I learned my lesson. I finally decided to break the cycle and after three consecutive Samsung phones I decided to vote with my dollars and I bough a nexus 6 this time. It came with lollipop. About a week ago I got the 5.1 update. Couldn't be happier. Even if I eventually get lollipop on my...

Interesting side note. There will likely be a specific need for low persistence OLED displays for virtual reality applications in the future. This is an excerpt from the Oculus Rift website: Low Persistence OLED Display DK2 uses a low persistence OLED display to eliminate motion blur and...

Interesting Article on Motion Blur with OLED displays http://www.blurbusters.com/faq/oled-motion-blur/

I felt the same way. I would absolutely positively never use a device with 4:3 aspect ratio. Then I got a nexus 9. Figured I would hate it. But I found that movies were actually fine on it. It is more a psychological thing about unused screen space I think, because I found it no more...

BSPlayer: No audio for me either. I've gone back to transcoding my files to mp4. That works fine.

LOL Yes VPlayer Works but in Software only mode (h264 mkv files) and just barely (video isn't very smooth) - which I suppose is a testimony to how powerful the processor in the Nexus 10 is - it can decode h264 video and audio reasonably well in software - problem is, your are maxing out the...

Wait a minute: Are you saying that with a single update Google has managed to render ALL HD video players non-functional on the Nexus 10? That's hard to believe..... And I think, that would have to be considered a significant problem..... Oh well who wants video on a media consumption device...

Don't see why this would be a problem if your only objective is to obtain the update. Then, you do a factory data reset, re-entering your account and re-installing all your apps. Which seems like the better way to do any update anyway as I never feel comfortable just installing the new version...

Google replaced the Bluetooth stack in 4.2 and effectively destroyed Bluetooth on many devices. Google is now trying to correct the problem and have announced that 4.2.2 will be out shortly, whatever that means, and have a fix. So I would think that no devices will be getting 4.2 for some time...

For what its worth, I sent a support request to Jawbone with a link to this thread explaining the issue. Probably won't achieve much, but worth a try I guess. At least it may make them aware of the problem.

Great tip thanks - thats exactly what I was looking for - now I can keep a running total of change per day - think I'll make myself a chart with the number at say 7:00 PM every day and see how fast the market is growing.

Where are you getting these numbers - I've been checking each category, with newest apps listed first and at most I usually see one or two new apps in each category - is there someone (website) keeping track of the additions?

Good article. Have you noticed that there are no desktop style apps? I'm wondering if the reason there is an app shortage is Microsoft. The article points out how hard it can be to make productivity apps in Metro. But why haven't any existing desktop apps been re-compiled for RT? Where are the...

Its hard to find anything decent. Its seriously amazing how absoulutely awful some of the selection is. One of the highes rated apps in Music is.... Krishna Aarti Overview: "This is a beautiful app which gives the feeling of being close to Lord Krishna, a great music in teh background set...

Actually there are two official cases - sleeves actually - one is by Incipio - its a basic sleeve case and works fine - it has a matching color strip to coordinate with your keyboard color ( if that really matters ) - its OK but overpricied. Got mine for $34.95 because they were priced wrong and...
