Description The present invention relates to a print head and more particularly to an array of multiple stylii drivers each of which employs a novel structural arrangement for converting movement of a piezoelectric ceramic wafer into movement of a printing stylus or needle useful in a printing operation. The use of piezoelectric elements for driving printing elements is known in the art, as for instance in U.S. Pat. No. 3,418,427. Such prior art devices characteristically utilize the piezoelectric element as a cantilevered bending element wherein the element is restrained at one end and a stylus or print hammer is secured to the other end. In devices of this type the piezoelectric elements must be long and the driving voltage must be quite high in order to provide sufficient flexure to produce the requisite printing stroke. The resulting structure is heavy, slow in operation and, as a result of the manner in which the piezoelectric elements must be mounted, quite large and bulky. In accordance with the present invention, a print head is provided comprising any desired number of individual stylus driver elements, each circular in configuration so that the driver elements may be stacked coaxially to provide a compact printer head. Each driver comprises a circular piezoelectric ceramic wafer and a beam driven from the center of the wafer to impart movement to the printing stylus or needle. The beam is mounted as a lever with a 4:1 to 7:1 lever arm to reduce movement of the wafer required to provide an acceptable printing stroke approximately 15 to 20 thousandths of an inch, as well as a matching of the driven and driving masses. The wafer may have a d.c. bias voltage applied thereto so as to bow the wafer to the maximum extent possible within the voltage tolerance of the wafer. Such bias is applied to deflect the wafer opposite to the direction required for printing. Upon application of a printing pulse, the wafer is bowed in the printing direction to the maximum extent practicable and the resulting printing stroke and energy are twice that available from an unbiased element. Assuming the wafer has a maximum voltage range of 50 to 80 volts, the bias source voltage is in such range and the printing pulse is of opposite polarity to and twice the voltage of the bias source. Preferably asymmetrical pulse sources are employed and the d.c. bias is not required. The individual printer elements are fabricated from light weight metals and plastics and the total weight of the print head is approximately 2 ounces for a seven stylus head. As a result of the utilization of the above concepts in a print head, print speeds in the range of 300 to 500 characters per scond are realizable, i.e., 1800 to 3000 printing strokes per second in a 5 � 7 font including spaces between characters. Further, all of the elements required in fabrication are readily available and inexpensive so that the total head may be fabricated for well under $100. The head described in the detailed description of the invention comprises seven driver units so that printing may be in accordance with a 5 � 7 print font. It is not intended to limit the present invention to a specific number of driver units per head since it is apparent that the number of such units per head is a function of the end use for which a specific head is designed. A hollow needle is preferably employed as a stylus to provide close spacing between the dots of the font while maintaining an acceptable pressure on the printing surface. It is an object of the present invention to provide a light, fast and inexpensive printer head. It is another object of the present invention to provide a stylus printer comprising a plurality of circular stylus drivers that may be stacked coaxially to provide a compact printer head. It is still another object of the present invention to provide a mechanical advantage for driving a stylus from a piezoelectric wafer whereby the required deflection of this wafer is maintained within acceptable limits. Another object of the present invention is the provision of a novel fulcrum mount and coupling strut for a stylus driving beam whereby undesired displacements of the beam during a printing stroke are minimized and maintenance is virtually eliminated. Yet another object of the invention is to employ a hollow needle as a printing stylus. The above and still further objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent upon consideration of the following detailed description of one specific embodiment thereof, especially when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein: FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view in elevation of two nested beam driver elements of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a front view in elevation of said beam driver element; FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the element of FIG. 2; FIG. 4 is a section view taken along section line 4--4 of FIG. 3; FIG. 5 is an enlarged view in