I've seen this application just came for the iPhone and I thinks its a cool prank application and I wish if someone could port this for the Raphael? It's possible? Here's a video of what I'm talking about http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1nHE-Pi92w
haha thats cool
hope somebody can make it
Stop requesting copied apps from iPhone
don't you think if you want all these apps from iphone, then just get an iphone.....let the developers make apps that make iphone users want our phones...HTC Touch Pro rocks....iphone sucks
your saying that apps make the phone then
its just an app made for the iphone, that doesnt say anything about the phone. I agree with you that i dislike the iphone, i hate the hype, and i hate the marketing scams, but honastly, mac wins me over on their software everything feels more "smooth"
what I don't get is why people are requesting all this really stupid ****, seriously why would anyone pay money for any of it? It's total garbage
Totally agree
Easy people, I know that HTC kick ass, specially iPhone ass. But I just saw the application a I think it's cool, yeah totally stupid and useless but cool. And just wondering if someone can make something like this.
I saw this tread a few days ago and didnt expect these kind of reponses.. YES, its completly useless and YES, it came out on Ibone first, but does that alone make it crap? Personally, i think that its great that Ibone can get noobs excited about touchphone despite the fact that it is completly overpriced and made to much into a '' hype''. Finally i want to say this: Problably for most of us this is not our first touch phone (and problably not the last), i started with the Qtek s100 and what i partially loved about it was the fact that we could have almost unlimited apps and tweaks/mods so despite how useless of a app it may seem i still would like something useless as this as well, and NO i dont want a Ibone.

Very intelligent reply to a honest question. We should all definitely change our opinions of what we think a cool app is based on your very intellectually worded opinion. I'm sure you don't spend your money on something that others might consider stupid right? Is it not ok for someone else to spend their money on what they want and have a different opinion....or should everyone feel how you feel and be a mindless clone?
Just a bunch of Jr Members talking **** and not being productive whatsoever great job guys thats what this forum is for!!
We should count out everything that comes from the iphone right?
What a smart way to grow...
I want this app
I work for a cell phone retailer and would love to have this active when my customers ask to see my phone since our demo's are zipped tied to our display. I would love to see their reaction when they touch my screen and this happens. Im all for it.
iphone ports
its a fun prank to play on some one who owns a iphone, but.....
you have to figure out how to sneek the phone away from them
know how to install a program on the iphone
and finally be ready to record their reaction if there is one at all
but on the same note this app is useless. Fun as a prank to play on your buddies who cherish their phone. But just like me I never let my phone out of my sight. with that said I find it useless to request "ports" because why waste time porting an app when you could spend valuable time making a emulator that will run an iphone os, android for example.

Nice way to seem like an elitist douche bag. If you clicked the video for two seconds you would understand what he'd like to have done. You seemed to go out of your way to type up your ass-hole post, would it have been much harder to click the video and get the gist of what he wants? Sure he should have said a brief description. Ever occur maybe his english isn't that good so he figured a video of exactly what he wants would suit better? This is the internet, just because you're some piece of **** behind your computer doesn't make you cool for being a **** head to people.
And I see your name says lbcoder. Do anything worthwhile, anyways? Every one is calling this a stupid idea. I wouldn't say it's stupid, but it is worthless for the most part. But hey, some people might use it. Too many people on this site need to chill out.
ROFLMAO! Now that was funny. But he has a point, when did this place become so hostile? I mean I would get it if the OP was asking something that was just answered a page back and he didn't search... Fine have at it. But there was no need to be rude. Maybe it is people like you that are bring the over all morale down and making less people interested in the community. Who knows he might be the next cyanogen and you just showed him all senior members here are jerks or atleast that could be his impression.

I don't know I have to agree with him. The English seems to be good enough in the title. And the OP very well could have written a small blurb to at least allow people to get the gist without clicking the link, even if it was in broken English. Looks like youtube spam or flat out laziness to me. Really worthless idea, as well.

do you answer like that in real life, for example in work if your colleague has an idea you deem worthless?
hopefully not. nor people should be doing it here. its just.. i dont know.. being well mannered?
What specifically can you control with the phone? Only thing I would be interested in would be a full DVD remote. I hate navigating the menu trying to find certain features while the movie is going.
BTW, I browse these forums on my breaks at work where youtube is blocked.
I would be interested in using my phone as a keyboard and "mouse" that would be sweet.

