X-post to an intersting discussion taking place on /r/projectara: I'm re-energized about the prospects of Project Ara following Google I/O. As an embedded systems engineer, I'm excited about using Ara in ways other than as a mobile device

Why doesn't Google Play Music have a sleep timer?

Posted: 21 May 2016 08:04 PM PDT

I use GPM on both my iPhone and Android tablet and one thing I've always wondered is why the iPhone version has a sleep timer and the Android version doesn't. This seems like an obvious feature that should be included in all music players especially with the advent of podcasts. Just one more indication that Google treats its Android apps as second class citizens compared to their iOS counterparts.

Rise of USB-C and VR lead to future Video-In support?

Posted: 22 May 2016 05:06 AM PDT

With the recent rise of interest in the VR community and major Android manufacturers adopting some form of a VR headset, do you think there will be a future possibility of tethering your phone to use as a video output for a VR ready computer? USB 3.1 allows for fast enough transfer speeds to move 4K+ video much like an HDMI cable as well as provide power to the phone. I feel it would boost the development of the VR scene. The phone doesn't even need to startup into the Android OS, there could be a special button or combination of existing buttons to enable a mirroring mode.

Status of major loyalty programmes in UK Android Pay

Posted: 22 May 2016 01:07 AM PDT

Hi UK Android Pay users. Loving the ability to pay with my phone since last Wednesday! I'm not interested in talking about which banks are/aren't supported, but wanted to discuss the state of the major loyalty programmes in the UK (often these are the cards that clog up my wallet/keyring). I've found:

Morrisons - displays barcode, but no branding.

Waitrose - no barcode, no branding.

Nectar - no barcode, no branding.

Tesco - no barcode, no branding. Also, strangely, when I scan my card, the first 5 digits change from 63400 to 979... the rest of the number is the same.

Boots - displays barcode, but no branding. Also, strangely, when I scan my card, it adds 5 digits to the end, that don't appear on the card.

Subway - branding, but no barcode.

KFC - branding, but no barcode.

Anyone else seeing the same or different? Any others to add?

Anyone switched from iPhone recently?

Posted: 22 May 2016 11:09 AM PDT

Currently with an iPhone 6 and wanted to give the Samsung S7 edge a try. Been with iPhone all the time and wanted to see what you might miss from iOS.

Thank you!

This was after a 1 night camping trip with a good amount of signal at the camp as well as a portable Wi-Fi hotspot, the phone was off at night, but was heavily used for taking pictures during a hike, checking maps when driving around, and during down time (social media, editing photos in Google Photos, etc).
