I know that this would just be a useless application with no purpose at all, but you have to admit it would be really cool! There are tons of applications on the web for the iPH*** like iBEER, and iMUNCHIES and so forth. There useless but really cool party tricks. It doesn't seem like it would be hard to make it for windows mobile. Does anyone have any Idea how this works, or if it is possible? Anyone interested or willing to give it a shot?
If you don't know what this is just go to youtube.com and type in iBEER , iMILK, iMUNCHIES , my personal favorite iBUG, or iWATER
THERE EXTREMELY COOL PARTY TRICKS!!!
THE GIRLS!!!
OH YEH, I forgot the girls! CHECK OUT iWASH also. I take back my previous statement, this is by far the cooles!!!! CHECK THEM OUT and someone figure this out please!!!
Aren't these just videos and not actual programs?
Ive been looking for something to use as a s2u2 background for months but luck
MAYBE
They may be just vids, Im not sure. But if so, how are the activated so fast, & no outline of another program!!!!!!!!!!

they use the iphones built in accelerometer to tilt the liquid in the screen. the same thing could be done with a video but you'd have to time it
Actually they don't. They are for the most part nothing more than videos. Trust me. A friend had them on his iPhone, gave them to me and I had them playing on my 8525 for a few weeks when I was using an iPhone theme. I set a hardware button to launch coreplayer with the chosen video as the last played item in full screen on start.
The hardest part was converting the video format and getting the screen size and orientation correct.

I have a friend who had a water themed one and it poured out when he tilted the phone, this could only be due to an accelerometer because it never just poured after a certain time limit only after he tilted it, i have seen others that are videos though

So you have them? please post it.
I opened up market today, hit the tablet section, and I was so excited as a ton of apps showed up. but, then i realized that the same 20 apps just kept repeating.
Any one else see that?
Ha yes....same with me. I had checked earlier so when I checked this afternoon and saw tons I was very excited. That is, until I looked closer

I see the same thing but at least there's 4 more apps on the list!
What a sick, sick joke, Google.
It just keeps scrolling ad infinitum!
It'll pick up soon enough. A lot of apps already on the market, even though they should work fine on honeycomb, will have things like "android.hardware.telephony" features enabled, which will by default hide it in the market from honeycomb tablets (which lack telephony). It's a shame that the devices were released so soon after the Honeycomb API was released, but give the devs a week or so to test and tweak and a lot more should pop up once the they've amended their manifests. I quite like how Android is the complete opposite to Apple when it comes to launches, but I can see how it could be annoying .
There's definitely a few new apps in that list, trust me

it just got updated with a list of feature. limited atm, but it's growing
It was a glitch and quickly patched. However, I had that glitch a few days go, not today.
Google is tweaking the Market app almost everyday it appears.
Spare parts question
I have a Tab and I use an app called Spare Parts that resizes (scales) phone apps to work on the Tab. Have you tried it on the Xoom?
For me the list was at least 40% longer. I installed like 7 or 8 new things. I am tempted to try the updated Thumbit Keyboard, but I am unsure. I am cheap and even 2$ would be terrible to waste.
that keyboard is awesome. You shouldn't regret it.
Tell me if anyone else notices this. Whenever you are searching apps in the market and click on an app, and then you go back it puts you all the way back up to the very top of the app list forcing you to start all the way from the beginning all over again! When you hit back it should bring you back to where you left off instead of starting all over at the top of the list. And it does it every single time too! Its annoying! Especially when you are just looking around at apps to download, you might get very far down on the list and then... BAM! You will have to start over when you click an app to view more info about it. Who feels the pain on that? This needs a fix ASAP!

I went and bought it. It's really just like $1.67 but I figured it would hold me over till SwiftKey released their tablet version (it's in BETA currently).
...this is actually really nice. Glad I found it, very easy vs. the default keyboard. It has a settings option for what screen size you have, just pick 10in and it adjusts accordingly...very happy with my purchase.

