Android phones, apps and tablets

Yeah that controller is the key - I like OnLive it saved me from having to upgrade my PC to play a couple of games recently. Playing anywhere is a great idea - but it would mean still getting a relatively powerful Android tablet. Perhaps the Tranformer Prime or Xoom 2 will be worthwhile after all.

Exactly what I was thinking. Although I'd imagine the next version of xbox will do it and possilbly better I can't imagine them having an android app.

my phone won't install any new apps because it says I have run out of space. I have hardly any installed and over 2 gb's left so can't work it out.

2gb on your SD card? Internal phone storage could be low.

system storage is 1.75gb, not the 2 as I thought. USB has 4.5gb, SD card has 4gb.

It's awesome. I've never used it before but it learns even my cack handed approach to typing (read mashing the keyboard with stumpy thumbs) and the auto correction is godlike... I even managed to compose a readable text message to the wife just hitting space repeatedly and choosing the suggested words :)

£0.10 well spent.

:D
I loved it the moment I brought it last year after using the free trail.- When the free trial was up, I was like, begging for mercy... "NOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooo" - then realised it was worth buying, heh. I never got on with swype.

Just been playing a bit of OnLive Darksiders on my SGS2, pretty fucking impressive. Only over shit wifi so it was a little jerky in places, but the picture was mostly crisp and framerate good. Next to no control lag either.

Trying to install onlive now. I seem incapable of finding it on the market place app on my Motorola xoom. Just trying to install via web based market place.

Anybody want an unused Archos 101 case?

I bought one, but 2 came in the parcel. Cost me a tenner, yours for a fiver?

I actually think they've engineered some pixie dust into it. It's learning more as I use it and I don't think it will be long before the phone replies to the wife without even telling me...

In order to restore a positive karma balance you send it back or bring it to me for nothing..

Yeah, I didn't really think that would work.

I broke it by training it with LFGSS. Now all it offers as suggested words are "UTFS", "Cunt" and ">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>".

Official Twitter client has been updated and is terrible.

Highly recommend Twicca as an alternative: https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.r246.twicca

Although, you need to go in the settings and disable the fact that Twicca wants to override volume controls for scroll up and scroll down by default.

So I installed SwiftKey X, and off it went, analysing all my texts, etc. For those of you who haven't used it, it analyses all the text you write, and then uses that to not only guess the word you're trying to type, but the next words too.

So for example, if you start writing "I will", it'll probably suggest the next word is "be", press space to select that, and then it may suggest "arriving". You can write whole sentences just by tapping space.

Now, I'm curious if this is just an Easter egg, but if I start with a blank text box and start hitting space; this is what happens:

I am a beautiful person. The creator of the most of the time on the transitions! Glad I didn't cycle home tonight. Your T forever and ever since.

Pretty sure I've never written anything like this before! I've certainly never been glad I didn't cycle home.

^ I get:
I am a beautiful person. The creator of the most of the most of the most of the...

so possibly at least part of ti is planned

i get exactly the same as branwen.... i also had it crash on me yesterday so i couldn't enter anything into the text box... but seems fine after a restart

I get:

"I am in the UK. We are looking for saying. The creator of the most holy sites of interest to you. Jason x"

Had a look at a Samsung Galaxy Note today- and despite my terrible experience of Android hardware I have to say I'm tempted.

What's the general opinion of it?

Looking at the Huwai Blaze as a cheap android phone with gps to play with till I get the iphone repaired.

Any opinions?

I think it was designed as a business phone, and is the only Android phone that's tempting me at the moment. I really like the functionality of the the design - a phoneblet. Haven't heard anything negative about it, but I think it's a niche phone so won't sell as well as the more mainstream fare. I also have a feeling that if it doesn't sell well, it might not get many OS updates.

Hah the swiftkey auto-guessing thing just made me giggle, thanks guys

Oh my sides! That must be the funniest thing ever!

Has the Meme thread been closed or something? Where's the technical chat and news?

I typed 'she' and then press spacebar from then on, what surprising is that I have changed the fork on my Brooklyn causing the head angle to steepen that it end up being longer, the TT position come from the recent experiment with a Brompton;
