KeyChord – Piano Chords/Scales v2.3 (2.3) Android Apk App

KeyChord – Piano Chords/Scales v2.3 
Requirements: Android 1.6+
Overview: The dynamic dictionary/reference app for piano chords and scales!
This new version 2.0 has been featured on the Android Market and made it to the top selling list!!

Keychord is the dynamic dictionary / reference app for piano chords and scales. Use it to find all the scales and chords! Also included is a 5 octave multitouch piano!
In short:
Easy keyboard to lookup and play around with all chords and scales. Lots of chordtypes and scaletypes to choose from. Also reverse lookup and staff view.
Included is the 5 octave scrollable multitouch minipiano with 128 different sounds from Mini Piano Pro.
If you’re missing something, let me hear it.
Features:
- 50+ ChordTypes
- 100+ ScaleTypes
- Note Names
- Component Intervals
- Reverse Chord & Scale Lookup, including Partial Chords
- Inversions
- Staff View
- Favorite and recent Chordtypes
- Hear every Chord and Scale
- Full 5 octave multitouch piano from Mini Piano Pro

In detail:
KeyChord is built around a visual keyboard that you can use to interact with the selected chord- or scaletype. You can for instance tap on a key to make it the root of the chord or you can longpress a selected chordnote to invert the chord to that position. Same goes for scales. Tap a already selected rootnote for different kind of information modes like note-names or intervals.
Everything is dynamic, we don’t use a database to give you a few predefined chord locations, but we know how a chord works and let you select a chord everywhere you want.
To add to the dynamic nature of this app, we also included a reverse lookup, both for chords and scales. Easily select the notes of the chord you have in mind (or have discovered on your piano) and let KeyChord tell you how it’s called. It supports even missing notes (Like CMaj7 (no 5th)).
Audio playback is also enabled in all modes.
As bonus the playable piano from Mini Piano Pro (128 sounds and 5 octaves) is included.

Sprint Galaxy Nexus Rumor: April 15th Release Date

We told you the Sprint Galaxy Nexus was one step closer after it passed through the FCC a couple of days ago. The latest rumor, which s4gru.com says comes from an inside source at Sprint, is that the carrier has decided to release the device on April 15th. That’s a Sunday, which would normally seem like an unlikely day for a phone’s release, but Sprint has been known to do Sunday releases in the past. Also, Sprint’s Galaxy Nexus contest ends on April 14th, along with a few promotions for older WiMax devices, giving some more credence to the rumor.
Other interesting details the source provided centers around the phone’s LTE capabilities. First, the phone will come set to 3G connectivity by default. This makes sense since Sprint’s LTE network will not be anywhere near fully rolled out. A toggle function will be available to switch between 3G and 4G. This can be seen as an advantage since the LTE radio can use more battery power than 3G. Verizon Galaxy Nexus users have been asking for an LTE toggle, so it would be nice to have it built-in by default.
Second, the Sprint Galaxy Nexus will support eHRPD, the protocol used to allow for seamless handoffs between 3G EVDO and 4G LTE. This will be greatly useful while users go in and out of 4G areas during Sprint’s LTE build-out.
I hope these rumors are true. The sooner Sprint releases the Galaxy Nexus, the more likely it will be a successful device for them. If they delay too long, other phones, like the HTC One X, may steal the thunder. Though I am tempted by HTC’s latest, I have to admit the allure of a Google Experience phone may be just too much to ignore[Source]

Best Android Browser

There are some amazing Android browser solutions out there that will enhance your browsing on your Android phone guaranteed.  That being said, there’s no reason you need to download one of these free Android browsers as the default browser will work for you.
Here’s my guideline for whether you should download a new Android browser: if you use the Internet on your phone more than once per week, then you need to download one of these amazing Android browser apps.  That’s the point where it becomes more than just a good idea but an absolutely mandatory decision that needs to be made.
Enough of the small talk, let’s get to the best Android browser apps that you can download for free.  One last thing- as you can see there aren’t that many apps in this article.  The reason being is that there really aren’t that many big players in this niche.  Why?  Well, these aren’t your run-of-the-mill Android apps that can be developed in a day or a week.  These take time and money to create and the testing and refinement periods really never end!  Want another reason?  If you decide to download an alternative Android browser, these are the only ones that you need to consider, PERIOD.  And they’re all 100% FREE to download and use if you haven’t caught that yet!

Skyfire Browser (beta)

Skyfire for Android excels at delivering flash videos for your viewing pleasure.  It also gives you the option to view the desktop or mobile versions of websites- assuming they both exist.  This browser is solid, but not my absolute favorite.  Still, if you’re a video-junkie, this is the must have Android browser.  It displays videos better than any other web browser for Android, but IMO it lacks a bit in other areas.  However, I would absolutely recommend everyone check this out and maybe it’ll be your favorite!

Dolphin Browser™ HD

This is the latest and greatest version of Android’s most popular browser.  So what does Dolphin Browser HD do that the original doesn’t?  They’ve concentrated more on the user experience with this new Android browser.  You’ll be able to navigate much faster throughout the browser with features like swiper through tabs and pinch zoom.  They’ve also decided to upgrade darn near everything that anyone may have taken exception to with the original Dolphin Browser™.  I really could go on for a few pages on the new features and why you should download this free Android browser, but I’ll let you discover all the possibilities yourself.

Opera Mini Web Browser

The Opera browser is solid and it’s one of the two best available right now.  It does everything pretty well and I promise there will be times you’ll completely forget you’re on your phone and not on your home PC.  It’s reliably fast and the data from the sites hardly ever overwhelms your phone.  The display is very simplistic and easy-to-use and overall is a very solid Android browser.
Just like Dolphin Browser, the folks at Opera have released a newer- souped up version of their browser.  Opera Mobile web browser is the extremely new (released just two days ago on November 9th, 2010) beta opera browser app that is going to be the next generation for Opera Android browsing.
This app is sure to be a monster- in time.  I just don’t know if I would jump in right now.  I would definitely keep it on your radar and check it out in a few weeks to see the progress its making.  Most of the bugs will be worked out by then and it will be much more stable.  This is all assuming you’re not a first adaptor- in which case, download this new Opera Android experience now and work it out!
