Google Engineer Unifies The Menu And Overflow Buttons In KitKat, Makes Monty Python Jokes

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_buttonsmang2_thumb.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="buttonsmang2" border="0" height="400" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_buttonsmang2_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="buttonsmang2" width="241" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The physical Menu button is an interesting holdout from an earlier age of Android. While Google's devices and those manufacturers that roughly follow Google's guidelines (like Motorola and LG) don't use it, Samsung and a few others do, leaving app developers in a tight spot when it comes to implementing an overflow button. Today <a class="external" href="http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1sghyd/kitkatgoogle_wants_to_kill_the_menu_button_always" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a Reddit user</a> found this change to the Action Bar Policy file for KitKat <a class="external" href="https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base.git/+/ea04f3cfc6e245fb415fd352ed0048cd940a46fe" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">in Google's Git repository</a>. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The gist is that now API-compliant apps will <em>always </em>show the overflow menu button on the action bar at the top of a Holo app, rather than having it appear or disappear depending on whether or not your phone (or tablet, <em>SAMSUNG</em>) has a physical menu key. It's a small change, but it means that the user interface for apps that use the overflow menu button will remain constant across devices rather than shifting based on physical parameters. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Google engineer Adam Powell placed this comment on the change in Git. Because why the Hell not? </div> <div class="fancy_blockquote" style="text-align: center;"> <blockquote> <pre>Always show overflow buttons on action bars The menu button is not pining, it's passed on! This button is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to a flagship device it'd be pushing up the daisies! <a class="external" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vuW6tQ0218" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">THIS IS AN EX-BUTTON!!</a></pre> </blockquote> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> This change should only affect phones or tablets that have been upgraded to KitKat, so at the moment I think only the Google Play Edition devices will see it. Maybe this will finally convince certain manufactures (still looking at you, Samsung) to abandon the hardware menu button. But probably not. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em>Source: <a class="external" href="https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base.git/+/ea04f3cfc6e245fb415fd352ed0048cd940a46fe" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">GoogleSource.com</a> via <a class="external" href="http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1sghyd/kitkatgoogle_wants_to_kill_the_menu_button_always" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Reddit</a></em></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="pvc_count_me216188"></span></div> <div class="multi_page_links" style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="post_tags" style="text-align: left;"> Tags:<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">action bar</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">kitkat</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">looking at you Samsung</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">menu</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">menu button</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">user interface</a> </div> </div>

AT&T Customers Can Now Enjoy 4G LTE Roaming In Canada Thanks To New Agreement With Rogers

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_DataPlan_thumb.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="DataPlan" border="0" height="400" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_DataPlan_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="DataPlan" width="301" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Today AT&T announced an agreement with Canadian wireless carrier Rogers that will enable its customers to have access to 4G LTE data speeds even when on the northern side of the border. This arrangement makes AT&T the first American carrier to offer international LTE roaming, but before some of you get too excited, know that this luxury still doesn't come cheaply. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> AT&T customers can roam internationally by selecting a <a class="external" href="http://www.att.com/att/global/affordable-world-packages/?data" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Data Global Add-On</a> package, the same ones needed to access 3G. These offer 120MB of data for $30 a month, 300MB for $60 a month, or 800MB for $120 a month. Without a package, you're looking at paying $15.36 per megabyte.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> With such limits, accessing 4G LTE instead of 3G is nearly more of a curse than a blessing, as you will simply be able to blow past your data cap more quickly. It would likely still be cheaper to buy a local SIM card and use that for the duration of your stay.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> But hey, international roaming is convenient, and there are surely reasons to want to avoid picking up a new line just to leave the country. You just might want to rely on something other than your phone for browsing the web while you're there.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em>Source: <a class="external" href="http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=25149&cdvn=news&newsarticleid=37333" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">AT&T</a></em></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="pvc_count_me216202"></span></div> <div class="multi_page_links" style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="post_tags" style="text-align: left;"> Tags:<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">4g LTE</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">AT&T</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">canada</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">international roaming</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">roaming</a> </div> </div>

