Sony to release dual screen android tablet...guess we might be wrong about the echo..

Just as the article mentions, its like the echo, now i personally dont like it as a phone but a tablet...idk tbh now the whole concept really looks like a 3ds lol, you guys think this thing will sell? What will be the major selling factor? hardware? bootloader? updates?

Maybe if the echo wasn't so God damn ugly and had better hardware.. people would buy it
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on Android OS. We now have CyanogenMod.

np man i might see if i can pick this up, save a little money, i got an evo soon to be a 3d too, for my phone, and as of now im rocking the ipad 2 as my tab, hopefully these new tabs can take advantage of honeycomb

In before this thread derails.
Honestly right now the iPad looks more appealing than any Android OS tablet. I think Android needs to work on polishing Android for tablets a bit more.

That Sony dual screen is just atrocious.

Idk about that. Have u seen the moto zoom. They r pretty polished and r running honeycomb. Very responsive and very fast

Yeah buddy, and the asus transform is $399 for the 16gb model, or $499 for the 32gb model.

Spam. In wrong section. Has nothing to do with Evo. Op needs to learn where to put non-Evo related threads.

Some people find this info quite nice, some people like you don't. You aren't a mod so if you have nothing postivie who cares what you have to say? Tired of people thinking they're in charge, and the flamers too. Go to 4chan if you wanna troll.

Just report the thread at the top right hand corner to see it go away. I feel like I shouldn't visit Android Central on a daily basis because I can find all the articles on the XDA Evo section.

I don't doubt that this dual screen idea could be more of a future norm, so long as it is done right. Have gotten some hands on time with the Echo and while you sort of get the idea, it just really seems tacky. At least I came away from the Echo with that feeling. I'm more interested in dual screen displays than 3D as well.
So long as it's done right, all around.

Based on your logic common citizens shouldn't try to stop little old ladies from getting mugged, unless they are police officers. Your logic shows a small picture view.

umadbro?????

If they'd build this so that there's a flush (seemless) connection between the screens I'd seriously consider these ....as it is their just.... stupid.

Keep the thread on subject. I am moving it to General as it does not belong in the EVO section.

The concept is nice, however I just cant get over the gap in the middle between the two screens, it really ruins the experience for me. Now if they do it RIGHT and allow true multitasking between each window this will be a good competitor; the screens are 5.5 inches so that's just big enough to allow full featured browsing/operation on each screen.

Android for the Military

Thought this was interesting. Apparently the US Army is developing their own Android apps to help coordinate frontline efforts.

Usualy that devices have GPS which can give somebody exactly location of soldier...

In android they can write custom safe o/s
Unlike iphone, android is opensource so the military can review all the code and close all security holes, great choice.

Almost every device in the military utilizes gps, but it is on closed, secure networks.

Android is the big thing! I tell you.
Stuff like iOS will never have so much success. People just buy those Apple crap because they think they are cool with that...

i think if every one is smart, we won't have wars...
those resources should be better spend in production/plantation...
but heck, i'm just a ordinary person, i wouldn't have understand that very well..

cool, are they coming up with there own hardware that is battle ready and field tested?

[APP] (In-development) Sketch 'Em, a "how to draw" app for Android

This app has been released and is now available on the Samsung Apps Store & Google Play
Hello! I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but here goes.
I'm part of a team developing a niche app for the Note. It's a drawing tutor, that's supposed to teach users how to draw in different art styles. We're looking at anime/manga for initial release, with different "style packs" to be released in the future as downloadable content.
Here's a video of the app trailer (goes up to 1080p for full Galaxy Note screen, though cropped, resolution):
I'd just like to know, for the kind of people who might be interested by this kind of app, what kind of features might you like to see?
My team has a deadline to meet so we definitely cannot promise implementing every feature right away, but if the app does reasonably well, it's safe to say it'll get the long-term update treatment.
And yes, there is a very similar app out there called "How to Draw - Easy Art Lessons" in the Google Play store, but we hope to better execute the same idea.

I think it looks awesome !!! I Love drawing on the Note but Im really **** at it lol So having something like this would suit me down to the ground !!
Looking forward to it

Hey azzledazzle, thanks for that. I hope we can pull it off well.

KABAYAN
i will you all the success in this app. i too am a fan of drawing but drawing does not like me that much, i hope this app mends our differences, lol.

Haha, yeah that's half the reason I'm liking this project so much. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

I love drawing, drawing hates me! I hope this would help me though
Edit: Saw the video and it looks pretty neat. One feature I would like to request is.. I don't know how to put it but anyways.. I would like to select a image from the gallery, say a cute lil puppy, and be able to trace that picture on a blank sheet (or canvas??). So after I finish tracing, I could edit it a little, a few finishing touches here and there, and save it.

As far as I know, any non-touchwiz ROM can't access the Samsung App Store. I tried installing the apk, tried the website. Nothing helped. I wonder if there's a workaround that I may not know of though.

I've tried a little bit of drawing with the note but not got very far.
Would be interested in an app to help me develop it further. Not seen video yet (no wifi atm) but will check later and let you know of anything I'd like to see implemented.
Would be happy to perform testing if you need anyone.