I bought it too. It gets the job done. I find that it seems to repeat my letters alot so I have to type at a steady pace. We'll see how it works out. I feel like it's designed for smaller fingers/hands than mine.
I am a swiftkey guy so I can't wait until they release it
I bought Thumbit too. I like having multiple keyboards to choose from. Sometimes, I'm at table and the stock keyboard works well. Sometimes, I'm holding it in one hand with a stylus in the other and the slideIt keyboard works well. i use thumbit if i'm sitting on the couch holding it in two hands. All worth it.
I am waiting for swype though.
My biggest problem with non-stock keyboards is that the windows doesn't show the rest of the page, but rather an input window of sorts. That is, if i'm entering information on a webpage, using the stock keyboard, I can still see the rest of the page and navigate around it, but using anything else, I can't./

I see 32 apps none repeated.
Woke up to 11 new apps in the Tablet section of the market this morning.
Oddly enough, I feel like a couple of them don't belong there yet.
Evernote, which actually isn't tablet optimized (small icons, no multiple fragments for easier navigation, etc), but works.
and Bonsai Blast, which also works but looks like crap because it's just stretched and not in HD for the tablet.
I'm a bit confused here, but it seems like a pretty major issue, and I didn't see anything about it when using the search functionality. I'm currently using CM7 on my new rooted NC.
Right now when using apps like Engadget Mobile and many other games, the screen only displays a small window where the app resides.
Is this normal behavior? I see apps like Angry Birds, Opera Mobile and DoubleTwist which all scale properly to the full screen size.
Is there an option that I'm missing somewhere? This seems a bit of a deal breaker to me if apps can't be used in full screen.
Under Spare Parts in the app drawer, uncheck Compatibility Mode on the bottom, reboot. If it is not checked, check and then uncheck it, then reboot.
Oh man, you've completely made my day!
I kept searching around in the CM settings and knew it had to be in there.
Apparently I need to take a deep breath and read some more.
Cheers mate, I'm really loving the NC and the community here. Much more laid back compared to the EVO guys!
Yeah, NC people are kind of awesome
My g/f has a gtablet, and it's pretty nuts over there too.
NC FTW!
!!! I'd always just assumed it was a issue we'd have to deal with on the NC. So glad to see that something can be done to fix the scaling!
Here we can rant about our beautiful new smartphones to hopefully relieve some stress. Sound good? I'll begin.
For starters, I hate the framrate issues that occur too often for a phone with 2GBs of RAM! Clearing a recent app, hitting the home button, or opening up messages always gives me an annoying st-stutt-ter that simply should'nt be ther. I also hate that it is impossible to access your internal storage from a Mac or Linux based computer? Really? I can plug a cheap $10 mp3 device from the 1930's, drag and drop some music and be good to go. Also, what is up with pop-up? pop-out? play?! Why can it only be used (for my knowledge) with videos that are saved onto the phone?! AND how can I put them on the phone with my Mac?! URGH, I can choose between 16, 32, or 64 GBs BUT I still need an SD card to put basic media on my phone? I also don't like how you can't change the shortcuts on the lockscreen, the phone has 8 different main colors between TouchWiz, ICS, and the Nature UX, I originally made this thread on my phone but got a text and tried to go back into Chrome and my text disappeared, AND how they took the AutoText? feature out of TouchWiz (when you can make your phone automatically substitute "sm" into a smiley face or whatever else you want to configure AKA the thing I liked most about TouchWiz). WOW, *takes a deep breath* I feel better. What would you like to rant about?!
P.S. I LOOOOVVVVEEEE my phone though, it just has some slightly annoying kinks (just like every other phone).

I know! This is such a huge letdown. I went into a T-Mobile store today to test it out and was disappointed because I wanted to watch youtube videos while I multitask. In another thread, a person said it is possible use pop-up play with streaming online videos as long as you play with a stock video player.
Have you tried that?