perspective of the stylus driving beam of the present invention with strut 8 attached; FIG. 6 is a detailed view of the piezoelectric ceramic wafer and a schematic diagram of the drive circuits therefor; FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along section line 7--7 of FIG. 3; FIG. 8 is a top view of the print head of the present invention (clamping means omitted). Referring now specifically to FIGS. 1-3 the printing head may comprise seven (only two illustrated in FIG. 1) stylii and stylii driver assemblies, the latter generally designated by the reference numeral 1. Each driver assembly includes a circular housing or base ring 2, a stylus driver arm or Ibeam 3, a beam anchor block 4, preferably of insulating material, a piezoelectric ceramic wafer 6, an insulating support ring 7 for the wafer 6 and a strut 8 connecting the wafer 6 and the beam 3. The housing 2 comprises a hollow cylindrical skirt 9, open at its lower end, as viewed in FIGS. 1 and 2, and terminating at its other end in a transverse annular shoulder 11. The upper surface, as viewed in FIGS. 1 and 2, of the shoulder 11 is stepped to provide horizontal surfaces 12 and 13 and vertical circumferential surfaces 14 and 16. The surface 12 has a radial dimension substantially equal to the thickness of the skirt 9 and serves to receive and support the skirt 9 of the next upper housing 2 of the stack of seven drivers; the wall 14 providing lateral support for such skirt. The surfaces 13 and 16 serve to support and provide lateral stability respectively, for the ceramic wafer support ring 7. Interiorly of the housing 2, the skirt 9 terminates in the shoulder 11 which is recessed at a location designated by reference numeral 17 to provide a circular vertical wall 18 and a horizontal radial wall 19. The wall 19 terminates in a further circular wall 21 defining a central opening in the housing 2. The walls 19 and 21 provide surfaces of location and support for the anchor block 4 as viewed in greater detail in FIG. 4. The anchor block 4 is generally L-shaped in section, as viewed in FIG. 1, comprising upper and lower sections each constituting a segment of a circle. Each of the segments has a radius of curvature corresponding to the radius of curvature of the adjacent walls 18 and 21 of the housing 2. The block is secured in the housing by gluing to the adjacent walls 19 and 21 of the housing. The vertical surface of the anchor block constituting the chord of the segment is designated by the reference numeral 22. The surface 22 is provided with a longitudinal notch or recess 23 defining two beam anchor surfaces 24 and 26, the purpose for which is described subsequently. As a result of the unusually high printing speeds desired to be achieved it is necessary that the beam and its support structure be optimized for minimum deflection in all axes and for vibration. To accomplish the above objectives, the beam 3 (refer specifically to FIGS. 1 and 5) consists of two identical elongated arms 27 and 28 which are identical parts and are "C-shaped" in section. Each arm is fabricated from aluminum foil, supplying sufficient shear stiffness to provide the requisite stability, and is apertured at 29 to reduce inertia. The arms 27 and 28 are secured aligned with each other to form the beam. The arms 27 and 28 taper adjacent their radially external ends to about half the maximum vertical height adjacent the center of the structure. The external ends of the arms 27 and 28 are bent away from each other to provide walls 31 and 32 defining a notch in which a stylus or needle 33 is secured. The upper and lower edges of the arms 27 and 28 carry stiffening flanges 25 and 30, respectively, (see FIGS. 5 and 7) formed by bending the foil from which the arms are fabricated in a plane perpendicular to the height of the arms. Referring again to FIGS. 1 and 5, the flange 25 of arm 27 terminates remote from the part 32, in a trapezoidal-shaped tab 34 terminating in a downwardly inclined tab 36. The flange 30 of arm 27 terminates in a trapezoidal-shaped tab 35 angled upwardly and glued to the bend between the tabs 34 and 36 of the upper part of the arm to stabilize the structure. The tab 36 is secured to the surface 24 of the anchor block 4. The flanges 25 and 30 of the arm 28 terminate in tab structures identical to those of beam 27 so that a tab 37 of arm 28 extends upwardly from the bottom of the arm and is secured to surface 26 of anchor block 4. The flexure structures comprising members 34, 35 and 36 of the I-beam 3 provide several useful features. The tab 35 serves to prevent twist of the flexture 36 and insures uniform distribution of stress across the flexure. The tab 35 further ties each part of the flexure to the entire beam and in conjunction with the associated flanges 25 and 30 insures uniform distribution of stresses throughout the beam. Identical support is provided for flexing tab 37. The tabs 36 and 37 provide a flexible coupling between the beam 3 and the anchor