It depends what kind of music-making app you're looking for.
If you want score notation, Ensemble Composer Pro
Pocketbeats/FL Studio have Android versions as well if you're looking to make music without the notation
There are a few things here and there. What kind of music-making are you looking for?

Thanks for the reply. At the moment, I am not sure what kind I am looking for. I am trying to get an idea of what's available but most likely an app that adds music notation is what I need.

Avoid anything requiring real time input as latency on Android is horrific. So my honest advice is to buy an iPad if you want to create on a tablet. Better yet buy a laptop for the same price and run Reason. Job done.

App that adds music notation, Ensemble Composer Pro would be your best choice. Everything else is single-track oly, but if you can live with that that shouldn't be a problem.
Sadly in terms of music composition apps, Android isn't quite there yet...not ones that require full-on notation and traditional score anyway.

I wish there were some developers here that could fix the latency since Google has no plans to do anything about it. The music apps are the one thing I miss from iOS. The number of people this would be useful too seems to be a very small minority though.

They said they'd address it (or at least look into it more) prior to ICS iirc. It did get a little better but it's still horrible.

Netflix instant streaming...

Anyone know if we'll be getting that ability? I know the iphone had it, makes me jealous haha.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Netflix did have a job posting earlier in the year suggesting that they were looking for an Android developer.
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/netflix-targeting-streaming-for-android-with-latest-job-posting
Rumor has it Netflix will have a streaming Android player soon, hopefully very soon.
For now we'll wait. I wish they just used flash instead of the special plugin they require. If you change ur UA String to desktop and try to stream a movie, it asked you to install their silverlight plugin.

haha wow really. Now i just need an app that sends a message to a satellite and then it sends a laser beam to scratch my ass... (got it from a movie)
Google TV is going to support netflix is it not? and that is just android
I believe the Netflix support is because of GTV has Chrome built-in and has the tools necessary to play it. There's an Android app in dev that targets mobile phones and tablets.
its coming give it a few...im sure it will have a better ui than the one on the iphone.
Soooo amped for this. The "workday" will be so much more fun now...lol

Question about streaming. Does 4G affect streaming audio/video or does it just affect downloading/uploading a file(s)?
Figured this would be a good place to post this, but is there a good Netflix app to just manage my movies and such?
Have you tried PhoneFlicks or QueueMan? I use PhoneFlicks and it works well, I've never used QueueMan but have heard it works well too.

Vehicle inspection app needed

I am looking for an app that i can use to do vehicle inspections, i am in charge of inspecting all the used cars that my dealer group buys and right now i am just doing it the old fashioned way i would like it to be a full blown software that will allow me to input pictures and then make a final report that i can email to the next person.
i have found a few things but no luck
i like this but the company has yet to get back to me
www.inspect2go.com/inspection/vehicle/
how hard would this be?
can anyone help?
thanks
matt
can anyone help out or direct me in a way?
I don't think you will find such an app in the market at the moment i'd suggest to use oldschool methods but i do know there is a few app to test torque and such
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
I think this is a great idea more generally. If there's a developer out there I think automotive support apps would be tremendously useful for a lot of people. I would pay for something that let me keep track of what maintenance I need to do and how to do it.
I was considering developing on MiUI styled messaging application for non MiUI roms. But at heart I am a data driven developer. If you want, contact me by inbox and we can see if this is possible and how easy it would be to implement. Obviously the clearer the specs, the easier it is to get started on a project like this
Perhaps something like evernote or extensive notes might work for you.

[Q] What's the best music streaming service for Android?

Hey guys,
So I discovered the music streaming service called "deezer".
It's pretty cool, has a good interface online and as an app and has offline support.
Well so far so good. It costs 10€ per month, which is okay to have me.
Sooo my question is if there is something better out there with a bigger library and better android support
Hope you can give me some advice and recommendations.
Thanks in advance.

I usually just uncheck screenorientation and then use snote in "landscape" i find snote better cos it has other cool features. I have physics course at school now and I honestly have no idea on the math part cos its been 2 years since my last physics course. Luckily I just bought my note 10.1 and I do all my homework (when I do) with it and when im on a lesson im the first one to finish our tasks cos i use snote my teacher asked me how i suddenly can do it so fast and i told her that im just so freaking good. I'd like to see her face when shes checking my exam which I obviously have to do without my note.. that's a little off topic but I find it to be a very good example on how good our device actually is

Okie guy, Note 10.1 is useful for study, however, i think Snote should have much more improved.
In my job, i have a lot of meeting and i often use mindmap to take notes. So i'm looking forward a useful application to do that.

Yeah it could be much better I agree hope they develop snote more cos it has a lot more potential than it actually shows right now. Maybe the most important feature for me is splitscreen which sadly doesnt work on other applications..

Did anyone come to any further conclusions. I've had a look around the play store, and the main options I can see that remain even remotely affordable are:
- mindmeister
- simplemind
- iMindMapHD (more pricey)
- connected mind
- snote with shapes enabled (I find these hard to edit)
But none claim any form of stylus support
Any feedback on which are the most usable for quick editing, navigation, use of handwriting (to name a node, or add notes to a node) and especially any comments on whether or not the spen helps

Hi,
I try iMindmapHD, however it doesn't support spen. Now, i usually use Qill App to draw and take notes. This application supports to draw lines and shapes too. I can try.
Have fun.
Mindjet
I've been using the Mindjet program in windows version for years. I've tried many Android apps, but I went back to Mindjet because
1. It works the way I do.
2. You can customize the look a great deal.
3. You can standardize node to make it easier to recognize later.
4. The files are compatible with the Windows version.
Your mileage may vary.

Interesting idea, but the app is £5.50, has no comments & minimal description -- though the pictures look nice
Any app at that price needs either a demo period and/or restricted free version so that the user can see if it's suitable
http://elevenworks.com/touchdraw-features/ gives some info (though android isn't listed on their website), though again it's unclear how usable the s-pen might be, or the app generally.
I've sent them some questions at https://twitter.com/touchdraw

It'll help, but not make it free. He stated the cost of TouchDraw is £5. On the market here in Canada the cost of the app is $13.50.
With that said, how do I get this $5 USD voucher?

Good mind mapping app?

Can anyone recommend a good mind mapping app for android? I've looked at imindmap but it seems kind of expensive for my needs. Just need something that's fairly simple to use and will allow me to insert images and links, as well as label the branches themselves.
Thanks in advance

I also use SimpleMind. Does everything I want it to. :3
Been testing out simple mind, it's ok I guess but a little intuitive in places, especially when it comes to drop box syncing.
Mind jet kept giving me an error when I tried to register so I can't even test it.
Thanks for the suggestions so far though

Connected Mind looks halfway decent, but it's $2.99 and I didn't see a trial. Supports lots of shapes, image import, etc.

Not seeing that in the play store even when searching from play.google.com - could you provide a link if it is in the play store? When I tried it as "dropmind" nothing and as "drop mind" it comes up with SimpleMind which has a free and paid version.
DropMind doesn't have an android app. You can connect to their service for free with the browser. Not a good option if you have a wi-fi only tablet like me.
