Droidmote....is AWESOME!!!!!
If you have a Android PC-On-A-Stick or a Google TV device you can use another droid as a remote to control it the same way Unified Remote does with windows....

Such as I watch Netflix on my UG802 and control it with my HTC EVO....
Droidmote even has a game pad remote so you can use your phone as a GAme Pad...

How can I activate mass storage driver? That would make it appear as a usb device when plugged in right?

if you have CWM installed, its one of the options when you boot into recovery mode.

I have twrp. lemme look

it has a mount menu but I cant find any option for usb driver

it wont be labelled "USB DRIVER" or anything so obvious. lemme see if i can find what its called in my galaxy S.


in CWM, its under "mounts and storage" and right at the bottom "mount USB storage"

 

[Irony]

In TWRP it has a "mount" menu, inside it has four check boxes: Mount system, Mount cache, Mount data, Mount sdcard. Then below those it has two options, "using external sd card" and "using internal storage" and thats all Nothing at all about USB. I know twrp has some USB mass storage option or something somewhere because its in their changelog and description. Can't really find anything about it online tho

 

[Mussels]

i got no idea what TWRP is, never used it (whatever it is)


those options are mounting the internal partitions - the system parts of the phone.

TWRP: Team Win Recovery Project (a alternative to CWM mainly touch mode with a nice graphical interface)

i never got added to the club ... oh well i guess CrazyPyro isnt on lately ...

still i own actually 2 CCAD (Cheap Chinese Android Device (does that count )
cheap goes for the price ofc ... performance wise its not so cheap
and another little piece

a MPman MP700 (7" tab Allwinner A13 Mali 400mp 512mb ram 4gb rom(32gb uSD yay) 4.0.4(running also 4.1.2 like a charme)) a clone of the Nexus 7 (at last the back look like xD)
ofc its a chinese A13 generic tab rebranded MPman (the branding is fading actualy xD)

a Toshiba Folio 100 (10.1" Nvidia Tegra2 250 T20 512mb ram 16gb rom (yay 64gb SDcard) full size HDMI/USB(otg) mini usb) has passed under FolioComb (custom Honeycomb) CM9 (4.0.4) CM10 (4.1.1) she has the glasse of the screen cracked but still perfectly useable

and since my HTC One X crash landed i actually use a UMI X1 (4.5" Mediatek MT6577 PowerVR SGX531ultra (yikes... ) 1gb ram 4gm rom (64gb uSD UHS-I) 4.0.4 upgraded with Shuame Toolkit to 4.1.2 (all in chinese but its kinda straightforward ...)

previously i owned a Galaxy S (wich was a Testbed for XDA roms ics and jb) a LG Optimus 2x (mainly under ics Eagleblood(before official and except HW accel it was stable and smooth)
and the one above One X (mainly on 4.1.1 stock with a custom kernel)

Yeah its another recovery tool really similar to CWM.

I'm so proud of myself lol. Decided to just do a factory reset. It does it in two parts deletes system cache first and then data, and I interrupted it right after it finished cache wipe but before it deletes all the data. I figured it probably wouldn't work but I booted it, and it went to the slect language screen and all that like a new device, and after I booted up I checked in filemanager and all my crap is still there! Except for apps but thats not a big deal. I managed to back those up through recovery.

So problem fixed. I'm so happy. I'm gonna be making backups more often and on more storage devices now.

Just nabbed me a 10.1 SGT2 off amazon warehouse clearence for almost £100 off full RRP.

The only catch is that the drive is a 'return' but amazon have checked it out after the first buyer returned it and deemed it fit for resale. judging by the feedback received from other comments. most of the stuff people get sent are virtually new, Since its openbox there might be a few accessories missing or some light cosmetic damage but better the 10.1 SGT then some cheap budget tablet so i cant really complain

 

[Crap Daddy]

3DMark for Android is out. Have fun:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.futuremark.dmandroid.application

 

[FreedomEclipse]

my SGT2 just arrived, for an openbox its virtually brand new, there arent any scratches on it or nothing. One thing that was a little different though is it didnt arrive with all the usual documentation like warranty card and manuals but the tablet still had its wrapping on and came in a generic box which most likely means maybe the original box was damaged in their warehouse or whoever bought it first and returned it had no love for it whatsoever.

the tab is currently charging as the battery was completely depleted when it arrived. Will load up Cyanogen as soon as its ready

 

[Mussels]

i stopped using my android tablet


makes a good backup media player, but i just dont use it at this house.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

well, I'll use it to read manga and watch minecraft in bed XD

ipad does that

 

[FreedomEclipse]

ipad does that

well if you are gonna gift me an ipad I humbly accept!

