Now that that's over with, let's get down to the serious business of speculating about what desserts start with the letter "L":
I'm pretty sure that the ship has sailed on "Lemon Meringue Pie" ...
Unless Google plans to make "Golden Ticket" candy contests an ongoing thing then "Lemonheads" are out too ...
In fact, once you shut down all the desserts that start with "Lemon" there isn't much left, so I'm calling it early... the next major Android OS name will be:
Lollipop
After that, it's wide open - but if there really is a Santa Claus ... please let it be "MoonPie" ... pleeeease ...

I luv Kitkats. Maybe I'll change my Infuse for an s5 next year to get kitkats
I guess S will be Smarties, the best candy to become smart!
BTW India was suggesting L for Lassi. I'm not Indian, but man the Lassi really tastes great. Addicted to it now

This is only partially on topic, but I'm guessing everyone has seen the possible photo of the new Nexus 4.
Is anyone thinking about jumping ship when Google releases their new phone? It's been my plan for the past year since I've been using an Infuse with a horribly cracked digitizer. I don't know how I feel about the likely possibility that it will be made by LG again though. I was hoping Motorola would be the manufacture because I like some of the phones they've been making lately.
Is anyone thinking about going to a different phone? I'm not on a contract so the Nexus 4 is pretty much all I can afford, but I still enjoy discussing the nice things I can't have.

any update on release of kitket ?
any update on release of kitket ? is it declared, that its going to be release in oct ?? or all is humor....

http://www.techhive.com/article/2053316/latest-android-kit-kat-leak-shows-off-new-interface.html
According to that article (and a few others), KitKat is already leaked per Nexus 5. Seems the OS is faster and not as resource heavy (which is promising for older devices like my Infuse), but reports indicate the first cut of 4.4 is a little buggy (not unusual). Seems the camera flicker is fixed (woohoo) and that there are other visual improvements. Overall, there is more good news than bad, but 4.4 appears to be more technical improvements than anything (which, again, is welcome news for Infuse, and hopefully will make it just as portable as previous versions).

Keep all conversation to this topic to already existing thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44186112
Appreciate your future attention to this.

Have a great day!

Here are the Motorola Shadow android 2.1 specs as posted at PDAdb.net:
http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=2172&id2=2184&id3=2067
I am only re-posting to this because it brings up a pet peeve of mine. And just for clarity: THE ABOVE POST WAS MADE BEFORE all the usual suspects (online phone & gadget magaizines) came out of the woodwork to steal "Alfred's" scoop -- in effect making it THEIR scoop, with not so much as a nod to the guy who acquired these now widely-seen photos.
I posted this the day I saw it and it was sourced to "Alfred's Blog" in Hong Kong.
Yet for the past 2-3 says, one by one, gizmodo, engadget, pocketnow, and all the other "lacking in original thought & content" magazines have re-posted and re-posted these images, and instead of crediting the source who got the photos, they credit the prior BLOG they got it from.
So it's all a dumb cookie crumb trail -- like pocketnow i think sources gizmodo, who sources someone else, and that source goes to engadget, and engadget got it from one other source -- who got it from "Alfred's Blog".
That in itself is annoying, and speaks to the fractured and redundant nature of this touchscreen world when it comes to those "covering" it. But whatg's worse is of you happen to follow any of these "sources" on twitter... It becomes even more blatantly empty and shallow, with PocketNow re-tweeting someone else, yet creating their own shortURL that links to, say, gizmodo's page....
I wish this incessant-Retweeting culture would face some kind of pushback from people who really don't need 100 reminders of "hey, this could be the Nexus Two!" ....
I actually have come to like twitter, where i originally hated it for its original intent" "what are you doing right now?"... But as a crowdsourcing medium now -- its better usage -- we get collaborative filtering from "human receptors" all over the world.
The problem is: Now everyone Retweets what someone initially sources, and then the permutations begin.
/mini-rant over
Yes, "everything is a copy of a copy of a copy" as a narrator once told us over ten years ago.
I totally agree about the irritating blog echoes turned to tweet echoes especially when I mistake them for reporting something new only to find out the "new" story is actually based on a two week old speculative engadget post. I have mostly come to accept this sillyness but it is indeed funny to see how a story's original facts and rumors become transformed as the story makes its way through the seeming endless bile duct of crap blogs.

