    Saw the game 'The Room' recommended by a few on here. Great game but can anyone now recommend an alternative while we wait for The Room 2?

    is there an app to block outgoing calls to chosen numbers?

    Not sure if you mean block making the call or block your number been seen for certain numbers.

    If you want to block your number for calls (they see private number)this app lets you put a widget on your screen. You tap it to go private on only the next number you call or tap it twice to go private on all the the following calls. Hit it again and your number will be shown.

    The only one I've tried since I've finished the room is Can You Escape. Not the same but the nearest I could find.
    Haven't looked in a while to see if there is anything else.

    Theres 100 Doors and all its various sequels and add ons, some of the puzzles are totally ridiculous though.

    Broken Sword and its sequel come up on sale often, very good puzzlers, and you're often trapped in a room with a few clues.

    Google Play Magazines appeared on my Galaxy Note 2 overnight. When you try to access the store though, a pop up says that this service is not available in your country. Hmmmm

    Can anybody recommend a good ad blocker? Lots of my apps, namely words with friends and podcast addicts have annoying ads


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I use AdAway but your phone has to be rooted.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    Highly recommend Ridiculous Fishing, great, silly, time waster, only down sides are cost €2.25 from market and eats battery for fun when playing it. Its part of humble mobile bundle at the moment though if you want it. $5.20 to unlock it with the other games. No in app purchases which is big positive for me.

    Definitely grab that Humble Bundle, Kingdom Rush is one of the best tower defence games ever, worth it for that alone.

    Printer Share premium
    turns your printer into a wifi printer. (provided you have your pc or mac on ) works a treat and never had any issues with it. including if i forgot to print something for college, on the way back it would be printed for me and ready to go.

    Hi, can anyone recommend to me a decent Background/Wallpaper app for free?

    I had a few really good ones on my old phone a few years back but now when I look and try some hd background apps they are just terrible 'love hearts' or celebs or half naked women an stuff.

    Any help would be great, thanks.

    zedge is great, loads of quality wallpapers

    500 Firepaper.

    Live wallpaper that pulls images from 500pix.

    Great!

    I'll second Zedge. 500 Firepaper pulls up some great wallpapers too, but then they disappear on you again as it's auto changing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-


    +1 for zedge.
    Also check out droidpapers for all your stock wallpapers.
