Google Mars for Xoom - Xoom Themes and Apps

Is this PC application open sourced? I tried accessing this from the browser and it doesn't work well. I tried stock and dolphin. I would love to have this app. I use Google Earth a lot and would like to look at Mars when I'm bored because I'm cool like that. Any help would be appreciated.

"Cause I'm cool like that." lol!
-So am I, that's why I looked here.
Here or on another forum is a thread asking the same, and I don't believe it's open source.
It would be my guess that Google would be working on that for Android.
"Android vs Apple; The race to Mars!"

I hope they are working on that. Its cool the amount of cool things you can find on Google Earth.

Google Earth is the best app ever.

i like google body

Yeah but the app is kind of dry until they update it. I wish I could click on a body part and learn more about it or maybe dissect it. It's the start of a good thing though.

Anyone porting Facebook/Myspace poker from I phone/pod

Any one know how this can be done? or if it can be dome?
If there's is enough people interested then we should go over to the dev section in general more people will experience hang out there that understand how too go about this. so keep posting +1's if you want this.
I don't think that anyone is doing it. There was one port, but it wasn't that great.
With the Facebook Developer platform, this is completely possible. The Facebook iPhone app is powered by the Developer platform!
i personally would LOVE to see facebook poker on my tilt....like you(and when i say you i dont really know who im refering to but anything beside "you" sounded weird) have no idea...
ok guys i just had a look at facebook developer stuff and its well too deep for me to swim. just a little fish is me. who do we think would know this stuff and ask them nicely?
I'd like to see this on my Tilt too....
Bring it to the tytn ii!!!
Lets go!!! I'm tired of trying to find a facebook poker app from google! Why should the lesser iPhone have a better app than us?
I would love to see this too i'm forever on it!
You can play it using skyfire browser ok but a stand alone app of sorts would rock!
You've got my vote
although i want the facebook texas holdem app, i'm afraid i'd become completely useless at work. but then again...
+1

Curious, where can that old thingy be found? And what exactly is requested? Doesnt the poker app work through opera? I looked up the " Facebook Developer Toolkit", not exactly impressive stuff.

Want Words With Friends on Android? Try WordFeud!

I just saw this game on another site and decided to give it a try since it's free. I've been want Words With Friends or a decent clone for awhile. Wordwise Pro just doesn't fit the bill. So far WordFeud is great given it's really new.
http://wordfeud.com/
PS: I'm not getting paid to promote this. It's just really fun and I'd though I'd share.
Add me if you want to play. My ID is Snapshotx
Awesome! I have been looking for something like this. Thanks so much. Just started playing you, username is Foobu.
Thanks for the recommendation! I have been missing "Words with Friends"
Anyone can add me for a game as well. My ID is dweebs0r.
wioooow this is the most exciting day I have ever had work my captivate, please people just uninstall word wize loool, that's is it,this is actually better than words with friends, all it needs is sounds, and an option to pay for a add free version, if they make this a cross platform words with friends is going to be yesterdays news
The reason I want words with friends is so that I can play with my fiancee on her iPhone.
tell get to get a android then you can be reunited with word feud again lol
Having alot of problems staying connected

Back up and working

Been playing it with my coworker since this morning, lol... Btw, is there a way to resign even if it's not your turn yet?
yes, this is MUCH better than WordWize - almost exactly like WWF.... if anyone is up for a game, feel free to invite me: Aftashok is the name.
man I used to LOVE words with friends on my iPhone. Thanks so much for sharing this!!!
If anyone wants to play just add: smeltn
i wish the game would incorporate a ratings system and win/loss records..... the competitive me wishes for such things.
Wish there was at least a paid version to get rid of ads, hopefully that will come cause i dont mind paying a dollar to support the developer on this, pretty good so far and the people over at WWF probably wont release anything for a while. Thought that games that were won/lost didnt go away but apparently they do after 2 days, needs to be sooner than that or user removable.
Name: hollaholla
Sweet!
Mine is TexUS.
It'd be nice if WWF would show up on here though so I can play with iPhone people.
This game uses a lot of data, like 1MB in 1 Minute.
Is there anyway to stop it from using data when you're not in a WiFi area?
thanks for the heads up...
awesome game...
PS: not to thread-jack, but has anyone found a good boggle clone out there... with randomly oriented letters like the real game?

check out wordup. it's a "boggle-like" game.
on topic, word feud is fun. checking out how much batt. it takes with the push notification and multiple games. add me for games: funthony.
I gave this a try a few weeks ago, after using WordWise for 2 months...and I wasn't a big fan. The lack of a paid version, updates, and stat tracking was kind of a deal breaker.
WordWise was admittedly spartan when it first came out...but the developer updates the app fairly regularly, so I think I'mma stick with that one...until it gets abandoned or WordFeud updates. Heh.

