The new Nexus 7 is a fancy device, but it's
 still a little more expensive than some folks are comfortable with. The
 2012 Nexus 7 is still floating around, and Newegg has a cache of them 
for sale on eBay. Just $114.99 and this slab of refurbished Android is 
headed your way this holiday season. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The 2012 N7 is still a respectable device, especially after recent 
updates. It benefits from the TRIM support in Android 4.3 and better 
memory management in 4.4. The 1280x800 screen is still acceptable for 
most people, and this is the model with 32GB of storage. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is one of those limited quantity deals, so hop on it. The price includes free standard shipping, but it's US only (sorry). </div>

Win 1 of 15 HoneyDru Car Chargers From PoweredByGen And Android Police

The Bug Droid is <em>everywhere</em>
 – on cases, shirts, posters, toys, speakers, and a lot more. If you can
 dream it up, it probably exists somewhere. Out of all the 
Android-branded accessories, however, PoweredByGen's Andru is one of the
 best – it's a device charger that looks like the Bug Droid. If you've 
been reading Android Police for any somewhat-lengthy amount of time, 
then you've definitely seen them floating around the site from time to 
time.<br /><br /><br /><strong>This contest is now over.</strong><br />The final results are listed below. If you've won, you will be contacted in the near future. Congratulations! 
<br />Everyone else - keep participating and stay tuned to Android

 The Honeycomb logo is still my personal favorite of all the themed 
Androids, and this charger nails it perfectly. Check it out:<br /><br /><img alt="image" height="190" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_image_thumb4.png" style="display: inline;" title="image" width="320" /> <img alt="2" height="189" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_2_thumb3.png" style="display: inline;" title="2" width="320" /><br /><br /><em>Note: Hand not included.</em><br /><br />It's almost as if Google designed the HC logo with this charger in 
mind. And there's more to this little guy than meets the eye – his wings
 and eyes glow when he's plugged in, it comes with a matching cable, and
 the wings and antennae are both flexible, so they shouldn't break. I 
love you, little Honeycomb-shaped charger.<br /><br />Starting today, you can score a pretty sweet deal on an 
Andru/HoneyDru charger pack – get one of each for $35. Or you can get 
all four Andrus for $65. That's a lot of little Android guys to brighten
 your day (and keep your stuff from dying). <a class="external" href="http://www.powerbygen.com/Christmas-Specials_ep_51-1.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Find 'em here</a>.<br /><br /><img alt="1" height="211" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_1_thumb5.png" style="display: inline;" title="1" width="400" /><br /><br />But that's not all that's going on – PoweredByGen was cool enough to 
give us 15 HoneyDrus to give away to you guys! I'm pretty bummed that I 
can't enter this one myself, so be grateful that you can.<br /><br />Here's how to get in the running:<br /><br />This giveaway starts now and will end in one week, on <strong>Tuesday, December 10th at 12:00AM PT (Midnight).</strong> Winners will be selected at random and notified shortly thereafter.<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">

