What apps or accessories do you expect to be developed for Google Glass? - Glass General

Google Glass is coming and the potential is exciting. I happened to run into one pic on facebook and it got me thinking that GG is supposed to free your hands so why should we still use a cloth to clean it?
The link is http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=272416222894944&set=a.266506836819216.1073741828.264050273731539&type=1&theater
Is something like this practical or even feasible? I don’t think many people foresaw using their phones as flashlights so the development options for glass are really exciting.
Where do you guys see glass heading?

If the consumer version is anything like the Explorer version we won't need to clean the lenses.
They don't have any.

Have you not seen Wall-E? We will all be riding in rascals with insulin IVs and blind without glasses by the time Google Glass is ready. I'm just looking forward to using it as a HUD to find single ladies

Me after a year with Google Glass.

exciting!
the "original" cache disappeard?
mistery
PLEASE let this alleged hardware issue be the addition of a trackball/trackpad and a better casing than cheap plastic that gizmodo reported.
Let this be a standalone phone and not a Galaxy S with Stock Android.
i think i read on giz that it will be plastic. think i may wait for nexus 3

word...
Google needs some damn designers...lol. People with vision...the Nexus S/2 should looked like the HTC ONE concept some design student mocked up...with a few additions for usability.
You guys know Google doesnt' actually design phones right?
They basically call up sony/htc/apple/samsung and ask what new platforms/devices they have coming up. The respective companies show them a line up, google bids on them, and then they tweak it slightly (color/finish/very minor hw changes).
Cool, so rumour was true I hope it will be released soon...
I really hope it lives up to the nexus name. Not just a galaxy-S running stock android with an unlockable bootloader...
yay! coming soon with Gingerbread. 4 inch screen with trackball please.

The Nexy looks a way lot better than this. Atleast that's my opinion.

Dust between screen and sides

Any ideas on how to protect the space between the screen and front edge of this awesome phone?
The gel case from sprint doesn't cover this gap, and there doesn't seem to be many cases out yet to fit the NS4g.
Is this even something to be concerned with?

ive never had an issues with sides usually can just blow and what ever if anything gets in between usually comes out.
And the screen is fused to the touch glass with adhesive no dust is getting between screen so no worries

The dust gets in the exact same place you referenced with me too, and I always get panicky, but I find that if I try to remove it myself, it just ends up worse somehow. They just seem to dissapear after some time in my pocket though. I'll check a few hours later, and bam, the dust isn't there anymore.

This product looks great to get the dust particles from my pocket out of my devices. Im gonna hit up a couple stores and pick this up, if its not off the wall expensive.

My Galaxy S II is out numbered!!!

Oh boy, so I have been using my Galaxy S II a lot and ignoring the Galaxy S. I guess the SGS got really jealous because it went and got a couple of friends to gang up on the SGS II:

your sense of humor was stolen
sarcasm detector is flaky
3 cores vs 2 cores
have the phones plain stock, no widgets, but customize them with unique cute little pouches
please retake the shot after moving those pens in the upper right corners, I can't clearly see the bank account numbers you have written down on that piece of paper.
I can go on and on
on a second thought, nothing i said is funny time to wrap up work day, I am tired.
Those are passwords mate not bank account details.
Nice bank account details. Thanks.
you may want to check the link!

They got beaten up by the SGS II and it stuffed Gingerbread down their throats and then they went back to their owners. Both were phones that their owners screwed up and wouldn't boot. Two more happy people in the world today.

Some DIY found. Would like some feedbacks.

Hey guys, check this Xperia Arc out.

Some guy in Thailand is doing this as his local business, but since he's charging small to do this, I figured this is something easy and cheap that we could do ourselves. The question is what material is being used to wrap around. Would love to hear some of you guys' feedback. I'm feeling it might be some Teflon tape? Any ideas?
OMFG the pink one is cooooool
also the orange one *-*

From what I see, he did not disassemble the phone at all. It looks like some thin film that goes over the phone.

Yes, you can notice on the hole to pull out the battery, film is over the hole
I want! Hehe. Great to hide those faded marks on my arc
any links for this item?
i want the sides to be all black..
for preventive measure haha
Looks like a very bad job. Look at the edges you can still see the chrome and there are dried up blobs near buttons.

yes but he definitely got the two-tones colours right, especially with the black and orange one, I'm gonna look around online to see if i can get something similar going with my arc.
beautiful ,i like the white/cyan colour.
reminds me of a white/gold combo on some Blackberry sets..
gold anyone?

[Q] can i get this part alone: area with rear camera

Hi XDA'ers
I recently bought a used mt4g, super cheap price.. but i got that i paid for ...
Saddly the previous owner really didn't take care of it, he didnt keep it in a case, so its pretty scratched and dinged up... but i can like with those, BUT the worst part is that the covering for the back camera is scratched up badly....
it seriously affects my camera quality.. very blurry and grainy
I partly blame htc for a design flaw/oversight .. why would they have that as the most protruding part of the back of the phone..it should have been recessed..anyway
this is the part i want

I guess that I will probably have to get a whole new housing, as I haven't seen this part alone online anywhere.
If any one has a bricked phone or old housing not in use and the camera area is good PLEASE let me know if i can get it...
thanks in advance
that is actually part of the center frame piece. you should be able to find it new on ebay or amazon.

i have already check both of the recommended sites... no luck so far...
when u say 'its a part of the center frame' does that mean it can not be separated from the housing or it can be ?
two weeks later and i am still unable to source this part..
