The thoughts people get into their heads when they get Android phones. - Off-topic

I really hate when someone new to Android walk over to me (my school is full of retards [no pun intended]) and ask me to get them free apps. They ask me if they have to jailbreak their phones and if they have to install something. As the conversation grows I realize how dumb they are and they only make me angrier everytime they ask an even dumber question. Has this happened to you or does it happen to you a lot?

I guess I have rooted like 20 droids till date for my friends ...so yeah but once thy get how to do it and read on xda they are on there own ....

I have successfully setup ONE friend with a rooted phone, although I flaunt my skills A lot. It boggles kids minds since I'm in football, powerlifting and build my own roms haha

Damn... I miss the MyTouch 4G, the last rom I had on that phone was Sense 3.0 and that was when it first came out and was buggy as hell. Miss that phone :/

Most of my friends that I end up talking to about Android stuff have already rooted themselves and done a bit of modification including possibly flashing Roms.

And this my friend is how you can make thousands of dollars a month =)

I agree. In 5th grade I got like 50 bucks for jailbreaking kids itouch. Those were good days... Although at my school, I feel like I'm one of the only kids that choose an android phone over the iphone. Everyone else with android just got it because iphone was to expensive for them. Makes me sad how society is right now...

Personally, I don't think it matters. If people want and iphone, they'll get one. It can only bring people in, and if its a flop, then they'll drop it.
Who cares? This is an Android forum.
***WARNING***
1. Do not compare the iPhone4 to any Android device in a positive light (even if you prefer Android).
2. Do not say anything positive about the iPhone4 at all.
If you break those rules, you want to be called an Apple fanboy or an Android hater.
Oh my god...its about sprint...im not going to argue with you anymore. I have already talked to mods and admins via pm about this issue of people that always comment like you do. Sorry pm

See me along with many others can recognize the good and the bad and explain why the android device is better...there are two sides. No need to be 100 percent ignorant about one

Darn, there goes that sweet 30kbps "3G" download speed I have been enjoying lately.
My wife switched over to AT&T-mobile the other day and bought an iPhone. The OS runs very smoothly and sort of just 'works' like other Apple products. It's also a lot less clunky than the Evo.
Definitely a good phone for the masses.
I doubt many people accustomed to android would enjoy it though. I hate having to click on the settings icon and then search through all the sections of different settings options just to adjust my brightness.
With MIUI I just pull down my notifications bar and change all of that in an instant.
Also, widgets.
The operating systems are both absolutely fantastic after trying both of them in my opinion. It comes down to personal preference completely.
People don't give the iPhone enough credit... It's made so you know how to use it out of the box, which is what most people who have cell phones want.
We all, at xda, know about rooting and modifying our phones to make them do things they weren't originally intended to do... But you all have to realize... The majority of people with cell phones don't know how to do all of this modifying, and they probably don't care to...
Would I get an iPhone... Probably, if it had/gets a bigger screen. Am I dying to rush out and buy one... No. I like Android.
Agreed, I never thought about getting an eyephone because I don't like Fruitco. , but if I did it would need a much bigger screen, and 4g

