Man am I excited, as we speak I am doing a over the air update for android 4.1.1. This is better known as "jelly bean" which bring faster load times, project butter which uses the graphics and CPU on my phone 2 times faster then the android 4.0 "IceCream sandwige. Consiter that I have 2 gigs of ram and a 1.5 dule core that will rock. This probly belongs in the cell phone board but man!!! am I excited to play with google now "google's voice assistant." Well take care all, now to sit here and wait for the update, way to go t-mobile this was nice and timely. Glad to see samsung put out updates in a timely manner.
Which android device do you have? I have had a few before and liked them but well, I keep going back to IOS lol. I'd like to convert some day and was wondering that usual question of, which one should I get!
I figured after posting the first post I'd tell you which devices I had. The first one was the LGE Ally from verizon. I had it for a while and it was alright but got old after a while. It was a very entry level phone so I switched back to the iPhone. The next one I had was the samsung captivate glide. I liked this phone a lot however it wasn't doing a good job at being a phone and didn't have good bbattery life so I returned it and got my 500 dollars back and then of course switched back to the iPhone. I do wonder that at the time I was in Pennsylvania and in my location no phone had good signal strength so could that have screwed my battery life up? I've been thinking of getting an android device and staying with it cause I want a phone that gets awesome updates with out shelling out thousands of dollars every few months. While I like Apple a lot I see a rather interesting future for them. Yeah everything is accessible and I like that and it's easy to use but I've saw accessibility improvements and I think that was my hole reason I kept switching back to my current iPhone. I kept thinking okay, when this gets improved I'll get it again but, now I've saw the improvement and am just not sure which phone I wanna get or should get when I get the money to buy another one.
Well since this is an Android topic.
I'm interested in how your upgrade went. Since Google does Android and the Google Documents / accounts, etc., that part doesn't seem to be an issue. But with a third-party screen reader, how well did it work eyes-free?
Sorry I did not post an answer sooner, Leo the process went quite smoothly and I never once lost speach until it had to power down and restart in recovery mod where it installed my jelly bean update. I was quite supprised it worked as well as it did but not wants did I lose speach. When it finally came up it took a sec to speak but talkback was up and running in no time.
I love the new gesters we have for jelly bean, heck I can even now suspend talkback and turn it on by pressing my power button once and waking up my phone by pressing it again and waking up the S3.
Nice. Independent sources online are now saying the newest operating systems are getting closer and closer, leaps and bounds. Of course the best way to demonstrate will be using Stock Android.
We're considering getting the daughter a Chromebook for a laptop solution until we can afford to buy her a mac before college starts. From my reading on this, my suspicions are confirmed in that CNet is of the opinion that Crome OS and Android OS will be merged soon.
I'm really hoping LG updates the mach to jellybean. I like the phone a lot but I really want jellybean.
I want to be moved away from jelly bean 4.1.1 with out rooting again my device soon!. So here is to t-mobile update please!!.
