Damn that's nice. You should use this icon set. It'd look really good with your setup.

HOLO Icons

Thanks for those, they look great.

 

[mturco]

Yeah no problem. I've been using them on my Nexus 10 and they're really nice. I like that they're exactly like the actual icons, just flat. Wish there was a Plex icon though.

I wiped my phone yesterday, and went through the tedious process of re-configuring my apps and their settings.

To my surprise, TuneIn Radio was the only app that remembered my preferences. Is this a benefit of app developers using Google sign-in?

It's not Google sign-in; it's a backup service that Android offers built in to the system, but almost no one takes effing advantage of.

It's extremely annoying. This is one of those cases where if Apple were in charge, they'd be ok with forcing devs to use this, and it might provide a better experience for users.

I absolutely love this service, Google should take charge and enforce it!

So the HTC First is $1 through AT&T. Not a bad deal for maybe the best mid range smallish phone out there.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Signing a contract with the First though...brutal.

Well if you turn off home you have a stock experience so it's a solid jelly bean phone with LTE.

I'm not saying any of us would buy it, but there are worse choices out there.

Just heard the XFON will have a 60000mAh battery. nice.

 

[ZetaEpyon]

God damn, I love small dock icons :O~ I decided to play around with the dock icon size and I'm really starting to like it. Also, I began using Feedly again (especially for the widgets) and I love it. Too bad it doesn't have offline sync like Currents.

What list widget is that in the third screen??

 

[PriitV]

This and it's only 199€, no contract, availiable worldwide??

Verizon will carry an XFON and XFON Maxx

i heard it has notification widgets.

Yeah, I'd definitely take it over all the garbage ass Galaxy S Ace, Desire C, Xperia go phones.

 

[Talon]

I heard Damon Lindelof designed the XPhone.

I'm sure the reveal won't be disappointing.

 

[Hieberrr]

Tasks. It costs money, but there is an alternative that is just like it called, "NoNonsense Notes"

what's the xphone

 

[bob page]

CM 10.1 RC1 is out.

Cool, you've always been our go-to XFON source here on Android-GAF. We're all glad you're around!

 

[ThatObviousUser]

XFON is also secretly being made by Samsung. whatatwist.jpg

 

[Pctx]

CM 10.1 RC1 is out.

For XFON?

 

[brotkasten]

You're the worst, Pctx.

 

[Groof]

Did you guys say that the XFON will be able to control any moving vehicle through NFC?

 

[PriitV]

Did you guys say that the XFON will be able to control any moving vehicle through NFC?

We thought it was a given

 

[ScOULaris]

CM 10.1 RC1 is out.

How could it be a release candidate? All of the nightlies as of late (for the Galaxy S3, anyway) have been borked in one way or another. M2 was the last stable, smooth build for me.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I'm just upset it's not going to be a 70K mAh. Whatever though, 60K amps aint bad. Should get me through the day.

i want this damn thing to legitimately leak to stop mucking up this beautiful thread

I don't think CM or any AOSP ROM will ever be *actually* stable on any phone besides a Nexus.

Yeah, it's getting to be annoying and distracting. Let's talk more about how Hangouts will incorporate SMS.

The HTC One doesn't suck, so we've lost another topic to bitch about.

 

[buhdeh]

Let's go back to Samsung:

Can you guys believe that the home button lag (due to S Voice) is still there on the GS4? What a huge piece of crap!

it won't

I'd be surprised if it weren't there


I'm glad we took the time to hash that out. Back to XFON.

Waaait, they kept the S-Voice on S4? Have they made it better or is it still the same POS as before?

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Mobilesyrup.com just posted that the S4 is already getting a software update in the next few days to help with some issues.

WHERE'S MY UPDATE HTC???

why would it not be there? it has to wait for the second press to know if you want S Voice or not.

the difference is the S4 was rushed so the retail units aren't on a proper stable release yet.

It's also 350 off contract which makes it a decent purchase if you want 4.1 with no frills

Like I said when it was announced, the Nexus 4 changed the game. It's hard to have a discussion on any phone when we're talking off contract. It's not even close and it probably won't be until the Nexus 5 comes out. It was the biggest surprise and the best feature of the phone.

Yeah the Motorola Nexus XFON 5 is going to change the game...again. Can't wait. Where da rumorz at

No such lag on HTC One or iPhone and they both utilize long press/double tap on the home button

 

[DrFunk]

or you could get a Nexus 4 off contract

or you could realize it's good to have options, if you want el tee ee

 

[The Faceless Master]

they don't have S Voice

or you could realize it's good to have options

options are nice. but for $350, the comparison between the two is lopsided.