Apple's most successful(and irritating) product: meet the iSmug

Hi all,
i have been using this forum for some months after I got my amazing android phone. I am happy there is finally competition for good phones that are not iphones. I do not like apple's way of doing business and definitely the smugness of most people who get an iphone and think their coolness has gone off charts.
You know what I mean? People who have a need to show off their iproducts in public? I am so happy i have an android. Android people are so much fun to talk to and cool to discuss wasy to improve their phone.
Apple's best product has been the ismug What do you think? do you know what i am talking about?
Message to the moderator: i hope this is the right forum(if not please move it)
that is so true! i personally appreciate the quality of apple products, however i believe that apple products are incredibly overpriced, and their biggest advantage is their biggest downfall: Apples iron grip on their software
Lemme tell you a short story.
I am on a trip to Athens the other day and,as everyone in a large city,I used the subway to go to my destination.Entering the train,I found a seat next to a guy who looked like being 20-25 years old.He didn't seem geeky at all in fact.I sat next to him,but then he did something he shouldn't have.He pulled an iPhone 4 out of his pocket!Oh sh!t.There was also a girl sitting right in front of us,in a seat looking towards us.She told him "Nice phone you have there"(She had an old Sony Ericsson btw).He found a chance to show off then.And then,after I had lost my temper,I pulled my Galaxy S 2 out of my pocket and started playing with it.He looks at it,his eyes go wider than usual and awe was obvious in his expression.The girl(a beauty in fact) turns to my side and says "Your phone is nicer than the iPhone".Then I started to show off.The games,the screen,the effects,everything was better.That iSmug next to me turned white and got off at the next stop.The girl and I had a...nice time after that btw.
And what's the moral of the story?Android ftw!
Tolis that is an amazing story.
i think the only way to strike back at the apple cult is to make fun of their smugness
ps hi from thessaloniki
ps 2 Galaxy S ii is great
Most of the people think iProducts are COOL. It has now become a factor of an individual's "coolness".
Then someone pulls out their android phone and they're like, "Is that samsung?", "Bleh".
I am bored of listening: you have a Samsung? It looks like an iclone...;

This douchebag in my boy scout troop once compared his 80 gigabyte iPod to my 2 gigabyte Samsung YP-T9. Another person pulled out his 8 gig Nano and harassed me about mine being inferior. Got into a fight and quit scouting for good. Mine had an FM radio and Bluetooth.

Girl trouble?

Idk if this is the right place to go, but I'm at a pretty bad place. My gf of 2.5 years just broke up with me about a week and a half ago. She keeps telling me to move on and stuff, but we had a history of coming back to each other. This time she says its real. Now, I tried took her advice and tried moving on. I went to this small party last night and her one, pretty babish friend was there. We talked a lot and later told me that she wouldn't hurt my ex like that but told me I'm a pretty good guy. I think I like the new one, but I'm worried that what if my ex comes back? I don't want to hurt this chick cause I kinda care about her. My friends who are pretty close to her told me I should wait a month then go after her. I just need some help, you guys seem pretty smart.

18. I'm a senior in high school. Y a I know its hs BS to most. But they said to take like a month off then try with the new girl. And to not talk to my ex or hangout with her unlees she texts me first. My ex is 18 too and is off at college 5 hours away.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Your ex sounds pretty determined that it's off for good. You shouldn't put your life on hold hoping she might change her mind but you shouldn't rush headlong into something else either. The new babe has potential? Tell her you like her and that you hope that something happens in future, but that you don't want to make a rebound mistake.
Go out with some friends and keep yourself busy with stuff you enjoy. Try to put your ex out of your mind and take advantage of the free time you have now. Don't be tempted to make a fool of yourself with your ex when you're feeling low. Months from now when you're looking back on this time, you will want to be able to hold your head up and say that you kept your dignity through the hard times.
If its meant to be, you'll get back together sometime. The question is when. When I was in high school I dated someone for a year. I broke up with her and some how 3 years later we found each other. That was 2001. We are now married and have 3 kids.
But to be honest, since you said she's in college 5 hours away, it sounds as if she found someone else or doesn't want to be that committed to any guy. Between the college atmosphere and 100' s of new people and new friends, they are more, I've seen so many relationships end when one of them goes onto college or both go to different colleges. You want someone who is there everyday.
Either way I would pursue the new girl. You don't need to sit around and continue to be sad.

Thank you. That's what I was thinking about doing. What worries me though is what happens if we reconnect over her Xmas break? I don't want to ruin this new girl, she had guy problems in the past. Also I have the problem of these two girls being friends. Good idea or bad idea? My friends said wait and then see. I have to prove it to the new girl that I'm worth it and that she isn't just some rebound, which she isn't.

If the new girl isn't worried about what it could do to her relationship with your ex, why should you. You need to do what will make you happy. If your ex wants to get back with you later in, but you have found someone that makes you happier, that is her loss. She made the decision to leave you. If you're waiting to see if its meant to be, you could be waiting years, months, or even a lifetime. Move on and let life take its course. The lowest points in your life will only make you.stronger.

Who cares if you're like that? Chicks don't like the super macho douche man. If you're looking for the kind of girl that does then stop looking for relationships and start looking for an easy score. Living up to the standards of sleeping with as many people as you can is actually kinda gross to me personally. Just do what you want, not what you feel as if everyone else will approve of.

