[General Questions and Answers] movalpolos:
I watched, and didn't see anything that isn't available on Android either by default or with an app. Different keyboards, themes, panoramic camera, etc. are all available on Android without jailbreaking and using an alternative market.

Personally, I switched to my Galaxy Nexus in December after four years of using an iPhone and never looked back. The only thing I miss is FaceTime, and there are alternatives for that anyway. If you have any desire at all to change things on your phone, Android is the way to go.
[General Questions and Answers] DeeMat11:
It depends

You asked if you can "do more" on one rather than the other. The answer is not simple, but it comes down to a matter of preference. My preference is Android - it gives me the freedom I want over my device.

[General Questions and Answers] developress:
Android Its ....

Android, its open source.. so many developers can build many application tha fit my need.. because its open, the price relativelly cheaper than iphone...

Iphone, it seted up in my mind, that device hardlly exclusive, with all aplication exclusive only for iphone user.. not open.. and more expensive..

i prefer android device.. i paid cheaper for most app on google play.. custom rom, custom kernel.. even though i only consume it..
[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
There's no correct answer to this question. It's like asking, "Which is better... a sports car or a speed boat?" They're both great, but are you on a road or a lake?

The real question is which one suits you best and no-one can answer that but yourself.

Can I do more stuff on Android or iPhone?

My phone, SGS2.

Here it is: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1532368

Virtually everything new, weekly if not daily.

My g/f phone, iPhone 3GS.

2 years ago, it was iOS, 1 year ago, it was still iOS with same GUI, now, it is still iOS with again, same interface; a year from now, it will be still iOS with the same freaking interface.

Now, telling me, which one you can do MORE

---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

Oh, btw, if you want to have iPhone-alike GUI on Android, get MIUI ROM.

Keep using it and just change it whenever Apple release a rev-up iOS, still more amazing
[General Questions and Answers] apollooff320:
I don't know what is wrong with both android and ios fanboys they all like to spread bull crap about each others devices and give out misinformation. My JB iphone does everything my rooted android phone does. There are tons tons of apps in the cydia store that helps customize your home screen and do all kinds of stuff. What it really comes down to is app qaulity, because you can only do customization so long. Android is badly beat when it comes to amount of apps and the quality of them and that's for both official and non official (cydia apps) apps. I tell you both android and ios fanboys disgust me with the garbage they sprew about each others platform. Its great being part of both worlds and knowing the truth.
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
If jb iphone can do everything rooted android can where is ios version of app like tasker?

There is none, check any iphone forum and ask if you think I'm mistaken. Its not possible even on a jb iphone because of how ios works.

Again what about capturing your phones activities on video like screencast? Not possible even on jb so no its not being a fanboy to say jb iphone can do all an android can because thanks to ios limitations it really can't.

Dave

[General Questions and Answers] rarsenaux:
You will find the opinions in this discussion biased more than likely. For me, I pick up an iPhone and say, "where's the other buttons?" The sheer price difference and available android phones makes for an easier decision. for under $100, you can pick up a nice low to mid android (even with prepaid providers), get rooted, and have a great customizable phone for as little as $50 a month (again with prepaid providers).
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
Veency is a remote control app and nothing like screencaster nor are any other apps I looked into. It uses a pc to capture screen of iphone whereas screencast does so with no need for a seperate device such as a pc and is totally different.

Tasker lets you do full automation of your device and is impossible on ios hence why on various forums ios users of jb iphones ask if ios will ever have an equivalent.

So it is still correct jb iphone cannot do all rooted android does.

[General Questions and Answers] AMP_chen:
ive been wanting to have an iphone eversince it came out.. but because of the price range in my country i dont think its worth the buy for a phone that is running with the same IOS over and over and over again. Ive been using android phones for 2 yrs now and im so loving it... i had 2 android phones already and planning to stick on my new toy for now. hubby bought an iphone 4s and is now planning on buying an android phone, maybe because i always show him what i can do on my phone everyday, its like a new phone everyday.. while his 4s is still IOS 5, though he bought me an ipad 2 just because we can do face time when he's out of town for work...

phones differ with the person who wants it and wants to do with it. for me i love customizing, i like the 3d view on my home screen which i cant get on a "stock" iphone while i can do on my unrooted HTC phone :) .... so as they have said there is no good and bad phone... its the user who defines their phone...

