Today i was suppose to get a Motorola Xoom but after seeing the garageband app for the ipad 2 im reeling..... first off i'm a musician so when something like garageband comes out im all geeked up...& disappointed at the same time because im a android junkie and wish that someone can port it or create the equivalent for android. CAN ANYONE PORT GARAGEBAND!!! to the Xoom
Port? Get me the source and ill do it
Good luck.

Sounds like you should just go buy an iPad.
'Port' would be the wrong term here...or for any iOS app. 'Clone' would be better...and then you can bet Old Man Steve would be around the corner with a patent or trademark lawsuit.
Garageband
I second the motion for a clone of this app, I played with it at Verizon while waiting for my Xoom. I hate CRAPPLE and would never waste my money on their junk, but this was a fun app.
I'm really interested in this also and feel the same way as the OP. Im looking to buy the transformer or the xoom but im have second thoughts because of GarageBand. I love Honeycomb more than iOS and I really don't want to get an ipad because of 1 app (nothing else lures me to the ipad) but do you think there's ever going to be an equivalent to GarageBand?
I'm guessing Garageband-esque apps are not optimal for phones so nobody has really invested much into it b4 honeycomb came out, but do you think big companies like Avid and Sony or FLStudio invest in an app? Those are professional level companies and therefore their products are really expensive, but I don't see any other companies going into this market.
If you guys have any other insight or ideas let me know, this is a real killer. I would love something simple and intuitive exactly like GarageBand to have around with my tab and dabble ideas in. Sometimes I feel like the reason for Ipads success is because of the creative apps it has and hopefully the honeycomb devs can do the same.
Well, I didn't even know what GarageBand was until a few minutes ago - but there was an app that I played with a year or so ago - but it was limited to 8 tracks to mix with.
Not that it was better than this, or even equivalent, but it's a start.
Otherwise, I would think it would take months to get a piece of software even close to this. Especially since Androids built in Audio Controls are pretty much junk(up to 2.3 at least, so maybe HC has better), so all the EQ adjustments would be incredibly difficult.
did somebody found a way to port this app??
And the point of reviving a dead 1.5+ year old thread was what exactly?

Port of Garageband app to Xoom ?
I'm extremely intrigued by this likewise and feel indistinguishable route from the OP. Im hoping to purchase the transformer or the xoom yet im have apprehensions in view of GarageBand. I adore Honeycomb more than iOS and I truly would prefer not to get an ipad as a result of 1 application (nothing else draws me to the ipad) yet do you believe there's regularly going to be a proportionate to GarageBand?
All things considered, I didn't comprehend what GarageBand was until a couple of minutes prior - however there was an application that I played with a year or so back - yet it was restricted to 8 tracks to blend with.
Not that it was superior to this, or even proportionate, however it's a begin.
Else, I would figure it would take a very long time to get a bit of programming even near this. Particularly since Androids worked in Audio Controls are practically junk(up to 2.3 at any rate, so perhaps HC has better), so all the EQ alterations would be fantastically troublesome.
One of Androids larger problems, and I know this is something Google say they have improved in ICS, it just isn't an entertaining OS to use day to day.. Don't get me wrong I love my Transformer but actually interacting with it has become a bit meh. Since installing Miui, CM or even a hacked port of Sense isn't on the cards does anyone have any suggestions on how to breath new life into the tablet?
Thanks.
Well when I.C.S arrives, you will be able to use custom Roms firstly in the form of CM9.

This will pave the way for MIUI, and beyond.
The life of the Transformer is only just beginning.

Entertaining! What do you want it to do? A little dance for you? Its an OS not a TV show!

Write your own tablet operating system for it, and design the UI you want. See you in thirty years.

No need to be so harsh. I'm sure we all think this at certain moments
Get involved more in Android. Maybe take up java as a hobby and create your own apps, or make your own themes. You can also try setting up and designing different layouts (like Hubs). Every OS gets boring if you just use it on a basic level. Start customizing it and it will get a whole lot better. And like buzzboy said, once we get a ICS port (hopefully someone is working on this already) and CM9, we will have a lot more customization. Unless every hops on the Prime wagon, which I hope doesn't happen until I pick it up
I try to change my phone and tablet's layout almost every week just to always have a refreshed experience.
My apologies if the OP finds that harsh as well, didn't really mean it that way. But I've gotta admit, give or take the headaches it'd keep a TF from being dull for a long time lol.

Paint "Don't Panic" on the bezel and start reading the entire wiki.
Damn...good thing you didn't get an iPad...but then again...the iPad does have jiggling icons.

Uhm, well, I don't know what you expected. A Playstation/XBox? A desktop replacement that lasts a lot of hours?
An Android tablet is, at least to me, more of a time saver and productivity improver than a time filler. I use it to check news/mails/feeds/.. write some articles, create office elements and, in my spare time, I do play aswell some games. But thats the rare case.
So, if you don't have anything to do with yours, I'd recommend selling it and investing into something that fits you.
wow op is an idiot. i wonder if he sits there and yells at his tablet
"do something you boring tablet, dance , dance dance"

For my two cents: I find that Android tablets should be utilized and marketed for what netbooks were marketed for, hence the net; but in reality a netbook is just a budget laptop in a form factor that used to cost *a lot* more than a normal laptop. The difference is you're trading a PC optimized OS for a Mobile Phone optimized one.

