[Galaxy Tab Accessories] dugg67:
Got mine today. No belt clip here either. It fits very snug with the Zaggskin still in place. I did have to remove the edge pieces of the skin though. I left the back skin in place as well as the Invisibleshield. I did remove the clear screen cover that came with the Otterbox. Although the Otterbox does add a little bulk, it's not a hindrance at all. Adds a great feel to it actually. The grip is much better and it feels much more secure and durable.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] brendand:
Just received my my otterbox defender. Ordered it from the US. Their online site wouldn't accept my credit card, so had to phone them. Apparently there system has a problems with overseas credit cards.

It definitely does double the weight and thickness of the tab, but it more than double's my confidence in it being protected when I take it backpacking.

Is there a trick to getting the kick stand to pop up. I've pulled pretty hard on it, but don't want to break it. Is there a release or something I need to do?
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] dugg67:
You have to pull on it pretty good. It snaps in place really tight. Actually, the first time I unsnapped the stand, I thought that I had broken it. It gets a little easier with practice, but still snaps in place really secure.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] brendand:
Thanks, I had to pry it up using a couple of forks. I might get some sand paper out and make those bumps that hold it in place a bit smaller.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] silvatyrant:
You guys have sold me on this case!

I'm in SA so I'll try and source it somewhere here. And if I can't, will have to get it from Amazon...I see it's cheaper there than on Otterbox's site.

$70 vs. $35 :confused:

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
Otterbox Defender $31.98 shipped on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280632272288

Only 4 left.

EDIT: DON'T PURCHASE ONE OF THESE! I just got mine, and there's no screen protector on the case. Look like Otterbox factory seconds. Jerks.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] kwinders:
I looked at a new one in my local Verizon store and it too did not have a screen protector, they said on this model it does not have it.

I felt it was too big and bulky for my liking.

I opted for the Verizon branded leather portfolio, I like it a lot.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] biohaz55:
I've been using mine for a couple of weeks now and like it. It offers great protection although it does add a lot to the size. I feel comfortable throwing it into a bag with loads of other objects and not worrying about the Tab.

Purchased mine in the UK for £37.49 (http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/otterbox-for-samsung-galaxy-tab-defender-series-p27791.htm) and am happy with the price considering what I paid for my Tab.

I you don't mind the bulk then go for it.... I feel I could throw my Tab around the room and it wouldn't suffer!

Oh...... it does have the screen protector built in so anyone that says this model does not have screen protection is trying to sell you something that's more than a bit dodgy!
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Oditius:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140580887636&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

I bought this off eBay in case anyone is still interested. This thing really adds the weight and bulk of the GT. It also has the screen protector.

Pros:

Really seems strong and will protect the tab really well

Has a stand that attaches to the back, or front if you are in the habit

of tossing in a glovebox or large purse.

Screen protector fits tight and feels strong.

Cons:

Case is heavy and bulky

Screen looses a little sensitivity on swipes, but hopefully the mind

will compensate for it.

The stand is hard to open.

Hope this helps, ask more questions and I will try to answer them.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pReXx:
Hey there,

yesterday i was searching around the web cause of my battery drain (my hd2 was empty in <1 day).

Then i found an market app: Battery FU

What does it do? It simply disables mobile data connection, when the hd2 is in standby. after wake up the phone, the network is connecting.

now i lost 4-5% of my battery in ~4h in normal use.

Thats great! :D

Give it a try and post your experience.

(And sorry, if this is already posted)

lg,

Prexx
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
Though it does save some battery...but I found it causes more data drops...maybe it'll work for you though..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Patchank:
so no background sync ? quite useless for a smartphone :-/
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nzxtneo:
It's called manual update. I actually prefer to sync apps myself, then to have them doing it themselves all the time. So to each, his own...

Thanks for the tip, Prexx.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pReXx:
+1, Agree.

Why should my HD2 update the latests news all the time, when i just look every 1-2h on it? Makes no sense for me. :)

When i want to read them, i open the facebook-app or whatever, update the news and read them.

No problem.

Little update:

8,5h without charging: 80% battery (normal use).

lg,

Prexx
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MarlinFF:
Manual sync is fine for news, facebook, etc but for emails/Google Voice you want push notifications.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
Definitely +1 for that. I rely on my emails too much to have to manually update them every 15 mins, but it does sound like for some it could be really good.
[G2 and Desire Z General] timsterzzz:
this morning Tmobile put the G2 on for $0.00 for add a line. Best Buy had the same deal, but required you to be a new customer. I grabbed one up right way!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] clintz:
Only if you have a family plan though, My "loyalty unlimited" plan isn't a family plan so I can't just add a line... jerks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] swags:
The site won't let you change to a family plan? That's what happens for me.

