My first app in Market, a campfire client!

Hey guys, I put out my first app into the android market independently and just thought I'd pimp it here. It's a 37 signals campfire client that's made specifically for the galaxy nexus. It's super ice cream sandwichy and is buttery smooth to use. I couldn't find a campfire client on android that was really good looking so I made my own. Check it out.

No idea what campfire is....but the app looks great. Very ICS like

This isn't a campfire. I, for one, love campfires.

Seems good but I just stopped using campfire lol. Maybe make a basecamp app?

Looks like a chat room, $5 though.... I think I'll pass if it's just a chat room.
And you should add a black version, consumes less power on AMOLED displays.

I think $5 is fair. For a really good quality app, it'll cost some money. I put a ton of time into making this thing both look good and function super well.

Aesthetically you did a nice job, and as a graphic artist I think 4.99 for hardwork and a nice app is more than reasonable.

The Ui is perfect great Work!!
I love the ics style

Buy the A100, yes or no?

1saleaday is selling it on today's flash sale for $170. I'm fine with the price, but I'm wondering if it's a good tablet? I'll probably be using it more for reading, internet browsing, watching movies while traveling, maybe very very light gaming. I'm comfortable flashing recoveries/rom's, using ADB, etc. But is it a decent daily tablet?

I love it go for it cost is very nice ...

Depends on you, really. For me its great, but less then great battery life and 1 bad viewing angle may make it unbearable for you. Me, I just learned my way around it. Only real flaws I'd give it in general, not counting defects. Wifi is a little on the weak side as well.

$170 is a steal for a GREAT ice cre sandwich tablet with minimal flaws. Much better than the kindle Fire, has FULL android (play store, google apps)...has hdmi (great for tv hookup and a good tegra 2 processor for gaming I would say go for it, it's one of the best tablets for the price

Archos 10.1 tablet for digital art

Hi I'm thinking of buying a tablet to do some art and was thinking of getting a note 10.1 and saw this tablet as a cheaper option, I wanted to know what the responsiveness is like if I wanted to use a stylus with it (dagi stylus looks good)
Do you recommend me holding out for the 10.1 note or buy this as a cheaper option.
I'm very tempted to buy this tablet but don't want to make a mistake.
Think I should have put this in the gen9 general, can someone move it there please?

Are you talking about the 101it ?
Honestly if you can buy a more recent tab I would suggest you to do it (I heard that the Samsung ones are not that bad)

To be honest I'm not that clued up about tablets, I did see there was a g9 10 inch archos which is cheap if I buy from amazon but after reviews I've read about the touchscreen failing and usb port braking and people having to send theirs back the archos doesn't seem too reliable.
I just wanted option of drawing directly onto a tablet instead of a art tablet connected to my usb on my laptop.
You think I should get one? Would using a stylus cause loads of lag while drawing?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

I don't know about the gen9 but the gen8 that I own is not that responsive and precise...
It's way behind your galaxy S3 (at least concerning the gen8)
But once again I've never seen a gen9 so I can't tell anything about it

Thanks, think I'm better off saving then. Nothing wrong with seeking out a bargain though but I guess it just wasn't meant to be.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

I'm guessing the Gen 10 will be good, but honestly, the note tablet would be my first choice for an art tablet because of the s pen. My note phone is great.

Thanks, had a go of the note 10.1 and it was very responsive, had to press a bit hard to register anything but I loved it.

I own a g9 tablet with a capacitive stylus. The touch screen is very responsive but have a very bad precision...
A Samsung note will be better for art, due to s pen.
But the only true way to do some art is a graphic tablet with a PC or MAC.

Nexus S : 4.2.2 rooted Stock ROM
Archos 80G9 : Trying CM10.1 ...

OT. Help me pick a tablet.

Hi all. It's not often that I start a thread around here. Feel free to keep this going for other people looking to spend their gift cards.
So I am between 2 tabs: Nexus 7 and Galaxy 2 7.0.
From what I'm reading, it looks like the specs are a little better on the Nexus but it's really hard to be a deal I found on a refurb Galaxy tab on Amazon ($170).
The lack of expandable storage and HDMI concern me a little with the Nexus but all reports seen to indicate that it's just an incredible device. Plus if I get the Galaxy tab i kind of feel like I'm just getting a bigger version of this phone.... though it does have official cm support.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance for your help with my 1st world problem.

I picked myself up a galaxy 2 7.0 refurb and I'm liking it. Just fyi, look at walmart online because they have it for $150 refurbish. Just check everyday because they restock often. I was thinking about the nexus 7 but two thing hold me off on it: the lift screen problem and the price.

What is the lift screen issue?

What are your thoughts on only having 16gb? I would plan on having a couple bigger games on it but wouldn't carry music or many movies.

You can pick up a moto Xoom for $219 on N1 wireless XD it has 32 GB of storage plus an SD card slot and a 10.1 inch display

Can't help with those choices but I have to gloat a bit...got an ASUS TF700 with the keyboard and am loving it!

I have the 7.0 plus tab and I love it. I bought my dad the nexus 7 16 gig and having played with it its a top notch device. If I were to buy a device from your choices I would pick the nexus but I would get the 32 gig one. I just believe you can never have enough memory. But I do love having an memory card and it makes everything so much easier. You can't go wrong with either device. I think it comes down to personal preference.

