I'm very shocked when I read Official Google Blog this morning, as a part of sprint cleaning, they will close Google Reader service onJuly 1, 2013 :confused::confused: :

"We launched Google Reader in 2005 in an effort to make it easy for people to discover and keep tabs on their favorite websites. While the product has a loyal following, over the years usage has declined. So, on July 1, 2013, we will retire Google Reader. Users and developers interested in RSS alternatives can export their data, including their subscriptions, with Google Takeout over the course of the next four months."

http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2013...eed:+blogspot/MKuf+(Official+Google+Blog)&m=1

I use Google Reader all the time, in my NS, laptop and even in my PC at office...

I already try some alternatives for news reader, but still not as good as Google Reader.

I just want to know, what is the best alternative Google Reader for you?

Please share your thought..
[General Topics] willywill:
I will continue to use it too the last day and hope Google Reader won't go nowhere, right now most of the top RSS sites are down due to heavy traffic, but anyway there Newsblu, Feedly both with a web and Android app and there The old Reader, the one i got my eyes on, right now they don't have a Android app but by July they should have a app in the Play Store. Here the link http://theoldreader.com/
[General Topics] Zahih:
Hi..

I have try Newsblur and feedly before, but I still not comfort with both rss readers.

About The Old Reader, it's a good one, but like my post before, I like a lot to read news using rss, even in my phone, so rss news that can sync between my phone, laptop and PC (web) is a must... :D

Thanks anyway for your suggestion...
[General Topics] d3l1:
I was shocked, too, when I read the news this morning. I've been using Google Reader forever on a daily basis and I never tried any other reader.

So atm I'm kinda stuck here. Of course I'll use Google Reader till the last day but then I have to find an alternative. I'll look into Feedly and The Old Reader, but I'm always open to other alternatives.
[General Topics] slannmage:
Is it bad to say I've never heard of it? I've used Google since it came out and killed other Search Engines I was using at the time like Yahoo and Altavista was it? I had an Android phone for a year but never saw it on there either.
[General Topics] Zahih:
Yes of course, I also will use Google Reader till the last day...

Google Reader is the best News RSS Reader that can sync between device, I just can't understand, why Google kill this great service.

Would really appreciate some ideas on replacements.

As of now, im using google reader on my PC's (windows) and Newsrob on my android.

What replacements are there for google reader on windows, that also has an android app so i can sync them?

I've tried feedly, but i desperately need offline-mode-reading on my phone, as i usually travel underground with no connection.

Is there any other android app that can sync with feedly? Or am i forced to use their official one?
[General Topics] Hr Kristian:
I'm guessing the service will be picked up in another format and be somehow linked to your Google account for improved synchronization. RSS feeds are out of Google's control, and from an ease of use point of view (or crazy Google wants to own your life conspiracy POV) that might make sense...

Play Books comes to mind

Hello

It was a known fact that Allshare dongle couldn't be used with Custom Roms but the brilliant developer "scrosler" - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2075795 made it possible however his fix is subjected to AT & T Roms, Now there isn't much difference between the Canadian Rogers ( i317m ) and US At & T ( i317 ) but his fix still doesn't work for the Rogers Roms ( at-least for me )

I tried the following

tried to ODIN stock AT&T and it fails

I then tried Stock Rogers i317m ROM, then Flashed AT&T Stock of here - http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2160705

I then flashed Clean Rom ( scorslers )

I then Flashed Stock Att Kernel

I then flashed the img file and ran triangle away

Reconnected Dongle, but still no luck

Now his fix entails flashing img file so my query is

1) Has anyone managed to get it work on Rogers Rom

2) Can some smart developer make the same fix for Canadian Rogers rom

Every time I take a screen shot and send it as a mms the other person gets a blurry picture

I've tried several apps along with the 2 button method but nothing works
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] razorloves:
It's not your ss res, it's the set mms max size limit.

Touchwiz and CM10.1 on this phone have it set very low compared to other vzw phones i've used.

300kb max size. 480x640 max resolution.

I don't know why nobody has added an mms overlay to cm10.1 to fix this. I just got this phone the other day, so i'm just now learning the ins and outs. This mms limit annoyed me really bad though, lol. It actually forced me to root my new phone sooner than i had planned so that i could replace the mms apk with one i modified. ha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ManLaw:
My phones already rooted, how do I change the resolution
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] razorloves:
Depends which rom you use. If on a touchwiz rom, decompile the SecMms.apk and edit the size limit values in the /res/xml/mms_config.xml file. If on an aosp rom, then do the same thing to the Mms.apk. I'm sure there are some already modded floating around on here somewhere. If not let me know and i'll throw mine in a zip for ya.

Here's a link on how to do it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrackerTeg:
Interesting.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aybarrap1:
Yep...a quick search now lands the same info over and over. It also lands a lot of speculation in which direction google is heading.

Just to clarify, I will state that I am not necessarily against ads as it helps independent developers. If I like the app enough i will support the developer if they will allow for a purchase that is ad free. I have purchased around 20 or so apps (some I no longer use) so I have no qualms doing this. However, I have experienced some apps in which the ads are overly instrusive and actually hinder some of the functions of the app temporarily due to being in the way. These "few" are the reason I have resorted to ad blockers.

For now I have installed F-Droid and I am using AdAway and I like it a lot. I am now content.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nursemm05:
I've been using AdAway too but the last app update (March 7th I believe) actually allows ads. Are you having this problem as well?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aybarrap1:
I have had no such issue. Still blocking ads. In fact AdAway is working even better than AdFree Android did. There were a couple of apps that I still got ads in before and now they are even ad free.

Are ads coming through all of your apps that support ads, or just some of them? If all ad supported software is showing ads then you need to update your hosts file via AdAway.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nursemm05:
I updated the hosts file beginning of March and then started getting ads. Before that I was getting none. Today they updated the hosts files again and ads are once again gone. :) yay!

ok i have a samsung galaxy stellar / sch-1200 from verizon, cant find a forum on it so i figured this would be closest hopefully.....

it reads internal storage as "sdcard01" and i also have an 8gb external sd card. the phone itself does not have an option to move app 2 sd card in the application manager.

ive tried app's via the playstore and still no avail. app2sd and others..

my question is.. is there an option somewhere in the phone that i cannot seem to find or a way to get it to default save items/pics/mp3s/ect to the actual sd card??

ive looked all over to try to find out some similar problems and cant seem to find any info besides actually swapping the external to internal and vice versa using ADB.... i do not have this phone rooted and wont until warranty is up. if anyone could point me in the right direction or inform me on how to change the storage settings id really appreciate it.

thanks in advance.

no not yet.. i will be rooting it in the next couple months but as of right now its not unforunately. its like the phone doesnt even recognize the sd card it in even though it is mounted and reads pictures and music that i manually put on there. but the application manager doesnt even have an option to "move to sd"
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Cooptx:
I don't know. Maybe it is mounting as read only. That is what happens on the xoom
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jhargis720:
shouldnt be.. i can move individual files that i have downloaded, its the weirdest things ive ever came across..

my og droid was rooted and my htc inspire, they both even before rooting had the option to move apps to the sd card. the phone has 2gbs of internal space so its not like its worse than the previous just blows my mind and i have no idea how i could maybe change it to having the external card being the primary storage. under Astro it says there are 2 sd cards... i know its thinking that the internal storage is the first/primary card. just dunno how to get it to switch over i guess..

thats the best way i can think to describe the situation..