Tylt Offering 50% Off Its Selection Of Chargers, Cables

adnane 4 Accessories, News February 11, 2014

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="VU-untitled-3-Edit" border="0" height="217" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_VU-untitled-3-Edit_thumb.jpg" style="display: inline;" title="VU-untitled-3-Edit" width="217" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're in the market for some stylish 
new accessories, Tylt has a Cyber Monday deal for you. The company is 
offering a whopping 50% off everything it sells, including the VU 
wireless charger. However, there have been some issues with stability as
 the site gets hammered today, so you can also submit your email to be 
issued a 50% off voucher for use in the future. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="VU_Red_Front" height="217" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_VU_Red_Front_thumb.jpg" style="display: inline;" title="VU_Red_Front" width="217" />  <img alt="ENERGI-Plus-Bag-3qtr-front-face-lft" height="217" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_ENERGI-Plus-Bag-3qtr-front-face-lft_thumb.jpg" style="display: inline;" title="ENERGI-Plus-Bag-3qtr-front-face-lft" width="217" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tylt has a healthy assortment of cables, external batteries, cases, 
and other stuff. It's a bit more expensive than competing gear, but 
that's why the 50% off deal is so cool. The VU charger is admittedly 
pretty neat, but costs $70. With the deal today it's only $35 – pretty 
reasonable. To get the deal, just enter code <strong>50off_ty!t</strong> during checkout (assuming you can get there). Keep in mind there is a $100 limit per user, so you can't go crazy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="9a2IzQU" height="374" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_9a2IzQU_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="9a2IzQU" width="640" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In addition to the VU, Tylt's Energi+ Backpack gets solid reviews, 
and the Y-Charge car chargers are pretty handsome too. It can't hurt to 
at least get on the waiting list for a future coupon. We've been able to
 get through the purchase process, so maybe things are finally getting 
worked out.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're a reddit user, there's no 
shortage of Android clients to choose from. Out of those, if you haven't
 tried reddit sync, there's no time like the present to give it a shot –
 it just got a massive update. Encompassed in this big ol' 
re-written-from-scratch update, you'll find a brand new card-based UI, 
support for multiple users, the hamburger navigation menu, multireddit 
support, and more. Here's a look at the new UI:</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
To make this deal just a little sweeter, the Pro version of the app 
is still on sale for $1. It's definitely worth picking up, and now it 
looks better than ever. If you're on the fence about shelling out a 
dollar, however, there's also a free version you can check out. </div>

If you live right on the bleeding edge of

beta software, you're in luck! <a class="external" href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47991707&postcount=6122" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Xposed 2.4 is now out of beta</a> just one week after KitKat support was first announced.
 As with the previous release, this one comes with the new log viewer 
and some pretty serious performance improvements. Now that it has lost 
the beta tag, it should also be fairly stable, or at least as stable as 
you can expect for a super-charged modding framework</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Xposed is still not equipped to support KitKat's new runtime-in-testing, ART. As developer <a class="external" href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4419114" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rovo89</a>
 explains, trying to run ART and Xposed together will result in a 
bootloop. To prevent users from accidentally sending their devices into a
 tailspin, Xposed will reset the runtime to Dalvik if the switch is 
made.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Android 4.4 users should also remember that some modules may not work
 correctly if they modified anything that has since been changed with 
the upgrade to KitKat. This is one of the ways in which the new log 
viewer can be helpful for debugging, or at least determining if a module
 is incompatible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're already an Xposed user, simply hit the download screen for 
the latest installer, then update the framework from within the app. For
 new users, or those just getting set up on Android 4.4, simply follow 
the instructions on the developer's <a class="external" href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47991707&postcount=6122" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">thread</a>.
 Remember, your device must be rooted and /system must be writeable. 
Don't forget, you will definitely want to make a nandroid backup before 
starting the install, and be prepared to either restore it or hop into <a class="external" href="https://plus.google.com/+PaulWilcox/posts/DZnje4XNPk2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Safe Mode</a> in case anything goes wrong.</div>

DP Review Scrutinizes Every Pixel Of The Nexus 5's Camera In Exhaustive Review

adnane 16 News February 11, 2014

<div style="text-align: center;">
DP Review, one of the go-to sources for 
reviews, guides, discussions, and even periodic photo challenges related
 to all types of photo gear, recently published their own exhaustive 
review of the Nexus 5 on DP Review Connect, the mobile-centric arm of 
the site. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The review covers everything you could possibly want to read about 
the Nexus 5's camera, digging deep into its features and flaws (there 
are many in both columns), why we don't exactly have the great photo 
experience many expected, and providing <i>tons</i> of sample images 
in all scenarios. As with any DP Review piece, it's hard to overstress 
the fact that the review is in-depth, objective, and well worth looking 
at.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The short version is that, as we'd expect, the camera does well in 
good conditions, and can even do alright in low light as long as nothing
 is moving too much. The downsides come primarily with the camera app 
and its controls which lack functionality, take time to start up, and 
have their own set of UX problems.</div>

