I don't use it to flow anymore, I always preferred tapping my way to my words.
[b]Holy fuck.[/b] So it happened. [highlight]ICS for the Optimus 2X is out.[/highlight] Just 415 days after ICS release.

Uggh, I am seriously desperate for some ebook solutions to come to Denmark, or just a proper .epub reader. I'd buy loads of books on Google Play if it were available.
Apples ibooks is very good, and has a danish store. Why can't Google do the same thing?
kindle?
I'm having some problems with the camera on my Xperia V. What is causing the "jumping" together with the "green stripes"?

Apple's store is heavily censored though, and they don't like it when publishers point out their flaws.

Electrostatic interference causing problems with the camera, a lot of cameras get this, even mine.
What is causing the interference?
My friends get issues with their speakers buzzing when their phones are placed near them. I've never had it happen so it was strange. You can even tell when it's a text or a call coming in because the buzz is slightly different. Probably a combo of the phone + horrible speakers = interference.

I've never found a book I can't get on it. Do you know any that have been changed or pulled?
[QUOTE=xmariusx;38741708]What is causing the interference?[/QUOTE]
Any other electronic, like your laptops, computer stuff, all sorts of interference. Hell, when I get a call my speakers on my computer table pick them up sometimes. If you get these problems outside of your house, like in a park or something, i think something's wrong with the camera and you should probably RMA it.
youve never got a buzz in any of your speakers when you get an incoming call/text?

Never. Not with ANY of my phones on EDGE, CDMA, UMTS, or LTE.
ive had that with all my phones with spealers everywhere,doesnt matter if its expensive speakwers or anything
That's so weird. I feel left out of the magical buzzy speaker club.
I've only got it when my phone switches to EDGE mode.

A somewhat local e-book about the Hippie culture (including tasteful nudity) got pulled, even after they censored the naught bits with red apple's (:v:).
And when they later went to the press about it, Apple pulled [B]ALL [/B]their E-books in response.
Apparently Apple don't like criticism.
Got some sources as well, but they're in Danish:

I'll take your word for it.
So I went onto this thread [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935982[/url] and the new changelog said
[QUOTE] Format HD Video Recording changed to MPEG4 from H264 for better performance Smooth[/QUOTE]
My understanding is that the dev changed it to MPEG4 Part 2 (based on a screenshot in the thread) from H264 which is MPEG Part 10. So basically the dev switched to a lower level version of MPEG compression making it worse? The bitrate for this mod was bumped up to 14Mbps from 6Mbps which is nice but wouldn't using MPEG Part 2 make it lower quality compared to MPEG Part 10?

Since samsung kies won't let me get jellybean I downloaded the file off here:

How do I use the files (comes with a .dll and .md5 file) and put them onto my cellphone?
[QUOTE=PyroCF;38742644]You're doing the equivalent of trying to calculate pi on a potato[/QUOTE]
It's actually not that hard, you just need a bunch of wires, logic gates and a screen.

Never heard of that website, I personally use: [url]http://www.sammobile.com/[/url]
That said, you need odin:
[url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703998[/url]
On your phone, enable usb debugging
Connect phone to pc through usb
on your pc, open task manager and kill all kies processes (kiespldr, kies, kiestrayservice etc)
start odin, press pda, open the md5, and press start

Family Locator? Dear god no.
Is there any way I could get Find My Device back?
That's so utterly awful. Carriers here don't do that kind of crap like blocking tethering or stripping out features. That kind of bullshit should be illegal.
