Android Secret Image - Android General

Just wanna share an article I came across.
Android Version Secret Image
Do you want to know more about your Android phone? Well why not find the secret Flying Ice Cream Sandwich Androids on your Android 4.0 phone. If you don’t have an Android 4.0 phone don’t worry there might just be a secret image on your version too.
Are you are looking for a random fact about your android phone? How about discovering a hidden image in the about option in your settings?
The first mention of this that I found was on a YouTube post about hidden flying ice-cream sandwich androids in the newest Android version (Android 4.0). If you are lucky enough to have a phone that is running Android 4.0 here is how you access the flying ice cream sandwich.
Go to your Settings and then scroll to the bottom and go into the About option. Now scroll down to the “Android Version” description and press it several times quickly, you should now see this image:
That’s not all though, press and hold down on the image and you will get access to the flying ice cream sandwiches, and they look like this:
When I saw this I got curious and decided to see if my version (Android 2.3.6) had anything behind the Android Version description. What I found was Zombie Art by Jack Larson with an Android hanging out with the zombies.
This for me defines what Android and its developers are about. The platform is designed for users to take it and morph into what they need and want. The developers of the software seem to infuse this sense of humour into the platform not because it’s good for marketing but just because it’s fun, that’s my opinion anyway.
Have you got a different version of Android? What’s behind your Android Version description?

Confirmed working with ICS and JB. Custom ROM also.
That is NICE!

Ahahah!!! Nice one!

Kinda surprised not everyone knew about this... Anyway,
Gingerbread-> Zombie art
Honeycomb-> Buzzing Bee
ICS-> Nyan Droid
Jellybean-> Jellybeans
These are called Easter Eggs, and Google loves such thing. Just like those things you could do on the Google Search web (like do a barrel roll).

+1 on this. Just like Halo, CoD and GTA (along with virtually every other console game that exists) android has its own Easter egg.!!

If any one is running a Cyanogenmod ROM. In the same screen in settings. Click on Cyanogenmod version like you would on the Android version. Instead of Jelly Beans you get something else.

[Game] Minecraft level engine test (Update: now can place blocks!)

For those of you who are Minecraft fans, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-9K8ZQTOMY is a video of a guy who got the engine running on his Galaxy S. He released the apk and directions yesterday. The apk is here and directions are here. To install, you install the apk but you also need to extract your .minecraft folder from your pc with the directory structure on your sd card /sdcard/.minecraft/saves/World1. Links to two of my saves, confirmed to work by a friend are here and here. Just extract the zip to your sdcard. The first one is my main save, which I recommend trying, but the second one is a fresh world that is much smaller in case the first one doesn't work. I believe those files are ok to share because they are only saves and this app is in no way currently a replacement for the full game. If anyone finds out differently, I'll gladly take the files down. It is easy enough to use your own files from your own minecraft installation on your PC. Now that he has created a google code project for minedroid solely, here's the new link: code.google.com/p/minedroid He has a new video of the brand new interface.
Btw, THIS IS NOT MY APP, I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR IT OTHER THAN UPLOADING MY SAVES FOR CONVENIENCE.
This is awesome! Works like a charm on my Galaxy S.
Thank you for informing about it

Kind of. It's a render test as a proof of concept for minecraft, a rather popular indie game for the pc.

This is really a swsome game
Once everything is ironed out, this could be really awesome...possibly even epic!

Define messed up. Glitchy looking or just not what they look like on PC? On all devices, for some reason, the textures don't match the PC version.
Works on my Samsung Galaxy Europa
Works fine on my Europa but the controls are a bit awkward....
I love it lol. Thanks for sharing
Sorry for the bump but I think the new update warrants it.
I....am.....keen! Minecraft rules, I will be definitely giving this a go
Oh god... it's...... EPIC!

I uploaded 2 of my saves in the first post. The first one is my main save but the second is a brand new world like you are asking for.
This is definitely an awesome app.
The controls are a little off for me on my Mytouch Slide, but it's workable.
Asked the creator to see if he can help out with the smaller resoulution. Might get an apk to test.
I kinda wish he would continue on and make it full-fledged... but that's up to Notch and Mojang!

Android Apps?

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question but what are the best mind blowing android apps paid/free that would possibly blow OS iphone out the window ??
swype! not available at the market, but you can sign up for the beta at swype.com
also google sky map.
Hmmm. It got to be all of the Google apps. Swype. SIPDroid. Google Voice (lol which is a google app). Springpad.
Yeah, pretty much all the Google apps. Plus the Super Nintendo emulator AutoDesk Sketchbook Mobile Express is pretty awesome too. As for Swype, it was there on my phone when I got the thing (LG Optimus S).
Aside from that, I'm new to Android myself so I'm curious to see what other people have to say as well.
Google Earth - Or has that been introduced to iPhone? I can't remember...but I personally LOVE it.

Yeah! And best: Apple doesn't want emulators on their phone.
And if you need to impress iPhone Users even more, just show them a youtube video inside the browser - one which says "not for mobile devices" in the youtube app. In dolphin mini I open the youtube video, go down the page an choose "Desktop" for this.

To all those having compatibility issues, it seems to be different roms causing issues... This is really weird because it wouldn't work on my phone when I was running a certain rom than others it worked fine...
Also to those leaving terrible ratings such as
"Ewww... Wth? Why was this garbage featured on xda? April fools was 10 days ago. Geez..." -Waqar
The game is meant be a joke to screw around with. If you want something to be changed please provide feedback that is HELPFUL. This goes for all apps you download. Leave a comment saying what you DONT LIKE to hopefully get that changed. Believe it or not developers listen to your feedback. So please, even if you rate it 1 star at least say why and not just call the app garbage or april fools. -end rant
It also says its not compatible with my T-mobile G2/Desire Z, or transformer.

Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies

Before I start, I have no clue as to what forum this should be here. This seemed like the obvious option.
"Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies is now available for Android! Experience Zombies on the go with a fully replicated Kino der Toten and 50 levels of the cult-favorite Dead Ops Arcade." From their Official Blog
I can't see it on Google Play. Can anyone else?
Again, move/delete this thread if it's placed incorrectly.

When will people learn that ANY developer making anything on Android is a pain in the ass for them. Yes iOS gets more updates but that's because they are developing for a very small number of phones. Anyone got a count of the total number of Android phones, me thinks it might be a f'in lot!
1.8 GB? Is it really that great?

I can deal with them releasing the games waaaay latter than iOS even if its dumb... but a quick glance at their facebook page, they have deals on games, majority of the time almost newly released, whereas nothing for android.

Yeah...bought and refunded...Didn't seem worth the $0.25 for the size and gameplay.
I got stuck with the purchase, didn't play it with enough time to see how not worth the 25cents it was.
Maybe when playing it on a tablet it'll be better. But it feels so cluttered too Mich on screen, camera right behind batman.

More than worth it!
Excellent graphics, sound, voice acting and controls. High resolution textures take up a lot of space but definitely worth it. Would like to see more variety in combat. $0.25 is a must buy, even to just show off the graphics.
Use the six axis app and create a touch profile. I use it for almost all my games on my galaxy tab.
