It makes it impossible to use GPM as your main method of syncing tracks to your device, unless you just don't use the personal library feature at all and build all your playlists from the All Access selection. I don't really want to permanently change the volume on all my original files either.
