I just checked the article again and it doesn't specify if full suite or not. Plus article won't name sources. I think it's against rules to link an article from another forum, so I didn't. I'm curious also as to how much can be expected out of it. Apple has iworks to compensate for non existing Microsoft office before. Bit Android never really had anything like iworks. Only third party apps n such. Which some work great also but hardly any that let's you do everything or at least a suite of apps from same developer to compliment each other.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Supposedly Microsoft just updated or is going to update the Mac version. I wouldn't think apple/Microsoft relationship could be better than one with Microsoft n google. Apple has been their arch nemesis for years. Apple has always cried Bill Gates stole their tech and made him the richest man in the world because of it..lol not bill fault they sold him the rights when he knew the true potential of it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skeptikal:
I use office pretty regularly and am actually considering paying 6 bucks a month for the cloud version. $72 bucks a year sounds sort of reasonable to me for an official MS Office product. Worth a trial at least.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xTRICKYxx:
For the Transformer series, an awesome word-processing application is essential. I find it hilarious that there is really no good one on Android yet.

Polaris is absolutely awful.

My money is on Google to finally update their Google Docs app to make it half-decent for tablets. But right now, it is a disgrace.

We also have LibreOffice announcing an Android version slated for 2012. Microsoft has slowly been releasing mobile versions of their software so I am sure there will be a Office 365 version out there eventually.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Bimboy:
I have used a few Android Office Suites, and my favorite is QuickOffice Pro HD, specifically designed for tablets. Allows for opening, editing and authoring Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDFs. It also supports "save as" for Office 2010, 2007, and 2003.

It was Amazon Free App of the Day a month ago, and I love it. Best thing is that it hooks to many different cloud document storage sites, like GoogleDocs and Dropbox.

http://www.quickoffice.com/quickoffice_pro_hd_android/ for screen caps. It's as close as you can get to the real MS Office for a tablet, I think.

The phone version (non-HD version) is not that great, IMO. The tablet specific one is pretty darned good.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
I'd not say there is no good one. I quite like QuickOffice.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jmt230:
I agree that there is no good office suite for Android as of yet. I prefer QuickOffice mostly because of the cloud integration, but all other features are roughly the same as other apps (I actually like the look of Polaris best, but no dropbox integration makes it worthless to me). I would be thrilled to see a full office suite from Microsoft or anyone else (hoping LibreOffice comes through!). But really, all we need is for Microsoft to open MS Live office to mobile browsers - that would be enough for me, though I would rather have an app like QuickOffice with full cloud integration and full formatting features and spell check(!). It seems silly to me that nothing like that exists. Hell, when I type posts on this forum, I get more formatting options than most, if not all, office apps and it has spell check!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Yeah, quick office HD pro is a good one. I have it on my iPad along with Office2 HD, Docs to Go premium, and Iworks Pages. Also PDF expert n PDF reader. Got several different ones just in case one does something the other doesn't do.

So for Android, as I'm hearing, quick office HD is the way to go. At least until Microsoft releases office. I mainly use these apps to make/edit my resumes in such. Some apps act funny with formatting n such. Reading and filling out pdf'sworks well with PDF expert n PDF reader.

Does Android have those others I mentioned, minus Pages? I think I've seen docs2go. I have quick office on my Atrix4g. Will definitely get the HD version for Prime once I pick it up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nukemanmd:
When I consider the numerous areas where Google is in direct competition with MS,l I would be very suprprised if MS offered any products which even remotely benefited the Android platform. Of course, once Windows 8 is released for portable devices, the odds of an Android version of Office, will probably approach zip.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] The Janitor Mop:
All I know is that the SINGLE biggest thing preventing tablets from being able to serve as an effective replacement for ultra slim laptops is the lack of word processing abilities. If tablets were able to do that, they would be able to do pretty much everything I use my laptop for. Word processing is absolutely KEY for any sort of computer device that is supposed to have practical benefit for your life. As a student, it is essentially the only thing I do on my laptop that is entirely practicality-focused rather than media focused that tablets can't do.

While I'm probably going to be getting the TF Prime, the only thing holding me back is if I really need it. If it was capable of word processing, that question would be absolutely erased from my mind. Anyone in the tablet industry needs to jump on making that happen.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hbk19:
I highly doubt Microsoft will release anything worthwhile on Android.

Personally, I'm holding out for LibreOffice, though I also have a faint hope that Google might actually develop their Gdocs app into a full office suite app, something with the same capabilities of the desktop version at least.

If none of those happen... well, here's hoping for dual-booting Android/Windows 8.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Magnesus:
LibreOffice for Android is in the works as I read somewhere. I much prefer LibreOffice to MsOffice. I also don't like much what Android has to offer, because no app saves odt files, which I prefer. Still - fully functional web Google Docs would be enough for me.

Yep. Ten apps a day for ten days at ten cents a pop.

That said, I think as of a little while ago, all the Day 1 apps were still shown on the main page of the Market, and were still $.10. I bought the Sketchbook app this morning for ten cents. So YMMV.

But yeah, a total of a hundred apps for ten dollars when all is said and done.

