Update lands to make Minecraft Pocket Edition even Better

Sunday, February 12th, 2012

If you are a big Minecraftian, or whatever you might can yourself, then an update just landed that might make you waste away the rest of the weekend. We all know that Minecraft PE is a huge seller, but it did have its limitations. With only one available mode, creativity mode, leaving you wanting more and many people board. Well, that is no longer the case.

MPE has just been updated today, bringing the 8-bit wonder version 0.2.0. The update brings in a whole slew of new goodies to feed your addiction with. There is a new mode called ‘Survival’, new blocks like doors and fences, and the ability to fly has also been added in. They have even tossed in sheep and zombies. Overall it is a pretty big update that offers you a much better experience for your money.

If you haven’t picked the update up yet you should. Feel free to pop into the market via the QR code below to snag it faster, or to pick the game up if have been waiting for it to do more.

Application: Minecraft – Pocket Edition
Developer: Mojang
Cost: $6.99

Alternatively, it looks like they have update the DEMO version with the same new goodies. You can check it out HERE.

Angry Birds looking to dominate the world, coming to Facebook Feb 14th

Sunday, January 29th, 2012

As if we can’t feed our Angry Birds addiction on Android, iOS, Chrome and anywhere else they have stuck their little feathers, now we will soon have Facebook integration. As of February 14th, Valentines day I might add, you will be able to toss those pissed off birds through your Facebook account. Nothing has been fully revealed other than it is coming. They do provide a web address at the end of the video to invite your friends though. Also, from the looks of it, the sling shot is made of metal, there looks to be some power up options and the birds get HUGE. Might be a different experience than we are used too. Knowing Facebook though, they will have their hand in the pot somehow of course and make it another ginormous pain in my butt. Keep an eye out for it on February 14th and check out the semi teaser video below -

Ice Cream Sandwich dialer cloned for use with Epic 4G Touch

Thursday, November 10th, 2011

Seems as though no one can get enough Ice Cream Sandwich for their devices. Even if it just a modified apk that looks like ICS, people are crazy for it. Although the new look is great, new icons and a new color doesn’t always feed your addiction for the latest and greatest. If you are still a junky like the rest of us though, XDA member ssconceptz has taken some time out of his life to theme up the standard contacts.apk located in your Epic 4G Touch.

*Note* Your tabs will not be ICS tabs as seen in the image because this will reflect your roms theme for tabs. You will however get the ICS tab icons and ICS Icon.

Screen shot shows the ICS Dialer running on Overstew’s ICS Theme for Starburst & midNight.

If you are ready to snag up some more themed out ICS love for your device, head on over to ssconceptz’s XDA thread for files, updates and full instructions.

Enjoy!

Pinnin’ Ain’t Easy, But Somebody Wants to Do It–Where’s Pinterest for Android?

"AndroidPINS" –Android Pinterest Snapshot


Okay, soooo, I might be showing my ovaries here, but, am I the only one that’s dying for some developer out there to get to it and bring the addiction that is Pinterest, to Android? I apologize in advance if I am introducing you to your [future] latest guilty pleasure, but, in case you’re not familiar and currently asking yourself, “What is Pinterest?”…welp, basically, it’s a site that allows you to create virtual pinboards. See, you create various boards (for instance, you could create an ‘AndroidPINS’ board, as I did) and then as you come across different images on the web that you’d like to ‘bookmark’, you just ‘pin’ them to your boards for easy access (when you click on the image that you pinned, it takes you directly to the site that you snagged it from)! It may not sound all that enthralling, but trust me, if you sign up and start pinning, I can promise you that you’ll get addicted. Which brings me back to my problem, I’m totally addicted–but, more often than not, I’m on my G2x …and unfortunately, I can’t do any pinning because there’s no [ANDROID] app for that! I mean, coooome ON, the other guys can pin, why can’t I? Consider this my desperate outcry to you talented Android developers out there to bring a  Pinterest application to the Android Market, please…I mean, I’m just trying to LIVE here. And by ‘live’, I totally mean, pin.

 

Am I the only one that wants to see an Android app for this, or are some of you out there waiting on it too? Let us know!
