Any Aria users that have tablets too?

I know this is an Aria forum, but I have a tablet question. Are there any Aria/Liberty/Gratis/Intruder users in this forum that also use Android tablets? We are considering gifting one and wonder how they perform in terms of reliability. A friend has the Coby one and gets force closes often and AppsLib sucks.
My last Intruder was a Grumman A-6E.

Funny... I was searching on ebay for one of those a minute ago. I believe they operate reliably. But I would deffinitely go with one that runs Froyo, less chances of finding bugs.

I am using my Gtab to send tis, as my Aria Tethers me to a connection here in the mountains of the Poconos. Its ony at EDGE speeds, but it works for now. I love my GTAB. The hardware is impressive, save one item. Its downfall is the LCD screen. It has bad viewing angles in Portrait mode. Other than that, I have since turned my laptop on twice in the last two weeks since I got the Tablet.

I have a GTAB too. The thing is junk out of the box but killer after switching to a different Rom. Look in the G Tablet forum on here and do some research. I like it because I'm already familiar with the Android system and how it works.

This is exactly why I went with the gTab. Plus the cpu makes the gTab a device that will be around for a while longer than most portable devices running Android

I have a Coby (rooted with gapps and the new android market installed).. It is a little slower than what I'm use to, but i have not have many force close issues or than with ADW themes..

What did you guys pay for your G-Tabs? $400? Did you get it locally or from Amazon?
I'm pretty interested in it, but with all the newly-announced tablets at CES, I'm wondering if I should hold off.

I'm going to wait for a suitable htc tablet, like the so called "htc scribe"
I like htc

I did get it locally, but I only paid 319.99. Heh, I was able to negotiate the sears rep at the store down from 400 by telling him I was just going to buy it online and pick it up since I could get it for 380. He then did some numbers thing and viola! It was on m receipt for 320

i would get the Nook Color, but i'd like to have camera and GPS for road trips. would be nice to play around with Google Maps and navigation on a tablet.

I was all set to buy a Nook Color for rooting, then a friend on another forum told me that he had returned his because the edges of the screen were not sensitive to touch at all. That worries me... you had any issues with that anup?

Sorry for the late reply... I don't have problems at all with touchscreen unitl my hands get sweaty (I know it's gross). When that happens the screen becomes unresponsive and I have to lock and unlock the screen. Then it's all better!

I ended up getting a Nook color yesterday. Had it rooted within 30 minutes. I'm using Zeam as my launcher and I really like it. This Nook has to be the best Android tab for the money if you ask me.

With the stupid att data limit, i have come close to going over with my tablet.

I am glad you got the nook color... I think that for 250$ it is the most sensable choice. Let me know how you like it!

WIME Nano Smartwatch, looks nice

Interesting Android smartwatch here. It can actually be used as a standalone phone, bands are GSM/GPRS Quad Band:GSM 850/900/DCS 1800/PCS 1900 MHZ (can this be used on AT&T?).
What I'm not seeing is if it can be used as a dialer for your phone, so you can just leave it in your pocket and make and receive calls like the Gear.
What do you guys think? I'm tempted to get it just to play around with.

Doing some further reading, yes you can initiate a call to your phone with it, woot! It also has music over bluetooth and local storage. It looks like it has no speaker/mic so you have to use a headset with it, boo, but that's ok.

D'oh. I missed it, I went straight down to the pictures. Either that or the page didn't load completely the first time. Either way, thank you!
That's not a bad price point at all... maybe a mini server or media player...

Feature phone software, bleh.
Although I guess for 100 bucks you can't expect it to run Android.
Edit: Hmm, just noticed no where does it say there's a speaker built in...guess you have to use a headset to use it as a phone.
Also only compatible with Android 2.3-4.0. Doesn't say it works with newer.

Strange, I was also surprised by that 4.0 rather then 4.x reference. And I think you are right about headphone 3.5mm jack as the only way to listen to the music. Would have been great if they would include a camera in there.

Is it ok to say that it looks kinda...ugly?

Haha, first thing that crossed my mind when i saw it.
Dunno why but personally i find most smart watches just tend to look either dull, or just plain awful. Maybe it's because of the space they have to work with? Dunno :/

You guys realize it's a phone? It might be nice to have as a backup phone, or if I just want a tiny phone. It doesn't run apps, but I never had much use for apps on a 1.5" screen.
It's interesting, I may grab one just to play around with. It seems to have AT&T bands. I don't plan on using it like a watch though, it's too ugly like that. I'd just stick it in my pocket or clip it on.

We're fully aware. It's just between recent offerings like the Omate Truesmart and previous offerings like every chinese watch phone out there, this one seems like too little too late to really make sense right now.
If you want a cheap feature-phone watch check out what's available to get a style you like. This one is pretty big and ugly for what it does.

So I got one and got to say this thing is a perfect companion for a phone at work. Built in mic allows you to answer on your wrist and be like I'll call you back it also has Bluetooth audio out and wireless headset support. Weird thing is contacts and messages won't work without a sim has to have one active or not I'm on Verizon so its pointless to try lucky I had art laying around and it vibrates!! This thing is sweet to be cheap!!!

From the watch description:
Smart Sync Function: Can sync with smart phone, downloading phonebook and call history (iOS 4.0+ and Android 2.3+) to the device. When using Android 2.3+ OS, download and install the WiMe NanoSmart APK on the Android device and the NanoSmart will sync with the Android device (Google calendar events, new Gmail notification, call history, phonebook, sent/received SMS).
Have you tried to install WiMe NanoSmart?

I'm on 4.3 AOKP linario I can't say its bougus but the contacts sync but....... With out each and every number having the country code in it it refuses to call or message weird right? Gmail hasn't worked or calendar. I refuse to downgrade for it. I use this to get away with texting and calling at work via mini Bluetooth headset and a beanie lol.

