Fieldrunners on android! finally! ok not free only 99 cents still a win
http://www.droidgamers.com/index.ph...utm_campaign=Feed:+droidgamers+(Droid+Gamers)
They can't change a free app to paid on the Market, so now instead of being free the 1st 24hours, it's going to be .99 cents then up to the 2.99 regular price.
should just make it amazons app of the day.
I'm excited! This was one of my fav games on my iPhone before it got 5 finger discounted off me.
Can't wait to play it on a 4.3 inch screen. Bring it, well worth 2.99 and glad to pay .99

It's not free anymore. Anyways, is there a way to get these games for free onto our device. This is my first android. I haven't done research yet so I'm hoping someone can give me some insight, I'm being lazy again. I'm not cheap just broke, haha. (OK I'm cheap too)

Just search for the app name with apk after it on Google or get 4shared from the market
Don't call me cheap I have bought apps before...

LoL it cracks me up how people will spend hundreds of dollars on these smartphones, screen protectors, expensive cases, insurance over the course of a contract hundreds more. As soon as you ask them to pay $.99 to support a dev giving them an app to enjoy in this case(or better their experience with system apps)it is all of a sudden too much to ask.
THERE ARE THOUSANDS of free games and apps if you can no longer afford a few dollars every so often stick to those.

It costs developers time and money to produce an app. Why is it wrong for them to ask for a small fee? People don't want ads, but then complain when a developer wants to put out an ad free product at a nominal price. And what you were talking about in your previous post is piracy. I understand not having money. In that case if you don't have the money to buy something don't, but also don't think that makes stealing it ok.

It affects all of us.
Regardless, use common sense. Do you really think going to a DEVELOPER SITE and asking to pirate apps is a good idea?
Not to mention against the rules

Pirating these games is just assholish if you ask me. Just pony up the 99 cents.
So none of you pirate videos, music, software, games or anything like that then do you. If you do, don't say its different because its not, your a hypocrite. I do donate to ROM developers on here, nothing huge, usually $5.
Also, maybe i should specify that I don't care for the games they have on the app store. I would prefer PS1 games or if possible PSP games. Maybe that will change your minds, I got rid of robo defense right away and I dont want this fieldrunners game. I dont do angry birds or any of those, so sorry I wasn't clear, but I bought my fair share of PS games and I feel I can get them back on my phone for fun.

No, I don't. Besides, you run a much greater risk of picking up some malware or something with those stolen apps you find.

Just a word to wise, asking how to get free paid apps on a Developers site is an instant flame.
Cmon man, you're a Senior member!!!
Honestly, its just $0.99. Give up a cheeseburger or fries for one day and you get the real deal.
I admit I pirated a couple of apps, BUT I do eventually buy them to get the updates or if I use them more than a day or two.
Im not really keen on paying $5 for something ill only use once, or god forbid 16 minutes. A lot of apps I noticed are fighting piracy buy selling a key or license to unlock the full version. That's fine with me.
I agree people have money for internet and cell phones but wont pony up a dollar for a game. I think you need a job or go back to school to get your life together.
What part don't you guys get, I don't want the $.99 cent apps. I read they have older PS1, Nintendo etc games that have been converted to play on phones. I also seen it on the apps store to get the downloads for $4.99 but to me that seemed odd. The app wasn't for the games but for an app to DL the games. I thought I was clear I didn't want this app so for people to continue to say $.99 I don't get it. Also, if you think I care about flame then your wrong. I'm helpful to people, and mean to those who are arrogant, so if you think I'm being arrogant then it doesn't bother me at all if your hating on me. We all have opinions, I'm asking for an answer and the smartest on i got besides the .apk one, was about the viruses.

I am an Full time mechanical Engineering Student and I work 30+ hours in 4 days. So I have both of those covered.
Anyone have netflix dispaying correctly? Mine is inverted and if I hit the orientation button it only switches it on its side
Mine does the same thing. I found if you take the phone out of the dock and lay it flat it will show correctly.

A friend was happy to show up to apartment and brag BUT, I see no purpose in getting a dumb terminal when I have 2 laptops. Just me. Photon is sweet, but it cannot compete with my laptops.

