    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    What phone are you using? The pebble drains around 5-8% more battery than normal on my Note 3.

    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    I purchased the Basis three days ago. Not at all what I expected. The sleep tracking has failed me the past two nights, stating that I only slept for 26 minutes. The steps seem accurate enough, but the HR monitor disappoints. It reads my resting heart rate at around 80-100. When I'm running, the...

    Must Have Android Apps

    If you're rooted and have a means to flash kernels, Franco's kernel can do this. I'd assume most other custom kernels do this as well.

    I am a college student working at Best Buy to help pay for school, and I can assure you every one of those employees hates telling you about the warranties as much as you hate hearing about it.

    Smartphones

    I was able to mess around with the galaxy s4 for a bit today. It surprised me how much it looked like the s3 -- even after knowing they would look similar. I didn't have the chance to use the camera, but I messed around with the smart scroll feature and the swipe feature with the hand to scroll...

    I have been running 4.2 since AOKP integrated it into their nightlies (around 4 months). I have never once accidentally went to a different lock screen when trying to unlock the phone. I'm not saying that it doesn't happen to you, but I question "half the time". I don't think AOKP added any...

    Smartphones

    I really hope that the S4 gets rid of the physical home button; I just switched to a Galaxy nexus and the onscreen home button is responsive and convenient. There are a few rumors that Google (in cooperation with Motorola) should be putting out phone (X) to compete on a level with Samsung and...

    : Just to provide some perspective to Apple not being the only OEM that puts out a product that works out of the box:http://www.androidauthority.com/whic...hone-5-122142/. Not to mention the fact you bought a Nexus which is made more for a niche community that enjoys tinkering with their...

    Out of all the movies that are currently out, you were bored and went to see one of the movies you have already seen and didn't like?

    http://phandroid.com/2012/12/21/motorola-x-phone/ Google is reportedly developing new toys with Motorola, a phone and tablet, to be released next year.

    The Hobbit

    Ya. It is only in 3D. I've seen both now, and I couldn't tell a difference outside of scenes with a lot of movement; it looked really good in those scenes. I would need a side-by-side comparison spoon fed to me to really tell a difference.

    You wish that they would have cut these scenes or that they were done better? Edit: I'm referring to the bold text.

    The Hobbit

    Agree with the troll scene, but I enjoyed it still. Disagree with riddles, I felt that they (almost) nailed the atmosphere and the dialogue was spot on. My only complaint is the approach of Gollum once he saw Bilbo; it was more eerie in the books with his blue eyes glowing in the dark as Bilbo...

    The Hobbit

    Definitely worth the ticket price and a bonus that the girlfriend loved it. I'll be seeing it again a few days to pass my final judgement, but my initial impression of the movie bodes well for this having the same lasting affect of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

    Rock climbing: Bouldering,Sport,Trad, Free solo, Deep water

    I live about two hours from the Red; probably go there once or twice a year. I used to go to the Obed in Knoxville weekly but switched to mostly bouldering since moving to Chattanooga.

    "Good" games, that you hate.

    I've never enjoyed any Mario game outside of Mario Kart on N64. I think that I was scarred when the girl I used to date always had to beat the levels for me on the SNES version.

    Rock climbing: Bouldering,Sport,Trad, Free solo, Deep water

    You just have to practice. I have been climbing with my brother for years now, and he trains daily, for most of the year, and it really shows when we go outdoors; his grip stamina, etc... are much better than mine. That's not to say that you have to go that route to enjoy yourself, I've climbed...

    The Hobbit

    I've been watching the extended editions the past few days, and my enjoyment hinges upon whether or not I'm studying, etc. Good luck sitting in the theaters lol, I'd be a lot more tempted if the theater companies around me (Carmike and Regal) were actually showing the marathon.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    I do crossfit workouts occassionally but sometimes the workouts are so damn embarrassing, I can't seem to do them while people are watching. Edit: I eat relatively healthy, and it seems like I get enough sleep, but I just don't seem to have the energy levels that I should. Any recommendations?

    The Hobbit

    Decided that I'm going wait for my second viewing to see the movie in HFR. I've read a few reviews on theonering.net, and the majority recommend to see it in HFR but wait till your second viewing: high budget BBC drama.

    Spike Video Game Awars - Results

    Halo 4 was enjoyable for several reasons, but the graphics, while better than Halo 3, were not that great. It definitely was not the best of the year.