This is what happens when you buy a tablet as a toy. Plenty of people seem to get off on installing programs and customizing their computers and other tech gadgets --almost like how lots of people work endlessly on their cars but don't actually give a crap about driving them.
I prefer to drive...and to use my gadgets as tools.
dont think its the tablet thats dull, more the content on the tablet. look for some new games and apps to play with.
or go out!
Oh I didn't buy it as a toy its my companion device and a damn good one at that. All I meant was that in its current state the UI isn't as gratifying to use over time as say Sense UI Miui or dare I say the ill fated webOS products.
And ladies and gents is it really necessary to throw around insults because I criticised the UI on a product I own and quite like? I am not criticising you or your choice of purchase by saying the Transformer is less than perfect. Lets act like adults here shall we?
Putting that way..then i agree with the OP..
Different framing of the topic might have been in order..
As said in another thread..I am only missing multitasking in that windows or tabs..
An example if a perfect day with my Tranny..
6.45am wakeup check emails transfer the movies,shows and books for trip
12pm 1st plane..movie
Stopover..check emails..have a chat with family via Skype..
2.30pm 2nd plane.. movie..bit if a read of a Pdf..
5.30- hotpot dinner with staff.. a bit of a flick thru of customer case studies setup as frames.. wow factor
9pm.. back to hotel..plug in hdmi watch a bit Hawaii5o..
11pm finish..
A big day with me and my tranny travelling for work around China..

Try Onlive
Try Onlive. Been keeping me busy lately. Love Warhammer. Nothing like running desktop games on my Transformer.
First this isn't requesting a Pokedroid Rom.
I have an R4i SDHC 3DS, and as few know. It allows you to play back ups of any DS game, and Rids region locks.
Now I'm a hardcore Pokemon Fan, and being such a fan. I've played every Pokemon game ever, about 5 times. Then one day I stumbled across something called Pokemon Pitch Black, Pure White.
Which is a custom made Pokemon Rom, making the game about 10x harder Now I'm looking for things like that, but I don't now where to look! I'm sure one user has a website filled with Custom Roms. I did come across one a long time ago, but IDK whats the URL :3
http://www.arkeis.com/romhacks.html
So can anybody help me out? I'm bored, and wanna take a break from Skyrim. I want to get my Ask Ketchum on
Just to play off any Rule breaking. I do own ALL Pokemon games legally , and use my own legal backups for the Mods.
Has that custom rom been hacked in a way where you can actually catch all of the pokemon? After a while, I couldn't find any more friends to trade with. Never got a full pokedex, considering how much you have to trade to complete it
Loved the games. Ah, it almost made going to weddings, errands with my mom, the drives in the car, and all the other useless times in my life worth it

Better full games from the big name companies. Games being made for us at the same time they are being made for home consoles. The Sony game store done rite would be nice. There is no reason Sony can't port ps1, ps2, and psp games to us. A way for us to wirelessly mirror our screen to a monitor or TV without the use wifi or internet. I know that's very out there, but would be an awesome future way to use these phones with controllers as a wireless gaming system. Yes I have wifi, to do this, but annoying. Xbox,ps2, and gamecube emulators will be great, can't wait for that, but I know they are yrs away.

Waterproof, so they can be used while taking a shower, or in the pool/ocean, under the rain, or when taking a dump without fear of toilet induced death.

I think this will be usual very soon. Sony already makes lots of waterproof phones. My next will be waterproof for sure
Other than thar I just wish that more feautures will be available I'm Europe as well. Like Google music and books and such. It's taking forever.
There is on thing on the iPhone I really see as great, and that's iMessage. It's just great how it is integrated in the system and automatically switches. I wish Google made something similar. Don't tell me about third party apps which requires both to sign up and stuff, it is the way it just works (I know) which seems amazing

So I am a huge android gamer. I do not have a pc except at work and i do not have any console systems at home. I am really loving the development that is going on with some stuff Ive seen. Unity 3d and cloud gaming is gonna be huge i think.
My goal with this thread is to try to gather some of us android gamers together. I play all day at work and at home. I need something more than Modern Combat 4 haha. Its a great game but im looking for some huge sprawler. I have seen wildblood from gameloft, looks amazing. I am trying to figure out what people are playing on this device. maybe develop a little support thread for us gamers to unite and share what we have found with each other. I havent really been able to find anything about it anywhere for our device. seems all the attention is always on the one x. our phones are powerful....lets unleash it!
I agree. I'm down to play whatever multi player/coop games we have. Let me know!!

re
I would be too. I guess MC4 multi is only on wifi, but im sure there are some good things out there. I really am sort of enjoying Aralon. Played it?
Am i to assume that really no one plays any games on our device?!
Its too small to do any serious gaming on
What do you mean too small? I play stuff on it all the time. Classic games for sure. I even tried OnLive and demoed the free demo for Darksiders 2 and it worked awesome. Im trying to figure out pairing my ps3 controller for better use, but you could even do mhl out and play dead trigger and whatnot with a ps3 controller. Havent heard of the Ouya? well our phone is powerful as well, i see no need to buy a console when i have one in my hand.
Figuring out compatibility with games that I know the unit could run, i.e. Horn and Six Guns. Let me know if anyone is interested in this as well, I think we should work together as I see no real gaming support community out there. If anyone knows one please let me know.
Too small: When using touchkeys, your fingers covers half the screen and you cant see where youre going
Controller, sure, but unless you have one that can dock the phone, you face another problem - the screen is too far away and therefore too small.
Now a tablet on the other hand have plenty of space for your fingers and can easily be seen when using a controller
So, therefore: The One S is too small for serious gaming
Edit: Whats wrong with six guns? Seems to work just fine?
gameklip acttaches phone to controller. i can play fine with touch controls, maybe youre not a good gamer.
woa that was uncalled for. In that case - maybe youre an 8 year old girl with paperthin fingers?
maybe, im just saying that why should i have multiple devices? i already have a powerful device.
No one said that. You asked if you were to assume nobody played games on the one S, and I answered "its too small" as the reason as to why I dont play 'hardcore' on it.
And Im sure Im not alone.
well thats a great answer i guess. Now as far as people that would actually like to do so? any input there?
