How I rooted my Motorola Atrix Part 3
The second time I rooted a Motorola Atrix, I used this method. It worked, and wasn't hard, but it wasn't as easy as the first time, when I was sitting on Froyo. So Last week when my Atrix crashed and burned, I quickly did an Internet search and stumbled across this one click method. I would highly recommend that if you are sitting on Gingerbread 2.3.4, and a Motorola device, that you give this method a try! Honestly, from the time I took my new Atrix out of the mailbox, to remove the battery, Sim card, and micro-SD, boot and root, took every bit of 20 minutes!
Streamzoo is a great photo sharing app
I was over on Google Plus venting somewhat about how Instagram wasn't available for the Android Platform. A fellow by the name of Manish Vaidya commented that there was an app called Streamzoo and I wouldn't miss Instagram. Manish happens to be the founder of Streamzoo and so far Manish has been very right! This is just an awesome app for photosharing. It might not have the Instagram popularity, but it offers very similar filters and borders as well as the tweaks to brightness, hue, contrast, etc. But it goes beyond Instagram in that it's available on the iOS AND Android Platforms as well as being available in a web app. Also, they encourage the use of hashtags so that uses can follow streams of popular picture topics.
All the Android Apps on my Iconia
Just like on my Atrix, I have a whole lot of Apps from the Amazon Market. The price is right and it's easy. Very few I actually paid for, all though there are a few here and there that I certainly deemed worthy. Although this may like many, my Iconia doesn't come close to the apps on my Atrix.
All the Android Apps on my Atrix
I confess! I have a whole lot of trash on my Atrix. I"m going to blame Amazon! That free app every day keeps me adding stuff . . many, I've never opened. But I'm thinking, "Hey, it's a free paid app and if I don't get it, I'll regret it. So I keep adding them . . . Very few I have deleted . . It might be time to clean house! My Top 5 Android Tablet Apps
Several times, I have documented my favorite Android apps. But as my Android devices have expanded, I noticed that my favorite Apps on my smartphone weren't necessarily my favorite apps on my tablet. So as of today I'm documenting my favorite apps for my Tablet, which happens to be an Acer Iconia A100 7" tablet running Honeycomb 3.2. My rules . . . These are apps I use daily. There are several awesome apps out there, but for it to appear on my list, frequency of use plays a very important role in what makes this list. Let's do this:
