I noticed that ICS brings a whole new voice to google nav. Got me thinking... Is there any way to install a different voice package in order to customize the navigation voice? Id love to do something funny like Darth Vader or at least switch it up a bit like you can with a traditional Garmin unit. Thoughts?

I second that. If you have few $ to shed, svox is worth it. Been using American Female voice for a while now. The default voice is just ridiculous

Awesome!!!! Thank you!!! =). I've actually been wanting this for a very long time but hadn't really looked into it until I heard the new ICS voice lol

Svox is awesome. You can even alter paid voices. You can manipulate pitch etc. Change your region if you decide to use UK / foreign accents.

I noticed the difference in voice coming to ICS too. She sounds a bit more manly.

I noticed the warning as well. Think the ICS version fixes that requirement because I have a UK voice set up that works and my region is still set as US. Which was convenient because I don't know how to install the UK region setting (settings only gives me English and Spanish (US)), nor did I feel like researching how to either lol

I find the notifications and the app to be sluggish at times and I know it has nothing to do with the phone.

Their updates are garbage too. I always have to read the comments before updating because they almost always have some sort of problem.

Blackberry sems to be the only one with a reliable + official Facebook app from my experience.
And that phone is for dinosaurs.
Neither my iPod Touch 4 or EVO gets them consistently.
The facebook app is an embarrassment to that company. I truly can't believe they havent done something about it. Google+ has one of the best looking and functioning mobile apps I have personally ever used, fb should take notes.

The FB app sucked on the OG EVO. It's not the phone. It's ridiculous that a website of that stature has such a crappy app.
I agree, the app is so slow I usually just give up before the content is fully loaded and turn on my computer haha.
Slow as hell on my One X aswell, almost bought an s3 in a rage
You would figure for a multi billion dollar company they could do a simple app. It worked way better before they added everything. I normally go through the browser anyways. I don't need up to date notifications but if you did why not turn on text notification? I mean you get unlimited texts anyways.

Funny you mention that. I haven't noticed any ads on the mobile version and I figure they just use our data as "payment". Overall I kind of want to ween off of Facebook. I feel they sold out just at the right time.

Ww need a new social network. Every dog has it's day, and maybe Facebook has had theirs? Although it should be a network defined by it's users, not controlled by profit and exposure.
FYI, the facebook app for Blackberry is actually made by RIM, but with facebook's support. That's why it doesn't suck as bad.
Also, facebook's app on iOS (both iPhones and iPads) suck. Countless mistakes and bugs and they never update it either. I usually just end up using the mobile web version of it.
They have no real mobile strategy. That's why the stock is crapping out. If they had a plan to make $$$ off a mobile platform they might care about its quality and ability to draw customers for advertisers.

At least with Sense's Friendstream, Facebook at least seems functional (to a degree).
Google+ is great, just none of my friends are on it lol, but it does things Facebook wish it could do. I love the messenger on G+. While trying to use Facebook's, snail mail may be a more effective use of time lol.
Sorry for the bad quote, I wish the XDA app would work better with my Transformer :banghead:

That's a bit much, don't you think. There are apps I'm sure to forward txts and number dialled. Not what URLs are typed I wouldn't have thought. I'll have a look and post back. You can also get GPS location apps which are hidden too... Sounds freaky and wrong all this.

GPS Spy MobileGPSpy and Secret SMS Replicator are two apps you might like to look at.
Is there any mobile app to check the data usage of all the connections on the same network.
Assume i have a wireless router, i want to check which connection is using how much data of my wireless network at real time through my mobile.
Damn bro, I feel for you. Check out "paw server" May not be exactly what you're looking for but has many features to put your mind at ease.

You can block certain URLs with rom toolbox pro, but could be, that there is a slimmer app to fulfill your task.
However, I guess you'll need root and an app to hide other apps.

Found what I needed. Sms tracker! It shows text, mms (you can see the pic sent), calls, urls, and gps location if it is on. On the website they have a renamed app health checker or something like that. You get first 7 days free to check it out. I was amazed at how well it works.

i really, really do not get it... I'm a teenager (at the end where teenagers are called teenagers...) but, really... why not let em watch some XXX ? so they know "how to do it"....
when you want to block all 3x sites you should install a "per -ip" filter...to unblock only IP's that "meet your morality"
let me talk to em and i'll show them how to unblock sites and everything else you think is dirty. WITHOUT admin priivileges.

dumb is a matter of definition. Ok, nothing against illegal things like [torrenting, etc - where can get caught ] but, really...what leads parents to censor their kids internet?
Talk with your children, learn them how to use the internet and they (and you) won't have problems. Be a good parent.

good can't always combat the naivete of youth. An alert parent can sense somethings up so if he/she feels the need to dig deeper than I'm glad such tools exist. Frankly that's part of the job. Kids in general don't do as well with parents who are always trying to be there buddy. Just be sure that if you do find something to not disclose methods and means and F it up for others
This is going nowhere fast.

Is it possible to port iPhones statusbar?

It´s possible to create a similar looking statusbar, but you should care of what you asking for The android community is like "What you bought a S3 and now want a IOS theme? Burn!"
What? You bought an S3 and now you want iPhone status bar?! Burn!
awsome but still dont make it

You'd rather be assimilated by a pear lol. Still, I can only think of the iPhone notifications app that pops messages and other alerts on the screen like an iPhone. Nothing that changes the statusbar comes to mind tho

Point for the OP may have been that the S3 is a much cooler phone and more powerful also. Oh, and the whole screen is bigger thing also. And then there is the whole Android is great and is capable of being customized to the hill. And can even be made to mimic whole or in part IOS. Fact of the matter here is that we all here love different thesis/looks for our devices. And if some of you might not have guessed, IOS has a theme of its own. And, some in here like that theme. Do I no. But that does not matter. All that matters is that the OP gets to what they came for as well as every one else here. So, on that note, Yeah!

Honestly there's features on iPhone that I think are fantastic - that said, I'm still an Android fanatic. I'm not sure though why everyone's giving the OP a hard time.
To answer the question though, it's possible, but highly unlikely since we'd be working with closed-sourced software. There's no way to port the iPhone's status bar without an enormous amount of work. That said, you can still theme the status bar to similar likings. If Rompnit got my post in the Morphology section, you'll find additional signal bar icons that are based off the iPhone's.
For an iPhone style you just have to flash a MIUI ROM and install a iPhone theme.

Hi, i suspect my girlfriend is cheating on me, is there an app that can record and send to my phone all her texts and phone calls or something, she has a galaxy s5 rooted, or an app that would log everything she types that would be cool, thank you.
I don't think this is the right place for asking this kind question; but anyway, I'm not an expert.