Yes, if a co-worker comes up with a ridiculous idea, I tell him/her right out that it is a ridiculous idea. It's not rude, it's direct.
So, you are telling me that people should not express their opinions on here just in case it may hurt someone's feelings? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of having a discussion with opposing views?
In my opinion, it brings no value to this phone to have it act like a Playstation 3 controller. An app that could access files on the PS3 (ie gmote) would be interesting, however.
Well, this app has more purpose than controlling your ps3 (which I have, btw). But basically, this app is able to mimic other bluetooth devices; from keyboards, mice, even a ps3 controller. the use for such an app is actually amazing. having an app like this means i don't have to buy that $40 keyboard attachment for my controller. furthermore, i wouldn't even need to buy another controller.
anyways, check out the dev's website http://www.valeriovalerio.org/?page_id=174
seems like the app is listed under open source. maybe some of our app devs here might wanna give it a try? I would myself, but I just started learning java last week. https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=765
last edit: i just attached the source code. it's written in python, so someone will have to convert it to android java
id be real interested in an ps3 app that i can use as a dvd/br controller so i dont have to spend 25 on a remote, and using the hardware keyboard and the touchscreen as a ps3 keyboard/mouse... because as pointed out, im a broke mofo that shouldnt have a smartphone or a tmo data plan because i cant afford to pay for a snes emulator atm...
Here's the official word from the dev himself:
Short answer: BlueMaemo can't be ported to Android. Maemo and Android are not compatible in any way.
Basically you've to write everything from scratch you can't use any of the BlueMaemo bits, first you've to make sure that the Bluetooth stack in the Andoid platform is already fully open, last time I checked it wasn't, thus impossible to make something similar to BlueMaemo .
Best regards,
Valério Valério

So trew.
Lol.So true!
Hahaha i like them knowing what ads to show me but it's kinda creepy at the same time though
Good for you orb...sin google is your best friend
not trying to be a fan boy here...
just wanted to make that clear, and if you aren't reading any more because of what i put above, well your loss.
But this video kinda just proves that ever company has its down fall. people don't like apple because they lock alot of their products down. But then google have their downfall of track ALOT of what we do in our day to day browsing.
anyway just my view on the matter. I know it was only meant to be a funny video but just though i would share my view.
And yes i do have a htc desire
Very true, but I for one have no problem with google knowing what ads to show me it has honestly gotten me some good deals on things and since I don't do anything inherently wrong on the internet I don't have anything to hide, and if I do well I use some elses computer HA!

Facebook isn't much different. Does seem odd to me that Google seems to scream freedom & liberty to it's competitors about their data but wont let people freely use Google products as they so desire. Obviously having "fakesters" (heard that on the daily show) has it's downsides but what is the internet if not a place for people to live a fantasy life? =] Good luck deleting all the Mark Zuckerburgs on G+ google
,apple,microsoft,google ,and so on。if they want to check your detail,anytime
in fact, the above poster is right, a few months back did apple not say they were using the GPS coordinates in the iPhones to track location data? (which makes sense from a marketing stand point, they could see how many people actually used iPhones in different regions (i know some people who just bought one and never use it, just for the sake "oh, yeah, i own one" yeah, you bought a 700 dollar peice of technology and never touched it, smart.]
For now it looks preaty OK, will see what will be in a future...
I'm curious. Who are the "people at risk" mentioned in the "article" in the link? Personally, using my real name online doesn't mean anything negative to me. Surely anyone with anything to hide...
a) Wouldn't be on there.
b) Wouldn't be adding friends nilly willy.
If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
I dont see how it can affect me if i use my real name, anyway i dont see myself using G+ so much
hy,
im not sure if im doing something wrong but the google appstore is very incoherent, i dont even want to mention the other stores.
i was trying for example, to find resident evil 4 on the samsung store but found streetfighter 4 instead witch i cannot find on the google store nor anywhere.
streetfighter 4 was, by all sources on google first only exclusive for LG devices and then was expanded to some devices in japan, so i shouldnt even see it.
but alright thats the samsung store i dont expect much of that anyway .. but the google store is the same crap basically.
i go on my samsung s4 in the appstore app i press the menu button and select my apps and i got two tabs one says installed the other all.
on the installed tab i should see all apps installed on my device regardless if i got them from the samsung store or any other source i could have also downloaded an apk and installed it manually.
the i open my browser and go to the google app store .. what do i got there? i have on the left a link to my apps now i am supposed to get all my apps listed there ... and also one has that little gear icon witch is there for settings on it there is an option saying MY ORDERS that lists everything i ever purchased from the google appstore.
now the issue is that in the list of my apps on the browser i dont have the same items as on the list that the mobile app store gives me i am missing believe it or not even GOOGLE VOICE SEARCH witch appears on my mobile.
now the most retarded thing about this hole thing is that i got on my device in the all tap listed 2 samsung apps witch are the SAMSUNG HUB and PHOTO EDITOR when i go into details on both i get a message saying this app is not compatible with your device.
i cannot find neither of these apps on the google app store when i use the search embeded in the store app.
if this is really the android system then i take a crap on it. IS IT SO HARD TO MAKE THING COHERENT... I CANNOT IMAGINE ANYTHING SIMPLER IN THE HOLE PROCESS OF DEVELOPMENT OF AN ANDROID SYSTEM. i dont want to get thrown to by all this trash produced by a bunch of different standards different appstores but as you can see also within each store itselt.
I SO REGREAD BUYING THE S4 ILL NEVER CHANGE FROM APPLE AGAIN.
is it really so that in the process of developing a system like android google or samsung or whoever just says ok ... we developed all the core stuff we dont care about the UI just get the thing ready for sale
I've never had problems with it. Try re-installing it.
Edit: Judging by your lack of spelling and such, I'm assuming you're from a different country. That also affects what's available in the Play Store.