Note 10.1 hands down its just like the phone

Galaxy note 10 since it has mulitwindow

I jist got 2 galaxy tab 2 10.1 for me and my oldest son for xmas. I have to say its a great tab for the money I like it alot better than my nexus 7 due to size and my moms nexus 10 which is the same size but is missing a few features in lieu of bigger proc and ram. Which on the tablet you dont notice really since theres not a lot of phone related stuff running in the background. They also have sd slots for expansion
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

It's just my personal experience. I had the Tab 2 7.0 for about 5 months and now I have the nexus 7 since day 1. I have it mainly for the kids whether playing games or watching movies. I rarely use it for some reading and browsing.
I have to say there is no comparison. Nexus 7 is a LOT better. The screen is way better whether the specs, visibility, brightness or the dirt and finger print collection. Also, the speed and responsiveness. It is a lot faster and the touch is more accurate and responsive.
The tab 2 is better in terms of extra hardware. A microSD slot, a back camera and an HDMI port. So, if you can get past these, you have to get the Nexus.
I have 4 tablets now (well, the HP is now broken) and I never used the back camera except for testing purposes. Another thing is I never ran out of space. Of course this is very subjective. You can have a couple of 2GB games and that would clutter the space. Also, I have a Google TV and a Wii and they are my entertainment center (though not something to brag about).
So, for me, I would say: Definitely go with the nexus.
I never used a Motorola product, so I don't know anything about it. I just like the 7 inches size better than the 10 inches. It is lighter, easier to handle and the battery usually lasts better.
Hope this helps...

My gt2 10.1 is lighter than my kindle fire and barely different from my nexus 7. Having gps on it is nice tho makes turn by turn easy as hell to use while driving since I dont have to strain to see it. Plus the IR blaster is great my tablet now controls my tv, pc and satellite set top box. I dont use my nexus 7 much anymore between my note 2 and gt2 its become obsolete.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

The Nexus 7 without a doubt. I have the 16GB version and I love it. I have used other tablets (Herotab C8, Asus TF 101) and have handled many others, and without a doubt the Nexus 7 is without a doubt the best I have used. Clean, easy to modify, and most of the development work is pretty stable. It is by far the best one going.

Thanks everyone. I just ordered the nexus 7 32gb from Amazon for $240 including a case. Now is a good time to buy.
Decided that hardware and probably 2 years of updates was most important. Can't wait to play Vice City on this thing!

Great thread. Im looking for a tablet. Nexus 7 looks like the best. I just bought the kids 2 cheap Iview 7 in 4.04 tabs. 1.2ghz There great for a 2 and 4 year old Lol. They came pre rooted! Yes my toddler has a rooted overclocked tab!! As I used them a bit a 7 in tablet is perfect. 10 inch tabs are big and midas well get laptop out. 7 inch tabs fit in back pocket. Let us know how you like the nexus.

End of nexus 7?

Noticing that Google Play is selling out their nexus 7's and Asus is offering the bonus promotion for the nexus 7 along with other stores like Walmart dropping the price dramatically does it mean its on its way out? I know there are posts about the nexus 8"flounder" and such do you think its the end for the tablet? Should I pick one up now or wait for the n8? Walmart dropped the price in store to $215 for the 32gb version.

Agree on waiting. Even if the new version isn't for you, the 2013 version is fabulous and will only drop in price.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Is there any reason why it wouldn't be discontinued?
It's almost time for the summer refresh of android and a medium sized nexus tablet.
Do you want a 8" tab if rumors are accurate?
Is the potential release of android a64 a factor?
Do you want a HTC or ASUS designed device?
The 2013 N7 is nearing a year old, it has 2 major updates left expected in it's lifetime, with the summer one being one of them.
The 2014 N7/8 will definitely be more expensive as long as stock doesnt run out on the 2013 N7
(current price vs price of leftovers after release)

I would definitely wait on the 8! It's just around the corner and it will be worth the updated hardware and hopefully screen size bump.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am not looking forward to an 8" screen. Those are not as good for HD movie viewing. Also the 7" is compact enough to be very portable. I would jump at a 2014 Nexus but not sure I would if it's 8". Time will tell but I need portable to be able to take it with me on Mass Casualty Incidents and Search and Rescue deployments.

I find 7" a bit too small and 10" a bit too big. 8" should be just right. If HTC is making it, that's just icing on the cake. If it's not too expensive I'll probably get one for my wife.

I think I would be happy with an 8" tablet since I it would be a 'nicer' jump in size from 5" phone. On the other hand it would stretch carrying/holding it one handed.

Right??? I get **** all the time by people who use giant tablets and I gotta say... Compensate much? Lol really though, this thing has more than enough power if taken care of, can take quite the beating as far as my uses go annnd it fits in your pocket in a pinch. My favorite thing to do is put it in a leather case and hide it in a pile of books. Can't do that with 10 inches. Kind of the motion in the ocean solution. If you catch my tide...

I love the 7 inch tablet, honestly would love a 7 inch phone that has the form factor of a phone not a tablet with very little bezzle. I think the n7 will perform well for a long while. I am in no hurry to upgrade. I am less likely to upgrade a tablet than I am a phone

I bought one. I haven't had a tablet since the Asus transformer t100 lol. Threw Kali on it and just use it for "pentesting" other than that I got some clip on joysticks from Walmart for 50cents so I'll use it to game. Its alright I guess I really really hate typing on it because of the lack of vibrations Haha. Just wish they'd put that in a tablet I love the tablet but its a bit slower than my nexus 5(which is understandable) lack of Rome(exciting) kinda bothers me but overall I'll use it until I buy the 8 lol also got a scratch on the screen a week after I had it and I have no idea how it got there. Oh well. Thanks for the input guys :3