I have not ever been given the choice to what player I would like to use except for once on a facebook video someone uploaded and it DID work but other than that it does not allow me to use this on YouTube videos. :/ maybe someone could help? I can try to mess with YouTube real quick.
Update: nope, still couldn't get it to work and I tried both the mobile sight and the youtube app. Different settings, longclick on the video etc. Oh wells
I love the feel of the phone, the battery life, the WiFi speeds, the display, and the speed, but...
The noise on the headphone jack is distracting and awful. Like, making me wish I had bought the Galaxy Nexus bad.
The Bluetooth range for my headsets appears to be about half that of my Vibrant. I used to be able to leave my phone on the counter and wander from room to room, but now it needs to be in my pocket. (To be fair, I haven't tried it with Power Saving off yet.)
How do I.....
Remove labels under the icons on the home screens?
Remove the page indicator?
Reorder bookmarks and get the reorder to stick in the stock browser?
I want to stick with TouchWiz and stay close to stock for now. I understand other launchers can do what I want, but I don't want to change for now.
Thanks!

I'm not aware of any TouchWiz settings that are user-configurable. (I don't want to discount Samsung making configurable options that could be set with the installation of a configuration program.)
Out of curiosity, what do you like about the TouchWiz launcher that you don't want to give up?

I haven't tried dragging and dropping mp3 files directly onto the phone yet but I did try the Samsung Kies software and it worked fine.
Anyone notice the phone getting warmer than usual, not hot but just enough to become uncomfortable, i am coming from a skyrocket and did not have the same issue, i thought the s4 was supposed to run cooler however the lower half of the phone seems to get warm doing very light browsing and sometimes doing nothing at all.

Dragging and dropping works fine on a Windows machine. Android uses the long-standardized MTP protocol on USB but it seems little work went into support because only the Zune really used it. (Even on Windows, there are a few quirks.)
It's an awesome protocol for what it does and it fits nicely with Google's new unified partition model (you like getting upgrades for your phone and not managing storage space, right?), but this is the proverbial broken egg to make that nice Android omelet.

My phone gets warm in bright areas almost certainly as a result of the screen power usage. Is the phone plugged in? It gets warm on the lower half while charging, too.

It's kinda silly, but I like the stock clock and weather on the home screen. I also like some of the widgets, especially the calender. I have purchased several alternative in the past that I could use, but the calender is a biggie for me. I have tried many of them and none of them quite hit the mark, for me anyway.
I have tried many launchers. Go Launcher is the only one I have not played with in depth. I may give it a try tonight. I really like ADWex but the lack of a nice calender bothers me. I used smooth calender with it, but I really like the TouchWiz calender.
Always open to ideas. Thanks.
yea most phones get warm when plugged in but this one seems to be getting warm while not on the charger and also while not being strained too much at all. Maybe i got a lemon but id like to hear other owners experiences. I will be exchanging it regardless but when you pay this much stupid issues like that should be resolved before launch.

He could have gotten it from work for all we know. The point is, there's an issue with the phone and mac compatibility that he pointed out. It's no help to lulz at him for using a nice computer.
I, for one, would be a bit concerned as well.

Go to android.com/filetransfer/ and download the app. Open the app, then connect your phone to your mac. Bring down the notification bar and click on the USB connection. Change it to connect as camera and it will work. You'll then have access to the internal filesystem as well as the sd card.

this.
it does annoy me that this phone gets warm so easily.
the flip side to that, is it is very thin towards the bottom, the heat has to escape some type of way tho. It is a powerful core in a very thin body.

Hi,
So Google done gone and broke YouTube in the latest version. The full screen button is now gone when you dock your transformer (any version).
Perhaps someone has a link to the old version they can post....I stupidly had YouTube set to auto update.....
Plus I hate the new interface. It's like it was created for the mentally deficient and blind senior citizens....

YouTube Lags
Hi guys,
i have another problem with the new YouTube app but i didn't want to make a new thread.
Everytime i watch videos in higher quality and in the video are fast movements, it jumps forward for 1 or 2 seconds. I have the impression, that my transformer handles the video to slow, because if i watch films where is no real action, everything is fine.
I hope you understand me and sorry for my bad school english.
Edit: their is a problem with the framerate but i don't know what to do.

Lol yes. Unfortunately that is the case.
Same issue here, no full screen button when docked.
Simply resolved: Go to settings, apps, find the youtube app and uninstall updates. Older version looks MUCH nicer with that Wall!!
New version does show slight improvement in video playback speed though, although could be placebo...
