Another reason I'm happy picking the SGS 2 over a i phone.

Played Scribblenauts on my mates iphone tonight. Shame there's no Android version.

Ok, so I've 100% completed Where's My Water (462/462 ducks and all achievements) and I've 100% tri-starred Cut the Rope (674 I think).

Next awesome puzzle game plskthx?

Considering getting Osmos. Its had rave reviews

Osmos is awesome! So ambient & chilled. Love it.

 

[caLLous]

Osmos is nice, it should be tried for crimes against my battery though.

 

[Lamp]

Never have battery issues. Charger at home, charger in the office, car charger when I'm driving, & its always charged overnight or before going out for an evening. Lowest my battery's ever been is 50% I think.

 

[caLLous]

You never have battery issues but you need about 15 chargers.

Tbh I have wall charger, USB cable and car charger and I don't have problems either. I just noticed the charge practically falling out the bottom of the battery while I was playing Osmos. It is hella pretty though (and awesome choons).

Have you seen what they've done to WMW in the last update? WAP access?! WTF?! Not upgrading while thats in there. Poor show.

 

[caLLous]

I'm guilty of not paying any attention to that screen when installing stuff sometimes.

Bored of Osmos already, the only tthing I go back to is level 9 of Impasse in Arcade mode.

2 Points.

1) Has anyone found any tablet specific apps worth installing? This is where I'm finding the sony tablets lags behind the ipad is apps. Games I am sorted for thanks to the PS Store. Other apps not so much.

2) If anyone has a long commute and hasnt found the Travel widget yet, install it. It's freaking awesome, man.

X Construction has been holding my attention recently.



Like games from the Bridge Builder series. The original Bridge Builder was the best, they tried to add too much to it afterwards.

That is actually a good idea. 4 games for your phone, the same 4 games for your desktop as well. Average price is $6.07 atm.

What specific Travel widget are you talking about? There are hundreds on the Market!

I'm thoroughly enjoying osmosis tbfh, great on my touchpad.

I believe it comes as standard with Android, as I have found on both my Sony Tablet S and Sony Ericsson X10. All it gives you is a little traffic light with time to destination on it, but is damn useful for checking before you leave what sort of journey you can expect. Uses Google Maps so doesn;t re-route you, but still damn useful.

Anyone recommend an app for the S2 which can read out (vocalise) text messages?

Vlingo.
It was around before Apple brought out Siri, and I was using it for a while when driving to make/break calls. My problem was that it had trouble hearing me over the sound of the car.

Go SMS Pro. Press and hold on a message and select speak text.

 

[Zenith.UK]

And that breaks the law if you're driving. Vlingo can be controlled completely by voice without touching the screen.

 

[Lamp]

Just installed Go SMS Pro. Awesome bit of software. Got a snazzy green neon theme to go with it. Good call, Bigmac

 

[Tilda]

Not sure if anybody uses it, but Onenote for Android is out now. Very sexy, syncs perfectly with skydrive notebooks. Like.

Anyone fancy doing another "essentials" roundup? Say a top five or ten apps for yer phone as it stands today?

Also, any fucker want to tell me how to connect my SGS2 to my fezzing comp?

 

[Helme]

I can't help much with the essential stuff since most of what I consider that has to do with Swedish public transport.. but you plug the USB cable into the phone and then into the computer. If it doesn't recognize it automatically, you install Samsung Kies, let it install the drivers and try again. After that you should probably never start that program again since it's awful but there you go!

 

[Scouse]

Done just that. It doesn't love 64-bit Win7
