PoliceStream - G1 Apps and Games

Great App For Listening To Local Police/Fire/EMS Radio, unforunately it doesnt have the option to input your own frequencies yet but i think i read on the description that its coming in the future. Runs in the background, pauses when you get a phone call then goes back on after. Great app.

Wish I knew if my local municipalities were included before buying. Dev's web site appears to be down

Although it does have a WIDE range of different citys and countys...i see in the comment blogs that there are some missing. Well, they are still updating weekly so pretty soon i hope to see an option where you can put your own in.

I am sure it is the same thing as StreamFurious and just searching for your local municipality's stream.

Not sure what you're LOL'ing about.
Free app that gets everything listed above plus music or paid app that gets one thing only. I suppose if you really like wasting money, it's a great app though?

What are we wasting? A whole $1.00? I don't know the streams of my local police. Paying a whole $1.00 for someone to do it for me, I don't mind.
Quit being a cheapskate and bringing down other developer's work.

yo if someone has a problem with paying a dollar its prolly cause they are tight with money, no need to call them a cheapskate.. cause there have been days ive had only 2 dollars in my bank account and to me thats a mcdonalds mcdouble and a small water... somedays one app price is my dinner...

I wasnt LOL'ing, i was lol'ing. Usually people lol because something is funny. How is it wasting money if we like the app? I upload my own music to my sdcard and dont use those programs therefore, i dont need it. Its a dollar bro, lol...i for one like supporting devs that put hard work into their apps. Im sure this program was no easy task and even if it was, they still did something they did'nt have to go out of their way for but instead they chose to. I think thats dollar worthy, no?

There is no problem with that, but dont hate on others because they do have a dollar and want to spend it on something they like. If you dont have a dollar and would rather go the free route then thats fine, but dont degrade others and try to make it seem foolish to spend *a dollar* on an app...thats just ridiculous.

then you dont need a cell phone with data on it if you are living that tight. if you cant spend a dollar on something, be smart.

I agree. If you have an Android based phone and plan, but there are days where you can't afford food, then you should probably re-examine your priorities.

Looking to buy a Tilt

Well, it's official. I trashed my Tilt. I dropped it in a bucket of fresh oil that i was using to soak a set of lifters for a motor I am building and didnt realize it for at least an hour or so. Now it looks like I have a 70's lava lamp in the screen. It does boot, but no response via the screen and it seems to be flickering the backlight. Before anyone asks, yes it was synthetic and no, I have no idea how I did it. Oh, and I found a cure for the sticky keyboard keys. Mine are smooth as silk but who knows if they work or not. It's hard to see past the lava bubble of oil trapped in the screen.
Does anyone have a Tilt for sale or know of someone who does?
Thanks guys and yes, if you can't laugh at yourself who can you laugh at?
Oh and the funny thing about it is that everyone that sees it says it would be awesome if you could buy one that had the lava in the phone like mine does now. However, I think they want it to work and really dont want me to install the lava for them.
If anyone has an extra Tilt they want to get rid off. Depending on the Price I might buy it from you. Also, I'm Thinking of adding this to the Kaiser FAQ Wiki.
Q: I Dropped my Kaiser in a bucket of Oil and now The Touchscreen doesn't work What should I do?
A: Buy a new one. Or you can try and have the Screen replaced.
I've got one, but I want an iPhone... :gasp:

Eh?
This message is too short!
One hell of a way to make your keyboard nice and smooth. Take a look on ebay of CL.
I have two tilts one is listed on ebay right now.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=120252716998&Category=38331
The other I have not listed. Check it out.
I just got a tilt from AT&T for very cheap. Go to wireless.att.com and buy a refurbished one. They are FREE with 2 year agreement!! Here's the catch... you need to only keep the phone on AT&T for 30 days then pay a $175 Early Termination Fee and the phone is yours for the $175 + $40 or so for the first months service!!!! I just got mine this way and it's perfect... it was as good as brand new looked like it was never touched before!
I appreciate the offers, but ebay is not the solution. I don't care if the phone is locked or unlocked. I am more than compitent enough to unlock the phone myself. Also, just because the phone is unlocked does not make it worth more or less than the locked phone in my book. $500+ for a tilt is just not an option. The money is not the issue, the value of the phone is. XDA store has the phones for $224.99 for those with an already existing account. Why would I pay more than that?
However, thanks for the offers guys. The offers are very much appreciated.
Man, don't you read the manual on your new toys????
You DO NOT need to lubricate the Tilt Hinges people!!!!
I'll see if I can find anyone here wanting to get rid of it. Actually I may even, need to see when the T3 will be out though.

I deserve that. Still, i think i have found the cure for the "sticky" keys.
Side note, seems as though everything seems to be working again. It did trash a battery as it wont pewr with it installed. However, the "lava" bubble is gone, the sound is no longer garbled, the touch seems to be working and as far as i can tell everything is back to functioning. The only issue I am seeing now is that there is some SLIGHT discoloration to the background of the screen. Who knows, it may work fine after all. I am still in the market though for a new or refurb, either way.
i just happen to be selling one..

i will make deals on the price if your interested in my phone.

Drizzy comes back and scams once again.