Gunbound for Android ~ Online Petition

Hey guys,
Wouldnt it be nice to see Gunbound on mobile devices like Android Phones ? they are made for communicate with the Internet and have good conditions to become a home of Gunbound!
please help to let S0ftnyx know about that and support this petition and support me at :
http :// www .petitionspot. com/petitions/gunboundforandroid
(still not allowed to post links)
sure i'd ask the developer S0fTnYX, more than one time, and now i think , this is the way to^^
~~~didnt got any answers up to now
and i hope here are some ppl i share my addiction to gunbound with !
they have so many "Pro's" to work with Android!
--- Patch/updating is possible
--- open source make the developement easy
--- it will become public by itself in the market
--- hacking can reduced using same system like in Cestos!(account will be online when the phone is online!dont know much about it or how it works!maybe with google account authentication)
--- they can make money with paid avatar through it too
--- they can use better stable structured server
Thank you !

This is a very good idea!
However, softnyx has never been very close to its users
Finally, perhaps it will give ideas to other game developers...
Sorry, this won't happen. That would be a HUGE file, plus it would have to be in java. Not happening anytime soon.

It never has been close AT ALL. Do you know they delete an account after just 6 months of inactivity? Wtf kind of bull is that? What about soldiers who get sent overseas? What about people who go through trauma and are in the hospital for a while? I can't stand companies like that. More worried about their space than their users.
i think it could because they can make money with it and will be more popular
its also possible to have additional game files in internal SD card.
and like the classic client and smaller res. it could be small^^
Cool 101Signatures ;-)

You're probably better off getting a group of developers to start making an imitation game
I want to see this happen and I think it would be a very profitable move for the gunbound creators.
Are there any imitation games out there?
I MISS THIS GAME so bad
Someone interested to do sth for it?
Just i found some similar games, but except one of them nothing is close to the gunbound we know!
So who is interested, i have an idea how to start a small project ^_^

hehe.. u really r fan of gunbound.. and so am i,,

hope you like it guys...PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK SO IT CAN BE IMPROVED...
Nice App
I coach a soccer team and this App looks like it would be perfect. So far it works flawlessy. If you are looking for recommendations maybe have it so that you can look at the reals for u16 leagues u14 leagues so on and so forth because the younger you get the rules change ever so slightly but enough to make this app incorrect. It would then be usable by farrr more people. Either way a must have app for coaches, refs, players, and their parents. Always good to know the rules.
thats perfect
thats perfect, now im happy cause you are the first person telling me that found my app usefull and that it works as it should...
now i should search for fifa's book about younger ages...(in my country i thing there are u15, u17 and u21 - so i dont know what to put)...anyway i will look at this in the next 2 weeks cause am working on some other apps right now...
anw thanks for the feedback...
Does your app compensate for FIFAs idiocy?
In all seriousness, the app looks neat! Can't wait to try it.

I do not know what country you are in but in the US there is U17, U16, and U15 as well as U14, U12, U10, and U8 in most rec leagues. A good source for the U17- U15 is http://www.usyouthsoccer.org/index.html hope this helps.
thanks for the info i will take a look but as i said suddenly those 2 weeks am busy with some other apps so you dont expected an update soon...
Might want to specify it's for soccer not football for us Americans. Otherwise it worked fine for me.
i was thinking about it but i decide not to include it in order to have a short name...but i should include it in descriptions...
Im going to try this app becauze im a huge soccer fan, and most of the time i hate refs. Maybe this app lets me understand them.
i get a server error on de market,... i ll try again later..
hope you like it...

We're here live at Google I/O, and the folks from Mountain View have just shared something rather sweet -- a coalition of manufacturers and carriers committed to making sure their Android devices receive the very latest updates. All four major US carriers (and Vodafone) as well as HTC, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, LG and Motorola are on board, and all will guarantee you timely upgrades to the latest version of Android for eighteen months after release, provided the hardware's capable. Now that's change we can believe in.