Micro Miners, Ski Challenge 14, Crazy Horses: Unstabled, And Sports Car Challenge 2

<a href="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/nexusae0_bonusround_thumb.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="bonusround" border="0" height="159" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/nexusae0_bonusround_thumb.png" title="bonusround" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome to the latest entry in our Bonus 
Round series, wherein we tell you all about the new Android games of the
 day that we couldn't get to during our regular news rounds. Consider 
this a quick update for the dedicated gamers who can't wait for our 
bi-weekly roundups, and don't want to wade through a whole day's worth 
of news just to get their pixelated fix. Today we've got the latest 
pixelated title from Noodlecake, a game that rides Olympic coattails, a 
game for insane pony enthusiasts, and a (possible) driving sequel. 
Without further ado: </div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Micro Miners</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you combine the basics of Dig Dug and the free-tapping gameplay of
 the Where's My Water series, you might get something very much like 
Micro Miners. Noodlecake's latest game has you both digging and filling 
in various kinds of earth in order to guide your miners to different 
payloads. You'll have to hit all of them to win, and the screen 
continually scrolls, keeping fans of twitch games happy. Visuals are 
typically pixelated, but the production looks like it's as solid as 
ever. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
--</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Use your finger as a pickaxe, dig tunnels and guide the Micro Miners 
to the Gold, Silver and Coal deposits. Where's my lemmings? Microminers 
is an arcade-puzzler which revolves around the control of a vast horde 
of tiny miners. The screen is constantly scrolling downward, and it’s 
your job to collect all the available deposits of gold, silver, and coal
 that you see. Any missed resource represents a strike, and the level is
 considered failed if you miss three chances to collect.

Ski Challenge 14</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With the Winter Olympics only a few months away, you can expect to 
see the Play Store flooded with winter-themed sports titles very soon. 
The first of these is Ski Challenge 14, and while it's certainly a 
free-to-play cash in, the graphics and gameplay look like they're worthy
 of attention. According to the description, the ski runs are based on 
real runs from pro ski events, including Sochi. The developers plan to 
hold regular weekend events (or at least achievements connected to 
online leaderboards). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
--</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy a little suspense, action and thrills? Then Ski Challenge 14 is
 right for you! The rapid 3D ski simulations game offers exciting races 
and spectacular downhill runs this winter. FOR FREE! Experience exciting
 events and fly down the slope at 130 km/h - your new personal best is 
within reach. Customize your skier and make your own individual outfit 
to make yourself stand out! Various control options, training mode, 
helmet camera for that realistic skiing experience, replay mode, and 
much more await you.

Crazy Horses: Unstabled!</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This game looks like someone tried to clone My Little Pony while 
high. The object is to steer or herd your horses away from objectionable
 bulls. When they hit the bulls, the horses explode, which seems like a 
bit of a stretch. They also explode if they're hit by a tornado, train, 
or bomb, which seems far more likely. Sickeningly cute graphics and 
sound effects accompany a pretty straightforward game which should 
please fans of the various air traffic control titles out there. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Crazy Horses have bolted from the stable! Round them up and herd 
them back before their arch-enemies the Bullies skewer, flatten or blow 
them up!

Sports Car Challenge 2</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Technically this is a sequel to Fishlabs' original Sports Car Challenge.
 I say technically, because it's got exactly the same cars, tracks, and 
features - we honestly can't tell if this is a new game or just a 
re-submitted copy. (It crashes on my daily driver phone, if you're 
wondering.) In either case, it's a free download, so give it a chance if
 you want to test-drive a Bugatti against a ghost driver. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
--</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
High-end racing on mobile enters the next round with Sports Car 
Challenge 2 by Volkswagen Group (China) and Fishlabs. Drive a total of 
14 exclusive super cars by international top-brands such as Audi, 
Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Porsche and Volkswagen. Enjoy 
photo-realistic 3D graphics and spectacular attention to detail. Show 
your skills on the asphalt in three ambitious game modes and make your 
way to the top of the global leader boards. Fill your trophy room with 
the rewards from dozens of challenging achievements!