This is very tempting to bring by fiancee onto my plan and get her a G2. Unfortunately it looks like porting her number is not possible. I don't think she'd be too happy if I told her she had to change her number. :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] timsterzzz:
I bricked my Vibrant last week. I will just be happy to have a phone again. The G2 should beat my replacement Vibrant here. Right now I have a $19 Nokia phone, which has features like, the ability to make a call. thats it
[G2 and Desire Z General] Gwanatu:
Holy crap that's a sick deal!
[G2 and Desire Z General] swags:
FYI, the G2 isn't the only phone you can get free with this offer. I see quite a few that come up with the additional discount. Oddly, the G2 (and others) show as free even if I don't select a family plan but instead just add a line with a contract plan.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
Nothing is free! Look how much more the plans cost when your on contract! For me it was almost $40 a month more! Doesnt take long for them to pay off that phone.....
[G2 and Desire Z General] shinimario:
add a line to existing family plan...

$5 for line

$10 400mb data plan

$30 activation fee

$200 etf

total $245~$300

worth it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] shabbypenguin:
im thinking about switching from sprint and my epic to the g2.. just rather curious about some things on tmobile
[G2 and Desire Z General] shawnlal93:
Just extended two lines on my contract for free, got 2 T-Mobile G2s BOGO. At first the rep was reluctant, but she finally offered. I am so happy, giving this iPhone 4 to my brother, screw AT&T I'm back to T-Mobile!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sk17z0:
I have the same plan and Im able to add two lines to my account. Tmobile always has the best deals for new customers. Thats why Im glad I got my G2 for $48.99 with a FREE $100 gift card from Wal Mart before Thanksgiving.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaolin95:
This computer was working fine before but now when I start to transfer some folders with many files...it does some and then just stalls there forever.

My Windows 7 64 bit and laptop 7 (32bit) both work fine, just this one stopped working suddenly.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kletiz:
Have you tried a different usb port? Does it do it with any other external storage devices? Is there anything in the event logs?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mingkee:
Does anybody use these applications?

I ordered MT4 and I plan to install these:

no lock can wake up the phone by pressing ANY hard button

nexus one flashlight can use the phone's light.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] pack:
the phone comes stock with htc's flashlight that give you 3 modes of brightness, blinking and sos... also you can change the buttons in the key layout to wake without an app theres more on that here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=836702
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] aznpr1de808:
he is correct and i was using no lock but be very careful because the genius button can place calls on its own if you have no lock enabled that gets kinda funny when you "butt dial" friends lol and i find the stock HTC flashlight app to work flawlessly already so no need for 3rd party apps.
[Android Apps and Games] cingall:
Would like the ability to "mark as read" by long pressing a group/entry. Other than that it looks nice, good work so far :D
[Android Apps and Games] LudoGris:
Widget would be great too. I have been looking for a good google reader widget for a long time.

Sent from my iPhone 6
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
I'm planning to implement such feature. (Also, give a possibility to mark as read "on server". sometimes is usefull, I think)

So, I think it will be available in the mid of the next week if you are interested.

Now for me the first priority is auto sync and sync of pictures, but after that I'll surely implement a widget (but, maybe in pro version).

What do you like to include in such widget? A list of articles (for selected feed, category) or texts?

Thank you both for the feedback!
[Android Apps and Games] teorouge:
I am interested! Gonna try ASAP! ;)
[Android Apps and Games] gp4004:
Thank you for your job, it's a great lightweight app!

I use it as my everyday reader for 1 week, so far so good.

I'll wait for the auto sync but actually I don't really need it!

Thank you very much
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Thank you very much for your response.

I'll try to make it even better!

Here is the new version with auto sync!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
1.0.beta3 was not very stable.

So, check out quick fix!

1.0.rc1 is much more stable now.

Also, you can just download JustReader from Android Market!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody!

I've just implemented downloading of the images (view images offline). Do you want to try it?

If so, check out this version!

It's not very stable, but you can try and write here what you think.

It can be switched on in account preferences screen.

Next things I would like to implement are:

- possibility to stop synchronization process

- show synchronization status in notification bar
[Android Apps and Games] gp4004:
hello!

I use this new release for 3 days and everything works like a charm on my hero!

once again, thank you for this app, better thn newsrob
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
new version for testing

Thank you for testing pre market releases! ;)

This is new version with

- sync status in notification bar

- some improvements in sync process (speed, stability)

- possibility to stop sync process

Check it out!