block 4. The symmetry of the coupling arrangement; that is, the use of upwardly and downwardly extending crossed flexures, provides the equivalent of a pivot located approximately where the tabs cross. The spring rate of this flexure is negligible. During printing intervals, the tabs permit pivoting of the beam while restraining longitudinal or vertical movement thereof. Such movement of the beam could produce misalignment of the needles 33 and result in reduced motion of the needles in the desired direction. The structure of the crossed flexures 36 and 37 illustrated in FIGS. 1, 3 etc. is not intended to be limiting and other arrangements may be employed. For instance the crossed flexures need not be integral with the beam and may be fabricated from a different material from the beam and appropriately secured thereto. Lateral movement of the beam 3 is restrained by means of the strut 8 as will be more fully explained subsequently. Referring now specifically to FIGS. 1 and 2, the support ring 7 for the wafer 6 is fabricated from a flexible sleeve of insulating material and is sliced axially at regular small intervals about its periphery to provide a large number of resilient fingers 38 about the upper periphery of the sleeve. The wafer 6 is secured to the inner surface of each of the fingers 38, by gluing or by other suitable means. The aforesaid means of support permits the support to tilt to accommodate cupping of the discs which tilts the periphery of the wafer. The wafer 6 is a sandwich of two wafers. Referring to FIG. 6 of the accompanying drawings, the wafer 6 consists of flat piezoelectric ceramic discs 39 and 41. Each wafer has a conductive coating on each of its flat surfaces; coatings 42 and 43 on disc 39 and coatings 44 and 46 on disc 41. A thin conductive wave like disc 47 is disposed between the coatings 43 and 44 and the entire structure is appropriately bonded to form the unitary body of the wafer 6. Leads 48, 49 and 54 are bonded to coating 42, conductive disc 47 and coating 46, respectively. The discs 39 and 41 are polarized so that upon a voltage of the same polarity relative to lead 49 being applied to the leads 48 and 54, one disc expands radially while the other contracts, thus dishing the assembly of discs 39 and 41. In the mode of operation illustrated in FIG. 6, an asymmetrical drive is employed which relies on the polarizing characteristic of the wafers. The wafers are polarized in the process of fabricating for instance by a 500 volt polarizing voltage of a given polarity. Voltages of, for instance, 200 volts may be safely applied in the polarizing direction in actual use. Voltages of only about 1/10 the polarizing voltage may be applied of the opposite polarity. Thus an asymmetrical square wave pulse source may be employed to provide a high energy printing strobe to the needle 33. In the illustration of FIG. 6, lead 48 is connected via a resistor 56 to an asymmetrical pulse source, schematically diagrammed as a switch 57 which alternately connects resistor 56 to a -250 volt source during a non-print interval and to a +50 volt source during a print interval. Lead 54 is connected via diode 58 to a -50 volt source. A capacitor 59 which is large compared with the capacity across the wafer 6 is connected between leads 48 and 54. In operation, during the non-print interval the upper surface (as viewed in FIG. 6) of element 39 is at -250 volts and the lower surface of element 41 is at -50 volts. When the switch 57 is in the print position the upper surface of element 39 is at +50 volts and the lower surface of element 41 is at +250 volts. Thus the volts across the wafer never exceeds 200 volts while a voltage of a polarity opposite to the polarizing voltage of the elements never exceeds 50 volts; however, the voltage swing on the outer surfaces of the wafer is 300 volts. Thus maximum driving force is achieved without exceeding the allowable tolerances. The above driving circuit is a preferred form of circuit; however, other more conventional driving circuits may be employed, such as symmetrical circuits with or without a non-print bias voltage. As is discussed relative to FIGS. 3 and 7, the mechanical advantage of the beam lever arrangement is approximately 4:1 to 7:1. Desired movement of the needle 33 for printing purposes is 0.015 to 0.020 inch. Thus maximum required movement of the center of the wafer is about 0.002 to 0.005 inch. In the event of use of a biased wafer as described above, required movement of the wafer from its neutral or unbiased position is about 1 to 2.5 thousandths of an inch, a movement readily obtainable with available piezoelectric ceramics; such as, lead zirconatelead titanate discs of reasonable size. Referring again specifically to FIGS. 3 and 7 the strut 8 extends from preferably the center of the wafer 6 to the beam 3 to impart movement of the wafer to the beam. The strut 8 has two upstanding arms 54 and 56 disposed on opposite sides of the beam 3 and secured to the lower flanges 30 of the I-beam structure, as viewed in FIG. 7. The end of the strut 8 secured to the wafer 6 has three tabs 59, 61 and 62 parallel to and secured to the wafer. The flange 61 is directed toward the needle 33 and the flanges 59 and 62 are oppositedly directed. As previously indicated the strut 8 prevents lateral movement of the beam 3, tieing the beam directly to the wafer 6. In operation upon downward movement of the wafer, as viewed in FIG. 1 and 2, the strut 8 transmits such movement to the beam 3. The beam pivots about the virtual pivot existing at the crossover point of the tabs 36 and 37, and moves the needle 33 downward by a distance equal to the movement of the center of the wafer multiplied by the beam ratio. The beam ratio is the distance from the needle to the virtual pivot divided by the distance from the strut 8 to the virtual pivot, in the present applicatiion between 4:1 to 7:1 depending upon the best mass match between the wafer, beam, and needle. In order to form a print head, and reference is made specifically to FIGS. 1 and 8 of the accompanying drawings, the individual units are stacked one above the other with the units rotated relative to one another to the extent necessary to provide a proper array for the desired font, a 5 � 7 font in the example presented. As a result of the small spacing between the center of the needles, 0.015 inch, the distance from the needle 33 (4) at the center of the array in FIG. 8 to the needle 33 (1) is 0.045 inch. If the beam is 0.5 inch long, the projection of the needle 33(1) on the beam 3 of needle 33(4) is about 0.497 inch and thus misalignment of the aray of needles from the center to either end is slight, and since the needles 33 are somewhat flexible, they may be passed through a straight line of apertures in a die plate 64 to provide exact alignment of the needles. Such an arrangement readily permits arrays of 10 or more needles. Large arrays may be obtained by aligning the stylii from two print heads, each head arrayed on opposite sides of the line of stylii or needles, as illustrated in dotted lines in FIG. 8. Further it may not be convenient to use a seven high stack of elements in which case two stacks of 3 and 4 elements may be employed arranged on the opposite sides of the line of stylii. Other arrays of elements are possible requiring slightly longer beams but flexibility in the choice of beam ratios permits such modifications. The stylus 33 may be fabricated from sapphire but preferably is a hollow needle. In order to provide sharp clean data a predetermined pressure must be achieved and thus the area of the end of the needle is a function of the energy that can be developed by the wafer-beam assembly. In the present invention, the area of the needle that must be utilized is relatively small and the dots are relatively widely spaced; an undesirable feature in a dot printer. In accordance with the present invention, such undesirable feature is overcome by using a hollow needle, such as a small diameter hypodermic needle. The diameter of such a needle is greater than a solid stylus and reduces the spacing between dots to a more desirable opening. The center hollow circle is so small as to be virtually invisible to the naked eye and the area of the needle and thus pressure applied to the printed surface is maintained at the same level as with a solid stylus. Referring again to the structural details of the apparatus of the present invention, where bonding or gluing is indicated a non-conductive epoxy cement may be employed. In many instances non-conductive elements may be replaced with conductive members if care is taken to provide insulation between parts by means of the epoxy and porous spacing webs. The print head desribed above including seven stylii and drivers weighs about 2 ounces and may readily be transported across a page at high speed to permit printing in the range of 300 to 500 characters per second or higher. The inertia of the head is so small that no difficulties are encountered in high speed start and stop of the head at the beginning and end of lines respectively. Further, the travel of the needle, 15 to 20 thousandths of an inch, is sufficient to permit one or more carbon copies to be made in a single printing operation. The bias voltage required, 50 to 80 volt and switched pulse voltage of 200 to 300 volts, are readily obtainable ad presents no technical or economic barriers to implementation of the apparatus. The reference to vertical reciprocation of the stylii is not intended to be limiting but is used only for convenience of explanation. The light weight of the structure permits positioning for horizontal operation and operation in other planes. While I have described and illustrated one specific embodiment of my invention, it will be clear that variations of the details of construction which are specifically illustrated and described may be resorted to without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

