Vignette is a much better camera app and has any filter you'll ever need, plus it's easy as hell to just share it right to twitter/facebook. drat kids and their Instagram

Healbot posted:Instagram is pretty cool to piss off hipster idiots. It's lacking a real purpose otherwise. I love the internet. Seriously, please give me more of this. People's identity is now so wrapped up in what piece of plastic they carry around in their pocket. Amazing. I too hate it when someone with a different brand of phone as me has the same application.

They're just phones and apps, jesus If you seriously think people feel persecuted rather than amused by iPhone users being upset about Android having instagram, you need to calibrate your models of other people. As it is, the most likely explanation is you're being willfully obtuse.

I'm just basking in the wonder glow of the internet. This is just like the SNES/Genesis days, people arbitrarily choosing sides based on what their parents happened to buy at Montgomery Wards. SNES was better, though. ExcessBLarg! posted:I have to admit though, if I had a Galaxy Note, I would be endlessly entertained by (not so) slyly showing it off.

Ha, gently caress you buddy, I'm the idiot who bought a red one. I can pass it off as an etch-a-sketch  Edit: the logo fell off mine, I wouldn't want a hole in the back of the case. cakesmith handyman fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Apr 4, 2012 |

What I meant, though, was that, unlike Apple, I'd be stunned if Dell had the pull to tell Otterbox they better make sure the logo was left visible. More likely, in both Apple and Dell's case (ha), the Otterbox guys said "hey, you know what'd look cool?". The center of the back is probably the least vulnerable place on a phone, and the curves around the logo are structurally reinforcing to the whole back of the shell. It's less likely to flex than a blank flat sheet of the same size and material.

Honestly, picplz is still a much better app than Instagram; it just sucks that it doesn't have a much larger userbase. Here's just a couple of points that makes it better to me:
The only real difference are the filters and some frames.

I get that there are objectively better camera apps out there, but after one day of using Instagram, the user base alone is enough of a reason for me to stick with it. I had no idea how many of my friends were using this, and also that there was a social networking facet to it.

AnimalChin posted:Why only a week? Did you not like it? No, I liked it, but I purchased it from Amazon along with the flip cover for about $725. I liked it a lot though. Right after I bought it though I decided instead to buy some tools, so I returned it and got a GNex for $450. I found a guy that was liquidating an entire wood shop/mechanic shop of tools, and I really wanted to buy a nice table saw and some other tools, but I couldn't justify buying myself $700 worth of phone, and then another $500 in tools.

I've been using Google Listen as my podcast app but have had some problems with playback randomly stopping. I'm looking for a new app for podcasts now. Doggcatcher appears to be the favorite, but do downloaded podcasts show up in Play Music? That's something that bothered Mr about other podcast apps I tried out.

From when podcast apps were discussed a few days ago, I think Pocket Casts was the favorite. It has an "add to playlist" option that I haven't played with that may do what you want.

I can confirm that podcasts downloaded with pocketcast don't show up in the normal music players. I use the playlist feature a lot, and it is my favorite feature.

I'm not sure, they seem to be stored on my SD card as mp3s, with number strings a names. They do not show up in any of the music apps I have installed. N7 player, play, double twist. Magic? Maybe I didn't understand the question?

Ooh, I was referring to the built in playlist feature of the pocket cast app. It allows you to set the order of downloaded podcasts so that once one ends another will start. I love the feature, because it means I don't need to touch the phone while driving to select a new episode. I think I mucked this up. The original poster was concerned that downloaded podcasts would show up in other apps. I confirmed that this was not true, but then proceeded to talk about a feature that he didn't ask about.

I use Doggcatcher along with Poweramp, podcasts are not picked up in Poweramp because I don't have it search those folders. I was using Pocket Casts since it was a Amazon AOTD, after it started acting up I ended up buying DC from recommendations in the previous thread, for some reason it has fallen out of favor, I feel like I'm all alone :-( DC can be a bit complicated with all of it's options but it's never gave me any problems.

I always thought BeyondPod was the preferred podcast app. It certainly fits my needs. I used to use Doggcatcher and podcasts definitely showed up in other apps, thought there might be a toggle to stop this.

This might not be the right thread for this, but I am looking for an app. The may only works with rooted devices I'm sure. I want an app that will let me increase the volume output of my headphone plugin past what it is capable of doing. Edit: \/ \/ \/ Do you know of any other apps that can do this, but don't have features locked away behind the screen of a pro version?