Also, I'm planning to release paid market version and to cut a little bit free version, also I'll try to add advertisment on the main acitivity of the application.

Everyone here, If you want, you can send me emails or private messages and I'll send you unlock code.

So, come back here when pro version is out. First 100 will get unlock code.

Also, a big job must be done to make the release really stable.

Thank you all again!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
What about Google Reader by Google?

What do you think about new Google Reader for Android released by Google?

Do you think they will implement full offline support?

Do you like this new app? Why?
[Android Apps and Games] E_man5112:
Just downloaded market version, and a few quick thoughts (I'll have more later)

Sync settings:

Maximal age of the post should be Maximum

you list a bunch of numbers in that catergory. I'm assuming they are days, but weeks would also be a possibility. If you could put 1 (unit), 2 (unit), that'd be great.

Main feed page:

I use folders a LOT in google reader. Usually, I browse by the whole folder at once, rather than the individual source (example, I might have android police, Android Central, and XDA portal for android all in one folder). However, in this app, I can only view by individual feed. If you can place an option under the folder menu to view all at once, that'd be great! By this I mean, I might be viewing an Android central story, but the next story might be XDA portal.

Edit: Just found if you tap the numbers it does this. If you can make that a menu option, that'd be great. I only found it by accident.

Overall:

You have a setting for article screen theme. Any way you can make that universal throughout the app? I like black text on white. However, everything but the article is still white text on black.

Make it so that articles that are read in app are read everywhere.

That's all for now. Looks really good so far. Love the swipe to go to next page option. Google official reader needed that. For what I think of googles reader app, I really like it. Nice UI, but no offline caching.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi!

Thank you very much for some suggestions!

What do you mean by phrase on top of this post?

Statuses are saved to Google servers each time you synchronize account.

You mean "instantly"? Right when you are reading?
[Android Apps and Games] K900:
+1. Also, PM
[Android Apps and Games] LudoGris:
I think a widget would be a great idea. I see you are planning to add it in the future and you were asking what to be included. I think the best way to do the widget would be to display "all items" that would link to your app when clicked. I also would like to see a mark all as read on the widget too if that can be done.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
I'll implement widget for sure, but a little bit later. Now the main priority is stability.

Now, you can try one more beta version:

better offline support

bugfixes

some synchronization performance improvements
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
1.0 version is out

Hi!

version 1.0 is on the market now.

you can update right from the market or from the top post.

And, there is a present for you.

PM or email me and I'll send you key app for removing ads in JustReader (I need your Google Reader account name for this)

Next things I would like to do: to implement better and more intuitive interface and to listen for your suggestions!

Thank you

Sorry for quoting myself but still trying to get this sorted. I don't use any auto sync, only the sync at start up option. When I mark items read, they do not show up as read in Google Reader on the Web. Any suggestions?

Scrollable widget still doesn't work... tried all four launchers I have with no avail
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:
Thanks for the update! All good now! :)
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
scottjb, do you have adb installed and can you get log from "adb logcat" and send it to me? (not now, just want to know if it's possible)

I can check some settings, add some logging and will upload new version (with more detailed log)

Suprah, right now don't know what this is. I'll think about this.

h46it, nice signature :)
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:
No problems! :)
[Android Apps and Games] sunwee:
i subscribe to Gizmodo rss through Google reader.

but everytime after clicking to go to the Gizmodo website, the "back" button acts funny. it will reload the article page, sometimes i need to press the back key very fast a few times before i goes back to Justreader's list.

any fix for this?

edit: so far no such problem for the other rss i subscribe to.
[Android Apps and Games] ben.cordy:
Any chance of the tablet view being enabled for 2.2 users? I know other apps such as evernote have a tablet view with is enabled depending on the screen size not the os version. Being a 2.2 tablet user I'd really like to see this feature.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
sunwee, I'll check it out. also, changed that back button slightly. It should go back ok for now (in the new beta)

ben.cordy, tablet view is possible, of course. But I need to make some changes to the UI. Honeycomb has ActionBar which others do not. That's why it's not so easy. I should adopt UI for this. Now have no time for this. Possibly, a little bit later.

Also, here is the new beta.

The main thing here is natural article scrolling (like in launchers)

Also, there are some bugfixes and performance optimizations.

This is an early beta. May be unstable!!! But you can always revert to older version.

Send bugs and suggestions!