A connectionless service is a concept in data communications used to transfer data at the transport layer (layer 4) of the OSI model. It describes the communication between two nodes or terminals in which data is sent from one node to the other without first ensuring that the destination is available and ready to receive the data. A session connection between the sender and the receiver is not required, the sender just starts sending the data. The message or datagram is sent without prior arrangement, which is less reliable but faster transaction than a connection-oriented service. User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is a connectionless protocol, while Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a connection-oriented network protocol.
Connectionless service means that a terminal or node can send data packets to its destination without establishing a connection to the destination. This works because of error handling protocols, which allow for error correction like requesting retransmission. LANs are actually connectionless systems with each computer able to transmit data packets as soon as it can access the network.
The Internet is a large connectionless packet network in which all packet delivery is handled by Internet providers. TCP adds connection-oriented services in addition to IP when required. TCP can provide all the top level connection services required to ensure proper data delivery.

Urvashi Vaid, attorney and longtime gay rights activist. She is the former executive director of the Arcus Foundation and the former executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.
A federal judge has ruled the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy toward gay and lesbian members of the military is unconstitutional. Judge Virginia Phillips said she will issue an injunction that will halt the enforcement of the policy that allows gay men and lesbian to serve in the armed forces as long as they do not disclose their orientation and do not engage in homosexual acts. [includes rush transcript]
This is a rush transcript. Copy may not be in its final form.
JUAN GONZALEZ: A federal judge has ruled the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy toward gay and lesbian members of the military is unconstitutional. In her decision, Judge Virginia Phillips wrote the policy, quote, "infringes the fundamental rights of United States service members in many ways." Judge Phillips said she will issue an injunction that will halt the enforcement of the policy that allows gay men and lesbians to serve in the armed forces as long as they do not disclose their orientation and do not engage in homosexual acts.
AMY GOODMAN: We're joined on the phone by Urvashi Vaid, an attorney, longtime gay rights activist, executive director of the Arcus Foundation, former executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.
Welcome to Democracy Now! Can you talk about this late-breaking ruling yesterday, Urvashi?
URVASHI VAID: Thank you, Amy. It's really significant and wonderful to see the vindication of what so many service members and experts on the military have been saying, that this policy, the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, needs to go, because it has no relationship to any legitimate government interest and because it's discriminatory. I read the decision, and the findings were unequivocal, that based on the Fifth Amendment and the First Amendment, the court found that this is unconstitutional. What's wonderful about it is that she rejects, the judge rejects, the longstanding arguments, very carefully rejects them, that somehow gay service members inhibit the preparedness of the military, that openly gay service members inhibit military readiness. There has been reams of data about refuting this contention, but the contention has been made again and again by members of Congress and members of the Pentagon who support this policy, despite the evidence of other militaries around the world where openly gay service members are serving and have served with no problem to the preparedness or unit cohesion of those militaries, despite the evidence of decades of studies from the RAND Institute, from the Defense Department itself, which were recited in this opinion.
AMY GOODMAN: So you have this unusual —-
URVASHI VAID: So it's a positive opinion -—
AMY GOODMAN: Urvashi, you have this unusual situation where you have the Log Cabin Republicans, largest gay Republican political organization, suing the government.
URVASHI VAID: Yep.
AMY GOODMAN: Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Admiral Mike Mullen ask Congress to repeal the law. Obama says he's not for "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," though they could very well be appealing this decision.
URVASHI VAID: Yes. And I think that's very problematic for the Obama administration. I think the politics of the situation, you know, are now up entirely. In May of 2010, the House of Representatives passed an amendment introduced by Congressman Murphy in which they said that the policy should be eliminated, that gay people should be allowed to serve openly in the military. It passed 234 to 194 in the House back in May. The Senate has not scheduled a vote. Senator Reid has refused to schedule a vote. And now there's a new campaign to urge him to schedule a vote on the Senate side of this bill this September, in the next couple of weeks, because the Senate's running out of time before they go on break. And the administration has said that it opposes the policy, and Secretary Gates has said he opposes the policy, but they have commissioned a working group, a Pentagon working group, to study the policy, and its recommendations are going to be submitted on December 1st.
So, everybody is kind of punting a little bit, and I think what this decision gives the administration the will power to — the muscle — what's the word I'm looking for? — the backup to do is to stand by its convictions and say, "Look, the majority of the country is against this policy. The House has passed it. Many people on both sides of the aisle say this is time for this chestnut to go," as Cheney said many years ago. He called it a bit of an old chestnut, I think, and then proceeded to enforce it. I think it's time for the Obama administration to really direct the Justice Department to not do this.
AMY GOODMAN: Urvashi Vaid, we want to thank you for being with us, attorney, longtime gay rights activist. She's executive director of the Arcus Foundation. Thank you so much.