if you say that you have no issues, than maybe you havent checked all the stuff i mentioned above i allready took into account the fact that not all aps are available in all countries on the google appstore not sure if its the same on samsungs store.
i checked all spelling before posting really dont know where you found misspelled words
another thing is that i cannot find google magazines but i can find google books witch is just ridiculous... i want to throw out.
google is in everything they make incoherent and lackish.
i have no idea what is so hard about it but apple seems to be the only electronics company out there that can be trusted trully.
Unfortunately that's not how Google Play works. It's only going to show you what you installed via Google Play because those are they only ones it can determine you legally own. Same goes for the Amazon App store.
Google Play Web has always had issues displaying my apps. I think that's more of a limitation of the Web Developer and/or what they're using.
The issue you're having with the apps not being compatible with your device isn't Google Play's fault but the app developer's fault as they flag what the app is and isn't compatible with.
Funny how you mention Apple does it better but you have to remember there's only one maker of the iPhone so there's no worries about compatibility while there are many makers of Android Phones so compatibility's going to be an issue.

Why are you taking this as an attack? For your information, I don't even own a gaming console. Obviously you're not checking your spelling well enough. Anyway, All those app stores don't tie into each other because they don't share records. I really don't see what the point of this thread was to be honest.
If you're really that dissatisfied quit complaining and go to an iPhone and deal with the issues they have.

Android is about Open Source. Unlike macs proprietary world, android wants you to have the freedom of choice. Unfortunately this means everyone wants to be a choice. There's no reason to try out a million markets. You can usually find what you need in 1. If not, use a search engine, not other markets. Just easier that way.

The reason (again) why you might get better sound quality on apple products is because that's 1 company. Android has a ton of different people all trying to be better than the last guy. So they change the way streams sent or how hardware renders or they make a cheap product to make a quick buck. That's a free world, where people are allowed to be cheated, but also where they are allowed to go elsewhere.
Remember, if you own apple...

The best thing to do if you're having trouble is ask. No need to rant or attack companies that aren't reading this.
Just say "hey guys, having trouble finding this for my device which is s4 for this provider. Btw I'm in <country name>, thanks"
This'll help you find what you need.

It's not that they don't it's that they can't. They released Android as an open source project for anyone to use as they see fit. Besides if they attempted to dictate to companies how they had to build their phones and that they all had to be clones of all the others then no one would make them. It is because they're allowed to make their phones they way they want that Android based phones hold more market share than the iPhone.

