Ready For Android 5.0?

By Will765 | Tablet Rom

 

Although the vast majority of android devices haven’t received an official update to Ice Cream Sandwich, android 4.0, rumors are that Google is preparing to release Jelly Bean, it’s next version, in the 2nd quarter of 2012.  Why would the company try to launch it so quickly?  Supposedly, this is in response to the upcoming Microsoft Windows 8.  Optimized for use on touch-screen tablets as well as desktops and laptops, Windows 8 is seen as a real alternative to android as an operating system.  The new android 5.0 is said to be able to dual-boot on tablets and other devices alongside Windows 8, and even to be able to switch operating systems without having to shut down.  Seeing as how ICS came out in November, and yet 3 months later most devices don’t have official updates, even if Jelly Bean comes out between April-June, likely no one will see it until towards the fall.  One thing Google needs to address is the lag time time between releasing it’s new os, and actually seeing it appear on devices.  The vast majority of the delay is due to manufacturers putting their own proprietary software into the new system.  This takes too long to work out all the bugs, and meanwhile the only ones who get the upgraded android are the hackers.  Some Chinese manufacturers have got the right idea, and released tablets with a very vanilla ICS, which have been available since December of 2011.  It would be very annoying if Google releases Jelly Bean before most of us get ICS on our tablets or phones.

If you have problems with the recovery file follow these instructions

the recovery-RA-GNM-OPT-T-test.img.zip won't be available. I used recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img from this link recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img
Just be sure when you are typing in commands for step #2 that you change recovery-RA-GNM-OPT-T-test.img to match the file you downloaded instead (recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img). Other than that it should be smooth sailing.

GOOD LUCK

Android Phones Take A Power Trip

From: The NY Times

You know the old techie joke, right? If you don’t like the Android phones on the market, just wait a minute.
There are dozens of Android phones, and newer, better ones appear every few months. Google subscribes to the Microsoft Windows scheme: write the software, and let other companies build the phones.
The result is a lot of choice, but also a lot of fragmentation. There is no one Android phone. Some models can be updated to new Android software, some can’t. A certain app might or might not run on your particular version.
That master plan differs quite a bit from the iPhone’s.
Apple designs “the whole widget,” as Steve Jobs used to say: both the software and the phone. The result is clean, reliable and consistent — but you’re limited to the features Apple wants to give you. For example, if you want a 4G phone (one that runs on the new, very fast Internet networks in big cities), you’re out of luck.
And a new iPhone, accompanied by a major software release, comes out only once a year, or less often. In any case, there’s a lot of news in Androidland. The three biggest players are Samsung, Motorola and HTC, and all three are offering beautiful marquee Android phones. All three are Verizon 4G phones.

The Best Android Phone of 2012

 

The year 2011 was all about “dual core”, becoming the standard for high-end smartphones. And we just witnessed what superphones like the Samsung Galaxy S II, DROID RAZR MAXX, and others are capable of. These phones are five times more powerful than anything released last year, and for this upcoming generation of devices, even more. So, what next? This year, chip-makers have come forth with quad core processors supporting mobile multitasking comparable to the performance of a desktop computer of a few years ago, powered by Tegra 3 SoC’s and TI’s OMAP equivalent. More cores equal more power and a faster smartphone; certainly they are likely to offer increased power savings and a performance increase in the range of 300-500%. And, they actually have power saving features embedded in them too. The players include HTC, Motorola, Sony, Samsung, LG, and Meizu. We will looking at the devices they are bringing to market so... STAY TUNED!!!!!

