A thread to discuss anything android related from news to apps.

I just recently picked up the Samsung Galaxy S4. Looking for cool stuff to do with it, anyone got app suggestions? Probably the two best apps I’ve found so far are unified remote which allows you to remote control programs on your computer from the phone with a whole host of remotes including a mouse and keyboard emulator and Samsung Link/Video which is some super handy bloatware that lets me stream videos from my Computer’s HDD to my phone over wifi.

Currently I’m trying to get a pipboy emulator to work, but I’m getting this error message. I think the problem is that my file directory looks like this: /storage/extSdCard/pipboy. I suspect the app isn’t compatible with Jelly Bean. I’m currently looking at the app’s source code and hunting for a relatively obvious way to change the directory in the code to match the directory on my phone but I have no idea what I’m doing.
