Yes I understand GPUs are important for other things. Thread title is a joke. But check this out...OnLive . Basically OnLive is going to try running their services to tablets (doing the game computing in the cloud). I am totally willing to try this! Imagine xbox/ps3 like games on your tablet or even your phone.
I tried it, it worked. I played Dirt 3 on my phone. The visual quality may not be the greatest though, might depend on the data speed/connection or something?
I noticed that too. It's like you're watching a video of a video

Their servers only support 720p atm is why it looks so odd but they did say 1080p was a future goal. Other than that this thing is pretty great.

I could only download it on my Xoom and not on my Nexus S so for ppl not able to download it this is a working apk.
Btw I'm in Belgium and can play pretty good on both my nexus S and Xoom over wifi but well like you can guess on the nexus S the screen is a bit to small

thanks for the apk

This is terrible advice. Don't buy something that isn't popular? Really? If I had gone by that rule I'd never have bought my HD2 or my Evo View & I'd have missed out on two excellent devices. Just because something is popular doesn't mean it's the best.
Here's some advice that everyone can follow- do your research, go to the store & play with different devices, and buy whichever one you like best.

Well, I don't think thats a good advice, my advice is before buying a phone like the galaxy s2, look for issues about it in the internet and try it out before you buy it.
I regret saying that Engadget's article about the screen issue wasn't that noticeable and they had it on a really dark place etc. Now i'm noticing that every darn day.

Windows mobile is a slow and laggy phones. Phones should be released so they don't need to be hacked. It should be because the owner wants to. That's my opinion on it

You know this is one of the most selling phones in the world right.... Right?

If you have not purchased one yet. I would suggest the GNEX. It has exceeded my expectations and ICS OS is pretty nice.
I would agree Nexii are amazing devices. But when I choose a device I take a look here on XDA, see what the development community is like and then i will get it
Hey guys, just got the game "Horn" from the Play Store for $0.25 today. I'm getting an issue where the game refuses to load. Not even for once second before it crashes back to the launcher. Just wondering if any of you have been able to get it to work.
Also, it's a good idea to buy it now for super cheap so when the bug is fixed we get a free update.

Its only for tegra devices... it says they are working on it for other non tegra devices... it will be awhile. I knew it wouldn't load. But I bought it for the 25 cents... so later I save 5 bucks
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
I figured it wouldn't show for our devices if it wasn't compatible. Oh well, it's not like I lost anything. I'll save it for when I get my N7.
I just thought it was weird how it crashed, didn't even attempt to load. Made me think it just scanned the build.prop and shut it down when it didn't find "endeavor". If only ChainFire3D worked for JB I think we could get this to run.

It says optimized for tegra 2 and 3. It didn't say it required it. This makes me upset. They better get it working for us.

Runs amazing on the Nexus 7, highly reccomended. Gameplay is very good and played for while before getting bored(1 sitting I mean, still love the game), which is more that I can same for most games. 7 in screen size is perfect for games like this.
Could probably get this to run on ICS with Chainfire 3D. I might switch back to Cleanrom to try it.

Uh, you have to be more specific. What do you want to do with the tablet? Are you an Apple person, or an Android person? 7'? 8.9"? 10"?
you can try the galaxy note tablet
I'm looking for an android tablet. Either a 7" or 10". I was looking between the galaxy tabs 2 both in 7" and 10". Kinda read mixed reviews.

I would YouTube galaxy2 tab vs galaxy note and use spec difference. My personal opinion the note would be my choice because galaxy tab can be hassle with fc even in basic stock. But you gotta find the difference there
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I have a tab 2 10.1. It hasn't had any fc or problems. It also doesn't have very much dev support. It runs well for me, it's rooted, and I use it for watching movies and surfing the web.
Look into the note tablet and the nexus 7. Those are better tablets as far as specs go. They probably also have more dev support. Up to you though, the tab 2 works just fine for me.

Just got myself a nexus 7. Can't give a review or anything as I haven't even unboxed it yet. Personally, I wanted the nexus 10 but its just not in my budget right now. Little brother has an account through newegg so settled for that. Same price as it is through the play store too.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda
I've had a nexus 7 for a few months now. I love it. The constant android os updates are a huge plus for me. There's pretty good dev support, too. For the price, I'm shocked at how much I like it.
There are a few bugs with the screen. Some users report a horizontal line of burnt pixels developing, and other users report blurry edges. My nexus 7 developed the horizontal line last week. I made a three minute phone call and a new nexus 7 arrived two days later. Not bad at all. I've read the screen issues have been fixed as of now.
Oh, it's also easy as heck to root and maintain. Rooting took me less than 10 minutes from start to finish.
Edit:
It depends if u really want a similar experience as the skyrocket. I imagine the Samsung tablets may be a good pick. I found the uber clean stock Android 4.2 system on the N7 was simple enough for me to bounce and forth between the skyrocket and not go bald or blind from stress.

Im on ICS.. go figure..this doesnt really upset me due to the fact that im getting a new phone ( Droid DNA ) Wednesday!
I don't think it's worth it. The old one looks way more organised and simple. I won't even bother installing the new Store's .apk
Well that's my opinion, you may like it better
Mine just installed automatically when I connected to the wifi.
solution
You have to go to services and clean the cache on the market processes. I had to do that with my droid x a long time ago.
Sometimes it just takes a while. On my phone once, I cleared it and force stopped it several times and it didn't update until a couple hours later.

No. I, too, think the new one looks hideous. Too much like it's trying to be iOS for my taste.

I believe the new one looks hideous, the old one is way better. But of course, we will get used to it in the future (do we have any other choice?).
Anyway, to answer the thread, it depends on the country you are in. Usually, they update per country (if it is available to you).
I need ideas on a new tablet. My wife has this note 8.0 which is rather nice to me but... if I was gonna spend $200-250 is there anything else I should get rather than a note 8.0?
I love custom roms.. I'd love an IR blaster.. larger screen is a maybe.. I'd love it to last two years before abandon by the community.
I don't want a 7in really.. they feel cheap. I don't want less than 1.5gb ram, I don't need 3/4g- simply wifi
Thanks for the ideas!

I recommend the LG GPad. Out of the tablets I've had its my favorite and Newegg has it for around $230 :good:
Wow OK after looking that up it looks exactly like what after!
A couple of concerns.. Just from reading the new egg reviews people complain of over heating, the brightness messing with image quality and battery life being terrible.
Are these fixed with just flashing CM11? I've know LG software to be terrible usually so I'd point fingers there before the hardware.
Still open for suggestions! But that's amazing spec wise for the price. Wonder if Best Buy will price match it lol

I've had no issues aside from the low battery life. The brightness isn't the greatest but its still perfectly acceptable once you get it above 40.
I've tried a lot of the different roms and actually for me the best is the flashable stock kitkat that's available on the forums. All the others had various issues wifi, gps and general bugs. While the stock isn't the overall fastest its very stable and I still get almost 27000 in antutu.
Best Buy will pricematch Newegg but their running very low on supply.
I bought the GPad and the Samsung 8.4 Pro at the same time and kept the Gpad as the Samsung killed my eyes with the brightness and very small text. I think you would be happy with the Gpad :good:
Edit is your name Nathan?
Yes my name is Nathan. I've had the handle of talk2nate since about '93. Not very cool these days but its mine everywhere lol.
I'll have to see if they have that pad in stock. They offer a 15 day return so maybe I'll try it.
