Device type poll

[exor674]

In preparation for releasing a preliminary testing version ( best to test a little bit at a time instead of all at once, IMO ) I am trying to figure out what kinda devices people have access to.

I hope to have a testing version uploaded by the end of November at the latest.



Please do not answer this poll if you currently do not have an android device -- and do not answer the Density and screen size question unless you definitively know it in those terms.

Like above, I know what adb logcat is but I've never used it and am not sure I'd trust myself to use it without breaking my phone ... but with a little handholding at the beginning would be willing to try.

(And I attempted to find my size/density basically everywhere -- manual, phone site, Google at large -- and failed.)

I am also aware that it's extremely unlikely that using the debug bridge would break my phone, but I've done some amazingly bad things to technology by trying to work with code just due to sheer bad luck ... my dad does some dev stuff, though, I'll see if he has thoughts on it.

For future reference, you are hdpi, normal

( I hate how damn hard it is to figure that out, I'm gonna have to end up doing a bunch of looking specs up and doing math )

Thank you – and good luck with that. Math sucks.
