Its a very nice review, I'm stoked about slingbox, this is one of the reasons i am anxious to upgrade from the blackjack - smoother experience.
- you teased you were going to show the Business card scanner app, but didn't demo it. I suppose i'll see it for myself in time but i was looking forward to that
Very very good review I cant wait till mine comes in the mail now lol. I was very happy to see you using the slingplayer as I have a slingbox that is just sitting unopened on my dresser atm waiting to be used. Question tho does the sling player come installed on the kaiser or will i need to use my code for a free one when i set up my slingbox?
other then that seeing sky work is great as i use it on my pc to call canada alot it will be nice to have be tied to it anymore.
overall this review would be a 10/10 great job and you got me stoked about getting mine lol.
no one has really tweaked the Kaiser. I was browsing a website (hackaday).com and they do some crazy out of this world things. How come no one has figured out a way to put an IRDA port on a Kaiser or something really useful. I have steady hands and I'm good at opening stuff. Would that be possible to incorporate the IRDA port of lets say an Ipaq phone and install it in the Kaiser? I think this phone would be bad ass if I could control everything in my house with my phone. Just wondering if it was possible or if any of you guys were members of that website. What do you guys think.
I mean for gods sake. They turned a freaking phone into a TAZER. How freaking cool is that.

You know you are right!
I have a couple of jet skis - but it would be cool if I could say - "hey - I am out at the lake and forgot my jet skis - can I use my Kaiser for that?"
Can anyone here help me put a motor on the Tilt with an impeller and I guess I will need a seat?
Oh - and now that it is a little larger - I will need someone to make a holder for me as well? (it will have to fit on my belt by the way.)

Ok I am aware of the thread opened for the IRDA port. I'm just saying no one has attempted to tweak a Kaiser.
One the website they turned an Xbox 360 into a Laptop, Wii as a Laptop, etc. The point I'm trying to make is that no one has attempted to play around with the inner workings.
*** Second Post, thanks for your sarcasm but it was pointless. Check out the website and you'll see what I'm talking about. There are people with amazing talent on that site.***

You are welcome - and everything does not have to have a point does it? If so the point was you can strap a bill on a goat but that does not make it a duck!
If you need the IRDA functionality - rather than take it apart - void any chance of a warranty - strap on a port wire it up - have additional issues - why not actually purchase a phone/unit with an IRDA port on it?
Re: there are people with amazing talent on that site -yup - over here our guys are toads - don't got a lick a sense between em.
Several french fries short of a happy meal - the lot of us.
Well - that sums up my entertainment for the morning!
Bill
Anyway..... any other input from other people.
Bill why would I buy another phone if I like this one. That's like people buying a Honda and customizing it to their liking. (adding rims, spoiler, turbo tint, blah blah blah etc) They could buy Mugen Honda which has all that stuff combined but they'd rather prefer the satisfaction of doing it themselves. Catch my flow? I like my phone and want to mess around with it more that's all I was saying. I don't see anyone laughing so obviously either you are not funny or nobody cares what you have to say.

I personally have always thought of this site as great (or simple) minds getting together to improve the functionality of the phone not to see if we can turn our phones into something that no longer resembles a phone.With all the wild cooking and software development the basic premise of will it make it a better phone has always held.
How would this even work there is no hardware for it. It doesnt make any sense you think someone is going to engineer a new board and electronics for you ? If anyone had that kind of talent they wouldent be waisting it for free.
OK check out hackaday. THey have mad talent and they post instructions on how to do it yourself. So yes they do it for free most of the time.
Hey guys. Photon here! I posted a photo of the project I had been working on awhile back called the Nexus 10 Arcade! For those of you who don't remember, the images are attached below. The auction can be found here.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/331014368034?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
I have decided to sell it on ebay to fund some other projects of mine. I am posting it on here because I know a lot of people really admired it when I posted it the first time. To see it in action, check out the links below.

It was definitely a fun project to work on, and I will probably do it again and again should it stay popular like this.
Hi there.
For those who don't know who I am, I'm from the galaxy tab 1 10.1 section. I mean the original galaxy tab 10.1, the tegra 2 one. I managed to get android 4.3 (cm10.2) and android 4.4 (omni 4.4) working on the device after cyanogenmod discontinued it. I really don't agree with their decision that "no neon" = sh*t device but that's another discussion for another off topic thread.
Despite the fact that I am a university student, I still like to watch cartoons. However, I have to say the new batch of cartoons coming from Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network are sh*t. I'm talking about titles like "bread winners", "sanjay and craig", "regular show", "world of gumball" etc which appear to feature mentally challenged characters committing acts of stupidity for stupidity's sake. Please don't bash my off topic thread if you like these shows. That debate is also another topic for another off topic thread. I have nothing against you or your taste, but for my entertainment tastes, these shows won't cut it for me.
I stumbled across a website that featured random recent cartoon suggestions. Of those, I saw 3 recent-ish anime suggestions. I thought they were pretty decent. Unfortunately, they also tend to recommend some of the titles I mentioned above. It's really a random selection that I don't think is based on any ratings chart. The first series I saw was Death Note. I really liked that one. It was very exciting with so many twists and turns that you just couldn't put it down that easily. In between I caught Infinite Stratos. While there was a bit too much "butts and breasts" for my taste I thought the story was decent enough. The fighting was nice and the characters for for the most part likeable. Lastly I saw Dusk Maiden of Amnesia. It thought it such a sweet story that left you with a nice warm and fuzzy feeling. I also thought the characters were fairly likeable.
If you guys know anything like those 3 I'd really like suggestions for what else I should watch in my spare time. Preferably dubs over subs but I don't mind a bit of quick reading if it's a good show. Feel free to critique each others's suggestions too. There's only so much I can get out of a quick wikipedia summary.
Thank you in advanced for your suggestions to keep me from getting bored.

Please continue you discussion in the linked thread above.
hello!
II's been a long journey , but I'm finally here! I've wanted to be here for quite a while, and I finally made the switch. I've got my first Android after owning a lot of phones, but all iPhones for the last 15 years. The first phone I owned was not an iPhone. It was a small phone that had snake and a space type game built in. I think it was a Nokia and it had an antennae on it. I had an awesome Samsung flip that played music unbelievably well. I had an HTC that came with a stylus. I had a sidekick and a rumour. Oh, but my first gadget was a palm pilot.
I'm here with a new zflip4. It's taking me some time getting used to it, but I'm learning. I love all the customization possible on an Android. I still don't know the difference between "themes" and "launchers" among other things, but I live that I can do so much more on an Android than an iPhone.
I posted question that I'm praying someone can answer. It involves an issue I'm having with settings-display- screensaver. I'm so confused!!
So, that's me, my phones, and why I'm here. I know I'm going to learn a lot here. Thank you for the chance to introduce myself and my zflip4 to all of you!
PS Help!!

Themes are different looks of the device, it changes the icons, color, more.
Launchers are customized versions of the stock launcher with more features added.
