I mentioned before that I am a big culprit of downloading apps and never using them. Recently I decided to change that by starting to use Mint.com and Evernote. I spoke about my experience with Mint.com here, but let me tell you now about my new life saver, Evernote.

Evernote is like the junk draw of your smartphone. You can leave yourself notes, create lists, upload pictures, and share them with multiple people. I love that you can access it through phone, tablet or computer. It allows me to update with ease and quickly recall an old thought anywhere, anytime.

I can organize all my random thoughts throughout the day in one place. I used to quickly jot down ideas on a paper, but that paper can easily get lost on my desk. That piece of paper is also not in my back pocket when I’m on the train or when I get home from work. When I’m away from my desk, my phone is in my back pocket so I can edit, add to and access my thoughts at any time!

I use Evernote for work and in my personal life. Here are some of the notes I’ve created so far…

• Blog Ideas – I keep a list of inspirations to write about here at Ask the Young Professional for you guys!
• Books to read – I post links here from amazon, reviews from blogs and lists of recommendations from friends
• Movies and TV to watch – I like to make a list of the shows up for nomination or that I see a traler for so I don’t forget about them in my busy life
• Music to download – I hear a song I like on the radio, Pandora, iHeart Radio or Shazam a song on the street, I put it here
• Photos and snapshots sent to me by friends
• To do lists – I have one for work and outside of work
• Places I want to visit - restaurants, parks, events, landmarks… There’s been too many times I forgot what recommendations someone gave me, this list helps me to actually make it to these places!
• Budget and Goals – I made a list of all the budget decisions and goals I’ve made for myself because before I would write them down in a notebook, but I would never have that notebook on hand when I needed to remember!

There are a lot of different text formats as well. So you have more options with your text than with apps like the iPhone Notepad. My favorite, the check box. Instead of just make a bullet list, like the one above, I can put a check box next to items and actually check them off when completed.

There are so many different uses for this app. This is just what I’ve started with over the last week or so. I’m sure I will put this app to use even more in the future.

Do you have Evernote? What other apps do you like?

With the Android community starting to really explode now, we are noticing more and more developers are contributing to it. Now im not going to vouch for any rom as being 100% perfect, as I feel nothing is when looked at from a macro level, but I will say the risks of some glitches here and there are worth it to remove that bloated firmware we call stock. With all this being said, I would like to caution a BIG WARNING and say please research everything you download that’s from an unkown source and BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP that original ROM on your SD card, EXT SD card and your computer. I can never stress it enough, this will save yourself a load of time and headaches if anything were to go wrong.

Now the disclaimer is out of the way onto the fun stuff!

Choosing the right ROM:

When it comes to the right Rom choice it can get kinda of confusing. Majority of people will claim one ROM is better than the other, and with some features that could be true but that is not always the case.

CyanogenMod-

CyanogenMod is the leading Developers when it comes to the Android ROM community. These ROM’s are the foundation of most of the relevant ROM’s on the internet today, with most of the other developers taking the builds they make and adding their own features to it. The stable versions of their ROM’s are the best bet, because they do release a lot of nightlies that are unstable and should only be used it you enjoy beta testing. They may not be the main source of “Vanilla” ROM later in the life of Android developers, but at the time of this post they are. Visit their site HERE

LiquidSmooth-

LiquidSmooth has been my go to ROM for the last few months, I have only just switched to another that I will state later in this post. With LiquidSmooth, you get the best of CyanogenMod with some added tweaks and benefits of their own. If you are looking for a stable ROM to check out I highly suggest going to their website  @  HERE . Just make sure you download a stable version from their website and refrain from trying the nightlies, unless of course you are comfortable doing so.

AOKP-

AOKP is actually my ROM in use right now, during the date of this post. I installed it last night so my opinions will be short and vague. Right away you will notice that besides the boot menu (which you can disable in majority of ROM’s for faster boot), that in the settings a few more features are added that the liquidsmooth didn’t have and that was ROM Control. Now I could be mistaken, and please send me a correction if I am. With the Rom controls you can tweak your devices a bit more to gain battery life and a faster CPU, but like everything else this dose not go without applying the warning I issued at the start of the post. Visit their site HERE (WARNING: PINK UNICORNS WILL ATTACK)

*****************************************************************************************************************************

Each ROM has an area to do some customizations, its finding the ROM that gives you the options and tweaks you want that can take a little more time.

ONTO THE CAMERAS

Now that we have discussed a bit about the ROM options you might encounter we can get to loading up duel cameras. This is actually extremely easy to do, all it takes is a Custom ROM like I stated above, make sure its a build from cyenogenMod to ensure the true HDR camera is available. Other Roms may include it, I know however at the time of this post that those ROM’s above do include it.

The next thing you will need to do is download the Photosphere Zip file, it’s located here HERE  This is a link to the original thread in XDA, just scroll down to 4.2 camera in the first post and download it. To install you will need to boot into Clockwork Recovery by powering off your device and then holding the power button, volume up button and the home button at the same time.

Install zip from SD and find the camera zip you just downloaded. You can download the zip directly to your phone. I recommend copying the file to your ext SD card so you don’t have to search for it late rif something happens.

And that’s it, just reboot and you will notice your original camera and gallery are still there and another identical version is next to it in your app drawer. Just open on up and find out which has the true HDR or Photosphere and you might want to give each camera its unique folder or icon to help solve the problem of knowing which is which.

You can also boot both cameras up and switch between them without having to reload them, and that is pretty amazing if you are on travels trying to take photos without hassling through your phone.

If anyone has any feature you would like to share or helpful opinions please write a comment. Ill add the ones that seem more suitable for users to understand without much risk.

This post is intended for a ROOTED phone and is mixed with some personal opinions as to a ROM preferences. But the files given in this post are from reliable sources either directly or from a trusted source such as XDA.

HTC have denied that they have any plans to launch a HTC One Google Edition smartphone, the handset would come with stock Android, and now it appears there is more evidence of the device’s existence.

It is possible that the HTC One Google edition could be released this summer, and apart from running stock Android, the device would share the same specifications as the existing HTC One.

The HTC One comes with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, and it features a 4.7 inch full HD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and 468 pixels per inch, processing is provided by a quad core 1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor.

Other specifications on the HTC One include 2GB of RAM and a choice of either 32GB or 64GB of built in storage, it also uses HTC’s new Ultrapixel camera, which features an f/2.0 lens.

While preparing this post I was listening to Bauhaus – Burning from the Inside. I felt appropriate.

‘Running without aim
Through the razor weeds
That only reach my knees
And when I’m lying in the grey sleep
I don’t know how to walk the boards’
