Bluetooth Keychains locator! Very interesting device - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

This is the first time I have heard of this device. I think this is very interesting:
http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/sticknfind-bluetooth-powered-ultra-small-location-stickers?c=home
Note 2 is one of the very first device tested with this gadget.

you supposed to post it in accessories section

Very cool idea! I like that I can stick it on my wife's car so I can have it back in my pants before she walks in.
My phone that is.

That's what she said! Lol! Sorry... Couldn't resist Looks pretty cool though... Could be handy for over bearing parents, slutty spouses, tin foil hat wearers, forgetful people, etc... Might have to order one ha!

I had a set delivered this week by an associate for me to test. For me the hard part is to figure out what to stick it to. Looking forward to testing them out.

Yeah, it's a cool idea in theory but all you can really use it on is the TV remote or car/house keys due to the fact it's Bluetooth we're talking about and not GPS.

Yup, was just about to reply to what you. haha but they have these kind of watches already. They sell a lot on eBay and some are good. Its just Bluetooth paired so you don't have to take out your phone. Makes you look like inspector gadget. Plus, I think thinkgeek.com has some too. I like the shirt that lets you know when wifi is near and how strong of signal.

Every shipping date they've previously stated has been missed. Although they seem to be quite insistent that they will start shipping "soon". They haven't told any personal customers any actual shipping dates. But Expansys seem to think that they'll be able to sell some from mid-April.
I wouldn't hold your breath.

Maybe before you give other people punctuation lessons, you should learn to spell. ANYHOW is one word.....just saying.
The site was updated this april and the price is now 340 € from where it was 300€ before too mich expensive. But the problem isno body had recieved yet. They promise to send the watches a year ago..

I saw a preview of this watch and OS looks sluggish with android 1.6...2.3 would of been better. The Motorola ACTV watch looked way smoother, and it's rooted already i think lol..
Couldn't this be easily accomplished with apps on the iphone and, say, an ipod nano?
any update on this watch?

why would you do all that on a tiny ass screen? a watch is a watch and leave it at that.
you will always carry a phone anyway so all those things u do on your watch is irrelevant

KREYOS Smartwatch on Indiegogo

Hey guys,
I saw this smartwatch on Indiegogo the other day and I think it's pretty sweet.
http://igg.me/at/kreyos/x/2722203
Looking at the specs sheet alone its definitely something.
What do you guys think? Get it or wait till more is out?

Well if that's the case, I doubt it'll be anytime soon. Seeing as there hasn't really been any leaks for a Google smartwatch so far.
Kreyos it is....for now.
I love the voice search thing. Hopefully it has full support for Google Now. A watch is useless without voice recognition.
However, I like to be able to stream music remotely to it and plug in my 3.5mm headphones. I know that's asking a bit much, but I think it's somewhat reasonable. Does anybody else think that should be a thing?
I'll wait for a Nexus watch. Google will have the most optimized watch for Android. Hopefully.
I backed this up the first day it was on indiepop. We'll see come november how it works with android phones. Even if an nexus watch does come out, I highly doubt it'll have a speaker, voice control AND be waterproof.
Ive been looking for a good smart watch for a while, have been waiting to see what comes about.
The nexus one i cant see coming out for a good 6 months + yet,
The new sony watch looks gorgeous but function is a bit boring, the greykos function looks good but i think
it looks ugly!
I thought so too at first, but I guess the design grew on me.

Haha. Smartwatch was implied, my good man. There is no way a watch can achieve its full potential if you can't enter text into it.
I've been using Casio watches for like the past 10 years. Great stuff, but I'm ready to make the switch to Smartwatches.
Just went ahead and the pledged for it.. Hopefully it's worth the 129$

Been a fair while since the last post here, but just to let anyone seeing this know Kreyos STILL haven't sent out these damn watches.
The first 5000 have been sent via ship to the US but now have apparently been stopped by the US longshoreman contract negotiations, this being the fourth delay in shipping.
I've backed out and bought a Gear Live watch instead.
Android Wear shows far more promise than Kreyos' watches and I suggest anyone that wants their watch before Smartwatches are a thing of the past should just ask for a refund and get something that can actually ship before hell freezes over.

Phone stolen. Does anyone know how Verizon can help?

So my best friends HTC one was stolen at gun point and he switched his service back over to an old iphone and we were wondering if verizon could do anything about it or there are any apps to find it. For some reason lookout wouldnt find it but it did take a picture of the guy who stole it because he put in a password wrong 5 times. If anyone has any suggestions just let me know.

There is that new app that Google has on all their phones I can't remember what it's called but if he set it up he can remote wipe... If he carries insurance I think its covered.

I would possibly yea give that a try!
but he may sell it, and the guy who bought it had no idea, then hopefully can track back to the thief.

he already switched the service over. idk if that matters.
Android device manager? It can only remotely swipe if you have given it Admin permission in your google settings, but it can and will locate the phone.

Sign into the google you set the phone up with.
find this scum of the earth!!
Thief would have to get it unlocked and on WiFi to locate now. Cell data went back to the old iPhone he said. So the op's friend is likely screwed.

unless you dont secure your device. I dont have a passcode unlock on my phone, but I've been trying to get tasker set up to turn it on when I leave my house, or some nfc tag to lock it when I leave
If it was still active there is an app in play store called Plan B where you could push app to the phone and get GPS location from it but as stated, if service was disconnected this won't work.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk 2
That's horrible.
Android Device Manager works pretty much just like Apples Find My iPhone. It allows you to locate the device on a map and remotely wipe it.
However, with the One you have to actually go into the settings and enable it.
Unfortunately, as others have said, even if it were enabled, your friend has already turned the service to the One off, so the only way I can see would be if the One connects to a WiFi network.
Sucks... this is why I am so glad I live in Virginia and can carry a handgun anywhere I go.

So instead of giving him the phone and going home to your family you will try to draw your weapon and either kill someone or be killed? All for $600? The lawyer will charge you 50x that just to get you out of the slammer. Give the guy the phone and go home and hug your kids, your wife, your mother or all of the above. Use the gun for target practice.

The minute someone draws a weapon on you, your life is gravely in danger. You respond according by handing over your belongings and tucking your tail then ending up in the paper because they raped your girlfriend in front of you, stole your phone and executed you. I prefer just to end the altercation with my 45. I'll take court over that.

Phone Case Insanity

While digging around for alternative cases, I found this.

Sent from my SM-N910T using Tapatalk
it's snakehead. From the pictures it looks like a real snake skin that they left the head on and is plopped in the middle of the back. I'm hoping it's big enough to use as a stand. I was on the fence about ordering one, but damn, this is just bat s__t crazy.
Wtf
Well they probably ate the meat
These have been available for a good few years, if you have interest in these, do check if they are genuine snake or fake, If they are real snakes do check with customs and cites, it's illegal to import these without a permit and approval certificate from cites.
And since the shops does not have approval for these, it's unlikely you can get approval from cites.
