Honeycomb?

My dad was flaunting his evo around once again and it was about honeycomb this time and I was wondering what is tthe chance of the hero getting it?

From what i hear honeycomb is only for tablets.
But you can download pieces of honeycomb; like I got the honeycomb music player from this site under the galaxy tab section. Also I wouldn't be surprised if sometime down the road there's gonna be roms with honeycomb. I'm still waiting for gingerbread on my phone lol

But the evo isn't a tab, just a slightly bigger phone and it looked like full blown honeycomb, wasn't 100% but looked legit

Trade ipad for galaxy tab?

I just had someone contact me on craigslist saying the would trade me their Samsung Galaxy tab for my jailbroken 16g wifi ipad. Would you do it? I already have the nook color (cm7) and an Evo 4g. I don't really use my ipad but my NC is basically the same thing as a halcyon tab... right?

I wouldn't. The GTab is too much like the NC. Hold on to the iPad until someone offers to trade you for a honeycomb tablet. Yeah, he'll probably ask for your iPad + a little cash, but it'll probably be worth it.

I wouldn't do it either. The NC seems to be almost exactly the same as the Galaxy Tab. If you decided you did want to trade still, you should request some cash with that trade. Galaxy Tab is like 350, so I'd want at least $50 to make it equal.

They arent exactly equal
My Galaxy tab makes and receives phonecalls. Plus the built in GPS makes carrying 1 device better then carrying my nook and a phone.
Just my opinion of course.

Yeah that's what I figured. If I didn't have the NC I'd do that trade in a heartbeat. Just wasn't sure with the rumors of hc coming to the g tab if it would be worth it. But then again when the source for hc comes out the NC will have it fully functioning.

I can't imagine using something as big as the GTab as my phone... even with a bluetooth headset.

If you use it with a headset, incoming calls are no problem. (and yes, it is hilarious to phone with.... tried it!)
I would trade the iPad, but then again, I'm not exactly fond of Apple products in general.

ITunes makes me mental! I jailbroke it and its still not very customizable. Yeah it has the Cydia and winterboard apps but they're just themes and apps.... I think! I don't really pick up my ipad except for Netflix and now my Evo has it and hope the NC gets it soon. When Netflix comes to the NC my ipad will just gather dust (except the speaker sucks on the NC even with a custom kernel)

Erm...you're aware many of us are happily using NetFlix on our NCs since yesterday, right?
Rodney

got both nook and Gtab -
and yes they are very similar, and in fact NC overclocked is snappier than my GTab
BUT...
i make video calls with my Gtab to friends with iphone 4
and having a camera grew on me
and convenience of location based apps
but to the original poster - opt for trade with honeycomb

I got the Netflix app for my Evo last night and it works flawlessly but not on my NC. Is there an apk I'm not aware of?
Sent from my NookColor using XDA Premium App

you need to edit the build.prop file on the NC

Thanks! I don't really know ANYTHING about adb so I may have problems with this. I'll look around the forums or youtube about adb stuff and figure it out. What are the chances that the NC will get the official app? That I know how to do.

Found a YouTube video on androidcentral.com that made it simple. Took 5 minutes.

What are you doing with your old cappy?

Greetings all.
I recently got a new sgs3, so my cappy was just sitting there.
So, even though I was still updating it, I was not really using it.
So I basically have made it a multimedia device.
I have it set on airplane mode with Wi-Fi on. Its got my music and a few games on it. I also loaded audible.com app on it and I sync all my books to it. Since audible now syncs where you are in books, this is a fantastic feature.
What do you use you're old cappy for?

I use my Captivate for music.

Still using mine!
Going strong now with a brand new 1800mAh battery and running AOKP

I flash new nightlies and use it around home / the office / the gym on WiFi when I want to conserve my Nexus 4's battery or don't want it to get broken.

Mine's getting flashed to stock and traded with my wife's whose power button stopped working. I'll use her old phone for testing apps on Gingerbread and as a backup in case something happens to the Nexus 4 or her phone.
It's been nice. Would've been 5 times nicer if GPS was adequate.

Gave it to the GF
Gave it to my girlfriend, totally converted her from iphone to android. Of course this is after itunes, or the icloud, ot something totally ate her 100 gig music collection. Now all her music is on my server and she can get to it from wherever on the cappy. She doesn't have to even pay an annual fee.
She just has to make me a sammich.

Hahaha... me too

I recently got someone elses 'old' Cappy, my second, and the plan was to use it for testing ROMs, but it has been a battle thanks to it already getting ATTs GB "upgrade"! lol

Running Paranoid Android/AOKP on it. Some people can't afford to upgrade phones on a whim ya know

Mounting mine inside to view outside IP cam, control media, etc

Just picked up an s3 for the wife and a nexus 4 for myself to replace our Cappy's.
Is there ea ROM specifically designed to not be a phone? If not what ROM are you running old Cappy for non phone functions.
I've also considered use as a dashcam, but i think it might invite break-ins lol.

Simply keep the phone in airplane mode, the less widget possible and have it on conservative = best battery life for non-phone functions.
For games although, you might not wanna have it on conservative. On demand is a great middle.

use it for daily life :fingers-crossed:

Gave it to my girlfriend to try to convert her from crapple..... if 4.2 doesnt do it shes just to far gone to save.

I have modded the hell out of it and gave it to my girl, she's so happy cuz I gave her an android phone and she's never had a smartphone, so to her discovery of all the mods Ive done to it, she has been promoting my business so I been busy and away from here doing that and wow, who'd have thought two years ago I'd have started a business Modding and repairing computers for people...

Still my daily driver, KitKat seems to be running solid with CyanAoSP, so I guess I will use it til it breaks, which I don't think is likely to happen!

Mini MP3 player to sync my phone with?

When going the gym, lugging my Note 2 around isnt the most practical.
Anyone aware of any MP3 player I can sync and play music from?
Wifi is available in the gym, so that is all good.
Preferably relatively low cost too (if possible) and the smaller the better.
Thanks.

Thought of bluetooth headphones? Is it having the note on your body you don't like, or carrying it around?

Samsung makes a player called the Pebble. Very small and without a screen, but you can sync music from your phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium

Thanks for the replies.
The S Pebble sounda like it could do the trick. Would mean syncing before I go but a wifi / mp3 player is more expensive.

Samsung Muse

Well ive researched the Muse and isn't readily available in the uk.
Could anyone recommend a cheap Android Phone? Even second hand? Preferably under £50.
I was planning to use my old Sensation, but that is water damage d beyond repair (well, for less than £50 anyway).
Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2

Motoactv is the way I went. You can find the 8gbs for about $120 on amazon. I use mine as a mp3 player with my jay bird blubud X's. If it's for the gym the battery should last you for roughly 3+ hours.
If you're into modding you can root the motoactv and turn it into a mini tablet.
I'm sure you can use something like Kies or Google play as a work around as well. I still use my Nexus One and other Google phones as mp3 players when in a pinch as well.

I have an AT&T Xperia TL (running the latest AT&T stock firmware) and I can't say that I'd recommend getting one. I've had a number of strange problems with it. Both mobile data & bluetooth shut themselves off at random. (and won't turn back on unless you restart the phone) When you're playing music, it will occasionally just stop or start playing a different track (I've seen this behavior with several music apps, including the built in one, Spotify and Google Play Music) and it crashes out of games on regular basis. Also, camera performance was disappointing; the 8MP shooter in my Galaxy Skyrocket was better. In the end, I called AT&T and they eventually agreed to let me out of my contract early and allowed me to choose a new phone. I picked the LG Optimus G Pro and am currently waiting for it to arrive.
