Four months free promotion for Google Play Music Posted: 24 Dec 2016 04:51 AM PST GPM are doing an end of year deal where you can get a four month free trial - http://play.google.com/music/listen?signup=1&coupontype=vanity&coupon=YEAREND120. I've successfully redeemed the code (YEAREND120) on my account, even after signing up to GPM with a three months free promotion. My last free trial was a three month trial in December 2015 and I last paid for a full monthly subscription in April 2016. To prevent spam, please let me know whether it works under this comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/5k2ww1/four_months_free_promotion_for_google_play_music/dbl63vx Edit: It looks like it doesn't work if you have an active subscription. You must cancel your subscription, wait until the subscription runs out and hope the coupon is still active then. [link] [comments] | ||
Parents - Ask Google assistant where Santa Clause is right now! Posted: 24 Dec 2016 05:18 PM PST Couldn't find the Santa Tracker on any of the news stations, so I tried asking Google assistant! My 6 year old was even impressed! [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 24 Dec 2016 09:01 AM PST It totally worked for me but I never knew this was the problem until today. I was surprised how much lint was packed in there! You really can't see it from the outside. [link] [comments] | ||
Archiving CM for every devices (Just in case) Posted: 24 Dec 2016 02:14 PM PST So we heard the news and even though CM is going to be back with a new branding, I didn't know if they were gonna keep all the snapshots and nightlies for every devices. So I started archiving them. Because they are changing their brand so they might not keep the CM branded snapshots. Here's the links that I extracted: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/fc4eb84ec65a1095bec05af0f70ec2f5 I've already downloaded and uploaded the snapshots (every one that I could find) to archive.org. CM Snapshots: https://archive.org/details/cmarchive_snapshots Direct directory link: https://archive.org/download/cmarchive_snapshots I was also going to download the nightlies as well but they are built every night so I'm sure when to download them. Also I'm leaving my apartment right now so I won't be on my computer for a while. Leave suggestions below! And if you want to contribute that'll be great as well. Thanks! And happy holidays everyone.

Has anyone noticed SwiftKey gradually getting worse? Posted: 24 Dec 2016 07:07 PM PST I used to love SwiftKey. I paid for it back when it was still 3.99. Now, I'd say a third of the time that I type, whatever I put gets replaced to something else. For example, when u (I typed letter "I" right there and it replaced it with "u"). Anyway lost my thought. When I type "i" half the time it gets replaced with 8 or u. Flow doesn't work nearly as well as it did when I first downloaded SwiftKey back on my nexus 4 and seems to get less and less accurate as updates to on. My dad says it's gotten noticeably worse on his phone too so now I'm wondering if it's happening to more people. [link] [comments] | ||
[DEV] Custom Quick Settings 2.0 & 25% off for Christmas Posted: 24 Dec 2016 11:36 AM PST Hi, today I'm releasing Custom Quick Settings 2.0. It's a massive update and a total rewrite of the app, with tons of new features and a much better implementation than the old version. To sum up the new features (this is the changelog basically):
There were some things I had to change though, most importantly you're now limited to 20 tiles, whatever the Android version (previously it was only Android 7.x). I don't see this as an issue because: 1.) There's no proper scrolling of tiles on 6.x, so it becomes hard to even add more than ~9 2.) Unless you're using the quick settings as an app drawer, I can't many people using over 20 custom tiles. If you do - email me or drop me a PM and I'll consider raising the limit to 50 or something Tiles should NOT get broken in the update, but, as ever with app updates (especially when everything is re-made), it may happen Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quinny898.app.customquicksettings I've also dropped the price for Pro (shortcuts, click widgets, weather live tiles, icon pack support) down 25% for Christmas (until December 27th), enjoy :) [link] [comments] | ||

[Dev] A fitness app for us who don't go to the gym Posted: 24 Dec 2016 07:15 AM PST We at Wired Up Studios have released our first version of our fitness app I Did it: Fitness Center. The purpose of this app is to take everyday tasks like checking Facebook or eating a snack and turning it into an opportunity to do a quick exercise. Do the exercise click the check mark and you are done. Easy as that. You can check your stats for the day and month (more to come) and see how much you are doing certain activities and how much exercise you done. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wiredupstudios.ididitfitnesscenter [link] [comments] | ||
What are some of the worst ways a phone has died on you or you killed it? Posted: 23 Dec 2016 09:41 PM PST I had my LG G4 for not too long. Only served me about 9 months and then bootlooped its way to death. So I was wondering how have your phones died? [link] [comments] |
