  1. With wifi being a battery hog when it is not connected, you should leave mobile data on all the time and turn off wifi when you leave home / work. Use Llama to automate this. Or Battery guru
  2. You can set google+ to autoback up all your photos. Also worth doing.
  3. I guess the upside-downness is because... It's a map of Africa if it hadn't been invaded, so I guess the implication is Africa would set the agenda of which way is up. Or something like that.
  4. It's also worth making sure all your contacts are attached to your google account, rather than just stored on the phone/sim (go into contacts on your phone>settings>import/export) If you've got the 'Back up my data' box in backup and reset ticked then it ought to backup your settings and data. Also worthwhile checking that your keyboard data (ie your personal dictionary) is backed up - swiftkey has a thing called connect where it stores it in the cloud.
  5. Edited for a bigger version. So what is it then boys and girls?
  6. Rowley's Jermyn Street, London - it's all about the steak baby. And the unlimited chips. And the lovely service.
  7. Got a friend staying with me at the moment who is a rabid Celtic fan, so I hear an awful lot about Rangers. A club that is in many ways equally ****.
  8. I suspect when the iWatch comes out it'll be heavily geared to home automation via Apple's (proprietary) iBeacon system. I really hope they don't get their claws into people's homes.
  9. Android 442 is the latest version, so have a look in settings>about phone> Android version
  10. Fanny was her dog and had been rolling around in the compost heap.
  11. Never been a fan of Samsung phones apart from the S2. Get yourself/have a play with a Google Nexus device and the difference is night and day. Failing that, try Cyanogen mod on it and see if it's any better - it ought to be as there's no Samsung crapware on it.
  12. What Tegis said. You'll be happy you did...
  13. Nays, you can tell BG to leave wifi alone if you want. Might be worth giving it another go - they've been updating it regularly. Maybe it's improved?
  14. Those two Creed ones basically. All you ever need.
  15. Kurt, have a look at the Lenovo Solution Centre. It might already be installed on your laptop. If not then download, install, run it and let it do its thing.
  16. I've Just started watching Archer. Very silly. Very funny. http://youtu.be/bfQkIuMQBkc
  17. I'll do it for £1k. Need the cash in advance though...
  18. The footy scores app is ace; not massively sexy, but it gives you live scores from pretty much every game on the planet. You can filter out stuff you don't wan though... Other stuff that I use all the time: London centric stuff: Journey pro for Tube/train maps/times/status/journey planning London Bus Checker - same but for buses Oyster Balance app - even tells you when you haven't tapped out properly Other bits and bobs: Shush - When you put your phone on silent turns your ringer back on after a set period of time Swiftkey - Ace keyboard that speeds up your typing. Also does Swype style. Battery Guru - only if you have a snapdragon processor in your phone MX Video Player - plays anything & combines well with ES File Explorer streaming video over the network Wifi Analyser - troubleshoot wifi issues Fing Network Tool - bloody handy if you have to deal with networks - shows connected clients & can ping etc Plus pretty much all the Google apps.
  19. I use es file Explorer and is brilliant. It can also connect to cloud storage, has a built in media player. I love it.
  20. About the only fashion trend left from the nineties. Personally, T-shirts don't get tucked in, but shirts do.
  21. Yo Yo Ma playing Bach's cello concertos.
  22. Obviously the specs aren't as good as the nexus 7 but to me storage is more important Purchasing a blue one of these tomorrow for the princely sum of £99. If you can't quite afford the new nexus 7 then get one of these. The moto g of tablets imo. Where you getting it Ingram? Got a mate who wants one.
  23. At the risk of being patronising, have you opened up google search since the update? If not, do it.
