wrsthowdy netritious, cyberanger14:48
netritioushowdy wrst, cyberanger15:10
netritioustrying out CM11/4.4.4 on my old captivate glide15:11
wrsthow's that working netritious?15:12
wrstI must say I have enjoyed not having to install CM for a while with the nexus 5, I have it rooted running xposed framework15:13
netritiousI like it pretty well wrpretty good wrst. switching to video recorder mode FC's but otherwise is very very fast15:13
netritiousand stable..sorry for the over run there^15:14
wrstnice I had cm 11 on my old galaxy nexus and it ran pretty nicely even with the hacked together video drivers they were putting it with15:14
netritiousthe captivate glide is a toy now. unlocked it at&t, flashed TWRP, started trying ROMs15:16
netritious*unlocked it from at&t15:16
wrstnice15:16
wrstI have moved away from the big carriers now I'm no an MVNO but still cdma wish we had good gsm coverage here15:17
wrstI could play more wtih phones15:17
netritiousI can understand that wrst15:17
wrstwhere I am at is a sprint reseller so I do have the nexus 5 and surpringly enough sprint has coverage that rivals verizon in the areas i travel15:18
netritiousnice wrst15:20
netritiousI got a really good deal from tmo compared to at&t and we went from four-five year old smartphones x2 and 1 feature phone to 3x galaxy S 4, u/u/u for same price.15:20
netritiousat&t was going to be $60 more a month15:20
wrstI'm on ting its a usage based thing, I'm usually right at 35 bucks a month before tax15:21
wrstthe wife is on big red still, and that is running us about 80 bucks a month :\15:21
netritioushow much for the phone?15:21
netritious...the one on ting15:22
wrstthe nexus 5 was straight from the google play store right at 400 bucks15:22
wrstand of course its unlocked so can go to att or tmo if I desire15:22
netritiousnice and not a bad price15:23
wrsthad a galaxy nexus until the n5 came out picked it up for about 100 bucks15:23
netritiousnice! what a steal15:24
wrstyeah of course it was at its EOL but still its a capable backup still15:25
wrstand they allow you to bring a lot of devices over, not typical of people tied to cdma networks so I have been very happy with them15:25
netritioushave you ever used complete linux installer wrst?15:26
wrstno I am actually googling that now to see what it is :)15:27
wrstahh cool15:28
wrstwait I have used this :)15:28
netritiousyeah I had heard about it but hadn't bothered...microsdhc wasn't large or fast enough for something like that15:28
wrstthe vnc part reminded me, and also seeing the "installed" label on the google play link15:28
wrstits not life changing or it wasn't when I tried it15:28
wrstI have tried ubuntu on my nexus 515:29
wrstthe proper touch OS15:29
wrstor well using the word proper might not apply but what they are hoping will be a proper touch os :)15:29
netritiousI'm going to poke around. I'm curious if build-essential will install15:30
wrstI really can't remember much about it. Seems like I tried this on my old SIII so its been some time15:30
wrstThis could cause me to root my tablet however15:30
wrstthanks for the reminder netritious, now I'm going to destroy a perfectly good tablet15:30
wrst:D15:31
netritiousnp wrst :D15:31
wrstha ha and you really had to twist my arm15:31
netritiouslol not to hard!15:32
wrstcurious what something like that looks like under high ppi anyway, my tablet has better resolution than my tv and my laptop, and my external monitor combined15:32
netritiousI'm not going for desktop15:32
netritiousjust want to ssh in15:33
wrstgotcha, I think that was my issue trying to run a desktop on it15:33
netritiouson my GS4 I bet it would look awesome...native 1080p! Still having a hard time believing it lol15:34
wrstyes 1080P on a phone is nutc, and this tablet has 1600x2560 which is crazy and my tv is 720P :\15:35
netritiouslol nice wrst15:36
wrstyes I watch as much video as possible on the tablet15:36
wrstits disappointing on the tv, but the darn thing won't die!15:36
wrstI'm never buying another LG tv they last too long :)15:36
netritioushaha I am the same way with TVs...15:37
wrstI just can't buy one without it dying first or needing it in another room... hey now that's a plan15:37
netritiousmy daughter still has 19" viewsonic LCD-TV with RCA, D-SUB, Antenna in, and HDMI v1.1 lol15:38