This device (I have one w/ the photon) is meant for a narrow subset of users. If you have a tethering plan you are better off just using a full laptop (or a powerful netbook). However, if you dont and have no desire to pay 30 bucks a month the lapdock is a great way to have a 3G/4G netbook. In fact, the lapdock will cost you less than a years worth of tethering fees would. So in that respect it is a steal.
It is that simple. Incidentally this is why the lapdock is worthless on ATT. They force you to get a tethering plan if you want to use 3g/4g data on it. If you are already paying for a tethering plan you might as well use a real laptop.
No offense taken. I have a 17" that I got when I started college 3 years ago and I can't take the damn thing anywhere easily bc of it's size. I'm loving the look of this bc realistically I just use my laptop for homework and web browsing. I'm just worried about the size, I need to hop down to a sprint store to see if they will give me a new photon anyways. honestly I'm really waiting on the 500, too bad I can't find any info on the thing

I have the 100 and the old atrix lapdock I modified. I love them because they are small and allow me to do what I need, surf the web and remote control machines (logmein). I also have a laptop that I use for larger tasks.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
OK, Im with thehomelessguy, more or less, 100% BUT, I do not get tethering. I had it, done it, but go get your own data plan (Ok, friend of mine had 2 kids at soccer, but) I can do one device if I want to, which would likely be MY laptop.
Next, lets look at our Photon (or any smartphone for that matter?). Years ago when I was in the BB part of my life, I wanted to make things simple. Out with pager in with BB. Then Treo with music. Fast forward, Yes I have 2 laptops, but I wanted something small, compact, did everything, that I could take anywhere. If Im walking downtown and I feel like a movie, Photon. If Im walking down the street and I want to see email, Photon. If im walking down the street and I want to work, Photon!
Yes, I could do this on a laptop, lapdock, tablet, but I dont want to hual all of that around.
Just muy $0.02.
So, as you are all probably aware of by now, this phone gets people's attention. Anywhere I pull it out strangers come up to me and ask me about it. I tell them it's like a cross between a phone and a tablet and then I show it to them in action. I usually show them the split pane email screen and then a screen grab along with some annotations with the spen.
What functions or apps are you using to show the note's capabilities to strangers with short attention spans?
Careful now, u don't wanna have one of those strangers grab it and run.

I build / repair computers so I get a lot of traffic daily and everyone here knows I like to be an early adopter of everything. I don't make it a point to show it off, but if someone see's me using it and ask about it. I'll pitch it like a salesman would. The screen size and vividness usually grabs peoples attention. As far as apps, It's android, the only novelty is the s-pen. I will let people use it that I know are responsible while they are in the shop.

That was actually one of the reasons I refused to get an iphone - the iphone people running around showing off STUPID apps. I thought they looked like tools.
Lightsabers or whatnot.
If someone approaches me about the Note, though I do want to show how great it is. I want it to do well, and I want to kind of steer people away from all the STUPID Note ads.
The biggest oos and ahhs come from:
1) Playing video - best to use a HD one already on your sd card. (youtube is lower quality)
2) The keyboard - I often hand my phone to people to let them type their contact info. They very often say, 'wow.... this keyboard sure is nice'
I use thumb keyboard 4's 5" layout, max landscape height. Very comfortable.
While I talk about the note I casually do:
3) Games - I like to show puzzle quest 2, since it is very dense graphically with statistical numbers. Casually mention that playing it on a small screen is just painful.
4) Google Maps is always impressive, especially if you demo GPS lock.
5) For 'readers - amazon kindle, minimum size font/minimum margins is very impressive. Tons of text, and very readable.
I never show off the stylus to be honest.

Well I showed mine off to a AT&T corporate guy and got a job interview for at&t business sales from it.

My brother has one and i love it. cant beat that price for one of the most powerful tablets on the market now.
Pros:
Hardware
Google updates
$$$
Cons:
No expandable memory. He has the 8gb from launch and it cant hold that much. he blew through the 8gb fast and is now trying to play catch up when downloading new games.
If you plan on getting one. Please get the 32gb. I know people will argue saying its not needed if you're just going to browse or watch a couple of videos. But it happens to fill up quickly and you cant change your mind. lol
U love mine kindda p.o. about buying one before the price dropped lol but get one it is worth it

I bought my gf one for her birthday and she loves it. She hardly even uses her computer anymore. I love the fact that you can add multiple users. She has her own profile and when I feel like using it I click on my profile and instantly shows all my stuff on my own home screen.
Oh and the only thing she doesn't like about it is the camera quality on Skype is horrible. I've read that there are mods to improve the camera quality, but because this is her tablet I am not rooting it.