Good news?
Also Honeycomb 3.1
http://www.gsmarena.com/events_roun...okia_and_microsoft_later_in_may-news-2629.php
great news. had this program been in place a year ago there wouldn't be so many bad attitudes in the vibrant forum -_-
What does "timely" mean? And does this represent a change from what they were previously doing? My impression is that most/all of these companies would say that they already roll out updates in a "timely" fashion, regardless of what we impatient users think, and that this is just a commitment not to stop doing that.
lol we'll see. i'll believe it when it happens, but my fingers are crossed cuz that'd be awesome!
don't hold your breath.
I think an actual number should be set in place like 3 months after initial release of the newest version of android? Im not sure if thats reasonable or not but the galaxy S series didnt even start getting 2.2 updates until 2.3 was released. Thats just plain wrong haha.
Google announcement bad news for G2X
This is typical Google BS - saying one thing and getting everyone ready for that, and then turning everything upside down with a different "plan".
2.4 was supposed to be a functional update for 2.3 the optimize it for dual core performance. If you search "android 2.4" - you will still see most links stating just that.
Now, from the above announcement link, it is supposed to be the end-all OS for all devices. Don't expect to see that any time soon now. The "original" 2.4 was supposed to be coming out soon, and I was looking forward to a port or possibly even an G2X/O2X update.
I am annoyed enough with Google that I suggest that take their "Ice Cream Sandwich" and stick it both up where the sun does not shine and where it will melt!
I want a duel core OS and I want it now, as per their earlier alleged plan - it was due out in April.
Bull****. We won't be seeing 2.3 anytime soon.

Tnx for testing out and giving feedback!!
ps: also available in play store...
This looks like a good idea and good fun! One Tip so far, the font is difficult to read on such a busy background.

Awesome. I am loving it especially since I am the only one in my area meaning I get in early with the buying. What I also like is that it doesn't require the checking in person to have this app and yet I still earn. Thanks for the fun of this hope it grows bigger quickly.
How Do i attack people's venues? Coz i have seen you attack me, but i cant find how to Do it, Do I need to be close to the location or something like that?
Ps, if i can help with testing something, sent me pm, I am from Belgium to
Edit : forget to update attacking is working

Hey, i saw you're from belgium
At this moment, i just want to get it bug-free, so if you encountered crashes, please report them (through google play or here). Personally, i don't have a lot of them but there's always a chance
Also, at this moment it is actually important that more users join the game so i can see how the servers react to a higher 'game load' but apparantly it is not easy to get a lot of users. Possibly, the game will die in a while
Anyway, i keep developing new features and all. Maybe you have some tips to make the game more appealing and more fun?
I try to find some new goals and badges to reach to make the game more 'game'
There is currently also some bug sometimes, due to the foursquare servers (faulty load balance / technical errors on fsq-servers). More info can be found here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ll-for-checkinscount-returns-different-values
I can't always get the correct checkins every hour. I thought i catched it in my code but apparantly this night i got $300000 dollar rent for a venue (Panos)
So this are things i still need to check out
First thing to do is also pimping the navigation style (i was thinking on a left sliding bar navigation drawer)...
But a big tnx for your interest!
By the way, play store rating and/or comment can also help
Urgently seeking someone with a 2.2 or 2.3 android version to test this app. Some are reporting force-closes but i fixed some things (sherlockactivity) and want to know if all works now for lower android versions...
Emulator seems ok though
Cant test android 2.3
But on leaked 4.3 for nexus 4 game is runing fine

the app was updated [email protected] 13' on play store.....looks nice game.....try updating the attachment
