Android Slow Down

Monday, August 10th, 2009

This weekend I had a really slow phone.

It turns out that after a load of browsing and application stalling, I had 0 memory left on the phone. Subsequesntly, the phone ran like a dawg and the best solution was to wipe out the browser cache and uninstall a couple of useless unused apps

The long awaited RC9

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Well, happy as can be that my phone has decided to update to RC9.

Now I’ll be able to find my friends using their Nokias, SEs and windows mobiles running google latitude.

I’ll be able to use by Bluetooth headphones I got for my old SE W880i

I might even use the voice dialling while I’m driving so I don’t kill myself and others trying to find contacts in the phone book.

Well, it looks like I may have to wait a little longer or indefinately, as the update contains nothing which will improve my phone experience.

Latitude is in Google Maps app, but is disable for UK (and europe?) users.

I’ll have to still use the wired, too big for my ears headphones which came with the phone as stereo bluetooth isn’t enabled.

And look out if you see me staring at my crotch when I’m driving, as voice activation hasn’t arrived.

On the plus side, The Market now tells me when applications have updates. A bit like aTrackDog app. So good for me, not so good for the aTrackDog developers.

PicPush App

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

I installed PicPush the other day.

The app uploads photos to your selected social photo site such as flickr.

I’m still getting to grips with it as it will upload all photos. This is a bit annoying as I don’t really want to upload blurry pictures (as the G1 camera is so slow, or the accidental shots of my pocket.

Astrid App

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

I’m not the most organised person in the world.

However, I’ve been using Astid to organise, well list the thing I need to do.

Now I spend more time writing down what needs to be done instead of doing any of them, but the though is there.

There have been a couple of useful reminders, such as, File my Tax Return, book ski holiday, etc.

WpToGo

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

Although the android browser works fine with wordpress, I’m using wpToGo as there are somethings which are easier… if you are reading this post it is working fine too!