T-Mobile's Galaxy Note II Finally Gets Its Android 4.3 And Galaxy Gear OTA Update

Samsung's Galaxy S4, S III, and the Note II have been getting the same update on other American carriers, but T-Mobile is behind the leaked release schedule (though not by much). The Note II is the last Samsung phone on T-Mobile scheduled to get the update, at least for the moment. </div> <div style="text-align: center;">  <img alt="note2" height="400" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_note2_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="note2" width="225" /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em>Screenshot credits: </em><a class="external" href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48301004&postcount=31" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><em>ardcifliku</em></a><em>, </em><a class="external" href="https://twitter.com/slimatic/status/410069417125761024" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="https://twitter.com/slimatic/status/410069417125761024"><em>@limatic</em></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> In addition to compatibility with Samsung's Galaxy Gear smartwatch, the update should add all the Android 4.3 features you've been craving, plus some new TouchWiz goodies and a few visual changes to keep the interface in line with the newer Galaxy Note 3. The update is reportedly available via the usual channels: either activated by an OTA prompt, a manual refresh in the settings, or downloaded and installed via Samsung's Kies software. Keep in mind that the OTA update is probably being sent out in waves, and it may be a few days before it gets to you.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The update is an impressive 615 megabytes, so you might want to connect to a WiFi hotspot for speed if nothing else. As usual, it will probably break root (or simply fail if you've got root or a custom recovery), so it's best to wait for a new root method on stock firmware if you rely on those apps. Now Samsung users can settle in for the long wait to Android 4.4.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em>Source: </em><a class="external" href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2561794" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><em>XDA Developers</em></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em> </em><em> </em></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="pvc_count_me216215"></span></div> <div class="multi_page_links" style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="post_tags" style="text-align: left;"> Tags:<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">Android 4.3</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">Galaxy Gear</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">galaxy note ii</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">jelly bean 4.3</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">ota</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">Samsung</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">SGH-T889</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">software update</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">T-Mobile</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">T889</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">T889UVUCMK7</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">UVUCMK7</a> </div> </div>

Latest Humble Weekly Sale Contains Two Android Games - NightSky And MANOS: The Hands Of Fate