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
The swipe to switch articles is the smoothest and most responsive I've seen among all Readers.

Nice work!

Just checking if you plan to add serif fonts in a future version? It would add a bit of class to this app IMHO.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
ock, tried to make it smooth )

Also, optimized other types of scroll actions. They should be much more smooth too.

Thanks for the suggestion about font. Many people ask, but I forget (

This time won't :) just put it in my ToDo list

Also, do you mean font in articles?
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Yes, a choice of a serif font for the article view would be great, as I find it easier on the eye.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ben.cordy:
Thanks for the reply! I'd really appreciate a 2.2 tablet view! If you want any testing doing get in touch!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody!

Here is the new beta.

In this version everything should work, much better than in previous beta.

Also, here are a lot of small optimizations.

Pls, try it!
[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:
Just installed and the new icon is much better, giving it a good test :D

Definitely worth every penny
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:
Hey enacu,

1.3.5 beta 2 has a bug. When i go to click a article it just take me to the first article in the thread list.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
h46it, thanks!

fixes that.
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Damn, JustReader just got smoother and more responsive! Best RSS reader for Android, by far. Only things to make it perfect are a Honeycomb-optimized widget (stacks FTW) and some stability fixes. I sometimes get a funky error when launching the app.
[Android Apps and Games] maxwintrobe:
best reader. using on asus tf. just bought pro key. thanks for great app.
[Android Apps and Games] sancho1234:
Cool!

The JustReader the very very fast GReader client for Android! Thank you! :)
[Android Apps and Games] barathn:
it Crashes immediately after opening on my transformer.. why?
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody!

Thanks for using JustReader!

Here is RC of 1.3.5

All major issues seem to be solved. (I hope so)

barathn, pls, try this version. Let me know if it doesn't work for you
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Looking good so far! Awesome to see your app featured at XDA.

Now I know how to prevent the app from not showing the article when accessing from the widget: instead of hitting the home button after reading an article, just press back until you get to the homescreen. From there, accessing another article from widget should work correctly.
[Android Apps and Games] runhopskipjump:
Is anyone else experiencing high CPU usage while justreader 1.3.5-rc1 is in the background? The battery usage was around 20%.
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:
Yeah i'm having the same problem. Battery usage is high and never stops syncing. I'm sure enacu will fix the problem shortly!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Does this only happen with the new version?

Does sync finish with timeout exception every time and keeps eating cpu? Am I right? If yes, then what phase is performing?
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:
Yes this is happening with the 1.3.5 rc1. Sync doesn't seem to never finish, well not that i know of and never downloads pictures. So it keeps syncing and eats up the battery life. For me it just stays on loading articles.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Thanks. Could you, pls, try sync without images downloading?
[Android Apps and Games] runhopskipjump:
On 1.3.5-rc1 after what seems to be a successful sync, the app continues to use a great deal of CPU. I do receive the have a cup of coffee prompt. It uses CPU while its in the background and not syncing.

If the "load starred" option is selected it just continues to sync at the syncing other statuses phase.

Edit: I no longer have high cpu usage issue while justreader is idle in the background after untoggling the "unread only" option under the offline usage section. I will try the "load starred" option with this off to see if it will work with my current settings.
[Android Apps and Games] GeitjeG:
Everytime I swipe to next article, it asks: "!Offline. Item is loaded in cache-mode. Do you wish to switch to online-mode?"

I tried to fiddle with settings, but can't get rid of the message.

The way I want it: first only feed+detailsl; after clicking link: mobilized full article.

I use black background btw.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or I'm doing something wrong...
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
I have some thoughts about high CPU usage, will fix some small things about it.

And for now do not try to "load starred". It's not performing well for some people, it's an old feature
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
What setting do you have under Reading -> "View to open..." ?

If web, then JustReader everytime tries to open web mode (not cached rss), but also you set mode to offline. So it tries to load from the web and asks you to do this.

Just set "View to open" to "Rss" back again.

Let me know if I'm not right
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
I'm glad too. Thanks, egzthunder1!

Thanks for the finding! Will try to fix this thing with widget.
[Android Apps and Games] sweetbinodray:
Good job man
[Android Apps and Games] Loftus:
Loving the new ability to swipe from article to article. My favourite reader just keeps getting better, well done!

Another feature I'd like to see is the option to update the read status after moving between each article. I often forget to sync at the end of a reading session and then read articles still show up in other devices (or the google reader web site). Kind of like a 'live' sync mode, although it should probably be limited to wifi connections so to not kill the mobile battery when on a 3g connection.