Since he "came" back he has been tweeting that he has been making nexus ports and liquid ports for the g1. The day the Nexus Once came out he said he had a bunch and was selling it for a discounted price (like around $430 unlocked).
Turns out he was lying about the the ports (they never existed) and he scammed the people who bought the nexus one off of him. After he got the money he was never on twitter for about a week or two. After seeing all the stuff about him scamming people he decided to return the money. He said he was going to but his paypal account was frozen. Then he deleted his twitter account.
Well at the end what goes around comes around (that is the saying right?) He is going back to jail.
Just felt like sharing that. I was hoping Drizzy will redeem himself but he is just a lying, cheating stupid @$$ douche bag. NEVER, EVER SUPPORT HIM UNTIL HE ACTUALLY DECIDES TO TURN HIS LIFE AROUND.
If any of this isn't true please post a reply. I heard this from various tweets from Android Devs and it is a topic ( http://twitter.com/#search?q=#drizzyscandal )
Drizzy's lame excuse

Bad Day
I feel naked as a jay bird without my phone. Kinda like the cigarette commercial I would have to re- learn how to do things without my phone
If I loose my phone I'll go suicide and haunt the place afterwards and everyone with a smartphone that passes by that place they will be dead when they're batteries get empty
I must be one of the people that really wouldn't mind. Yes, I do use my phone for a lot of things, but I will live without it. For music, I'd just have to get another device, or a Walkman (hey kids, remember the walkman? not the SE Phone line ;-) ), GPS, there are regular maps, and other stuff like that.
No Gingerbread for Desire!
Rather than starting a new thread...
http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/commun...ead-for-desire-due-to-memory-issues-10022721/
"We're sorry to announce that we've been forced to accept there isn't enough memory to allow us both to bring Gingerbread and keep the HTC Sense experience on the HTC Desire," the team wrote. "We're sincerely sorry for the disappointment that this news may bring to some of you."
So it's ok for users to live with an outdated OS that has Kernel vulnerabilities, leaving them prone to attack vectors that have since been fixed...just as long as HTC can keep foisting software crippling bloatware down peoples throats.
Well done HTC! *Slow hand clap.

I figured as much. I'm kind of hoping they will just repair the screen and send my phone back to me as it was. But it does in the T&C's that they will update software to most recent version before sending the handset back. And I Can't be arsed to go through the hassle of rooting again.

On a plus note one of my mates has just offered to lend me his galaxy tab whilst I'm without a phone

In fact, if it will not happen to me.
just buy another one, or lend from my brother, friend...

Google Fiber (TV service)

http://www.theverge.com/2012/7/26/3188845/google-fiber-tv
Looks like Google is getting into the television service providing game. $120/mo is waaay too high for TV IMO. Thoughts?
The free Nexus 7 is nice (but not $120 a month nice since it's $250 for the 16gb), being able to stream from Android devices is nice, but with a service like tv the only way they can oust the monopolies is to beat them on price point. I can't justify spending $120 a month on just tv when I get internet and tv for less than $100 from my local monopoly.
Take out the commercials without the use of the dvr then I might justify paying that much. Also if you are going to play reruns dont just rerun 12 different episodes
LOL Cool idea but too expensive.

I've never understood the idea of commercials on anything other than the free over the air channels. I already pay for the tv service, why am I being advertised to like I didn't?!
Google fiber is also a broadband networking service in Kansas city
Read theorion.uk.mn
That's cool but definitely not worth 120 a month.

You're paying to be able to receive the channels, you're not paying for the channel itself (that's why starz, hbo, and cinemax are extra, they don't have commercials).
Depends though.. What exact features are coming with the package? I mean it is a bit pricey, but if it offers something another service won't besides a free Nexus 7 "Win!" Than it would be worth looking into.
From my understanding it would be wise to drop DirectTV and Dish at this point because I've heard they dropped plenty of channels an average consumer watches, AMC/Comedy Central etc.
I'd be using Verizon right now if my apartment supported them :/
Have to rely on crappy charter unfortunately.
Got to admit though.. the internet sounds mind blowing, imagine playing your console online lol.. everyone would be pissed

Yeah boooo DirecTV, I would have dropped them the second they took my Comedy Central.
Did you guys happen to see the download speed? At 5gbs for download and 1gbs for upload. Yeah I'm pretty sure the packages are worth it. Oh yeah and the 1024gbs of Google drive free as well?

That explains it better than Verge did.
I guess $120 could be plausible, just depends.

It is free internet, can't really complain? Household average, seems about correct. Charter gives me about 10-20mbps "Not really" they are ripping me off completely even after I've complained and argued.
I was suppose to be getting 30mbps, charter is not trust worthy at all.
But.. you get the Google package, wade out the two years :/ you have a nexus 7, free internet and now you can drop them for the low package (which I didn't see them mention in the article) for ever how much it is. Then get the bad ass internet.
I'm sure its more complicated than that but from a gist that's what I gathered someone would probably do.

Nobody can troll Google like Google can.
Google and Valve are the only tech companies that really "get" humor.

Sounds like you don't have a docsis 3 modem, I recommend the Motorola Surfboard Gigabit Docsis 3. I'm on the same as you and I always get 30+. Charters equipment sucks, and you have to lease it for a monthly fee. Just buy your own. Wifi speedtest attached.

I love the Portal "Turret" video! Valve does have a great sense of humor.
Edit: 888 thanks, cool. Nobody press my "thanks" button anymore!
Edit2: Prototype7 you $&@! I still have a screenshot haha.
Oh I have a Motorola but clearly isn't up to standards lol

Is it a Docsis 3? That's going to be the biggest factor.