 

[Irony]

I've messed with an ipad 2 quite a bit and I guarantee I'll never prefer one over an android device.


Does anyone wanna post their 3dMark android scores? Here's mine

Transformer Prime

Ice storm, 4222
Ice storm extreme, 2276

 

[KainXS]

gonna try it on my ol rk3066 tab

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Well I found out why the battery was 100% depleted when I got the SGT2.

damn thing is defective. It crashes constantly or it goes into an endless loop on the boot up screen and WONT SHUT DOWN.

Back to amazon you go!!

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Does this make me sound like an asshole??

Dear Amazon,

Earlier on this week I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 from your warehouse clearance.
Unfortunately after receiving it, the battery was completely depleted which aroused my suspicions that I had been sent a defective unit but it wasn’t until a few hours later that after I had spent almost half a day charging it did I turn it on to only find out that I had indeed been sent a defective one.

If you honestly think this works. I must insist that you try setting it up and putting in your own account details in.
The tablet will either freeze or crash a few times during this process so you’re looking at going through the whole setup wizard at least two or three times.
When you do finally get it setup you won’t be able to go onto YouTube or do anything worthwhile as the tablet will freeze or crash in a matter of seconds
When you have finally ascertained that the tablet is faulty/broken, Please try wiping your account details from the tablet. I was sitting there for a frustrating 10mins attempting to do this as it kept crashing not long after the tablet was booted up and now its just setting on my desk constantly powered on as holding the power button down will only reset it and not fully shut it down
I am very disappointed how this was allowed to slip through amazon’s QC and even more disappointed as I paid more money for the ‘very good’ version of the tablet during the warehouse clearance instead of going with the ‘good’ version.

Due to this matter I can no longer recommend Amazon Warehouse Clearance offers to friends and family who wish to jump on what possibly seems like a good deal.

Yours faithfully.

not that much... i switched from a iPad to a MPman MP700 7" to read manga and follow TPU in my bed

ok i traded a apple iDevice for a CCAD ... buuutttt it was the last remnant of my apple gears

iPhone 4 > One X then UMI X1

iPod 5th gen > nothing i just sold it ...

Ipad 3 > MPman MP700

except for the phone who are quite similare in shared appstore and google play they have less horsepower buuuuuuuutttt they perform quite well for the task i assigne them!

also not mentioning that the Appstore version of Manga Searcher doesnt allow to download all chapter at once like the Android version does. or the PSP and PSone Emulator i can use on my androide device from base... (and running quite smooth considering the "weak" cpu for the tab and gpu for the phone

 

[KainXS]

I just use mangawatcher for my manga, I bought it before it was pulled from the market but its free now, you should try it out.

and ppsspp is promising, dolphin is being ported now also so thats something to look forwards too.

 

[Frick]

I now have a new dream phone (it used to be a phablet): The HTC One. Why? The camera. Looks totally excellent.

ppsspp is indeed promising ... it can even run some isos smooth and with near perfect sound ... thats kinda normal since Psone if perfectly emultated (i use boh ePSXe and Fpse ) and the psp isnt more powerfull than a Psone (tho the emulation part is different wich i reckon that the develloper of PPSSPP does a GREAT job)

I now have a new dream phone (it used to be a phablet): The HTC One. Why? The camera. Looks totally excellent.

actually its becomming a basic phone since the GS4 S600 does better result and the GS4 with the Exynos "octa" quadcore A15(and a quadcore A7 to say ohhh look we do have octocore ... but its not what you think, still who care in a phone about a "real octa") does way more ...

not mentioning that Qualcomm didnt released yet the S800 (and leak about the LG D801 wich appears to be the LG Optimus G2 who has a S800 are showing enormous performances rise)

but who care about power ... its a phone and the One has indeed dreams features and a nice camera (specialy if i can get one at 1chf like when i got my One X ... but no subvention till next year from my operator force me to buy a UMI X1 (Wich isnt bad at all))

also who care about benchmark ... or everybody would buy Samsung in phone or Nvidia/intel in pcs ... (a friend of mine said: inteligents peoples dont follow blindly benchmark, they test also by themselves.)

I'm not sure I follow you old sport, but performance is not that important to me. I mean of course it is, but it's not something I care that much about. It will be fast enough. The camera bit is pretty important to me, especially shooting in the dark. I live way up north in Sweden where it's dark a long time of the year, so yeah..
