I get back from a conference in London that night. No sleep for me then as the reveal starts at 3am UK time. Looks like I better inject caffeine into my veins as it's going to be a long ass day.

Hnnnnnnng--

On another note, I downloaded the new translate app to try, and I don't see anything regarding "conversation mode" that they showed in the video...

That button never appears. Maybe the new version isn't on the market like they say it is?

Finally? It's not like there's any serious competition on the market. Everyone is waiting for ICS.

Nah man, mine has translation mode. Its cool.

At the entry screen, press the microphone icon next to the search bar, say something, then it will take you to a screen that looks like a text message conversation. The button is on the bottom.

Nah, it's there, first time in a word and translate, then you should see it.

If not, go to settings and turn on "conversation mode".

Oh my god, its finally happening. Out of the Android-ghetto we go!

rabhw · Oct 13, 2011

Weird, the version that the market website pushed to me was old. Immediately afterwards I had to manually update...

Oh well!

Reminds me how awful the name Honeycomb is.

I hope something happens on the 19th because I'm ready to buy a new phone now. My charge is barely making it as it is now.

where can I get the Netflix app?

i downloaded the 1.4.1 version in 4shared but when i open it, it says its an older version and that i have to download the newest one.

kehs · Oct 13, 2011

That's such an ugly statue. Jeez.

Ironically, the very first statues for Android, I heard about in a Sign magazine, since at the time I wasn't being an android geek.

I don't know about you, but I'm going to read the original android thread from scratch.

If ICS solution to removing hw keys is to just add them on screen it´s a big fail

Come up with something like Nokia Swipe or go home

The point is that you get to keep the phone the same size while still increasing the size of the screen. Presumably the navigation buttons and possibly the status bar fade out when you're watching a video or playing a game in full-screen. It's a small but nice feature that makes the device more pocketable and gives you the ability to customize the buttons however you want.

Anyway to get pass the too many patter attempt on the g2? My friend played and locked the phone and now its not even accepting my gmail account ;_;

So Larry Page is hyping it up... You wont believe what we managed to get done in this release.

i have bad news for you. Its been a bug since the inception of android. Maybe thats one of the things Page is excited about.

Don't you just have to wait a certain amount of time for it to reset and allow you to try again?

With ICS, I just hope Google lays down a mandate that all carriers need to update their currently supported handsets. They need to get their OS unified ASAP and that would be huge. It would inspire confidence in consumers too, because I'd just pick up a GS2 if there's any sort of exclusivity on the Nexus as long as I know I can get ICS without a massive delay or having to go the CM9 route.

So has it been a years since Duartes joined Google? Honeycomb was influenced by him. Let's see how far he can take the OS.

Hallelujah. That shit has been the biggest bummer for the longest time. "Oh, we're gonna show you all this cool stuff like cloud music, but uh... this won't be out for another year... and a half. Looks cool though, right?" It'd be a miracle of them not to do it this time.

kehs · Oct 13, 2011

Well, at least they're introducing new errors.

ERROR
"Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card."

Gee thanks for the solution!

he joined, what, 6 months before gingerbread release, a little less then that? So this is the first full cycle of phone software thats his.

No luck with both. Only option I think I might have left is flash another rom.

So how long do we reckon before a custom ROM based on ICS comes out for the Galaxy S2? I can't wait for Samsung to make an official one.

Pretty sure the Cyanognmod team is already planning something. They mentioned CM9 when the latest version was released.

Have a question for texting on ATT service. Their options for texting are a bit ridiculous. You can either buy an unlimited package for 20 bucks (seriously?), or pay 20 cents per text.

If you go with no package does it deduct from your minutes for texting, or do you literally pay 20 cents per text?

0.20 Per text ... incoming AND outgoing

voodoojohn · Oct 13, 2011

Is there not a way to send and recieve texts through Google Voice? Verizon's fees are similarly onerous, so I'm trying to figure this out before the Prime launches.
