Just discovered swype. So cool.

[BooG690]

LOL Swype. Download the SwiftKey keyboard app. You'll never look back.

this. used swype for a year and uninstalled it instantly once i tried out swiftkey.

SwiftKey

Are you running ICS? It already does this, is swiftkey better?

[BooG690]

I am running ICS on a Samsung Galaxy SII. The ICS keyboard is just OK. The Samsung keyboard is absolute trash. SwiftKey is a lot more intuitive than the stock ICS keyboard and does a better job of learning what you type (not only words, it learns entire phrases).

Also, this just came out for Android. Soso amazing.

[BooG690]

SwiftKey just put in a major update that makes it about 5x more intuitive. Miss a space? Itdoesntmatter = It doesn't matter.

Oh, and it only costs $2 this week. Stop being fucking cheap and get it.

Go Launcher EX (and unrelated live wallpapers) puts the entire iShit ecosystem to shame. iPads are still handy though.


Also, any.do for your to do lists.

It's for getting me to physically run to play the game, nice try.

Got a Note 2 just after Xmas

i'm using Nova Launcher and love it. I was loving the swipe keyboard but will give swift key a try for a bit to see if I like it. I used to use a BB so it may better resemble that.

[Jack Sawyer]

How is the battery on that thing Jyms?

[jyms]

Battery is as good as anything I have had in the past. I can go all day on a charge. I plug it in at night and that is it

How's the battery life? - Android Forums

Here is the thread from the android forum talking about all things battery

[bode]

swift key has a beta right now for "flow", which is identical to swype but with much better word prediction.

Jack, i've used go launcher (as well as most of the other Go products) for a few years now but have been using Nova on my nexus 7. For some reason i dont like go as much on a tablet as I do one my phone.

[Jack Sawyer]

Thanks for the info guys.

I'm torn between the 1X+, Note 2 and the Nexus 4 for my next device. And then out of the proverbial nowhere comes the title contender, the Xperia Z. I have a thing for waterproof gadgets, so that is probably going to be my next phone. March can't get here soon enough for the reviews to be in.

[celtic123]

I had a Xperia last year (not the Z), the processor was incredibly slow. Doing more than one thing made it grind to a standstill.

[Jack Sawyer]

It has Snapdragon quadcore now, so it should not be a slouch.

But more importantly, this is why I want to get this:

[ilikeaces86]

One of my favorite apps is MightyText. It allows you to send and receive texts from your computer/tablet through your phone. That way I can type my texts, or receive and send them wherever I have a computer/tablet. It is super slick.

Lazors.

Logic game. Extremely frustrating. But simple and brilliant.

Solid puzzle game, thanks.

[rong]

Don't use the hints. It's over quick enough without them.

[Luco]

Anyone ever played the impossible game? I have no idea how long level one is and I possibly never will

Also, great little war game

Also, 4 pics one word BUT DON'T JUDGE ME

And of course I get a BlackBerry Z10. But I'm handing it over to my girl, to get a Z30 instead. I don't play games on my phone, and as a communications device a Z30 can't be beat. Awesome radio te keep that motherfucking signal alive, everyone has BBM nowadays, passable camera and a proper file system you can access.

Of course, eventually I'll get an iPhone 5s for weekends or some shit like that. But in the meantime, the Z10 (and soon the Z30) is my communications/biz workhorse.

[d0zer]

I love my z10, and with the latest 10.2 update, the android player can play directly .apks without conversion. There's even a droid store app you can download and install em' directly with.

[rong]

Anyone play boom beach. That's some addictive little game right there.

I'm in love with the coco

I mean my Z30. As a communications device it can't be beat.

I will get an iPhone for social gatherings though, but that's it.

[Luco]

My kids love adventure time and the regular show. There's a bunch of android games on sale right now:

https://www.humblebundle.com/mobile

Jumping finn turbo = nanaka crash
AT treasure fetch = snake
Best park in the universe = streets of rage / double dragon

haven't played the rest yet

[rong]

Ahhhh streets of rage!!! Brings back happy memories.

[rong]

Wasn't double Dragon on the Atari ST?

[rong]

I still remember the music so clearly.

[Luco]

Ahhhh streets of rage!!! Brings back happy memories.

Everyone says sor2 was the best but I loved sor3

[rong]

2s the only one I remember.

[Luco]

I tried boom beach. So basically if you don't pay for diamonds you're forced to play at a snail's pace?

[rong]

I've never paid for a diamond. Never will. It's a long term game, with little spurts of intense play, then waiting on until the upgrade is finished before attacking for more loot.

But there's fun to be had in attacking bases and designing your own to not get raped repeatedly and lose all your resources.

[jyms]

Is there much difference between boom beach and Clash of clans other than the setting and characters? I was looking at both of these as a time waster now that I think Simpsons tapped out has run it's course for me

[oskar]

Swiftkey is actually good now! I used swype for years. It was great during the beta, after that it became complete shit. Got slow, started crashing and removed all profanities from predictions. It was surprising to me how many of those I require to express myself adequately. I just went back to the standard keyboard for a while but swiftkey seems to do the job now.

The first ubuntu phone is getting released soon. I'm not sure I'd need it for anything, but it seems really cool. I haven't found an app that wowed me in a long time. Google maps and Evernote is pretty much all I use and I've recently ditched evernote for a spiral notebook and a stabilo.

I can't praise nanoloop enough. If you're at all interested in doing music stuff on your phone, this is by far the most appropriate app given the limitations of the platform. I play with it for 'bout 10 min. a month, but that easily makes it my third most used app.

[jyms]

Swiftkey is must have and was one of the biggest sellers for me over iPhone and BB when I made the switch. People still are in awe when seeing how I type compared to their phones

[rong]

Never actually played clash, but they are similar enough Conceptually. It just never appealed to me. If you get boom then here's some free advice. Screw defence, focus on offence and specialise early in terms of your primary offensive troop.

[Luco]

I still love swiftkey

You can remove words from it's prediction database too, e.g. if you're fed up of it saying duck instead of fuck you can simply remove duck

or, the words 'midget' 'tranny' and 'porn' every time you open google

[rong]

Got SwiftKey yesterday. Absolutely love it.

[Luco]

The other thing I like about it is I've reduced the 'long key press' down to a fraction of a regular android keyboard

Looong time swype user, I don't have a problem with it except for this (which maybe it's a feature I am now aware of).

EVERY SINGLE TIME! I swype "for" I get "fir". Who the fuck ever uses "fir" in a text? The only legitimate time I would ever want to say that is if someone asked me specifically "what is another name for a Xmas tree?".

I used to get "God" for "good", but they must have fixed something in a build because it's not an issue anymore.