El año 2011 fue una cuestión de "doble núcleo", convirtiéndose en el estándar para los smartphones de gama alta. Y lo que acabamos de presenciar superphones como el Samsung Galaxy S II, Droid RAZR MAXX, y otros son capaces de hacer. Estos teléfonos son cinco veces más potente que cualquier otra cosa lanzada el año pasado, y por esta próxima generación de dispositivos, aún más. Así que, ¿qué sigue? Este año, los responsables de chips han salido con procesadores de núcleo cuádruple de apoyo móvil multitarea comparable con el desempeño de una computadora de escritorio de hace unos años, impulsado por Tegra 3 de SoC y equivalentes de TI OMAP. Más núcleos igual a más poder y más rápido smartphone, lo cierto es que es probable que ofrecen un mayor ahorro de energía y un aumento de rendimiento en el rango de 300-500%. Y, en realidad tienen funciones de ahorro de energía integrados en ellos. Los jugadores son HTC, Motorola, Sony, Samsung, LG y Meizu. Vamos a mirar los dispositivos que están lanzando al mercado así que ... Quédate con nosotros!!!

Atari embraces new era of gaming

(CNN) -- To adapt to the new era of gaming, Atari is returning to its roots.
The gaming pioneer -- which spearheaded arcade games and home video-game consoles -- is reinventing itself to adapt to the era of mobile and social games.
Atari has been synonymous with games and gaming since Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney founded it in 1972. The company's products, such as "Pong" and the Atari 2600, helped define the computer entertainment industry from the 1970s to the mid-1980s.
About five years ago, the company got away from developing its own games to focus on publishing and distribution. Atari CEO Jim Wilson said it was a complicated time for the company and the brand.
"(Atari) got bought by this retail distribution company that focused primarily on building non-Atari brands and distributing third-party titles," Wilson said. "The Atari name was then being used as a corporate name on a retail distribution company. That didn't make any sense to me."

Sign A Petition for Jailbreaking Is Not A Crime

Will rooting your smartphone be illegal soon?
Because of its open source nature, there are a lot of developers who are attracted to Android. This is why there is a strong force of tireless developers who comprise the Android modding community. Because of their cooperation with one another, they look forward to enriching each Android user’s experience by providing software mods and roots.
Sad to say, this whole ecosystem is at risk for extinction. Now that the jailbreaking (and rooting) exempted law formerly granted by the US Copyright Office is about to expire, those who jailbreak or root the software or their smartphones are facing legal threats and even criminal charges.
Fortunately, the Electronic Frontier Foundation is doing something against this. They are also collating supporters to help them renew the law that will keep modders and hackers out of prison. And they’re not stopping at just smartphones. They’re also pushing to include video game consoles and tablets in the exemption. Since they were the ones who filed for the original exemption 3 years ago, they have the experience to back them up.
Here’s a message from Rebecca Jeschke, EFF’s Media Relations Director and Digital Right Analyst:

“The law was never intended to limit legal activity with a device that was legally bought. It’s not good policy for consumers. The idea that you might face criminal charges because you altered your own property is totally unfair. The goal here is to make the law really clear.”

When the exemption was first introduced in 2010, Apple put up a good fight against it (that really didn’t surprise anyone). But it did worry its iOS users because Apple’s legal team is always on the hunt for stuff like this one.
If you want to join this cause, you can sign up for the petition by visiting jailbreakingisnotacrime.org.

Verizon’s ZTE V66 Tablet Pictured, with Dual-cores and 4G LTE

A few months ago the ZTE V66 passed through the FCC, before now heading over to the guys at Big Red. Now the tablet has popped up again on a trip to the Bluetooth SIG. We have a bit more information on the device now, but don’t get it confused with Sprint’s ZTE Optik which will be available next month, the ZTE V66 is packing a bit more power.
The ZTE V66 has a 7-inch, 1280×800 resolution display, powered by a 1.2GHz Dual-core processor, running Android 3.2 Honeycomb and of course full Verizon 4G LTE capability. Of course it does look a lot like any other typical Android tablet. We are hoping it also has a full gigabyte of RAM and possibly and Micro SD Card slot to expand the storage space.
Still no word on launch dates yet or pricing, but we are hoping it will keep the same price point as it’s cousin on Sprint, but it’s pretty unlikely given Verizon’s past. What do you think of this tablet? Worth the money? Hit up the comments with your thoughts.

