Native ICS apps
0
If you didn’t know yet, I like ICS. I like the new interface, the Roboto font and especially the new and improved Google native apps. Since I saw GMail and the Android Calendar app on Honeycomb, I creaved for an update of these apps on my phone. But alas, Google has decided that you can only get [...]
Review: MobileVOIP
11
Today I will be telling you about a new VoIP app called MobileVOIP. VoIP is becoming all the rage nowadays because it lets you make cheap phone calls or send cheap text messages over a data connection in stead of over the normal 2G/3G connection of your phone. MobileVOIP is the first VoIP app which [...]
Review: Chrome browser for Android
4
Since my girlfriend just flashed a custom ICS ROM on her Samsung Galaxy S2, I decided I wanted to give Chrome for Android a go. I have always been a fan of Chrome for the desktop and the better integration that the new mobile version offered in relation to the desktop version is something I have [...]
App review: Finally a Facebook app for Android that works!
0
You know, I can be the person who constantly bitches about an app when it just doesn’t work. This was the case with the previous range of Facebook apps for Android, they were pretty crappy. Slow loading times, very bad responsiveness to finger actions and so annoying to check out photos and like or [...]

A couple of weeks ago my girlfriend bought the ASUS EeePad Transformer, which is a great little piece of tech, for a great price. But that aside, it turns out that it is not yet the laptop replacement that I imagined. This is largely due to the fact that is no easy task to sync documents between [...]
The iPhone 4S, the start of Apple’s downfall?
27 months ago
By now I trust you are all up to speed on the new(?) iPhone 4S that Apple announced on Tuesday. The much anticipated iPhone 5 turned out to be a misplaced expectation of the public. When looking at the ever evolving mobile market, people just expected something new from Apple this time. The iPhone [...]
Stop with the patent lawsuits already!
0
Recently, the mobile world has been rockin’ over many patent infringement cases, with Apple taking the lead in being the bully. Ok I have to admit, Apple’s suit against Samsung has some grounds because Samsung did obviously copy Apple designs with its Galaxy S line. However, the suit against HTC is [...]
Steve Jobs is a douche #2
0
Why does old Steven Jobs always tries to diss Apple’s competitors with stupid remarks and comments? I don’t know, but yesterday he did it again, at the keynote speech in which he presented the iPad 2. There were two of these remarks actually, one concerning Honeycomb apps and one concerning sales [...]
Vanilla Android ROMs need better power toggle options

in On other stuff...
An action which I do quite a lot on my Android phone is toggle the power settings; switching WiFi on and off, changing screen brightness, disabling mobile network network connections or switching GPS on and off. In the stock Vanilla Android ROMs, this can either be done from the settings menu or [...]