Disclaimer: I know there is already another thread on Mugen HD2 Extended Battery 2,600mAh, but I would like to state that this is an official review since Mugen has provided me with a review unit to debunk the many bad comments given concerning their battery quality. This you can read from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1294124.

[BACKGROUND]

I have contacted www.mugen-power-batteries.com directly after hearing many comments concerning their false claims. I was surprised that they actually responded by providing me a review unit of the 2,600mAh. It is now on the way.

My review unit will be coming in about 2 weeks time. I will try to conduct an extensive review to determine the actual worth of the battery and whether they work as advertised. I will be conducting a few tests specifically on the battery, as objectively as possible. This would cover video playing, 3G usage, full valuation of the battery charge (using battery widget pro) to name a few.

If you would like a particular test to be conducted on the battery, please state and give a few ideas below. I will be comparing them against the original 1,230mAh from HTC.

I think as faithful users of our HTC HD2, I would really want to get the best extended battery. If this provides even 90% of the advertised capacity, it is already worth the money. Anything less would be pointless.

Thank you.
[HD2 Accessories] Mister B:
Larger cell will indeed be good but 2600mAh will be higher than reality as Mugen have admitted this already in a round about way on responses to another testers results.

A new standard HTC cell & new standard size 1500mAh Mugen is the test that needs to be done.

Any chance of a sample 1500mAh review unit ?
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
I will try to get a 1,500mAh review unit after this one is done :) Oh, have Mugen admitted to that? Would be good if you can provide me with the link. Thanks!
[HD2 Accessories] houruoha:
Cant Wait for the review

Im Planning on getting one myself a 2,600mAh

BOOKMARKED

:)
[HD2 Accessories] Mister B:
This was response to Dougs battery testing.

Not in any way slating Mugen but the mAh ratings marked on their cells are higher than what would be achieved in any lab test.

1500mah is the one I would love to see tested side by side with genuine cell in device & technician mAh testing.

Mugen cells are ok quality but for the asking price we need total transparency on actual cell capacity ...
[HD2 Accessories] suomi105:
I have no idea how good that battery is, but I bought this one about 6 months ago and it's working very well, doesn't gain much heat and it doesn't discharge itself much. Average battery consumption in standby is 6mA. All I can do is recommend you guys this one. And cover is really strong. And it's "bit" cheaper than Mugens ;)

[HD2 Accessories] damnshah:
looking forward to seeing your test results...i just got me a 2400mAh battery and it lasts me about 15hours under heavy use...
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
Hi guys,

Sorry for the silence... I just received the battery today! Give me some time to get it charged and conditioned for testing :)

Let me know what else you would like me to test it with.
[HD2 Accessories] Delacor:
Display use is interesting for me, such like browsing etc.

Open a browser with some ads or something and look how long the Battery live..

My Galaxy SII gets there 4,5h.

Start the Match ;)
[HD2 Accessories] relldroid:
Idc really care about that battery. I know its fake, but is there any real battery that's better then the original stock? 1400, 1450, 1500?? Not the fat ones with the kickstand
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
Just an update, I am still conditioning the battery. The first charge/recharge was really pathetic, at 12 hours before it was flat (moderate-heavy use). The second charge/recharge is much improved, I am on 25 hours on (moderate use) with 25% left (taking pictures, listening to music, games, surfing, etc.). I will begin formal testing after 4 full runs to find the optimum condition.

One things I have to say is that the ROM does play a high factor. I was on Dorimanx 3.0 and somehow the governors for oc/uc is not working properly as I kept getting some high drainage. Once I reverted to 2.9, the drainage was gone and it seems to sip battery at a much, much lower rate.

So many factors!!!!

By the way, I really like the battery cover. It is not cheap like the other China made products (unlabelled). I have already 4 different covers, and while I would prefer a metal back cover, this is the 2nd best :)
[HD2 Accessories] Delacor:
Can You please also start the heavy display usage test?

And put some pics please ;)

Greetings
[HD2 Accessories] damnshah:
I have a few questions which i hope you dont mind answering:-

1. How did you recondition the battery?

2. Does your kernel recognise the battery's full capacity or do you do a battery pull then it jumps back up significantly? Im facing this problem at the moment...

thank you in advance!
[HD2 Accessories] putra91:
how long will the battery last for heavy use like playing 3d games?this is important as i use my phone for gaming most :cool:
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
1) I conditioning it by charging it overnight for 6-8 hours and then depleting it until it powers off (Actually, this is based on the instructions they gave in the parcel). I need to do it 5 times. Once done, I will be able to charge and stop charging when the indicator hits 100%. I basically use Battery Widget Pro (they have a feature called 'calibration'). Apparently, the battery itself states that it is 2,300mAh, but I think this is not accurate (hence the testing). You will know that the battery is fully charge when the indicator goes down to 0 (zero) mA (shows that the battery is not receiving any more charge).