The poster is evidently printed on a high earmark paper, and this unit has a splendid slick overall sheen to it. The exceptional quality and makes a awesome gift for fellow Lachmowe Posters.

The Fight Fight II king is : "Ccasper" he was the first to beat this game on hard!
… (Non death glitch Fixed : I hope!!)- it has, way more skins, (more than double) 4 hit combos now, difficulty levels, a spa option, and more backgrounds. Finish on Medium with a character to unlock a new skin, or on easy just to read my babble, or hard to unlock all skins at once.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
wow the creators of this game should be proud i meen you get a good selection of charactors and i like it also because u get a pretty good amount of health.

I had flashed the CSC file MULTI-OXXJK2 from samfirmware to my tab. After flashing, when I press *#*#44336#*#* to check firmware version, the CSC is displayed as "unknown". When I use *#272*IMEI#, the only sales code i see is "XSG".
Can anyone explain why the CSC is displayed as unknown? Also, if I wish to flash an Asian CSC file, which file should I use and where can I find the download link? I live in Singapore and would prefer to have an Asian CSC file and a Singapore sales code for me to choose.

The December 2014 issue of the Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports (JQAS) covers topics in American football, soccer, golf, and fly-fishing.
The White House Office of Management and Budget finalized in late November a new federal statistical policy directive, Fundamental Responsibilities of Federal Statistical Agencies and Recognized Statistical Units.
Our 175th year is coming to an end, and with that come two temptations. One is to look forward to the 200th anniversary, 25 years from now. The other is to look backward at the past 175 years and assess what we have accomplished. Here, column editor Steven Stigler takes the shorter view and predicts what the future will offer the ASA in 2039.

Cairo is also the most popular cities in Africa with a population of about 8 million in 2005. Its inhabitants are aptly called the Masraweya people. Today, Cairo's official name is Al-Qahira or Cairo.

The only bugs It works well with the att galaxy s2 but with the galaxy note and skyrocket the camera light turns on during a call, by far one of the most brilliant apps on the market!

Nice power/lock button flashlight Seriously, far more convenient than lockscreen ones... I just wish one could choose if he wants to use screen and/or LED :)
Faisal Alkhayyal
Service auto start doesn't work When I restart my phone the power button doesn't work unless I start the app manually. HTC one M8

Flash not working Nexus 5 flash doesn't turn on. Also a setting to make it the flash on the camera only and screen would be nice. After these I would rate 5 stars.

Best torch app What u want from a torch. Quick access! Ideas for update. Option to leave screen off to save power and an auto time limit before turning off light (incase it's done by accident in pocket)

Awesome Turns on LED when I press power button 3 times. But the light flashes n doesn't stay on constantly. Works great otherwize

Can be great When this thing works its great, but it force closes too much and needs to be reopened every time it needs to be used, making it useless. Evo 4g
Decent When it works, it works very well. Two changes I would make: 1) Have a setting to turn on or off each source of light (LED and screen) for future use. 2) Have better click recognition. The vast majority of the time I triple click it doesn't work, and I've tried many different click speeds. Note 2 on Sprint
Didn't work on razr Triple click didn't work. LED never came on. Only got screen glow once.
Not for Galaxy Note 2 Don't get me wrong, the app works... But the problem is that it *also* works when you don't want it too, like when you set down the phone, turn the screen on using anything other than the power button or just randomly blinks for no reason. Tried un/re-installing and no luck. Stock TW setup.
Great idea This is an awesome app for the most part. I was getting a lot of forced closes on my HTC One X LTE until I converted it to a system app using Titanium Backup. The only feature I'd like to see added is the option to disable the screen. Having a bright white screen between you and the object you are trying to illuminate is somewhat counterproductive.
What's New