I absolutely love mine. I got the 16gb version and I use it every day. My laptop basically only gets used for burning CDs now. I'm running the stock rooted 4.2.1 and I think it's perfect. This is the first Android device where I didn't have a desire to install a different launcher or install some form of heavily modified or AOSP ROM. It's worth every penny in my opinion.

I love mine, just got it last week. my girlfriend has her settings and i have mine, it's awesome. i use a logitech bluetooth keyboard and google drive during school to take notes. the keyboard pairs easily and i experience little to no lag while using it. i can download my books on there too and boom, that all i have to bring. the keyboard comes with a case that transforms into a stand for the tablet when taking notes.. i linked it below, it's also available at best buy(where i got mine). good luck, it's definitely a good buy. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-920-...words=logitech+bluetooth+keyboard+for+android
I absolutely love my N7 and I wasn't expecting to enjoy it so much. Feel free to PM me with any questions you have. If you're doing research in the N7 sections, in the past it's been mostly trolls and morons who post in general but not development, so at the very least find someone who is active in both sections.

I have the 32gb version and I am very happy with it. I take mine out in the field with me and have it tethered it to my Rezound which is great for my daily use. If you are flasher then I would suggest taking a look at the Nexus 7 forums, some really nice Roms.
It is great for what it is, just don't have false expectations. Not to be combative but if she plans on doing the things you mentioned extra memory is not needed. I am a fairly heavy user and haven't even looked to see how much of my 16gb I have used.
Con: as a flasher I get kind of annoyed with all of the updates. bc so many updates the roms never really smooth out. Everytime I think it's set up great there is a new update. (first time with a nexus so maybe just annoyed with change).
I have an 8gb one with an OTG cable. I hook up my 16gb card to it. I also stream my music and movies from my server. Bought the OTG cable on Amazon for $.70.

I've had one since release ans I love it. Only con I can see is that there is no expandable memory options however the device holds up really nice. I have a Bluetooth keyboard for it as well, I got it from Motorola off of Amazon and haven't looked back I also have a treegloo case for it however I'm not sure I would recommend it because as of late it has been starting to break down even though I haven't abused it in the slightest

All i did was charge it a bit and turn it on to make sure it was working properly and immediately put it back in the box. Mainly bc my wife and myself are dorks and want to wait til christmas morning to officially open it :silly:
Now I am accessory shopping, need a nice case and maybe a stylus. I messed around with the display model a bit, and, with an iPad mini. Mini is wider, thinner and a bit lighter. And the thinness and lighjtness is where the comparison stops for me. The screen on the Nexus absolutely blows the mini out of the water. I didn't get too in depth using them, but I didnt need to. The screen comparison blew me away. I couldn't get over it.

Don't have time to read through the entire thread to see what everyone is saying, BUT if you are considering getting one then you definitely should. I don't even know where to start, but its perfect in every way. Very brief breakdown.
Pros: the perfect size, battery life is great, ROM development is plentiful, the device itself is really fast(running aokp 4.2.1) , lots of options for cases, and much more.
Cons: None!
I originally got it for when I run on my treadmill in the basement to watch Netflix and downloaded TV shows. Now after having it for a month I bring the thing with me almost everywhere. Best $250 I've spent in a long time.