Hi guys, just letting you all know we've uploaded to the Samsung app store and it's currently undergoing review. Additionally, according to the Samsung Smart Apps Challenge rules as well as the general Samsung developer agreement, they don't require exclusivity for titles on their store. So we'll be uploading to Google Play afterwards, too.
Some tidbits about the current version:
Creator mode is done, in very rudimentary form. Users can make their own drawing tutorials in a step-by-step manner with up to 13 steps, upload the tutorial, and view/trace the tutorials of others in the community category.
Aside from anime characters, the app now has a dinosaurs category!

To be honest I just like sketching anything, Anything that helps become a better drawerer (is that a word ????)

Yeah, I could've worded that better. My apologies.
Some trivia about the app if you care to know: it started out as a kind of maze game where you control this glowing lump of lava lamp goo by using the S-Pen, and depending on the amount of pressure you apply, the goo would grow or shrink in size, making it more difficult to traverse the maze if you're heavy-handed with the pen. But the S-Pen SDK doesn't really have any functionality for animations so it looked really stale.

It is not because it is not compatible hardware-wise -- I have it running on my 700, and while there's some lag on starting the game, it runs beautifully once in-game.
The only 100% legal option you have is pay for it and subsequently download it while on a supported device, rip the apk out with, for example, Total Commander or Titanium Backup, and transplant it to your 700.

Humbug.
Thanks though

That's like complaining a Windows game doesn't work on a Mac. You're asking for a game on a totally different operating system. Every scrap of logical reasoning could've told you that it might not work beforehand.

Your thread started out regarding PvZ specifically (it's even in the title!). You can't take a crap down somebody's back because you phrase things clumsily. My advice (which I myself mostly follow): take your time posting something, and think over your phrasing. I try not go get personal, although I admit I'm only human and therefore can take only so much before I explode.
A correre e cagare ci si immerda i garretti. Freely translated: running and taking a crap at the same time will foul your heels. Ancient Italian (probably of Sumerian origins), but very applicable to many of life's situations, like forum posting, sex, cooking, chemistry (which is my educational background) and military operations (of which I have had a taste as well). I should have this tattooed somewhere. (That would be a first, by the way.)

Can it work?
If everybody is done criticizing each other over how they've worded their posts, can we get back to the topic?
Is there a way to make this game work on a 1920x1080 Android device? There are more and more of them coming out...such as the S4 and HTC One. There must be a way to scale the display...?
Does anybody have a solution?

Well, if you'd read my first post (or took in the message instead of only feeling the 'tone'), you'd know the answer: yes, we have. It works beautifully, and has done so for almost a year on my tab. Thank you for reviving this old, decomposing thread.

There was an android humble bundle a while back that had plants vs zombies as part of the bundle. It runs well, scales nicely, and as previously mentioned it lags a little during cut scenes.

Youngest app developer

Guys I am 11 years old and I'm the youngest app developer in Europe! I currently develop for only one platform which is android. I am soon to receive a free noka lumia 920 from Microsoft I recently made this in 4 hours! Any of you guys like it? Its free! To view the app you have to search the google play store for "tree jump flamagames" android

Well how do you know your the youngest? I made my first app at the age of 12. And I am from South-Africa, nothing happens here, I am sure there are younger developers in Europe.

Your game is so unbelievably hardcore that I gnawed one of my arms off in frustration and then proceeded to run around my living room screaming obscenities at whatever inanimate objects were unfortunate enough to be in my path.

I am the youngest.

The game runs on the Adobe Air platform. I know because it prompted me to download Adobe Air since I didn't have it.

I am a ROM Developer for 4 Devices and I am only 15 years old !! I also run all the builds ALONE !!

Well done for creating apps, however what really is the point of this thread? it does seem to me like you just trying to get your post count up

Nice work, starting so young! I was writing code when I was your age as well, although they were BASIC and C games running on my Apple II and PC XT clone....with 320x200 4-color/2-bit CGA graphics. Programming can be great fun, just don't forget to go play outside.
I'd suggest making tree jump work in a landscape orientation, in order to give the player the ability to see farther ahead.
There's always going to be someone younger, don't worry about it. But watch out for making claims about being the world's youngest. In any case, that's impressive work for age 11.

Neat work coming from an 11 year old. Also not a bad way to get them downloads

I never said I was the worlds youngest I said I was Europes youngest! Which is true! Google "Caolan Fleming"

Now is simple to have all information that you need to develop apps. When i was 12, i read for the first time how to program games for J2ME, but i did not have the concept how to program. However, my first program was in Visual Basic at 15 years old at school, on the books and without internet because 10 years ago internet was a luxury in Italy. Now is a great time to lear how to program because internet has all information that you need for all.

Nice that you are writting an Android app in your age. But honestly how can you be sure you are the youngest in Europe. But nevermind
But seriously do you want an answer to your post. I'm coding already double the time you are old. So I give you a tip: become 14-16, go out and meet a nice girl:laugh: and make other things. Because I have the feeling you are already obsessed. And this is the wrong way

Go out and have some fun with your friends man.. Being obsessed by these things at such a young age can cost you valuable future friendships
