Android App Walkthrough : Paper Camera

Hey guys !!

I know I haven't been around much. I've been having too much fun making other videos for Google+ and what not. You can check out my G+ profile at: gplus.BooeyOnline.com & the Youtube channel at: WhatMyFace.

Anyways, I found a pretty new camera app I wanna share with everyone. It's called Paper Camera. It has a bunch of filters you can apply to exisiting images, or take new photos with them. The ones I like are the Comic one and the Dark Noir one.

Anyways, I made a video, check it out:

I just uploaded a bunch of sample photos here: http://minus.com/mprpRjXga

Google Music Beta app for Android v3.0.1 - For those not in the States

I'm really liking Google Sites. I found out I can use it as a file storage where I can share files with the public.

Anyways, I have a tutorial on my Goog site (www.somekindagoog.com), where I explain how to sign up for Google Music Beta outside of the United States. After you've signed up, you're going to need the Android app, and it doesn't show up in the Market place.

So..... Here it is...... Enjoy !

Google Music Android App v3.0.1

Comment, share, +1, just say hi, or tell me what you think. I like getting comments =o)

Fail: Android Youtube app update fails. Messes up some phone. (Downgrade here)

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for what you do with your phone. I am simply giving you guys the file I used to downgrade back to the version I had before I updated. It was taken from an HTC Desire Z. It was a back up done on 2011-06-08. It worked then, and it worked for me now. I just wanted to share my experiences and what worked for me. If you aren't experiencing any problems, you don't need to read this. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Google released an update to the Android Youtube app on Aug 8th, 2011. The updated version, version 2.2.16, listed "bug fixes for some devices". What it also did was "mess up some devices" or "not work any more on some devices".

There were reports all over the comment section of the market from angry youtubers telling Google to fix the app and giving it a 1 star rating.

I was one of the few that was affected by the update. Sometimes when I started the app, it would tell me that the app is not installed. When I click on a Youtube link, it doesn't open in Youtube anymore, instead it gives me an option to open it with other apps. When it did work, it would keep asking me to sign in.

Lucky for me I had a back up of the last Youtube app I had on my phone, which was version 2.1.6.

I was looking for a hosting site to upload it to. I wanted to stick to using Google's services and so I found Google's Sites. I made a very crude page, and uploaded the APK file for the Youtube app. 

If you're having problems and want to downgrade, you can find the file HERE. It was a backup taken from an HTC Desire Z, if that's gonna make any difference.

I've downgraded and it works like a charm now.

Hope this was useful.

Let me know what you think, comment, share, +1, or just say hi.

Till next post, Cheers !

Tip: Stop the Trojans, Stops the Malware !! How to:

Disclaimer: Before you read this. It is already assumed that you have the Geek Knowledge of a lvl64 Geek. If you don't know what you're doing, your phone is not rooted, you are thinking of rooting your phone, and you're asking yourself what rooting is.... Don't root your phone.

There's been a lot of talk all over the interweb about how there have been a lot of no no apps showing up on the Android Market. Google has taken them down, so we are safe there, but you know as well as I, that the Android Market Place is not the only place to download apps.

So what can't we do ? How can we stop these horses of Troy from reporting back to the mother land which porn site I've been surfing ?... Easy! The same way you do it on your computer..... with a firewall.

Take my hand and journey with me as I open your mind and let the flow of knowledge in.

To do this, you will need to root your phone. If you haven't done that yet, you should! Root is linux talk for admin, and you own that phone you're holding, so you should be the admin! There are tons of tutorials on the interweb, you just need to use Google. If you need help using Google, I'm going to ask you to leave now.

Update: And it's a GOOD one ! Google+ app v1.0.5

Chrome to Phone: one of my most used Android app

I'm just quickly making this post because I realize some people do not know about this app for the Android. If you already know about it, you can skip this post, you guys already know how great this is. For those of you Android owners who don't know, keep reading. First, a video from Google:

Google+: How to mute a post on Google+ mobile app

This is a continueation of THIS blog post explaining how to stop notifications. This is how to do it on the mobile Google+ app for Android.

I keep seeing people complaining about getting notifications from a post. I sometimes even see people leave a comment telling everyone to stop replying to the post because they are tired of getting the notifications.

There is a MUTE function on Google+ that you can  use to stop the notifications from coming in.

To mute a post using the Google+ mobile app, post up the post you want to mute. On the top right corner, there is a option icon (dots). Hit that, and you will get a pull down menu with the option to mute.

If you want to know how to mute a post on the Google+ website, go HERE.

Muting a post will stop all notifications for that one post from coming in. You can also choose to unmute the post later on to continue receiving notifications later onl.

Cheers
