hi all...
i'm looking for someone to build a clone of the word-game boggle. I'd like to work with a developer to create this app. I' am happy to fund this project and work out any arrangement which would be in the developers best interest.
in the iphone it is called wurddle (http://semisecretsoftware.com/wurdle/), it is probably the best boggle clone out currently. there are several apps out for winmo (Wordly, Scramble, etc) but they are all rubbish; actually, Wordly is very good except that the developer didnt pay attention to several important factors( the algorithim for letter distribution is not thought out, so you can never make any real words due to the consonant-vowel distribution).
i am an avid word game enthusiast and would like to build this to proper specs (most updated dictionary, various dictionary options, 5x5 and 4x4 optionality, proper letter algorithim, i could go on....)
please note i am not looking to steal anyones work nor am i requesting warez. i would like to build this from the ground up and incur whatever costs are necessary to do so.
i am not super rich but i can afford to fund this to a degree, perhaps fully. mostly because it is killing me that the iphone has this app and my awesome hd2 has junk. i've attached a few pictures of wurdle, wordly, and actual boggle to give you an idea of what im looking for.
let's create something great!
thanks all,
jason

Jason, i have deleted the post in QnA so you dont get spread out replys, cheers.
Hmm...This seems like a rather interesting project. I could take this on! I'm not the best dev out there, but this would def. serve as a great learning block for me, and I could definitely get it done. I just need the ideas and how you want it to look/work, and I can do the rest
PM me or email me at [email protected]

awesome! emailing...
i love this site. love it.
Yes, like the idea of the program, You need a dictionairy for every language you create it in.
This will be one of the best game with a very good learning effect for mom and da for her childs . And for the game freaks under us ...
I can help you with the development if needed but actually I would like a program like this:
- http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cijfers_en_Letters
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countdown_(game_show)
Does it already exist too?
i would play this game all day, looking forward to it.

@the0ne:
that's a good sample, but there is no trail version. So it is not the solution to see how it works or do some tests before pay. I think in this case we must find out the wheel a second time .

actually that game sucks. i bought it, like many others. they all suck. there is at least one inherintly wrong thing in every single one of these boggle clones that make it nauseating for me to play. it has the right idea but clearly no developer understands how to create a great, realistic boggle app; which is why i have decided to step in and do this myself.
that game show thing looks pretty cool actually.

Yes, it does.
Could you make a little storyboard what functions, actions, options this program should have. I'm interested in the development but don't know for sure what should be in or out.
Hi, I am about to recieve my newly bought android phone soon and I was checking out some apps on the Android Market to prepare myself for the android overload with apps
Well, after looking through the pages, I saw a lot of apps for maintenance so I was wondering if they are actually useful or just a bunch of useless apps?
Thanks in advance for the info !
Cheers
I think your topic is to broad. There are generally both good and bad apps in any given category

Thats mainly why I'm asking it, there are so many apps about maintenance and I would like to know which any of you might think/know is good. Because my dad has tried something like a "Battery Life Saver" but it just took more of his RAM so it was pointless in one way but useful in another.
Basicly if the apps are useful, if yes, which are useful, and in what kind of way it's useful.
Or for example "Tool X can be used each month to clean ..." , "Tool Y can be used to improve CPU/RAM or any other kind".
Sometimes you see a "big" post of someone who explains it for PC for noobs like:
1. Do a defrag of your PC each 6 months.
2. Clean registry each ...
...
Sorry if I'm asking for too much.
Hello Guys,
Has anyone come across a really cool educational android app, preferably something that will give my mind a workout?
I’ve been playing this awesome math game:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epicapps.mathfun
Rock solid in my book, can’t do better than this.
Cool! Downloading now, expect feedback soon!

Hi guys I just switched over to Verizon Wireless and changed my phone to Samsung Galaxy S4.
I've been with Apple and iPhone ever since the first generation iPhone came out, meaning I'm only familiar with iOS and iPhones
Now I've jailbroken my iphones a crap ton of times, but I have no clue on what to do anything with Android xD
Before switching over, I did some basic research on Android operating system and the Galaxy phones, and from what I found out, Android is a hell of a lot more customizable, open source platform, and there are a lot of crazy stuff you can do with it
I have some basic questions about rooting as a whole
1. What is the %/chance of my Galaxy S4 becoming bricked?
2. How do I backup all my contacts, apps, games, music, photos and such on Android?
3. Is there a software for Android like how Apple had iTunes?
4. If I mess something up and my phone becomes bricked, is there any way to fix it without replacing phone?
5. Moderator Edit - We don't do that here
6. Is there an Installous/Vshare type program for Android phones?
Thank you!

Ill answer your first question. There is always a chance of bricking your phone when rooting and flashing custom roms and mods to your phone. But if you follow the instructions of whatever root method you choose to a tee, you should be fine. I was new to rooting when I got my s3 and I followed the instructions and read as much as I could, and everything went perfect. Check android developement for verizon s4 for all your rooting needs.