A good reason? Okay. An evil villain has taken over the world and is destroying everything and killing everyone. An old tattooist does tattoos that give the person super powers. You get the tattoo and save humanity. Plus the tattoo is sick and you get tons of b***hes.

Military pride is a legit reason. To this day, if I see an older man with a wrinkly Military based tattoo, he gets much respect.

That's behind every tat on me. It's gotta mean something and you've got to believe it will always mean something,
Good and bad are not quantifiable things. You can't measure goodness. There is no such thing as a "good" reason. There are only reasons. So anybody who has a reason has a "good" reason. It's not done for you to agree with it.
I don't see a good reason. When I see people with tattoos, I don't think of them in a good way. It just looks stupid. That's just me though.

My humble opinion...
There's no real answer. My first tattoo was a giant 8-bit pixelated Mega Man on my leg. I got it because when I was a kid, my pops lost his business in Boston and we were stuck moving down to Florida where my grandparents lived. We moved into their 2-bedroom "manufactured" home in the middle of a retirement community. My folks saw that my brother and I had no kids in the neighborhood to play with, so they got us an NES and a copy of Mega Man 2 for Christmas that year. I played that game for months on end, well past the point where my parents were obviously annoyed with the music in the game. For that first few months until my family got back on its collective feet, Mega Man was my best friend. Fast forward almost 20 years later, I decided I wanted to get a tattoo, and the Blue Bomber was my choice. I was actually a little afraid that when I went back to visit my mom, she was going to freak out about me getting inked. But instead, she immediately recognized it and even thought it was a great tattoo to get.
The moral of this story? The only reason that matters is the one you rationalize yourself. To most people, a Mega Man tattoo is a silly and nerdy thing to do. To me, it's a silly and nerdy thing to do that reminds me of how much my parents cared about my happiness as a child, no matter what. I'm happy with it, and I couldn't care less if the rest of the world doesn't see or know the reason for it. Every tattoo I have means something to me, and I'm the only one who needs to know it.
I personally cannot think of a reason I'd get one. Other than the military pride that was mentioned because of the whole brotherhood the army gives you. I just don't see myself getting one, but I've heard quite a good amount of reasons for others.

I think there is no good reason simply because it's hard to remove a tattoo if you don't like this tattoo any more.

well that's my reason.. i'm planning to get an awesome tat on my nape as soon as i turn 18 or something, but that tat has to have a significant meaning to my life of course

I think there is no good reason simply because it's hard to remove a tattoo if you don't like this tattoo any more.

Twenty years on and i hate my tattoos now. Given the choice i would still have tattoos in the same places, but they would be different tattoos. Therein lies the problem though. Your tastes change from year to year as you yourself change, but tattoos are permanent.
I agree with Card83 and a few others that have said, it's should mean something to you, not just something that is cool at the time like a barb wire arm band because you will come to hate it.

Well ive always said i would only have my kids names on me.
And when my son was born I had his name tattooed onto my chest. And if i have any more kids then i will be putting there names on my chest aswell.
But apart from that i will not be having any other tattoo on me as anything else wont mean anything to me apart from "looking nice"
A friend of mine got the name of his best friend tattooed inside his wrist when said best friend took his own life two years ago. As a way to remember, and a reminder. They were very close.
And there are always more practical reasons for tattoos. You just don't always consider them. There are a lot of soldiers who get their data tattooed on various bodyparts, just in case. IED's really don't care if you want to keep you bodyparts attached, and thus the tattoos makes IDing easier.
Personally I don't have any. I'm not on good terms with needles.

[OFF-TOPIC] Xperia T(L)(X) Users Hangout Lounge

Hey,
I created this thread because I enjoyed a very similar thread back in the day I owned my Desire S (still visit it quite often, the thread has +1300 replies (!) ). It serves to reduce the ammount of off-topicness between the (development / other) threads, also to have a laugh and ask some questions regarding various subjects. Young or old, noob or developer; everyone's welcome.
Feel free to talk and troll about anything, aslong as it's within the Forum Rules
Let's go.
I'll start.
So who else among here haven't had any Apple products in your family. I do.
My Miss has a One x, daughter has Xperia P, and the youngest has Asus TF300 tab. We're an android fan family. No Mac for us as well, 2 desktop Windows PC in the house.
And yes I guess I'm old for xda, I'm already on my thirties and I think some of you here are as young as my kids.

