APP IDEA (freaky one too)

You could test your friends/significant other/family/etc and see if they look at your messages/etc...

Use the accelerometer/light sensors to detect when the phone has been picked up, and start vibrating and making a deafening alarm noise... only to be unlocked with a special code/pattern/etc.

I would love a program like that, because it would teach people to respect your privacy. Plus it would be outright fun.

That's a whole other idea entirely, but an interesting one.


I had another idea for this: When your phone gets hot from the long periods of heavy cpu utilization, maybe we could add little panting noises. I'm thinking WALL-E sounds would be perfect LOL

haha, panting, or screaming sounds would be awesome... "I'm on fire!!!"

with the Touch Pro, though, that would happen during normal use

Giving these phones a heartbeat? The evolution of "AI" continues.

I could see some noob posting a new thread talking about the new "issues" he/she is having with their phone after using a defibrillator on it after the heartbeat stopped.

No thxs. My battery already has a lifespan of 2 hours on max use. Adding that will most likely give me 30 minutes of use.

^^ plus one for that, was wondering when someone would mention the poor battry life

[ScrapMaker]

I guess all the people that claim their battery lasts TWO days, and that their TPs are flawless aren't going to stop by this thread and have a chat?

I just thought the idea was cool, but clearly I would never use it, unless it alerted me of a critical situation.

Imagine if it vibrated/beeped to let you know that your TP got so hot that it stopped charging? or perhaps it could beep louder and louder the closer you get to that point?

[chronster]

well i think someone asked about that in another thread: An alarm at overheating. My idea wouldn't exactly be functional at all, just trying to make your phone feel more "alive."

[Exil3d]

More alive? Be glad we have a intact Pro at least! Poor vzn Pro users got a half dead phone right out the box.

Haha! Were you high when you came up with this? :P

What if you take it further and use the accelerometer to somehow take your pule and bloodpressure if you were to sit the phone on your wrist. Now thats what I would call useful.
