Android OS !

I'm still waiting for Nexus 4 to be launched in India.

Maybe you will get the N7.7 with Android 5.0 that comes out in a couple of months.

Yeah read about it but I'm not a tablet fan. A friend of mine is going to U.S in June so I was thinking I should ask him to place the order online and get it when he comes back in July. Long wait!!

I am very fond of SwiftKey, but I do not use the recently added Swype-like sliding across the keys method....can't stand that.

What sources do you have that Android 5.0 is a definite? We won't know for sure until Google I/O this year if any new Android version will surface. Everyone said Android 5.0 will be released on the Nexus 4, but all that happened was Android was upped to 4.2.


In the next wave of handsets, it appears the HTC One may have won this round with Samsung. I watched the Galaxy S4 unveiling, and while it has some nice new features, especially in the camera, the HTC One still seems the nicer handset. It's had some amazing reviews about it, bit annoyed as I'm stuck with my HTC One X until July 2014, lol.

A few days ago there was a Zdnet article that stated that 5.0 will come with N7.7 in a couple of months. No idea from where they got the info.

Judging by this whole thread I need to port idroid to iPod 2g mc. I just got one from my friend And to make things even funnier apple is shutting down all non retna apps. assh0les and not to mention I sent them and pretty convincing email yesterday. So I asked them for an iPod 2g compatable app list and this is what they sent me. Hello, we are sorry for your frustration with the AppStore and we cannot give you a list for the apps you wanted. My advice to you is to go out and buy a new iPod that would defiantly help your problems. Cheers, Apple iPod dev team.
well you may get paid to say that shit but I'm not. Go with android it's phones are much cheaper and it is mostly open source. Not to mention the apps can be made on everything but a Mac (suck on that apple) and the software is mostly free. Android or die!

 

[Dinesh]

That really sucks!

Swiftkey is excellent, I am using the free 1 month trial right now on my lovely new phone I got 2 days ago (Sony Xperia Z) and I will be buying the full version when the trial runs out.

I see that this thread is not used over a year, so I'll post here is anyone from newer member didn't find it.

Most games needs Optimization for example GTA San Andreas wouldn't run on a high-end Androind phone with everything maxed out.

Waiting for Android Lollipop on my Nexus 5. Guess they'll release it on 3rd Nov.

 

[StalkeR]

I'm also waiting for it Dinesh. I was using developer preview, so waiting for the official image.

 

[paulpicks21]

Also looking forward to it on my Xperia Z but it looks like it will be a good few months yet with Sony saying they will begin rolling it out in 2015

I'm also waiting for it Dinesh. I was using developer preview, so waiting for the official image.

Looks like the OTA update starts from today..

 

[StalkeR]

Nothing here. There is no image file on the official site. I'll wait for Wendsday, I read something about releasing the image on that day, so well see.

Also looking forward to it on my Xperia Z but it looks like it will be a good few months yet with Sony saying they will begin rolling it out in 2015

Yes, Sony said that they will update whole Z series with Android Lolipop. Very strange from Sony.

Battery-Draining Bug Delays Android Lollipop Rollout

Battery-draining bugs have reportedly delayed the full rollout of Google's Android 5.0 Lollipop.

The next-gen operating system launched on Monday with the Nexus 9 tablet, and was expected to hit the Nexus 4, 5, 7, 10 and Google Play Edition devices shortly thereafter. But thus far, Nexus owners are still waiting.

Some reports are pointing the finger at a problem with the beta version of Lollipop on Nexus 5 that caused a severe battery-drain issue. Google acknowledged the problem in a forum thread on Wednesday, saying that the company was "aware of an issue affecting Nexus 5 users running Android 5.0 which causes significant 'Miscellaneous' battery usage while Wi-Fi is enabled."

Yes, but after that Google release a fix for that. That was very fast answer from google.

 

[A Guy]

Google later issued a fix. But the bug apparently prompted the company to delay the full Lollipop rollout to other Nexus devices. Nexus users with KitKat will have to wait until Nov. 12 for a Lollipop update, according to ZDNet.