Local bible app?

Hey guys -
I was wondering is there a bible app that does not use the internet. It is a WIFI only Xoom and my church does not have an open WIFI.
All the ones I have tried from the market are not formatted for the tablet, and also use an internet connection.
Thanks.
I use Bible by Youversion.
While you're on WiFi, just download the version you use to your XOOM so you can use it anywhere.
You could also use www.acrobible.com
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
I use the NIV Bible from Tecarta. It works well on the tablet and has good navigation, but it crashes occasionally. The Bible from YouVersion is also good, as mentioned above, but the navigation is not as user friendly.
I use tecarta nasb. Works perfectly for me but it does cost money

I have NewVersion I just need to download it directly for offline access. I never knew that.
I cannot log in though, for some reason it does not allow me to input any information for log in. It's just blank. Can some one confirm they are able to log into the software?
Olivetree has a program called Biblereader that is the Cadillac of Bible programs on mobile platforms. The program itself is free, but the various versions cost money. The versions are portable to other mobile platforms, and there are tons of additional resources that are supported in program. The current android version is one major revision behind iOS, but they are working on releasing a new one soon.
All in all, it is one of the best study tools out there on any platform. Check it out.

Will do, I am running into issues with YouVersion.
I use the Barnes & Noble Nook app, and you can get any version of the bible, (N.I.V., King James. Etc...) for about a buck. Has chapters, works off-line, can highlight, annotate, bookmark, lookup words) even does the little page flip like on the iPad, love it.

I've been trying to get the people at globible.com to add the android tablet platform. Very cool Bible app and the more people requesting it the more likely they will push development.
I am not a huge Olive Tree fan but it if probably the best offline Bible. I read that they recently updated the reader so I should give it another try. I have in my Kindle app, too, but find the YouVersion app has the best search feature.
I love youVersions bible. Tons of translations. I bounce around KJV and NIV during study, sometimes KJV is a little over my head.
If you go into the list of translations there is a green button on the right to download to the device locally.
I attend a pretty old fashioned baptist church, and get some pretty interesting looks from the older folks when I break out the tab
Glad to see so many other Christians on here as well, it's exciting.
Edit:
I got a little excited and didn't read the whole thread. But I saw one or two people say something about youVersion and logging in.
Even though it doesn't show your email or passwords in the field, they are in fact being input. Just be careful and you should be able to login without issue. It took me 2 or 3 tries to get the UN and PW right.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I'm working on a Honeycomb optimized bible and note taking app and I could use testers and people to bounce ideas off of.
I love youversion on my phone, but I can't stand it on my tablet. So I figured this would be a cool way to learn a bit about Fragments and just expand my knowledge in general.
Thread is here. I'd love any feedback.
I checked it out!
Thanks!
"ESV Bible" (free) and "LiveBible" (also free) support offline viewing. While offline is the default for ESV, you will need to download the texts for LiveBible first.

[Q] Is there a world building app for the Xoom?

I was wondering if anyone is aware of any World Building Apps for the Xoom. Preferably one that I could sync with an application on my PC, but it isn't required.
My specific use would be for creating a world for a story I am writing. Although I could think of a few other uses as well
@Mythico: I know it may be obvious to you, but most of us have no idea what game/system you are talking about.
World builder as in Minecraft I guess.
I never heard of any, though.

I am actually not refering to any game/system. I am looking for a generic world builder. I am writing a story for a book and would like to find some tool to assist/layout the world I am creating.
If there isn't a generic one then I am fine using that is designed for a specific game even though I have no intentions of using it for said game. It doesn't need to be to detailed. I am more using it for a rough sketch/reference point.
Do you have an example of the type of software you're referring to on another platform?
First thing I thought when I saw the title was how much I want SimCity on this tablet.

Unfortunatly I don't have any example as I have had troubles finding something for my PC/Mac. I mean I could technicially could use paint, but would prefer something a tad more complex then that
It doesn't need to show elevations or be 3d or anything like that. Although if it is something complex it is welcomed. I just want something to be able to tell this is where a house,castle,mountains,or forest is. So that I try and rough idea of the layout of the world. That and so I don't send a character into a forest that doesn't exist.