the next time i draw pictures for you so everything is clear for you, youve got to read between the lines my friend to get to the real problem.
i believe thats why you bought an android in the first please because youre so surfacing all the time and dont get to the point.
what is that fraze supposed to mean i really wounder APPLE OWNS YOU, maybe they restrict me somehow? i dont know but i know that google restricts me with their crap inconsistent system and if they cant even make their own software nice than its not a problem with cross platforming.
if they compete with each other then they should make thinks better not worse I MEAN WHERE DID YOU PEOPLE LIVE... ON THE MOON?
AGAIN THE ONLY COMPANY OUT THERE THAT IS COMMERCIAL ... AVAILABLE TO ANYONE IS APPLE
if you think youre free because you can edit the system files on your phone then are you blind as a rat .. thats exactly why you are more constrained.
you have the choice to design stuff for example the UI. like anyone is capable to design thinks as they like, at the end they design crap for sure.
look on the other hand at ios 7 BEAUTIFUL i dont want to change a thing on that one ITS SECURE ITS BEAUTIFUL ITS MOST IMPORTANT ITS COHERENT.
APPLE RULES.
THEY PUT A QUALLCOM PROCESSOR IN THE S4 BUT AS THE DID WITH THE OTHER SOFTWARE THEY HAVE I BET THE CORE SOFTWARE ON THE ANDROID IS JUST AS FULL OF UNBELIEVABLE BULL**** MISTAKES AS EVERYWHERE ELSE AND I BET THESE EAT BATTERY LIFE AS WELL.
for example i wouldn't be surprised with this idiots considering their WORK so far, that android does not communicate with all wifi routes the same way it maybe BRAND DEPENDENT PFFFF.

for example i wouldn't be surprised with this idiots considering their WORK so far, that android does not communicate with all wifi routes the same way it maybe BRAND DEPENDENT PFFFF.
unbelievable idiots but again what a contrast to apple like apple is the only serious company out there

So you don't want help? Just to complain and promote apple?
Few things:
1. Yes, I am weird, I am OCD, I see things that as you said "no one cares about". I understand how little things can be important. Like how people will value your opinion based on the coherency of your delivery. If me no comprende, then me no nintendo.
2. My understanding of how important the little things are is what prompted me to purchase an android. You think you can't edit system files in apple products? Of course you can. It's not about being able to change the look of my phone. It's about being able to choose to do as I see fit, whether that's change the look, functionality or whatever else occurs to me.
3. By the phrase "apple owns you" what I mean to say is that in purchasing an apple product, you must purchase other apple products which will only be compatible with other apple products. In purchasing their equipment you've lost the freedom of choice. It's all apple. Headphones? Apple. Laptop? Apple. Mp3 player? Apple. Repair shop? Apple. Music player? Apple. Software? Apple.
Android can be used with whatever you prefer. Samsung, sony, htc, etc. The list goes on. This is why I prefer open source. It's about not being stuck in a loop and not being a walking advertisement for products that have been pushed on me rather then those I've selected because I like.
4. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That means that different people find different things beautiful. Look at some of the theme forums. Some are incredible, others are meh. To me. Not to the people that are downloading them and loving it.
This is why you think android is worse? Because it doesn't force itself on you? Have you tried windows? They're also commercial and available to everyone. You want something better, check out aosp. That's Android Open Source Project. There you will find much innovation and improvement. It's not android fighting against itself. It's companies trying to make android their own thing for their own reasons. Customer loyalty to what's familiar, a similar experience with their own brand name products.
You ask if we live on the moon for not getting away from that...
Have you even looked at this forum?
Most of what you will find here is about getting away from what all these companies are pushing on their customers. Why do you think people root? Replace roms? Kernels? All these things so we can get the experience that WE want from our devices. Not what the companies have deemed we should have.
You praise apple as the only serious company out there? Either you are gravely misinformed, blissfully ignorant or you're simply trolling.
Have you seen some of the battery performances on this forum? They're ridiculously awesome!
It's not android adding the bloatware, it's the devices manufacturers. Samsung adds Its app and launcher and whatever it wants to its devices, as does every other company out there. They made it, they can sell it how they want.
Apple's done an incredible job, it's come a long way, but it monopolizes itself. That is the only thing I don't like about apple, and is reason enough for me to never purchase their products.
I wouldn't allow such ideology in any other aspect of my life, why would I in this?
If apple makes you happy, great, grab yourself a variant of iphone and live the happy comfortable life of the conformist. Like a consumer slave, nothing to worry about when the masters choose for you

you got some good points there but.. apple ipad i the best apple earpods are the best apple laptops are the best so why would i want to choose something else.
i gurantee you that aple knows that the policy about their products is takeing them a bit portion of the market BUT they dont see any other way to guarantee you quality.
and the reason people change so much firmware is .. bad android on ios i wouldnt even want to change anything nor do i care to do things other than intended.
best way to save yourself from bad products is not to even get them and not buy them and then try to change them...

