| ![]() Interesting use of Android technology: An app for Google glass that shows text of spoken words in real-time. Should help hearing impaired. https://gigaom.com/2014/10/03/read-t...ring-impaired/ |

| ![]() Looking for a an android ( around 10k INR budget) for my Mom. A good secondary camera is a priority as it would be mainly used for video calls on skype on 3G. Any suggestions please? |

I missed the "Google Glass" in your post, and so got disappointed. I ought to look for some phone-only app if there is one, as I miss, or have to have repeated, quite a lot of what is said to me. Anyway, it's good to know people are working on this stuff. | |

Also asus phone customers had given negative feedback on their service in some of the sites I checked. That's another important constraint. I willing to stretch my budget if I am not able to find one which is reliable. | |

| ![]() MIUI V6 has made its way to many other phones. My ancient HoX got an update as well. I gave it a whirl and i am mighty impressed with its 5 hours screen time that i got when i used it(highest so far, even higher than the stock rom). Do check Goo.IM of ibotpeaches for english versions of MIUI(this rom has too much bloat in terms of chinese apps). |

| ![]() Given that this work was done by academic institution, hopefully it will be open source and someone will be able to make a standalone app. |

BTW, I tried this thing with alarm clock extreme and No, it doesn't cause the phone to boot for the alarm to go off. But, I liked the app nevertheless, and now don't have to rely on the unreliable stock one. ![]() -Bhargav | |

| ![]() My favourite alarm app is Timely. It's simple, it's beautiful, and it does the job pretty well. Do check it out! |

Got it on COD yesterday at my residence, and just loving every bit of the phone. I have been a Iphone guy and have been using Iphone from 2G, 3G, 3GS, 4, 4S & 5. Did try to switch to android when Samsung S2 was launched, but sold the phone within a week and switched back to Iphone. This is the first time i loved the Android experience. The UI is almost same as Iphone and did not have any problem getting used to it. Would definitely recommend this phone to all those people who have been using Iphone. One of the best phones i have used. ![]() Again a special thanks to KLUB CLASS ![]() | |