I've never heard or seen of such a thing, and as a prolific amature writer, I've never considered the need for such a thing either. I either visualise my fictional world in my head, or I make notes.
Try pen and paper. Sometimes, technology gets in the way, y'know?

It is what I do now. I normally just make a mental note or if need be a physical note somewhere. It just got me wondering if there was an application that could allow you to layout everything. Sounds like I may be stuck the old fashion way. Plus as you said sometimes it can get in the way hehe
You want THE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE to give you that tip mate.

what tha **** is this guy talking about?! First we figured one out in Sim City now he says thats wrong because he is writing a book but doesn't know how to because he can't write it with a world app, that both doesn't exist on Android or PC/Mac.
Here's a hint, you want to create a world that you can't write with a paper n pen take up drugs. Closest thing to you making sense.

What is with all the hate seriously. First I didn't say I couldn't write it with pen/paper. I am just looking a tool to assist and help when needing a quick visual reference. I will just stick to pen and paper, was just curious if such an app existed on the android market.
Everyone Else - Thanks for the help guys. It looks like good ol' Pen and Paper for me. Its been working so far, so why fix it if it isn't broken right?
I heard you can get epic mounts at level 40 in World of Warcraft now, is this true?

Hello there XDA People

a basic android app, and I want to work about something myself.
I was hoping you guys will give me some ideas for a very very
basic apps.

Yeah that make sense.
anyway I posted it here so..
In my experience as a software developer I usually start with what would be useful to me that isn't exactly available yet. This way I would be motivated to do it. More like putting a user's hat, think of what you need and then putting your dev hat to create it. It's difficult for others to decide for you.

For my first "real" app, beyond book tutorials, I made a database to store my internship hours and activities. At first it was simple and I had to type in all the fields. Then I expanded it to allow for drop down lists, radio and check box selection and date picker type things. After that I learned how to export my database into both a comma delimited CSV and Excel format. After that I went a step further to allow that information to be uploaded to Dropbox as well as backup the database to Dropbox and the SD card. Lastly, I learned how to let me send the spreadsheets to apps like e-mail and Printershare so I could print straight from the device. Its ugly as hell, but I might clean it up, make it look pretty, and sell it on the Play store if I get time. Currently people in my field have two choices...pen and paper, or a reasonably priced but ultimately pain in the arse online website that charges like $60 a year and we need to track this info for 3-4 years.
So, in other words...as someone else noted...figure out something you need or could use and work on it. If you can do like I did and find something useful for your field, all the better because you could make some money off of it.
One app I would like to see is a decent invoice program that would allow me to store my invoices, backup my database, print invoices to wireless or cloud printers (even using 3rd party stuff like my app does) and have it not cost stupid amounts of money like most of the decent invoicing apps on the market now. I could probably figure it out, but the above app took me over a year of casual programming to figure out...but I work in the medical field...not a developer.

So if I say "Wow, you must really be dumb, huh?" Which is also sarcastic, that's OK? It's not rude? I'm just checking because you are, obviously, saying that all things sarcastic are not rude...making you some kind of expert, right? Wait, that's not rude either because its sarcastic! I'm going to love this, because now I can put down or talk down to anyone, as long as I do it sarcastically, and not be considered rude, condescending, or an ass! Awesome!
Listen, rude by any other name is still rude and by the OP's response it is easy to see he was offended. I would be as well. Perhaps you are comfortable being told to use Google every time you ask a question, but some people prefer talking about things. Maybe hearing about stuff directly from those who have experience with it, etc. Oh, and please, before you respond, don't even go down the road of how the OP could have asked this or said something that way or another. That's just semantic bullsh¡t and I have no desire to hear it.

Nah, not a bother. I don't think you need to be am expert. Hell, I learned what I did while in graduate school (nothing computer related), while working full time and raising a newborn baby. I started with two books...Android Programming for Dummies and Android Development is 24 Hours. Those two books alone gave me the basics I needed to do everything and I would guess if you really sat down and worked it, you could chew through them in a few weeks. I was doing about a chapter every 1-2 weeks and had to reread a lot because I would forget things between reading and practice. At your age it probably wouldn't be the same experience. At 42 I've already started the natural cognitive decline that makes learning new and not familiar material more difficult on top of being incredibly busy. LOL
