On a boring party?
Follow these steps:
1. Grab your android device
2. Open android market
3. Search for BeerTimer
4. Download BeerTimer
5. Make boring party a success!
No seriously, I have developed an nice little app that lets your android phone time how fast one can drink fluids! It uses your phones acceleration to sense when the table it lays on is being hit.
Usage: Lay phone on a table, hit the table once to start the stopwatch, then again to stop the time. One use is to time how fast one can drink fluids (beer chug game).
Or if you don't drink bear, then it's just a great stopwatch with a beer in the background!

Haha you're right, we do a little chugging here in Missouri.
I'd like to suggest some type of leader-board or someway to save high scores, for review the next day.

That is on the way! Not sure when im done with it. Thinking about give people able to register for referee rights so that they can verify times and upload them to a global scoreboard!

I got a tip about using facebook for scores. And a way to create local tournaments (aka at house party) with dedicated referees. Any thoughts?

Damn, i'm a wimp. Regular 12oz can of beer 14 seconds. Gotta work on my chugging. Thank you, this app just opened my eyes as to Joe slow I am.

If this is a serious question, there is a brief explanation in the app as well in the description.
You have a bottle/can of beer. You hit the table which the phone is running this app on and start to chug the beer. When you are done, you smack the can/bottle in the table and the timer stops.

Nexus 10 Leaked

http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/26/google-nexus-10-leaks-android-tablet/
What do you guys think? Ugly but powerful is what I have to say. Exynos 5 Dual is ARM Cortex A15.

If it is priced correctly then it be awesome, but I don't think Samsung would price it cheaper than Note 10.1, unless they are not direct competitors of each other...

Hey fred. I can't wait for it to be announced on monday (hopefully). I will probably be picking one up. It's not the looks, it's specs that get me. Hell it will be in a case anyway lol

Yeah, I was thinking it looks like a Tab 2/Note 10.1 (blech), but the specs are very appealing.

Depending on the amount of storage id give up my Asus for it.

which asus tablet you going give up for this? I might ditch my tf300t if it comes with sd-card slot....
Edit: re-read the article if it's true that it has no sd-card that's going be a bummer:crying:

If they offer more than 16 GB of storage at a reasonable price point I'll replace my Tab2 for this.
Am I the only one glad a manufacturer has finally realized that speakers belong on the front of a device where sound is directed toward the user rather than in some random direction away?

I may get booed for this but I like the phone UI on the N7 and 10. I'm a fan! I wish my 7.7 had that UI. I'm a bigger fan of the specs on the 10. I hope I'm a fan of the price tag though.
Nice thread Fred! :beer:

I actually agree with you. It's not bad if you think about it. The iPad does it and it works fine (sorry to compare to the iPad :silly. It's less cluttered.
And thanks for the compliment. I'm trying to be more useful around the site; I used to help out a LOT and now I find myself lounging in the Marketplace thread way too much.

Am I the only one who thinks it's ugly?

I do too. At least we know what it's based off of:

If it looks like that, its going to lose sales based on its ugliness alone. If I was looking for a tablet, I'd see the specs of this thing, decide to buy it. Then I actually see it, and im like "ewwwwww"

Support Ryan Scott of CyanogenMod! [Please Read]

Ryan Scott of the CyanogenMod team (you may know him better as ChiefzReloaded) has contracted a rare, flesh-eating virus.
CyanogenMod said:
A member has had a pretty serious problem fall into his lap. +Ryan Scott (aka ChiefzReloaded), a device maintainer, has a rare infection known as Necrotizing Fasciitis. This infection is caused by bacteria that eats skin, fat, and other tissue; it is literally a flesh-eating disease. Ryan is going through the treatments that he needs to keep him alive, but unfortunately, that treatment quickly becomes very expensive to deal with, and it is no exception for Ryan. This disease has placed an incredible strain on him and his family, including his young children. The CyanogenMod team would love to be able to hand out a fistful of cash and help out as much as possible.

Wikipedia said:
Necrotizing fasciitis (/ˈnɛkrəˌtaɪzɪŋ ˌfæʃiˈaɪtɪs/ or /ˌfæs-/) or NF, commonly known as flesh-eating disease or flesh-eating virus, is a rare infection of the deeper layers of skin and subcutaneous tissues, easily spreading across the fascial plane within the subcutaneous tissue.
Necrotizing fasciitis is quickly progressing, having greater risk of developing in the immunocompromised due to conditions like diabetes, cancer, etc. It is a severe disease of sudden onset and is usually treated immediately with high doses of intravenous antibiotics.

Up, this needs to stay on top. But not as a sticky so that those who use the xda app could also see it immediately Since I'm still 15, I don't have a credit card yet and I can't send money. But I would definitely talk to my father about this and try to persuade him to have a good heart, and of course I'll pray for Ryan. But if any of you there is an atheist or agnost, then just please don't start flaming me

Bump. This needs to stay up top. Wish I was old enough to donate

BUMP Again! I wish him all the best. Will donate when I get home.

I wish him the very best. I can't imagine the pain him and his family and friends are going through.
I am 13 though. And, I'm not in the position to help.
I have never tried the CM ROM, ever. When I was about to, my phone was stolen.
But, I shall pray.
Like the guy a few posts above me said, if you're atheist, don't flame me.
Actually, I'll just report. Not a big deal.
Anyway, I wish him the best.

°°PROTEST°° NFL app won't run on rooted phones

As per the subject heading, the NFL's official app chose to not allow access to users with rooted devices.
It seems more and more app makers (from larger companies) are making this decision, and, obviously, it's lame... and of course they have the right to do this (so please don't argue that point) but it goes against the concept of Android's openness.
So, even if you have no interest in the NFL, I encourage all of you to download the app from the play store and review it at 1 STAR as a sign of protest. I've seen the app's rating go from 4.7 to 4.0 in the last couple days due to all the rooted users protesting the NFL's choice to do this.
Cheers

Will do. But from what I've read on The Verge, the update doesn't really serve any good purpose because its confused about its own utility and still scattered

Must be USA only I can't see it. Another reason to give it 1 star

Do I want one?

Hey guys,
I'm really considering buying a nexus 5 but I just thought the smart thing to do instead of googling is asking real people how they feel about the phone.
So please tell me your likes and dislikes about this phone!
I have a couple of queries though,
Not being able to touch the battery or ext SD card is a bit concerning because if there is a battery fault or I exceed internal memory, I'm screwed. Is this a real issue or am I not giving Google enough credit???
Thanks

Just reset the tamper flag and relock.
Super easy. But I'm sure google doesn't care. After all, all you do to unlock the bootloader is 'fastboot oem unlock'

Google has personally emailed me back that rooting will not void warranty. The rep was also cool enough to tell me that I can change the hastamper flags since I'm with LG

Battery life is surprisingly well on Nexus 5. I was using the HTC one before and it has the same amount of battery but the Nexus 5 is better in my usage. On mid usage you can easily get through full day without charging. The other thing is the camera I know it's only 8mp but it's really not that bad you will be impressed. The most important thing is that the Nexus 5 is the best Android phone until Google releases a new one. You decide.
Sent from my Google Nexus 5.

Just to add:
When your phone is rooted, you easily are able to Flash a new Kernel in order to get an even more perfect battery life.

Like:
speed, updates, sufficient battery, best display, consistent camera, excellent call quality (voice and earpiece), good audio output
Dislike:
speakers, headphone jack placement

There's like a million of these threads. Just read the existing ones and make your own decision