To answer questions 5 and 6...
Perhaps you missed the word "developers" in the name of the site. Coming to a community of developers and asking advice how how to screw them over is akin to being an invited guest in someone's house and arbitrarily spitting in their face. Pony up and pay for the apps if their paid.

I have recently bought an Onyx Boox Note. This is an E-Ink device that runs Android 6.0.1. It has a 10.3 inch display, 2 gb of RAM, and 32 gb of internal storage. No sd card slot. There is no custom recovery available for it, to my knowledge. Neither Kingoroot nor Kingroot were able to root it. I have adb access to the Note, however, but not fastboot.
Any suggestions as to what I could try? Let me know if you need more info about the device.
Thanks for your help.
Update: I have achieved root. I used King Root which finally worked after a couple of attempts. I then used the SuperSuMe Pro app to switch myself over to SuperSU. All is well now.
OT, So is the device worth the $$$?

That depends on how you plan to use it. (The price is not out of line if you compare it with an iPad or some similarly sized Android tablet.)
The best answer I can give you is to offer you a checklist of various features. If you can say "yes" to most, if not all, of them, then the Note might be worth the cost for you.
1) Your eyes like E-Ink much more than LED.
2) You want a device light enough for lengthy ebook reading sessions, yet large enough to comfortably read pdfs.
3) You want the ability to install apps of your choice (Instapaper, Moon Reader, Outlook, Office, whatever...)
4) A frontlight is not essential.
5) A sd card slot is not essential.
6) Bluetooth capability is important.
7) Note-taking with a stylus is important to you.
8) Audio capability is useful to you.
9) You find the older crop of E-Ink devices too slow.
There may be other features you may value, but this will do as a general checklist. Then you can see for yourself if the Note is worth the money or not.
Please we need root!!!! I was not able to get root with my firmware!!!!
Hi, Where did you buy this device? I like it and my eyes are tied of LCD screens.
More one question: Could you please show some pictures with taking notes on Onenote?
Thanks

I bought my device from here.
I don't have OneNote installed on my device. However, if you check out the Onyx threads on Mobileread, you'll find reports that there is a significant lag when someone takes notes with OneNote, or any third party app. The stock Note app works much better - but that doesn't help you, unfortunately.
I don't use the note-taking functions very much, other that annotations and the like on pdfs.

The Android applications for taking notes are not ready for this device yet (if they use the Note's SDK, that will be much different history), they have a lot of lag, but instead you can use the built in note application and the is like writing in paper.
I use it to read book and the web.
Need help
Guys, thanks a lot for answers. Actually I need an e-ink device on Android with a big screen and capable to run the app JW Library. But because this devise is new on the market, I am afraid to spent the money (and it is not a cheap one) and discover that it can not run this app smoothly. I have a Kindle Paper White and I love it, but its screen is too small and it is not an Android.
May I ask you guys a favor?
Could someone of you guys to install this app from Google Store and to download just some magazines and books and to try to turn pages, to click on references and to see how it works (the app does not require registration). I think with 2 Gb of RAM and 4 core proc. it should work smoothly as much as the e-ink screen allows, but I am afraid to buy it and discover that this app is too heavy for the Note and its software.
Please, I need a help with this.
Thank you in advance for the help!
P.S.: It would be great if someone could attache a picture of the Note with this app working/opened if it is not too much to ask for.
I might be able to try it tomorrow. One of the main reasons why I bought the Note was its ability to run the Logos Bible Software app - and the Note runs it perfectly. I'll see what I can do about pics. I can attach screenshots as well.
ERASED.
citytrader said:
I did the test, is not like turning pages because the application has the scroll vertical and the experience was smooth (smooth as an eink allows), the experience was like Galaxy TAB S with a display a bit slower than the Galaxy.
This device for reading is really amazing, I believe till now is the best in the market.
The screenshots are in the attachment.

@IurMal: How is it going with the JW Library on an Onyx Boox Note? Does this device have to be rooted? I am looking for a decent e-ink device which can run the JW Library flawlessly.

My question was about Onyx Boox Note and whether it can run certain software installed from Google Play flawlessly without the need to root this device.

Hello Windsor1959, I have a ONYX BOOX Note too, but the >Pro< Version
I tried the apk and Windows-Software from the link you provided (Thank You for sharing!! :laugh, but I could not do it:
KingRoot.apk and Windows Application with USB + ADB, everytime it replies "no root possible", even after factory reset and multiple on/off tries;
Because I don't have an open boot-loader I cant do much else, or can I ??
6.0.1 Android Marshmallow should have enough holes in it, no?

After one of the firmware updates, I was unable to get root again. So Onyx must have changed something, which made it harder to root the device. To be honest, I think I lucked out in getting root in the first place!
Yes, you'd think that Marshmallow would have plenty of holes in it! But I haven't seen anyone else get root on a Note, either, since then.
If anyone else reading this has, please tell us how you did it!

Just to confirm what @Windsor1959 encountered that previously I was able to obtain root through Kingroot. Recently I updated the firmware for my Onyx Boox Note and I tried to root again with Kingroot but was not successful. I encounter this post while I am searching for method to root it again (very unlikely at this point).
If anyone is still interested.