Just wish it wasn't $350 for a 1st gen device in a soon to be crowded and lower priced market. I already have a MetaWatch Frame ($200), and would rather wait for Google to release something that I know will be supported for a while then drop the money on something that may or may not be getting new and improved apps a year from now. That being said, the Mirasol screen looks awesome and I like the overall look and features of the watch. For $250 I would have already pre ordered it, $350 is overpriced.

I hear what you're saying about smart watches in general are coming out overpriced but I believe that the Toq is comparable due to the added wireless charger that makes up for the additional cost. That is a feature which none of the others have at this time anyway. And believe me I am not trying to justify their initial high costs because I too think all of the smart watches in general should start at a lower cost margin than what they have started with when they first came out.

This watch is already available for purchase at USD399, anybody here getting it? The deal breaker with this watch is that it has no Ingress Protection (IP) rating. Yes, it is not waterproof. You spend a lot of money into something that is not waterproof, that is so not right.

Lol, I guess I should have mentioned that part. Without a Doubt the Toq is best out of Box. Its companion app has everything I needed (Except Tasker integration) without having to buy and/or wait for 3rd party apps. If the SDK for the Toq is release soon and Dev start cranking out apps, the Toq is a guaranty to be the Top Smartwatch in my opinion.

Can you check what brightness level you have while outside in day light and also how long does it last on a single charge,

WOW, you gotta be kidding me? That is very impressive!!! Do you get a lot of email/txt/call notification during the day? Also, do you unpair it at night or keep it paired up 24-7? I know with my MetaWatch once the watch is far away from the phone, my phone keeps searching for it non-stop which drains battery on my Note 2 lol!!! So, every night I unpair my MW and N2.
Also forgot to ask, from the pictures, can you tell if Toq is tinner than SW2 or not? It definitely looks thinner than Pebble.

But can it....
Can it run google maps? I want to be able to wear it while I'm on my motorcylce and glance at it once in a while instead of only having audio telling me how close I am. Thanks and congrats on the new watch!

There's no viruses. Whoever said there was had to be a false positive. I've scanned it myself and there was nothing detected. I've got tons of tools for the PC that register as "viruses", but they're false positives. Nothing has happened on my tablet either. No mysterious apps or behavior, no charges on my credit card, no collection calls for purchases I've never made, no identity theft..
You've got nothing to worry about. The reason it requires an Internet connection is because it has to download device specific stuff rather than include every possible device with the program itself. It's just how they wrote it. Until we get custom recoveries going, we won't be able to build root into ROMs.

You can blame LG for that. This thing is seriously the best Android tablet on the market. I've used all of the "best" Android tablets over the past year and this is by far the best. They've got a solid product.

Honestly I didn't know much about this thing until today. I was planning on getting note 8 until I came across this thing and as long as the reviews are right I'm sure I'll be happy.

I had a Note 8 and it was the perfect size but I couldn't get past the screen resolution. For that reason, I sold it and begun my search for a like size tablet with a higher resolution. That is how I stumbled across this beauty. I have not received mine yet but I've watched enough Youtube videos and have played with it at Best Buy enough to know it's a winner. Looking forward to breaking it in.

They mentioned something to someone who missed out on the deal to check Monday for another good promo.
So far i am really enjoying it.

Sooo...Who got one?

Got mine on UK launch after years of HTC phones.
So far I love it, very quick phone, the display is fantastic.
Plenty to explore for me and will be having a good play around...

I was thinking of picking one up. How are you finding the camera and overall performance?
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Overall performance is really good. The phone is fast.Everyone was saying "its not flagship specs" but you can't tell at all. Its as fast, if not faster than my M9.
The camera I haven't got to test fully but a few test shots looked really good. I believe the trick is to use the 8mp mode but will post some pics when I take some more this week.

I think I read somewhere that gaming performance wasn't great (this may be just for more graphic intensive gaming). If I can be cheeky and ask you to try 'basket fall' for me to see if that runs fine (it's the game I'm hooked on at the moment) - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kumobius.android.basketfall&hl=en_GB thank you
I look forward to seeing your pics later.

Just tried that game. Yes it works absolutely fine. No slowdown or anything

Thank you so much for trying. I think I'll be placing an order next week. For some reason when I played that game on the HTC10 there was a bit of slowdown. Glad to hear the X is fine. Always preferred Sony phones

A couple of photos

Hopefully getting one to replace my trusty M2 end of July all being well.

Got mine on UK launch after years of HTC phones.
So far I love it, very quick phone, the display is fantastic.
Plenty to explore for me and will be having a good play around...

Can you also do battery test for that device?

Any heating issues?

on the first day, without sim, it says many times overheating, but now, theres nothing at real use and with sim, sd and connections.
now it is on 42°C after an hour photoshooting

So its worth the money?
In germany its about 600€...which is, in my opinion, y bit overpriced.

Check it on eB..., prices have already come down to around 500 EUR for devices people have received from their carriers (but are unlocked!). So we're getting there quickly

The problem with buying from ebay, that warranty is a problem.

Currently i'm using my Z3C but i'm thinking about upgrading to the X.
I could get it for 420€ in Germany do you think its a good buy for that money?

Check for the official price for it in Germany, then you will know. Different countries have different pricing polices, some countries you will have to pay full prices, whiles others you can get them free or reduced price with a carrier plan.

Me ^^

Just wanna ask if you could do me a favor ?
Download an app called ApkExtractor from Play Store & extract the apk named Video ( Sony Stock Video App) & please upload to a website
I have downloaded the system dump but couldn't find the app, thank you.

Not in Germany at least (from where he is). All Sony Repair Center is asking is the IMEI (from which they can tell the age).
