Tip: Quickly Remove the Ongoing WiFi Notification on Verizon Phones

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

The ongoing notification on most of Verizon’s new smartphones, oh how we despise you so. We still can’t figure out why Verizon decided to eliminate the quick WiFi toggle on some phones in favor of this pesky, non-removable ongoing*notification, but that’s exactly what they have done. As long as you are away from home or work, even if you are miles away from the nearest WiFi network, Verizon has decided that your phone should constantly remind you that turning on WiFi would be awesome.*
We have talked about ways to remove this, but unfortunately, it’s now being tied to “Android System” which makes it really tricky. Thankfully, a couple of our readers figured out that if you long press on the notification, and go to “App info,” that you can Force stop the action and temporarily get rid of it until your next phone reboot or WiFi toggle. I should mention again that this is sort of tricky ground, as you are force stopping “Android System,” however, so far we haven’t heard of any massive crashes or issues after doing this.
So if you’d like to remove that ongoing notification temporarily, give this trick a try. Just remember that after you reboot your phone or toggle your WiFi on or off, you’ll have to do it again.
Cheers*Addison!

The “FACKWORS” Shirt.

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

Who would have thought that as I blasted the Google Play store for its poor handling of the 2nd Nexus 4 launch, that the number 1 takeaway from it would have been my failure to correctly type a CAPTCHA? Enter the word FACKWORS, which readers have been ribbing me over for weeks now. It’s a word that has become somewhat famous in the depths of the DL community, even prompting the creation of its own shirt.
That’s right, the FACKWORS shirt is real and available in a variety of colors. I tossed out the idea of making it into a shirt, and enough of you responded with a “Yes!” One reader already managed to buy and receive his. That’s dedication to the cause. And look, we fully understand how silly it is, but that’s sort of what makes it brilliant.
We set up a special shop for it. There is the ultra-inexpensive version with black or white lettering that drops in at $12.50 plus shipping. Then we also gave you the option of going with a higher quality American Apparel cotton, which can be had for $20.20. There is no mark-up or commission on our end.

Verizon’s Galaxy Nexus Receives CM 10.1 Nightlies, Flash Without Losing Any Data

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

The jump from Android 4.1 to 4.2 apparently didn’t confuse developers that much and fans of CyanogenMod will be happy for that. The first nightly build of CM 10.1 for Verizon’s Galaxy Nexus, otherwise known as ‘toro’, has just been posted and is available for download now.*
If you aren’t satisfied enough, the CM team has better news for you. The team’s Google+ was updated and said that the build has been ‘tested extensively on older devices’ and that you shouldn’t need to wipe data when upgrading to 10.1. The only caveat is the Clock app does not work at the moment. CM’s version of the application and Google’s don’t play nice, but if you need to fix it just clear the Clock app’s data in the Settings menu.

Sony “Yuga” Device to Feature 5

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

According to overseas sources, Sony is planning to release their next flagship device sometime in Q1 of 2013. The device is codenamed Yuga, but not much is known about the phone except for some photos shown above and handful of specs. A site that claims to have the device in their possession, says the phone sports a brilliant 5″ 1080p display, powered by the new Snapdragon S4 Pro chip, along with 2GB of RAM.*Additionally, the phone is said to have a 12MP back-facing camera, as well as run Android 4.1.*
Last year in Vegas, Sony launched their Xperia lineup which could mean they would feel comfortable to do the same this year. If not CES, then there is always MWC in Europe.
Interested in anything Sony has to offer these days? Although I will say, I am liking the mainstreaming of 1080p devices.

New Root Method Released for Verizon’s Galaxy S3 Running Jelly Bean

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

With the official Jelly Bean (Android 4.1.1) update out for Verizon’s version of the Galaxy S3, we can imagine that some of you may have lost root in the process. Thankfully, an updated method to unlock the bootloader on the device (if you haven’t already) and root it is available.
The steps in the XDA thread below are about as straight forward as it gets. You need Odin (to flash some of the files), current and older firmware files for the device, SuperSU, and custom recovery. If you can’t follow the step-by-step guide linked below, a video of the instructions is included as well.*

Phases of the Moon Pro v2.8.3

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 05:53 PM PST








Requirements: 2.3+
Overview: See the current Moon phase with animations created by satellites!
See the current Moon phase with animations created by satellites.
Learn the current phase of the Moon with one of the most detailed and scientifically accurate visualizations ever made of the Moon.

☾"Beautiful to watch, and supports a great site." - Kolunya

This app shows you the current phase of the Moon, using a simulation of the lunar surface created by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance mission during its observations of the Moon.

☾"It does exactly what it says and helps support an awesome site." - Erik

The image accurately represents not only the current phase of the Moon, but also the distance to the Moon - updating in real-time. The Moon appears larger when it's closer, and smaller when it's more distant.

You can smoothly drag the Moon phase back and forth with your finger, or even "spin it" to quickly advance forwards or backwards. It's kind of hypnotic.

☽ Beautiful images of the Moon were made by NASA from data collected by spacecraft.

☽ See the current date, distance, phase name and illumination percentage.

☽ Swipe left and right to move forward or backwards in time to see what the Moon will look like in the future or past. It slides back and forth with "buttery" smoothness. Spin it faster or slower.

☽ Need to find the next full Moon? You can click a button to take you to the next full Moon or new Moon.

☽ You can also access a calendar that shows you the phase of the Moon for any date in the future.

☽ Share your phase of the Moon images on all the popular social networks

☽ Put a phase of the Moon widget right on your desktop

Developed by Universe Today. Please email me if you have any questions or there are any problems with your specific version of Android.

Moon images created by NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio

What's in this version:
- Next New/Full Moon precise date
- Moon Eclipse
- Bug fixes and improvements

Multiscreen Multitasking v4.1.1

Posted: 17 Dec 2012 05:53 PM PST



This is the closest you'll get to a Windows 'desktop mode' on your Android - multiscreen multitasking allows you to open up browsers, video player and text editors in resizable and moveable windows. Feel like you're in Minority Report - tile browsers and read more than one website at once, watch Avengers while reading the news, or open up a text document at the same time in order to take notes on what you're reading.

Send messages and check your e-mail without needing to stop browsing, or open maps and drawpad and then draw directions for someone... For those with tablets this allows for PC style multi-tasking and productivity - running the 'mini apps' currently included.

Features:

Option to choose your own desktop background
Word count
Spell check
Video player
Basic drawing/doodling
Find and Replace
Up to three browsers and two editors on screen at once
Resizeable windows
Maps
Double tap to maximize
Drag to the side to clip to half the screen
Zoom for both browser and text editor
Send e-mails from the editor
Send text and receive messages from the SMS terminal

Many more features are coming soon - please support this app if you want to see camera, file browsing, games and music functions added more quickly!

I have heard complaints recently about the app performing slowly on older devices. I'm looking into this next next update will be simple tweaks and refactoring to help it run quicker :-)

NOTE:
You can't click the toolbars when they are infront of browser windows or text views...

What's in this version : (Updated : Dec 15, 2012)

Portrait mode!
More intuitive use of the back button. Enjoy! :-D
LOTS of new features for the browsers
Overhauled look!
Music player

Improved draw pad
