It's unfortunate that the future of superphones depends on who gets to snatch up which patents first...

After Google bought Moto's patents, it transfer some of them to HTC
Revenge of the fallen. I seriously don't like where this is going.
You know, ridiculous as it sounds, I can foresee there being a short period where no mobile phone manufacturer will be able to sell any phones in at least one country.
It's going to be like in the Rutles where one of them ends up accidently suing themselves.
So many lawsuits going on its insane
Im just trying to figure out why apple didnt stop the (android) phones coming to market in the first place. They were most likely sat around the room laughing thinking these guys dont stand a chance but its all back firing on em now.
Apple gets a suebat of their own =)
About time! I hope they win!
I think these kind of wars just won't stop between different companies
I LOVE HTC
Taste that Apple. You start this whole war, let finish them. Go go Android!!!
The other android manufacturers need to file as well. Bring it all together and file a huge class-action lawsuit against apple.
No wonder Steve Jobs bailed.
screw apple
what a season

Rumours of my abduction and rampant buggering by aliens are not entirely true: it was all consensual and they used lots of lube.
Seriously, I apologise for having disappeared for several months.
Unfortunately my father was diagnosed with a rare medical condition a few months ago and will be having major surgery in the New Year. It is likely that things will get a little worse before there is hope of him getting better.
This has been a hell of a lot to deal with, as he and my mother both also had cancer earlier this year, and it's the last things anyone needs.
I've been very distracted from our more frivolous endeavours, and I urge you all to think about the ones that you love around you and to ask yourself how you'd feel if they weren't here tomorrow:-
Give them a hug, and remind them that you've always loved their collection of Vintage Star Wars Figures including Vinyl Cape Jawa, Mint in Box.
I have received many emails and PMs and apologise for not replying in a timely fashion. I will respond to them all shortly after the New Year. I am still coding, and will be releasing more stuff once the dust settles.
I can be reached by email if you need me, vijaySquigglyThingvijay555.com
In the meantime, I wish you all the very best for the Season, and looking forward to a wonderful New Year!
Happy hacking.

The best of luck and strenth to you and your family. Hope all turns out well.
Best of luck to your family, and Christmas greetings to all.
Surur
Sorry to hear that, I hope you have a good Christmas but it is probably the last thing on your mind right now, thoughts are with you - Mike
Nice to hear from you again. Best of luck to your family, and all of you have a nice Christmas!
My empathy to you.
If you have follow some of my threads, you should also know what happen to me for a year till this year July.
Wishing your dad a speedy recovery.
Take a look at http://cancerforums.net/
you have struck a cord in my heart with your words, all the best For the treatment of your dad.
Best of luck to you and your family vijay. Hope your father will get better.
Godspeed in their recovery mate.
best of luck mate... I wish this new year maybe differnet for your folks, and things will get better..
I'm not 100% sure if this is malicious or not, so please proceed with caution. It seems to have some kind of legitimate online/network function, and it actually plays pretty faithful to the original game.
Here's a link to the blog where it seems to have been originally released: http://pvz.lzn1007.blog.sohu.com/
I've attached the english apk for the daring.
Mods please let me know if this is too warez-y. I'll remove without hesitation.
EDIT: pvzz.apk attached below is the same thing except edited to display "Plants vs. Zombies Port" rather than Chinese charaters in the launcher. Thanks baksmali!

Yeah, I hear you. I would have a hard time believing that someone would put this much effort into making a backdoor. This is actually kinda good. Weirder things have happened, so who knows.
So, OP you've actually played this a good bit? Nothing ****ing up on your phone yet? Lol.
I love Plants vs Zombies, so this would be awesome to play, but it sounds pretty shady....

I played it. It's still installed and my phone isn't ablaze yet. I've noticed a couple bugs so far. One of the plants just refused to 'plant' on the playing field... other than that I'm fairly impressed.
About a year ago I had a call to Singapore on my bill that I *for sure* never made and I'm pretty sure it was the result of some shady app I installed on my Hero. So I would recommend caution in this situation.
Perhaps someone with a little more know-how could take a look and see if there's anything to worry about.
Played until it FC'd. It takes two presses to plant.
Nice find.
risking your phone to play a shady chinese port of a quite addictive game, count me in. downloading now haha.
super slow and choppy big time....
doesnt have "story mode"
just basically the challenge mode if you want to call it that where you pick all the plants you want for the round and the zombies start coming.
looks like someone rewrote the game, and didnt just port it over. like THEY redid all the graphics, etc etc.
good job, but has a long way to go.
but might be enough to tide some over until the real deal comes along, when ever the hell popcap decides to get onboard with android.

As long as you don't give it root permissions, which it hasn't asked for, I don't think it can do anything too damaging.
I just made it to wave 5 before the zombie on some kind of lawnmower looking thing pwned me. If anyone knows how to get the plant with a gun for a mouth to plant, let me know.
Another thing I noticed is this clearly gives you too many suns. I had like 700 when I died... couldn't plant stuff fast enough to use them all.
Ah ha! You have to drag the planes from the bar to were you want them placed.
Game is asking if I want to connect to WiYun for "amazing features".
I am always down for trying new thing. Rooted my Evo first day I got it. Same with my Palm Pre. Lets rock!
I know it's that time of year, and everyone's busy with the hustle and bustle of preparing for Christmas, or National Jew Go to a Movie day...but, I just wanna wish you all a Happy Day, no matter which one it is, and hope that your Holiday can be joyful.
And, my hope for the new year is that those here at XDA who are wound tight, can find the strength to unwind a little. Come here and enjoy this place, rather than loathe it. XDA is a place where I came a couple years ago to learn, flash, and enjoy my phone...mission accomplished. Seems lately many are caught up in what others should not be doing here, rather than what we, ourselves should. XDA is a developers forum, and we all hide behind that wall of internet anonymity, which makes it easy to be a**holes. 2012....let's lose the stink star mentality. Let's do it for sweet baby Jesus!
God bless us, each and everyone of us...whoever yours may be.
Yes, happy holiday, whatever you celebrate. totally agree Scott having fin, not being wound tight....
You said stink star..... lol

If you wanna turn those $8 worth or coins to $22 just use the free coins to buy GTA San andreas for 700 coins and it gives you 20000 coins
On the UK Amazon site, there are 9 apps, each giving 100 coins, and GTA: San Andreas is only 499 coins and you get 20,000. so I now have 24,000 coins. Thanx for that gang!!!
thanks for the tip - GTA: San Andreas is showing incompatible with my device though? still purchased, but strange it would say this. I'm stock.

You wont find it on there because its for the Kindle Fire and Fire TV....go to the Amazon store from your pc and buy it there.. You will still get the warning that you have no devices compatible, but you have the option to purchase anyway, which in turn will give you your coinage!