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_WeeklySale_thumb.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="WeeklySale" border="0" height="342" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_WeeklySale_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="WeeklySale" width="640" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> This week's <a class="external" href="https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Humble Weekly Sale</a> isn't filled with Android games, but it contains two goodies that are arguably worth the price of admission alone - NightSky and MANOS: The Hands of Fate. The former is available in the Play Store for $4.99, and the latter, $2.49. But if you pay over six bucks for this week's bundle, you can get both games along with seven additional titles for your PC and the Multimedia Fusion 2 game development software. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="NightSky" height="195" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_NightSky_thumb.jpg" style="display: inline;" title="NightSky" width="329" /> <a class="fancybox" href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="fancybox" title="MANOS"><img alt="MANOS" height="195" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_MANOS_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="MANOS" width="329" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Both of this week's Android games are side scrollers, though they take drastically different forms. NightSky chronicles the precarious yet soothing journey of a black ball through daunting physics-based puzzles. MANOS is more of a pixelated homage to a bygone era of both cinema and gaming, with visuals pixelated enough to make you long for the technological advancements introduced by the Super Nintendo.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <a class="toc-anchor" href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="nightsky"></a></div> <h2 style="text-align: center;"> NightSky</h2> <div style="text-align: center;"> <a class="toc-anchor" href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="manos-the-hands-of-fate"></a></div> <h2 style="text-align: center;"> MANOS: The Hands of Fate</h2> <div style="text-align: center;"> Head over to the <a class="external" href="https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Humble Weekly site</a> to take advantage of this offer while it's still available, or if you're only interested in one title or the other, feel free to snag either by hitting up the widgets below.</div> <div class="pb-app-box" data-lang="en" data-theme="discover" data-title="NightSky" id="pb_app_box_0" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="pb-app-widget-discover "> <div class="pb-wd-controls"> <div class="pb-wd-icon"> <a href="http://playboard.me/android/apps/com.nicalis.nightsky?lang=en&ref_host=www.androidpolice.com" target="blank"><img alt="NightSky HD" src="http://d2lh3rxs7crswz.cloudfront.net/com.nicalis.nightsky.png" /></a></div> <div class="pb-wd-controls"> <div class="pb-wd-data-title "> <a href="http://playboard.me/android/apps/com.nicalis.nightsky?lang=en&ref_host=www.androidpolice.com" target="blank">NightSky HD</a></div> <div class="pb-wd-data-ratings"> <span class="pb-wd-rating-45">64 ratings</span></div> <div class="pb-wd-data-sup-info"> by <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Nicalis%2C+Inc." target="blank">Nicalis, Inc.</a><br />1,000 - 5,000 downloads</div>  <div class="pb-wd-controls-inst "> <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nicalis.nightsky&hl=en&referrer=utm_source%3DPlayboard%26utm_medium%3DWidgetWeb%26utm_campaign%3DPlayboard" target="_blank">Install ($4.99)</a></div> </div>  <div class="pb-wd-controls-inst "> <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freakzone.manos&hl=en&referrer=utm_source%3DPlayboard%26utm_medium%3DWidgetWeb%26utm_campaign%3DPlayboard" target="_blank">Install ($2.49)</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="pb-app-box" data-lang="en" data-theme="discover" data-title="MANOS: The Hands of Fate" id="pb_app_box_1" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="pb-app-widget-discover "> <div class="pb-app-widget-table"> <div class="pb-wd-footer">  </div> </div> </div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em>Source: <a class="external" href="http://blog.humblebundle.com/post/69091447128/humble-weekly-sale-is-here-featuring-oddplanet-knytt" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">The Humble Mumble</a></em></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="pvc_count_me215783"></span></div> <div class="multi_page_links" style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="post_tags" style="text-align: left;"> Tags:<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">humble bundle</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">humble weekly sale</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">manos</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">NightSky</a> </div> </div>

The app is still split into music stored on Amazon's cloud service and locally on your device, with the same basic tabbed interface that lets you swipe across playlists, artists, albums, songs, et cetera. With the new simplified UI the tabs are really just highlighted words with the same gray-white-orange palette on display in most of Amazon's first-party Kindle Fire apps. The new integration with the MP3 store looks nice. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Amazon claims that the app is now "lightning fast," and indeed, it does feel considerably more snappy than the last time I tried it. You can also share your listening habits on Facebook, something that the Google Play Music app recently acquired. Amazon's music store and cloud player is still a tough sell if you're invested in Google Play, or indeed, any other music service, but if you've been using Amazon MP3 since the beginning your Android experience should now be markedly improved. </div> <div class="pb-app-box" data-lang="en" data-theme="discover" data-title="Amazon MP3" id="pb_app_box_0" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="pb-app-widget-discover "> <div class="pb-app-widget-table"> <div class="pb-wd-icon"> <img alt="Amazon MP3 – play and download" src="http://d2lh3rxs7crswz.cloudfront.net/com.amazon.mp3.png" /></div> <div class="pb-wd-controls"> <div class="pb-wd-data-title "> Amazon MP3 – play and download</div> <div class="pb-wd-data-ratings"> <span class="pb-wd-rating-35">127,418 ratings</span></div> <div class="pb-wd-data-sup-info"> by <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Amazon+Mobile+LLC" target="blank">Amazon Mobile LLC</a><br />10,000,000 - 50,000,000 downloads</div>  <div class="pb-wd-controls-inst "> <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amazon.mp3&hl=en&referrer=utm_source%3DPlayboard%26utm_medium%3DWidgetWeb%26utm_campaign%3DPlayboard" target="_blank">Install (FREE)</a></div> </div> <div class="pb-wd-footer">  </div> </div> </div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="pvc_count_me215802"></span></div> <div class="multi_page_links" style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="post_tags" style="text-align: left;"> Tags:<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">amazon</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">amazon mp3</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">music apps</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">streaming music</a> </div> </div>

