    Free Cloud Storage Library for Android (GitHub)

    Hey Guys, The company I work for (also full disclaimer there), has just released a new library which we hope makes integrating Cloud Storage a lot simpler for everyone. With the way this has been developed, functions are universal across services. So the way you upload a file for, say, Dropbox...

    What Bluetooth gamepad should I get?

    I actually really liked the Zeemote, but doing a few google searches it doesn't seem to be avaliable any more. There are some apps on the app store that should get your Mogapocket (or any other gamepad for that matter) working with all Android games and applications. Try out "MOGA Universal...

    Is the Google Glass project finish ?

    Google are kind-of expanding the project outwards. The latest news is that they are focusing on business customers and other wearables underneath the "glass" banner. All in all, I think the impression with Google is that Google Glass was a flop, without wide public acceptance over the potential...

    Re: why wont my s2 download apps Have you fixed this yet? If not, check to see if there are any proxy settings checked under your WIFI or Data Connection. If so, turn it off. This fixes the problem for some people.

    Amazon prime vs Google music

    The other thing is that that the Google Music matching recommendation engine is amazing. Found so much great music from it it's unreal.

    What's your TV tech?

    My current setup: Mac Mini: For when I want to do really heavy duty things with the TV. Play video games, full web browsing, etc. I have a keyboard and mouse stored underneath my coffee table for this function. Chromecast: Because mostly, I'm in front of my TV with my laptop and it is easy to...

    How great is Google Cardboard?

    I have found that my Google Cardboard has become a "show off" device as opposed to something I use. When I first got it I remember being amazed by it for about two hours, including watching Adventure Time through it. The problem is though, is how used I am to multitasking. And I think this is...

    Orange is the new black

    I know a lot of people didn't like the newest season, but it was actually one of my favourites. Gonna be as vague as possible for fear of spoiling anyone, but Piper being on her way to becoming an actually interesting character, the lack of the "Big Bad" of season 2 (really really didn't think...

    Will battery packs become irrelevant soon?

    I don't think external battery packs are ever really going to go away. As said, there are too many different use cases where a battery pack is needed. Take me; I will be on a long travel trip soon, involving plenty of coaches. I'm not going to be sure if I will be able to access the plug...

    My Samsung Galaxy S5 using too much power. Battery does not last 12 hrs. What can I do ?

    I second this: I was finding problems with my Note 5. Brought an Anker Battery from Amazon, and all was solved. Another thing to consider is the Juice Defender app; I know that when I was on the Nexus 4 is was invaluable in keeping my battery alive and also helping me find out what was causing...

    Going to the Dark Side? - Android to iPhone

    One thing you need to consider when making the switch is that, if you switch back to Android (new job, etc) then you need to be aware of the iMessages problem. That is, it is possible that your messages won;t get through to other people after you have made the switch back to Android (a google...

    What is the attraction of stock Android over a skin (touchwiz)?

    For me: I haven't managed to find a non-stock theme that I like with simple appearance. And as others have said, there is something to be said about having the pure Google experience; it's nice knowing that the device that I use is using an operating system exactly as Google intended.