No Apple products here too!
My family are apple and blackberry unfortunately, the only reason my mum has android is I donated her my old zte blade
Only 19 years of age here, I'm probably on the younger side of most people around here
Well I got a Mrs who can't tell me why she wanted a iPhone.
Me - so what features do you want?
Mrs - an iPhone so I can have apps and stuff like that, and a web browser.
Me - ummm what about a decent andriod phone.
Mrs - why do I want a robot I want a phone.
That's what I'm up against.
My sons both have my HTC's that I have owned.

My ex gf wanted an iPhone when I first met her, then she saw that my Xperia X10 (when it was new haha) and realised that iOS sucks worse than 1.6 donut, she then got a Desire HD and was rocking ICS (PA, CM9 etc...) All her typical 'iPhone is the best' friends were amazed of how it looked and all the features, she now has SGSIII. It amazed me of how an OTT price tag gives people the impression that iPhone is by far the best.

My wife wanted an iPhone :banghead: but I persuaded her to get an Android, now my daughter had an Android for her phone, plus two Android tablets, mine and my wife's and two windows laptops. Thank god there's no maggot ridden apples in my house lol

Good to see you again as well
The one X is also a truely a brilliant device, some of my friends have it and I hear no-one complaining except for having to flash a boot.img every time they flash a rom. I just bought the XT so I'll probably be around here for 1,5 years or more .

Not sure why I said X. I meant HTC One! I had an X, but my son drowned it in my cat's water bowl! I got this Xperia T as a stop-gap. Actually very impressed with it. Had it since January and only bothered rooting it on Monday. Best stock ROM I've encountered.
Highly recommend using the Xperia Launcher mod if you are not already using it.

I killed my poor old One X a while ago and have been looking for something to replace it lately. I have the opportunity to purchase a TL for what I feel is a very fair price but I am a little hesitant. I really really liked my One X and do not want to be disappointed if I purchase the TL and regret it in a week or two.
Would you add $100 out of pocket and pick up another One X or maybe even a Nexus 4 instead of the TL?
Thanks!

arent lool im only 14
Yep there arent few young members. Back when i was developing for xperia 2011 there were like three 14 aged developers. I am 15 , but... still i think there are kids who like wasting time here.
And to start a new thing here, try answering that question: What is your favourite activity. Pass aroud some stories about it. I think its better if we dont discuss tech in off-topic...
So I personally like biking. I bike to school and from it. The past Sunday i was on a championsip (countrycross) and i finished 12th :victory:. And yesterday i flat my back tire in the middle of the road to school and i pushed my bike to school and missed 3 lessons and i think i shall flat more often tires cause ,teachers cant tell me anything, i have the "proof":laugh:
I got to be honest now as well, im 16 (in 2 weeks 17) and I generally like snowboarding (we have an indoor hall near), drinking beer with the mates in the pub, and apparently android development. I also like to go for a run once in a while
@MrTapa i usually travel by bus to school (25km) and fell asleep on an early morning. Drove all the way to Middelburg which is 40 kms further than school also missed 3 classes.
Next school year ill go stuying though, and ill have a bachelors pad (correct?) near school. Bicycle hello!

I like skiing but my father had broken his foot twice from skiing and he is very worried so i usualy dont ski mainly not to panic him
Sony Xperia ZR is rumored to be in the works! Quad core, 4,6' 720p display, water and dust-proofness again!
But... 8GB internal again... if it was 16GB then maybe this phone would be something interesting... but such a small amount of memory would run out in a moment.
Back to the topic - I love karate! I'm a student at Bydgoszcz Kyokushinkai Tezuka Group for about 8 years now and I tell you - if you want to get fit and be prepared for every uncomfortable and dangerous occasion, or just want to try something cool, try martial arts!

Thanks for the advice. Turns out it was only an extra $30 I needed to add for the very good deal I got on a 16G Nexus 4.