That's really the question here, I feel; why did you get something besides an apple product in the first place if you are so sold on the apple systems? Clearly there was something about apple you didn't like enough that you ended up getting an android phone instead. You can't argue that apple is the only good choice since after all - you yourself admitted it wasn't by choosing something else in this instance.

That's absolute correct. Feel free to only buy great products in the future, even though you for some strange reason decided to buy something you considered "not great" in this case, and then came to a forum dedicated to changing it to complain about your mistake.
We're very sorry you don't appreciate the phone you bought. The simple solution is to sell it to someone who does and get an iphone instead. iPhones are great products, no doubt, and apparently they are perfect for what you need!
Good luck!

This guy's either a complete moron or a troll and this thread should be locked either way. He obviously isn't here looking for help but to just bash on Android with an "I'm holier then thou" kind of attitude. If you love Apple so much how bout you just stfu and go find someone with an iPhone 5 that wants a S4 and trade with them if you can't exchange it where you bought it for one.
Posted on the GS4 forum too...and got flamed. Just a troll, IMHO!!

I like how the name ends in ".ad" almost as if he's flaunting his sheephood

Actually, I don't think the OP is a troll - he is a frustrated user venting in the wrong place to the wrong people. The OP is mad because he is used to the "it just works" feeling that Apple provides. I can relate to his feelings.
I carried an iPhone for awhile. A 4S. And although I prefer my Android by far, there are a few things that Apple simply does better than anyone. One of them is quality control. As an example, "drive mode" on my current i537. On my S2 I used this all the time. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. No rhyme or reason except buggy Samsung software. When I got my i537, I figured they *must* have fixed drive mode by now... I was wrong. Two years and two versions later it *still* only works only when it feels like it. Apple *usually* would never ship such shoddy software (yes, I know about the maps fiasco, but that is an exception, not the rule with them). There are many other stupid little Samsung bugs on our phone. It is frustrating to have a device that would be just about perfect if they spent a little more time on quality control. I mean, I found some of these bugs less than an hour after booting up my phone for the first time. Makes me wonder how much testing Samsung actually did with this phone before they started shipping...
That's what I thought at first, but instead of explaining his situation clearly (what he's looking for, what he's seeing) and actually asking for help he increases the animosity in his posts and adopts an "apple rulez you droolz!!!" attitude. That's when I decided he was a troll.
If he'd be clearer than "this sucks! Me no understand! I hate you bye!" Maybe he'd get a little more help. He's obviously never seen beyond what's in front of his nose and instead of trying to understand, he becomes angry. I can understand frustration, but there's no need to attack members, companies or anyone for that matter. If you don't understand something, you research, analyze, try a different angle and see what you learn. Not cry about it to whoever happens to stroll by.

exactly right friend but just think that if you can see already so many flaws on the surface just by booting up just think how many flaws there must be on the core programs, making youre device maybe vulnerable for attacks most of them noone probably notices because all google cares about is making things stable not necessarily right.
i just cant believe that even today only one company can be taken for serious and thats apple, i dont think that there has ever been a situation on any market in the world ever in history of mankind ... in economy that nobody cares to deliver a quality product besides one company but that everybody makes profit.
android is just a big prank that keeps itself on the surface by making false promises talking about functionality where there is basicly not so much functionality as they promise.
but what goes completely out of bounds and i cant understand at all is that this is absolutely no problem to fix.
software economy has obviously taken its own dynamic, going on a thin rope of false statements and cheap production i guess.
i have been in egypt this year for holiday and i would never go there again, but still i meet there people that came there for the 5th time i just couldn't believe my mind anymore ... unbelievable.
same counts for android some people just see the obvious and some just like crappy stuff maybe they like to suffer.. makes them feel better.
Like I said, I know how you feel. I'm a perfectionist myself and don't understand either why Samsung doesn't go just a bit further with their testing to work out some of the obvious bugs and flaws in their software. But what you or I might want is unfortunately irrelevant. Samsung hasn't asked for my opinion thus far, and I'd doubt they will anytime soon. So... We get to chose between Apple's relentless pursuit of perfection inside their strictly controlled "walled garden", or the "Wild West" of the Samsung/Android world. I'll take the later, bugs and all. If you chose to do the same, there are people here who will go far out of their way to help you with any issues that come up and only ask for coherency and politeness in return. Give it a try...