as for me my HTC sensation XE is better than any phone (this is my definition of my phone). so if your iphone is better then its fine... its just that, iphone, itouch and ipad has no difference at all..same home screen same ios same buttons same apps and yes apps are expensive...

i had some apps installed on my ipad, bought it for 1,500 philippine peso so its really expensive you see... :)

if ill be buying an apple it would be only ipod itouch not the iphone 4s or the 5 or the 6th . the only apple gadget that i have which i love most is my ipod classic 120gb. planning on selling the ipad 2 already for the itouch :)

so its up to you, for me android has this freedom on every apps :)

[Android Software Development] mrfenyx:
Just a quick reminder, since it is not clearly specified in the first post:

This tool is illegal and goes against the ToS of the Android Market / Play Store:

3.3 You agree not to access (or attempt to access) Google Play by any means other than through the interface that is provided by Google, unless you have been specifically allowed to do so in a separate agreement with Google. You specifically agree not to access (or attempt to access) Google Play through any automated means (including use of scripts, crawlers, or similar technologies) and shall ensure that you comply with the instructions set out in any robots.txt file present on the Google Play website.

Having said that, this is a really sweet tool and helpful too. Have fun using it and take care ;)
[Android Software Development] ChitownWingMan:
Download Paid Apps

Google Play currently has a bug in it which prohibits some users from installing apps they have paid for (listed as purchased in the Google Play App).

They are "working" on it but it is very frustrating when I cannot download apps that I have purchased.

This application would be extremely useful if it allowed downloading of apps that I have purchased.

Thank you.../

I think you misunderstood the question.

DeviceID is not solve the problem it just give you your andorid phone device ID.

If you want to download apps that not avaliable to your phone you need to modify the build.prop file.

- Your proxy setup in Control Panel -> Internet Option -> Connection -> LAN Settings

- Your Java proxy setting in Control Panel -> Java

- Try turn off firewall or antivirus

wtf ! u r afraid of installin softwares in laptop but keen to modify ur android??

ha ha .. anyway no offence..

nothing would happen to ur laptop. still if u feelin afraid , make a restore point. do ur work. if anything goes wrong, go to safe mode & restore from ur last created restore point..

u can do the same thing as i said above before do any work u feel risky. :)

still again , adhoc would not do anything harm to ur mom's laptop.

cheers.. :D

My device don't have Vista and didin't had lot's of BSOD. I'm not afraid, I just don't want to fill my mom's notebook with Android things, I have a 1 TB HD that have lot of things...

It's a good notebook (again, it's not mine, it's from my mom). Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM. But it was bought almost 4 years ago.

I won't bother with it, anyway. I just wanted someway to download some apps that Market says it's imcompatible to test if it really don't work or some work, and it still says...
[Android Software Development] i_rnb:
nope that wont work.. it s got ur device ID ! so it wld only allow those apps which r compatible with the device last logged in with that device ID .. :)

1) Google play wants a google play account and the android id of the last device that used that google play account, not any device id, right?

2) So a google play account + a android id not associated to that google account, will not work?

3) Is there some way to generate Android IDs based on imei?

The device of the google play account i am using is sold.

I still have the google play account, but obviously i can not check the android id of that device. I only have the imei of that device.

4) Is there a way to recover a android id from the google account dashboard?

Cool app... it is google play jailbreaking ;)
[Android Software Development] i_rnb:
umm , srry for misunderstanding , any deviceID wld work may b , but whose gonna give it to sumone unknown like u..

edit: well may b not , coz recall the moment , U HAV TO ACCECT LEGALS WHILE SIGNING IN A MARKET THROUGH A DEVICE !! that option isnt there.. i think , u hav atleast once to sign in to market with that device to accpt that legal.

So if I want to use this app, I guess I should create a new Gmail account and then associate that email with my phone, correct?

Because this program could easily send peoples main email and password to the programmer since it's not like your information is secured from third party developers with the Google API. Or am I missing something?
[Android Software Development] bibovodanh:
I'm the one that made this tool. And if i tell you i'm not trying to transfer your information to anywhere, you believe or not? Of course you can't complete believe in someone you have never known.
