I tested this app out last night and came to the conclusion that although its not ready for me to recommend yet, its very promising. It’s still kind of buggy and its prone to crashing, but in a couple of months it might be perfect.
There aren’t very many free .gif creators that are dead simple and convenient for the user. So this app is on the right track.
I put a custom animation on the boot screen when I first start up my cell phone. If your phone is rooted and you have the root explorer app, all you need to do is find an animation/video you want and do the following:
After finding your desired boot animation
1.Open Root Explorer
2.Find your bootanimation.zip
3.Long press that file and click rename and rename it to “TMUS_bootanimation.zip” (Without quotes)
4.Long press angain and click COPY
5.Navigate to /system/customize/resource Click mount R/W in the top right corner
6.find the file that’s called “TMUS_bootanimation.zip” and rename it to “TMUS_bootanimation.zip.back” That way you have a back up of the original.
7.Now press paste and you’re all done.
REBOOT to see the animation.
Android Ice Cream Sandwich Review
The improved speech to text is crazy fluid. I don’t know if this applies to anyone else, but when I use speech-to-text features on phones I feel like I have to talk extra white in order for the phone to understand me.
I go from my normal speaking voice to the stereptypical nasal-y white man tone.
“Hey Bob, coulda ya run down to the garage and pick up my lawn ornaments? Thank ya Buddy! haw haw”
Leaked video of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sammich)
HTC bought the Beats earphone company for $300 million earlier this year. So some of their phones are gonna start having beats audio installed, and they’re also come with a pair of Beats By Dre earbuds. I kinda want to cop this Sensation XE / Omega when it drops but the phone is lacking when it comes to RAM. I’ll have to compare the specs to other shit when I’m ready for a new device. I’ve heard the HTC Sense UI is a resource hog so I don’t know if I’m gonna fuck with it. This phone drops Nov. 2nd for T-Mobile
Alarm Clock Xtreme: For when you REALLY wanna wake the fuck up
I’m one of those dudes who will sit there and press snooze 6 times in a row and lay in bed an extra hour because he’s too lazy to get up and start the day. That’s mostly because my alarm clock is a little bitch and I own it.
But alarm clock xtreme is pretty official for when you really wanna get the fuck up. I downloaded this for free on Amazon’s app of the day.
You can have it where your alarm won’t turn off unless you answer math problems. I have mine set on “Easy” math…
I may prance around Tumblr like I’m halfway intelligent and I’m enlightened on some shit but let me tell you…….. when it comes to math I’m dumb as shit. When I see numbers I get all humble and put my head down like a slave.
“Wut iz deez symbullz boss?”
During school I used math class as a time to sit in the back of the class eating Cheetos and talking about what happened the previous evening on Monday Night Raw.
I’m rambling…. but anyways. If any of you guys are one of those heavy head, bowling ball skull negroes who have a hard time waking up in the morning. Check this out.
Use Animated .Gifs as your Android Wallpaper
I just discovered this app, and I’m taking full advantage now. The app lets you decide if you want to stretch/enlarge the image so it fits to your screen vertically, but I chose to display the small image vertically and the large one horizontally.
It’s your choice though.
Since some Android phones have problems with battery life, it also lets you decide if you want a crystal clear .gif or something with diminished image quality. Here’s how mine looks at both angles.
When you take screenshots of a moving image it comes out fuzzy, but it looks better in real-time on the phone