 

Nearly hidden away at CES was a $149 Sony SmartWatch (due in March) that doubles as a Bluetooth command center for Android phones.
Featuring brushed chrome edges, the 1.3-inch OLED (65k color) touch screen features Bluetooth 3.0 and is compatible with Android phones from Sony, HTC, Motorola, Samsung, and others. You may remember its predecessor, the Live View accessory that Sony Ericsson released in late 2010.
The dust and splash proof SmartWatch is essentially the same story. The updated version is sleeker in appearance (and about 0.3-inches thick), has an accelerometer, can vibrate, and will launch with a colorful swatch of wristband accessories. A black wristband and wristband adapter is included.
In my brief experience with the device, it was responsive and attractive. Hitting a button displays the time, which you can then tap to reach the other apps. An option for continuous time display would probably cause the battery life to suffer greatly.

You can do many things through the techie timepiece, including the basics such as read SMS, e-mail, or the weather. In addition, a pop-up caller id prompt appears during incoming calls (allowing you to accept or deny), or check social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. I liked how it displays user icons with the status updates. I am on the fence in regards to the matter if it would be rude to look a watch during a conversation compared to a smartphone, though.

Apple co-founder prefers Android to iPhone

  

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak says he’s a fan of phones powered by Google’s Android mobile operating system, the Daily Beast reported. While still the proud owner of an iPhone, Woz admits that in certain situations -- such as voice commands and GPS -- Android is a better bet. “I have a lower success rate with Siri than I do with the voice built into the Android, and that bothers me,” Woz told the Daily Beast. “I’ll be saying, over and over again in my car, 'Call the Lark Creek Steak House,' and I can’t get it done. Then I pick up my android, say the same thing, and it's done.""Plus I get navigation. Android is way ahead on that," he added. The love for Android might seem somewhat strange, coming from someone so engrained in Apple culture and a legend among fans.

El cofundador de Apple Steve Wozniak dice que es un fan de los teléfonos alimentados por el sistema operativo Androide de Google móvil, informó el Daily Beast. Aunque sigue siendo el orgulloso propietario de un iPhone, Woz admite que en ciertas situaciones - como comandos de voz y GPS - Androide es una mejor apuesta."Tengo una menor tasa de éxito con Siri que yo con la voz integrado en el Androide, y eso me molesta", dijo Woz el Daily Beast. "Voy a estar diciendo una y otra vez en mi coche," Llama a los Lark Creek Steak House ", y no puedo hacerlo. Entonces tomo mi Androide, dicen lo mismo, y ya está. "Además, tengo la navegación. Androide está por delante en eso", agregó. El amor por Androide podría parecer un tanto extraña, viniendo de alguien tan arraigado en la cultura de Apple y una leyenda entre los aficionados. La relación entre Apple y Google ha crecido polémicas en los últimos años después de que éste entró en el mercado de los teléfonos móviles. Tan convencido de que la oferta de la gigante de las búsquedas era un descarado "rip-off", juró la tarde, Steve Jobs, de hacer todo lo posible para "destruir a Androide". Entonces no era sorpresa cuando una foto de Woz salir en el campus de Google, revisando una versión pre-lanzamiento del teléfono de Google más reciente estrella, causó un gran revuelo en la escena de tecnología en noviembre. Nunca un ser rencoroso, Woz adopta un enfoque pragmático. De hecho, él y Andy Rubin, quien dirige el proyecto Androide, hace mucho tiempo. "Conozco a Andy mucho tiempo, y yo lo respeto mucho", dijo Wozniak. "Mi teléfono primario es el iPhone", dijo Woz el Daily Beast. "Me encanta la belleza de ella. Pero me gustaría que hizo todas las cosas a mi Androide es, de verdad. "Aún así, cree que el iPhone es probablemente la mejor opción para muchos usuarios. "La gente te recomiendo el iPhone 4S son los que ya están en el mundo Mac, porque es muy compatible, y las personas que están asustados de las computadoras en conjunto y no quieren usarlos. El iPhone es lo menos aterrador. Para ese tipo de persona que tiene miedo de la complejidad, así, aquí hay un teléfono que es fácil de usar y hace lo que se tiene que hacer ", dijo.