This app is brought to you by Master Scott Stratten at UnMarketing.com. Stop Marketing. Start Engaging.
Power Switch Pro
Power Switch is a tool for devices with cases - somewhat like the SmartCover, it will turn off the screen when you shut the case.
If you have a device with poor battery life, Power Switch can save tons of juice by switching it off entirely after a given amount of time asleep.
- Sleep seconds after shutting case
- Automatic shutdown (root only)
- Set up a schedule using Night Mode
- Configure sensor sensitivity
- Facedown to turn screen off
- Uses almost no power in single sensor mode
The app has gone through an extensive testing process at XDA Developers. Thanks to everyone who helped make it happen, you're the best.
ADMIN PERMISSIONS are required to manipulate the screen state without root.
Keywords: root, rooted, tool, system, power, save, power saver, screen off, no lock, automatic shutdown, quick shutdown.
Power On Volume (Button Fix)
Power On Volume (Button Fix) is an app designed for phones and tablets with faulty or broken power buttons.
If your tablet or phone's power button is starting to fail, stop using it and get this app!
Using Power On Volume you can wake up your tablet or phone and power on your screen using the physical volume keys on your tablet or phone instead of using a faulty power button.
Tests showed up to 72% reduction in battery drain compared to previous versions. Battery drain varies by device type and can still be an issue on some devices.
Using Power On Volume you can power off the screen, lock the screen, and enter power saving sleep mode using three options:
* Waving your hand in front of your device's proximity sensor (if supported).
* Long pressing the search button (on devices with a search key).
* Pressing a Power Off shortcut icon from your home screen.
* Pressing the Power Off button in the Power On Volume app.
* Pressing a Power Off notification in the notification bar.
The long press search button feature is fully configurable. You can enable and disable this feature, and you can also select other apps to be launched when you long press the search button if they support this feature (such as the Google Voice Search app).
The Power Off shortcut icon can be selected from 16 beautiful HD Power Off icons.
The Power Off feature is compatible with all current versions of Android. Unlike many other apps available, the Power Off function will never turn the screen back on unpredictably like other similar apps are known to do when run on Android OS versions 4.0.4 or 4.1.1.
When the Power Off Proximity function is enabled (on supported hardware), you can turn off your device by waving your hand in front of the proximity sensor or by placing your device face down, putting it in a pocket, etc. Any action that covers the front will turn off your device. The Power Off Proximity function won't turn off your phone during calls or when the phone is ringing. The Power Off Proximity function doesn't consume any power when disabled or when the screen is off, saving precious battery life.
The root features require a rooted tablet or phone. If you don't know was root is, you probably don't have a rooted tablet or phone.
* Hot Boot: restarts the android GUI (if supported by your rooted system).
* Power Long Press: emulates long pressing the hardware power button.
* Reboot: reboots the device (if supported by your rooted system).
* Reboot Recovery: reboots the device into recovery mode (if supported by your rooted system).
* Shutdown: completely powers down your device
The Hot Boot, Reboot, and Reboot Recovery features rely on busybox and therefore work on most but not all rooted systems. Support for these features depends on the version of busybox installed, and how your rooted system is configured.
* This app cannot power on your tablet or phone's screen if it's not in sleep mode. If it is completely shut down, it is impossible for apps to run. Because this is an app, your tablet or phone must be in sleep mode for it to be able to power on the screen.
* This app cannot reboot a tablet or phone that is not rooted.
* This app cannot completely power off a tablet or phone that is not rooted.
This app version was tested on ICS, Gingerbread, Honeycomb and Jellybean Android OS versions using select Samsung, Arnova, and Craig phones, tablets, and netbooks and runs well. Some phones/tablets might not work properly with this app. If you experience any problems please contact me for support.
Use the app's built-in "Uninstall" button for an easy uninstall. Uninstalling by other methods can fail.
If you contact me for support and I cannot get the app to work on your tablet or phone after a few attempts I will give you a full refund when requested.
Volume Button
This app provides you an alternative option to control the phone volumes via on-screen touch buttons. It gives you access to volume adjustment as convenient as the hardware buttons so you can lengthen the lifetime of the hardware buttons or do without them. The hardware volume keys do not last forever: mine are no longer functional. If your volume keys are gone as well, this app will re-enable your phone to serve you like it did before. Also, this app includes no unreasonable permissions or annoying ads. So try this now risk-free: I will refund in full at your request!

1. Easy and ubiquitous access to volume control from status bar shortcut (available on all system versions) and direct control (available for HoneyComb+ due to system limitations) to small 1x1 widget.
2. Simple, functional, and elegant design of both layout and code: the app is consistent with the look-and-feel of your system and the size is tiny.
3. No nonsensical permission demand, no ads, it only does what you expect.
4. Enable fine control over every individual volume streams (more detailed than those offered in System Settings).
5. Fine-tuned compatibility for a wide range of devices. I spent a lot of time getting all layouts and capabilities right for every supported Android versions and screeen sizes.
run at startup: used to start a status bar shortcut/compact control after your phone starts up (so you don't need to). This feature can be turned on or off in settings.
Power Button to Volume Button
If your Android's power button is broken then this app is for you!
With this really nifty app running on your Android, you can use the volume button instead of the power button to wake up your device!
Totally free, no annoying ads!
Please note that you may experience a power drain on the battery. This comes with the territory of keeping your device awake at all times in order to enable the volume button to perform the power button function. With recent updates to the Android operating system - this is the only way to do it.
If this app is run without the screen off setting, then the long term behavior of this app becomes unpredictable, as it is subject to the operating system's whims to reclaim memory. We recommend that you enable the 'screen off in notification bar' feature if you plan to use the app for long periods of time.
Power Menu
I wanted a one click method of going to download and/or recovery mode on my phone, So figured I'll write my own application to do so.
Options provided:
Reboot: Restarts the phone.
Recovery: Restarts the phone into recovery.
Download: Restart the phone in download mode.
Bootloader: Restarts to bootloader mode.
Hot Boot: Restarts the Android GUI processes/threads. (required busybox)
Shutdown: Shuts down the phone.
The application needs just 1 permission:
** This application will require root access(SuperUser and busybox). It works on my Galaxy SIII(TouchWiz Rom). I'm not responsible for any damage because of the use of this application. Again: Do not download if you don't want to**
***This application is not an replacement for the stock power menu***
SPoB - Soft Power Button
Now you can easily power on your device simply moving your finger over the proximity sensor!
You can choose your preferred settings* for SPoB to avoid any annoying situation (like disable SPoB if in landscape mode when texting, if a specific app is executing or if the phone is in a pocket**).
SPoB also offers a useful widget that allows you to activate and deactivate the service quickly with one touch without opening the app.
Take a look at the app stats and count how many times you skipped the physical power button. You won't miss it anymore!