Hi All!
Sorry to say that this is the end of a great relationship that my Note 2 and I have had. It's not Samsung's fault and it's not my fault the only people that can be blamed is Verizon themselves. When Verizon released the Android 4.1.2 update a couple of weeks ago the update installed smoothly and restarted the phone which was totally expected. What wasn't expected was for the display not to light up after the phone came back on. After fighting with Verizon support for over an hour on the phone, they sent me a replacement. Well supposedly they run the replacements through a 100+ point check before they send them out to people. Boy have I proved Verizon wrong on that with the phones that I had both the Note 2 and the Samsung Stratosphere(don't get me started on the Stratosphere). Well I get the replacement in the mail don't download the Android update or any apps other than the updates for those that Verizon and Samsung put on the phone. Within 20 minutes time the phone shut itself off 3 different times, and it got so hot that I could not physically bear to touch it. Which says a lot for the temperature because after working for McDonalds as long as I have I almost lost all feeling of heat in my hands so it takes a lot for me to be holding something and say that it's hot. I called Verizon and had them force feed me the bull**** that it had to be something that I downloaded causing this. After fighting with them for another 2 hours I had them sending me another phone and a replacement battery. Well the following Monday comes(2 days after getting the first replacement phone) and FedEx drops off the phone and battery. I open it up and activate the phone and no matter what I did I could not get the phone to connect to any wi-fi network. I spent 2 hours on the phone with Samsung, an hour on the phone with Belkin, and another hour on the phone with my Internet Service Provider all trying to troubleshoot the issue so that when I called Verizon I couldn't have them say that it was my internet service provider, wireless router, or something that Samsung had to help me with. I even went to every Wi-Fi Hotspot within a 15 mile radius of my house and tried connecting there with no luck. Well I call Verizon and fight with them some more and get force fed more lies and they send me out another phone. Well a day later when I get this phone it has the same exact problem of the phone that it replaced with the added issue that the power jack on the phone is so freaking loose that you can take the charger and spin it around in a complete circle. This had me furious at this point. Especially with all the aggravation that is involved when I call Verizon. Every single time I call them I am sexually harassed over the phone. They have it right there in black and white on the computer screens in front of them not to refer to me as a woman when I call, they have my name which is a guy's name and cannot be a girl's name, and the first thing out of my mouth before I even tell them my name is "I am a man, do not refer to me as a woman, and if you do so it will be considered sexual harassment." Well that doesn't stop them from repeatedly in the same conversation with the same person referring to me as a woman. Well after fighting with them some more and being sexually harassed some more and after threatening to take my family's 5 lines and get my extended family to follow suit with all of their lines(about 45 in all) and switch to a different carrier the head of the callcenter in Tampa, FL switched his tune right there and then especially after I told him that the reason he was calling me was because one of his management staff was sexually harassing me I gave him his choices he could either send me a brand new Galaxy Note 2 still in the box free of charge or he could switch it out to a different phone of my choice free of charge that was comparable in my mind. Well I chose the 32 GB model of the iPhone 5. I know it's no Note 2 in many ways, but I have had the iPhone in the past with work both the 3G and the 4 and have had no issues with the phone that weren't caused by something that I did( Dropped the 3G in the toilet). So as much as I loved the Note 2 and love Android I am switching back for the time being to an iOS device. February 4, 2014 I am eligible for my upgrade and by then the Note 3 should be out and I will be back to the Android side of the force. I just wanted to take and say my temporary farewell to Android.
Gunner Out!
Lol at sexual harassment.
Iphone5 comparable to the note2? Why didnt you say the s4? Or even s3? Sorry to hear about your situation. Verizon must be going down hill, cause I've always had good experiences with CSRs.

I never said that the iPhone 5 was comparable hardware, but I have always had good luck with iPhone's and I know plenty of people who have the S3 and they don't like the phone and I won't touch the S4 with a 10 foot pole till it's been out for a few months. Out of 5 of my siblings 4 have the iPhone 5 and my baby sister has the S3 and has had the same trouble with Verizon that I had. The best thing about the iPhone 5 is I don't have to contact Verizon Tech support directly I can go through Apple and my friends who are Geniuses at their stores.

Had my N2 replaced the other day, no issues with it, maybe I just got lucky....

Muzhik,
You must have been really lucky.
Does the iPhone 5 not have a return button on the keyboard?
The whole thing sounds like a giant troll.

I don't get it? Why wouldn't you touch the s4 for a few months? If you like the Note2 and Android so much, the S4 is the closest thing comparable hardware and software. Personally I think the iphone5 is a downgrade. Yeah, it might cost around the same price but it lacks a lot of features.

Asking someone to refer to you as male or female and the person does not oblidge does not constitute sexual harassment.
Sexual harassment*is*bullying*or*coercion*of a sexual nature, or the unwelcome or inappropriate promise of rewards in exchange for sexual favors.[1]*In most modern legal contexts, sexual harassment is illegal. As defined by the US*EEOC, "It is unlawful to harass a person (an applicant or employee) because of that person’s sex." Harassment can include "sexual harassment" or unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature.
Sounds to me like someone just trying to get their way.... But I digress...

If you willingly decided to go to an iphone over an android, I think we are all happy that we won't have to see what ridiculous posts would have followed you keeping an android.
"Working at McDonalds as long as I have" + dropping android for iphone = winner
