Presumably the technical docs that Google is keeping secret and under NDA that outline how to implement the AA protocol and make head units.
Reverse engineering this stuff is slow and difficult, albeit possible.
Presumably somebody somewhere may get into trouble for this.

Update on Bootloaders

message from HTC on Facebook :
Thanks so much for providing feedback, we hear your concerns. Your satisfaction is a top priority for us and we're working hard to ensure you have great experiences with our phones. We're reviewing the issue and our policy around bootloaders and will provide more information soon. Thank you for your interest, support and willingness to share your feedback.

sounds great no ?
Sounds great but it doesn't mean anything. Until they actually unlock the bootloaders it's all just talk.
It's a step in the right direction.
At least they'll review it.

Using Tasker and Pebble Tasker

Anyone care to walk me through how to use these two programs? I've looked on line for tutorials but they don't seem to address that. Anyone? Bueller?
Pebble tasker in the play store
I'm about to write a little guide about this topic, I just need to find some freetime for it.

I'd be happy to test drive it and review if you'd like.
I hope tomorrow or the day after I can publish it. :fingers-crossed:

Cool. I"ve read where you can use Pebble Tasker to open different Canvas watchfaces, check weather, and other functions by programming the buttons on the watch. That's what I need to learn how to do. To start.

Any luck on the guide? I certainly need it!
@rogerperk: I actually uploaded it yesterday. You can find it over HERE.
It might not answer all your questions, but I believe it's a good starting point.

Clicking ph no in email to dial

Hey gang, not sure if this is ROM issue or general Shamu issue. Maybe someone can shed some light. When I try to click on a phone number in an email it doesn't make the call; Where most other devices have. If I hold it for a couple seconds I can copy, etc. But that's not what I need!!
TIA!!

Blame apple and their lawyers for excessive litigation. Sometimes its easier to just say 'eff-it' than to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars and years to fight them over something small.

mine works just fine. i click on the number and it takes me to the dialer with the number already input. might be a ROM issue at this point since i'm stock rooted.

Ah Yes, gmail does if you use the mobile international dialling version (UK for example starts +44). In Gnmail it is underlined and clearly a link. In Inbox, it is not underlined but does work.

Fusion table

Folks! I've been trying to find an example snippet of connecting to a Google Fusion Table (Presumably through Google API) using Android Studio, but so far can find nothing. Is there an example out there or some guideline?
cheers

While not an exact snippet this should lead you in a good direction take a look at the "ODK Aggregate" section of this knowledge base article. Also you can read the API (Which is a Google API as you had wanted!) for connecting Java and Fusion Tables here. Let me know if you have any more questions happy to answer them as best I can!

Unfortunately no, you can`t open a thread here and ask for people to contact you or any other company in order to receive a device to promote reviews .
We allow device reviews obviously but we don`t intermediate the reviewers and the device owners on open threads.
This might turn into a business and this is against the forum rules
13. Advertising and Income Generation
Commercial advertising ...

7. Do not sell or trade on the forums.
If you wish to advertise a product, simply contact us. We can provide ads but you are not permitted to just post it in the forums. If you do, it will be removed and you're likely to receive a ban.

I know you may say you`re doing for free but we do not encourage this kind of trades, your best choice is to contact the admin.

unfortunately you would need to wait for them to respond as they would be busy as well.
Alternatively try pinging @MikeChannon maybe he could help you as well.

Who did you email?
I see no record on the webmaster email account.
But as said already we have rules that prevent commercial activity. Although this would not be a "selling" thread it woud presumably be to gain reviews to help sales of a conmmercial product.

Maybe we are misunderstanding what you are wanting to do.
If you have no interest in the company that produces the bluetooth headset then why do you want the person to write a review(s)?

Well ok but nvertheless a commercial company would be benefiting from getting reviews. That's where the problem lies for us.

It's ok for a User to write a review here when they have chosen to do it. But it is a problem if they are only writing it in return for a free product. In a sense that means the review has been "bought".