Polaroid's Android-Powered iM1836 Camera Gets A Well-Deserved Preliminary Sales Ban Courtesy Of Nikon

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_polariod_thumb.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="polariod" border="0" height="191" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_polariod_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="polariod" width="400" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Remember when Apple was up in arms about Samsung swiping their look for the first generation of Galaxy phones and tablets? Prepare for a case of design patent infringement that makes that look pretty tame. Today <a class="external" href="http://nikon.com/news/2013/1206_01.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nikon issued a press release</a> stating that it had won a preliminary sales and import injunction against Sakar International, a current licensee of the Polaroid brand name, for the Android-powered Polaroid iM1836. See if you can guess why. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Yup, that thing is a dead ringer for the Nikon J1, a high-end, compact, replaceable-lens camera that competes with the Micro 4/3 standard. From body shape to color choice to button placement, it's a pretty clear knockoff - even the plastic lip around the lens release button looks similar. Nikon is currently suing Sakar for design patent and trade dress infringement, which is a nice corporate way of saying, "that thing's a knockoff, knock it off the shelves." As of Wednesday Sakar is barred from selling, manufacturing, importing, advertising, or shipping the Polaroid iM1836 in the US pending the outcome of the lawsuit. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Sales injunctions before trial are generally pretty hard to get, so it takes a dramatic case of infringement to score one. The iM1836 would seem to qualify. David Ruddock had some time with the Android-powered camera way back at CES 2013, and according to his hands-on, the odd design decisions, poor software, and questionable build quality made it unworthy of attention. As the kids say: "and nothing of value was lost." </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <em>Source: <a class="external" href="http://nikon.com/news/2013/1206_01.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nikon</a> via <a class="external" href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/12/06/nikon-first-blood-against-polaroid-im1836-kirf-j1/?utm_source=Feed_Classic_Full&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget&?ncid=rss_full" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Engadget</a></em></div> <div class="fancy_blockquote" style="text-align: center;"> <blockquote> On October 11, 2013, Nikon Corporation and Nikon Inc. ("Nikon") sued Sakar International, Inc. ("Sakar") in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for design patent infringement and trade dress infringement arising from Sakar's "Polaroid iM1836" digital camera (Case No. 13-Civ-7228 (S.D.N.Y)). <br /> Shortly thereafter, Nikon moved for a preliminary injunction to stop the sales and advertising of the Polaroid iM1836 digital camera. After appearing before the Court, Sakar and Nikon agreed on the terms of a preliminary injunction. The Court thus issued a Preliminary Injunction Order on December 4, 2013 (Eastern Standard Time). <br /> As part of the injunction, Sakar will no longer manufacture, import, advertise, promote, offer for sale, sell, or ship the Polaroid iM1836 digital camera in its present configuration. <br /> The abovementioned design patent and trade dress rights are related to the "Nikon 1" Advanced Camera with Interchangeable Lenses.<br /> </blockquote> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="pvc_count_me215823"></span></div> <div class="multi_page_links" style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="post_tags" style="text-align: center;"> Tags:<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">camera</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">design patent</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">infringement</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag">patent</a> <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="tag" title="">sales ban</a> </div> </div>

Google News Mobile Site Set To Receive A Fresh New Look Over The Next Few Days

With the update, the aging website will finally make the jump into the post-Ice Cream Sandwich era of Android. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span id="more-215943"></span> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="News1" height="400" src="http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/nexusae0_News1_thumb.png" style="display: inline;" title="News1" width="224" /> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The new site will have both a light and dark theme, and readers will be able to change the size of the story cards and the text inside them.
