[NTLK] New Version! Einstein for Android 5.1.2013

[Joseph Reilly]

Hey Matthias,
Your awesome! Works as expected on
Motorola Droid Razr Maxx. I have a range
of other lower power devices I'll try to get
it tested on too.
Small bug, the description of the Newton
ID preference is the same as the screen
refresh preference. I'll keep playing.
Thank you!
