Google Android users clubhouse

Damn. Came in this morning to post here for it as well :)
 
sooo... anyone got/getting the transformer prime? any thoughts on it so far?
 
wow I totally missed this club lol, i've been using android for over a year now. Add me to da list lol. Atrix 4G.

Also, I got a couple apps to add... the "Xfinity" app from Comcast which is pretty much a TV Guide. Really comes in handy if you have basic cable with just the converter box. "The Weather Channel" app for those that don't like weatherbug for w/e reason.

and +1 on the flashlight app. be sure to put an icon on your home-screen for easier access lol. tap on/tap off.

And now an app... request... is there an app in the works for uploading images to techpowerup.org?
 
OK guys; soon I will be able to use a phone discount and upgrade from an OG Droid. Now I have a feeling I won't be able to afford a Rezound or Gnex so limited down my choices to

1. Droid Bionic
2. Droid Incredible 2
3. Droid 3

What would be your choice? Also not counting out the LG Revolution either nor the Thunderbolt. No plans on moving over to a 4g plan here either.
 
Per our conversation over Steam, my vote's on the Incredible 2.
 
4 votes DInc2 2 votes Bionic. I like them both alot.
 
Got a kindle fire/ & rooted it! lols, i had it for .5hrs before i decided to root... pretty neat. don't like the unrooted system Kindle won't let you access google aps or Andriod market but now i can haz cookies lol

If you don't have 4g in your area, I heard the 4g antenna searching kills your battery bad. Friend at work has a Droid Razr and he turned off the 4g because of that.
 
Ok? So that means I can't get an LTE phone without sacrificing battery life?
 
I think you can just turn it off. At least he can on the Droid Razr...
 
I speed tested my phone and got 2Mb/sec down and 2Mb/sec up, i think it states my phone as 14.4Mbps HSDPA and HSUPA 5.76 Mbps. I don't know how that compares to 4G in the US though.
 
PdaNet for the phone and desktop lets you get on the web with out rooting.:toast:
 
My phone natively lets me connect my USB cable and use my pc's connection on my phone.

Let's hope you don't get charged for it!

Yeah its says in my net 10 contract no tethering but I am not so sure they can tell with Pdanet application.
 
Its not tethering, its reverse tethering. My phone does do tethering too, its the option above the one selected. If i use the reverse tether, it costs me nothing (apart from usual net cost) as I am using my home net connection on it.
 
Got it. Didn't take the time to read it carefully :o
 
anyone here plays osu!droid

Lol i understand how that could happen, I have never seen this reverse tether on a phone before, I wonder how many other phones can do it. It is pretty cool for downloading from the market, and browsing on it at home.
 
I got my Droid Incredible yesterday and I've been playing around with it a little. I have a ton of stuff installed on it, and it's so much faster than my Ally. I'm happy, at least until the wife finds out I bought it :p
 
Currently looking for a tab, but damn, that is as hard as it is to find a good media player...
I want something with a 10" screen, Market, a half decent CPU/GPU, 4.0 or an upcoming update to 4.0 and a webcam would be nice.
And in this region, I'm looking for the low end pricewise. Any recommendations?
 
For the price, the HP Touchpad is nice, but you need to root it to get the rest of what your looking for.
 
I upgraded from a T-Mobile G1/HTC Dream to a Samsung Galaxy S II today. Lovin' it.