2) Most cheap batteries have wrong indicators (e.g. temperature detection is not working, no indication of battery capacity). And yes, they suffer the need to 'pull the battery out first' before an additional amount is given. I bought one a while back, apparently one that has 3,000mAh. My observation is that the indicators are really gone. In fact, it will slowly go down to 50%, after which if you pull, it will give you 70%, once it goes down to 15%, it will last for a long while (30 minutes of browsing over 3G) before going down to 14%. Using that battery, I have been able to last 31 hours of moderate use (1 hour of music, 1 hour of gaming - not 3D, a few hours of browsing and a lot of photo taking). It costs only USD12 (thereabouts), which to me is the best deal yet. Down side of that battery is the very poor back battery cover. Using Battery Widget Pro (you have to charge fully and discharge until it shuts down and charge up again continuously), I got an estimated charge capacity of 1900mAh. Not bad don't you think?

The Mugen 2,600mAh easily matches my fake 3,000mAh one. The question is by how much. Sorry for the delay but my HD2 is my daily phone. So, I cant conduct full test like Engadget and other websites. But I'll do my best :)
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
Try Andida batteries. I had the 1600mAh one and it was slightly better than the original (giving me about 1300mAh). I had that a while back.
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
After much charging and recharging, I can confirm that the battery has about 2,200+mAh. See the attached images to see the estimated calculation using Battery Widget Pro.

Charging takes about 2 hours plus using the wall charger. The last 2% takes the longest.

As per request I ran 2 emulation apps (sorry, no 3d games), fpse & n64oid. The former ran Strider 2 while the latter ran Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Do note that I have overclocked my phone to 1.6ghz. All in all, it ran for 4.5 hours with 15% battery left. I'm pretty sure it could have clocked 5hours easily. I think that it is a good performance for 2.2kmAh battery don't you think? See the images below for a read of what other apps I was running. I managed to deplete the whole charge after nearly 10 hours of extremely heavy usage!

What do you guys think? Okay?
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
[Not the Mugen 2,600mAh Battery]

As an aside, I took and strip out the cheap battery which I bought for USD10, which claimed a 3000mAh, which only was about 2000mAh (+/- 200mAh) and took some photos of it. I can understand these extended batteries better. I am not an electronics person, but this would explain why it takes a restart to 'recognise' the 'remaining' battery on our devices.

Notice that they are basically two lower capacity batteries which are slapped together with the thin connectors and wrapped together with scotch tape.

I am not sure whether Mugen's the same, since it does not suffer from the 'restart-phone-to-get-additional-battery-reflected' scenario. However, I wonder whether there are any manufacturers who would just manufacture a genuine 2000mAh without merely slapping two products together (like in this picture). In light of this, it is much better to carry an external battery charger (anything more than 6,000mAh around!).

Anyone with electronic expertise want to comment on the pictures, please do.
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
Opps, forgot to add the photos of the battery and the battery cover which I mentioned. I find that after the first fall (yes, I tend to have accidents with my HD2 :( ... ) there is a slight creeking sound with the battery cover (nothing is chipped though). It is a rubberised battery cover, unlike the original metal cover. Still, the feel of the cover is great to the touch.
[HD2 Accessories] erlern:
I am no longer using this device, but my dad is! It still works and have survived loads of damage... mostly dropping the device with the battery cover! :eek:

Hi all. I would like to know if it is possible to have a blackberry style on my OB. Like launchers, etc... I search in internet but the only thing I manage to find is ADW launcher + its Blackberry theme.

Thanks. ^^
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
LOL buy an Android to have Blackberry UI. Craziest thing I heard this month :p

Blackberry system isn't a loved system/UI, so I don't really think there is much more than the ADW theme. A BB launcher, sure nobody made it. But you can start getting the icons (if you can find them in good resolution :S ) and start with an icon pack.

Also you can mod the status bar to look like BB.

LOL sobralobo! I just realized this is you when I looked up to read again the post! What are you doing?! Hahaha

Ahah antonio, it's just because I love changing the style of my phone. Sometimes I want android UI, then Iphone UI, WP7 UI and know I would like the blackberry one. I like it too. :) Too bad that there is nothing more than ADW.

Well now I had to stop trying some development and modding because I'll have exams next week and you ? :)
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
+1 why would you want your android to look like a blackberry? Into the same vein Antonio, didn't you make the wp7 theme? Why would anyone want their black to look like a windoze phone? :)
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Hahaha you didn't get me! I wasn't saying "why would you want Android look like *** not Android?", but specifically Blackberry, which isn't precisally famous for its beauty nor its performance (okay, Blackberries have a keyboard and are useful for businessman blabla).

WP7 and its Metro style have been recognized as pretty, and I'm not the only crazy who said "oh, it's nice", so I'm not alone :p

I'm not of those who are Android 100% defenders and it must look like Android. You all know that. I was just messing with Blackberry (which I hate), making my point and also messing with Sobralobo a little bit :p

:)
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
Fair enough, and I'm always looking for themes, but ones that DON'T look like anything else. And as much as you may hate blackberry, I DESPISE everything Microsoft, so from the moment I saw your theme I couldn't understand why anyone would want to make an android look like Microsoft (though I must admit it looks pretty cool) I feel the same about iPhones, if you want your LG or Samsung to look like an iPhone, just spend the extra $200 and buy one! :)