Gravity Screen - On/Off
It turns automatically the screen off when you put your phone into your pocket or onto a table. And turns the screen on when you take it out or up. No need to touch any button and you are ready to go. It's especially helpful if your lock key is hard to reach or the power button is broken.

The most popular screen on/off app. Reviewed by LifeHacker, MakeUseOf, TheNextWeb and many others ...
• Pocket Sensor: Turns the screen off if your phone is in your pocket.
• Table Sensor: Detects your phone is lying on a table and turn it off if not in use.
• Turn Screen On by Motion: If the screen is off and it's facing up the device can be woken up by moving it.
• Keep Screen On by Motion: It keeps the screen on while you are watching the screen. It relies on the small movements of your hand while holding the device.
• Smart Lock support: It's a workaround to make the Smart lock feature work fine on devices with Lollipop.
• Locale plug-in for: Tasker, Llama and others
• Wider range in Table Sensor
• Turn Screen On by Motion Timeout can be set above 15 minutes
• Exclude Apps option (except Lollipop): Gravity screen is paused while selected app is running
• Widgets, PowerToggles plug-in
VERSIONS: FREE vs. PRO vs. UNLOCKED by IN-APP PURCHASE (recommended)
In the Pro version:
• there is no 15 minutes limit for turning the screen on by motion.
• Table sensor can be set more precisely.
Unlocked version has everything what Pro has, plus it has:
• Exclude App list (except Lollipop)
• more advanced Delayed lock option
• Widgets.
It should be not significant. I experienced about 6 per cent extra consumption on the test device. However it can be much higher by often using the Turn Screen On by Motion feature. Thus, keep your phone face down if you want to save energy.
Where is the Pro version? I cannot find it on Play Store
The Pro version is discontinued unfortunately, due to security reasons.
To change to the Unlocked version, please, do the followings:
- unlock the Free version by In-app Purchase
- send me the two purchase numbers or the two receipts you got from Google Play (Pro and Unlocked)
- and I'll refund the purchase of the Pro version
Sorry for the inconveniences.

Bluetooth gun fight for 2 players. The fastest one to draw the revolver and shoot his opponents wins.
Back in the old violent wild west, cowboys called each other for a face off in the city square. It started with the famous countdown, followed by a scene in which the faster one to move for his hip holster, draw and shoot - wins.
The Cowboys game let you and your friends gun-fight with each other, using two Android phones and Bluetooth communication.
You could also practice your skills alone in a single player mode, in which you draw your revolver and shoot as fast as you can - versus your personal record.
Features :
1. Bluetooth Gun-Fight against your friends (2 players)
2. Practice Quick-Drawing your revolver and shooting as fast as you can (1 player)
Nexus 6 Stock Alert
Maor Z
Added Nexus 6 Alerts! Good luck!
Please be aware that when phone is in sleep-mode the app might not check on some devices.
The logic this app uses scans the Nexus product page and that is how I got my previous Nexus. It has also been verified with other Nexus products and international play store pages. HOWEVER, IF GOOGLE MODIFIES THEIR PRODUCT PAGE IN AN UNEXPECTED WAY - THE LOGIC MIGHT NOT WORK. Due to the huge demand for the app and the traffic it causes on their website, please be aware! (if such modification will appear - I will update the logic as soon as possible)
Many users asked which play store is checked. The answer is: your local one. For example, if you are in Germany it will be the German store; if you are UK it will be the British store; etc.
-Tired of hitting the refresh button in your web-browser?
This app will notify you as soon as Google puts the Nexus 4 devices back on sale.
The application is a free download.
Warning: This app uses at least 150MB per month for the frequent checks! Unlimited data package is recommended.

I do not believe Springtrap is from the other games.
Let's take a close look at Springtrap ...
