Why I won't suggest Sony smartphones

Although Sony makes one of the best smartphones, it wouldn't be on top of my list to suggest. Why? Because Sony is known to be too slow or just forget their phones when firmware (Android) updates are available.

UpNext

A new calendar widget that looks good on my Android devices but still links to Cal for the full calendar app

Viber is down?

Messages from Philippines and Australia confirmed cannot be sent

Instagram

Isn't it for pictures? I could have installed an app for quotes instead if I wanted quotes

Google Now Launcher on an LG G2

Side loaded it on my phone, works fine except for two things, the Knock On feature works only on waking up and the "Ok Google" hotword doesn't work.

Chrome Remote Desktop

Easier to set up and use than Microsoft's own Remote desktop app

Updating PS3

Different updates for different games including the whole console

Kakao Talk

Installed it because my daughter uses it

False hope

The Alcatel One Touch Idol Ultra prompted for an available update, I was hoping for KitKat, but...just a small update

Pocket

I like the new browser extension (new for me coz I just found out about it now). No need to open the website to save to Pocket, just right click the link and choose "save to Pocket".

Contact photos

Phone doesn't upload edited contact photos

Open Garden

Wrecked havoc after installation in my Alcatel One Touch Idol Ultra, had to do a hard reset

KitKat memory management

Living up to its promise of better app management resulting in faster transitions and processes

Android Wear

Pretty exciting news to wake up to as Google introduced Android Wear concept. A wearable device that will make the user more informed and connected than looking stupid.

Between LG and Motorola (both announced their version of Android Wear device right after Google did the announcement), I'd choose the Moto 360 over the LG G watch in design the design factor, although I'm sure that LG will be a lot cheaper. But then again, I'm not getting both and will probably wait for version 2.

TEXT Spam

Although I've noticed that I'm only getting text spams in my Globe line and none on my Sun line, hmmmmm

Wow, from once a month to 4-5 different SMS/text ads a day! Good job Supreme Court for legalizing Text Spam!

NTC Circular against porn

Isn't anybody doing something about this?

Present and past-presidents of PMA sued

If not true (from the recent denial of Dr. Olarte), then looks like they're victims of a smear campaign and harrasment. I can only assume that this is a backlash from the government from the BIR ad snafu.

LG G2 from Globe

I wonder if the posts are true, that this is a openline unit, will do an experiment tonight

Security check

A guy passed thru a security check with a suit case, lady guard waved "metal detector" over the bag, asked guy to open it, guy said he doesn't know the combination, lady guard let him in. Wow! Now I feel secured.
