I'm not sure if you've heard of this Asif, but our phones will get Gingerbread in Q2.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

Aren't you running a custom Gingerbread already?

I was, but I couldn't run it anymore. It's fast n all, but I really got addicted to the Sense UI.

 

[JCK]

I can't stand Sense.

 

[icemaη]

I like Sense...

The capacity doesn't matter. Make sure you get at least a Class 4 SD card. It'll greatly help IO operations on the card and thus be faster.

D'oh this was Class 2

I must say the battery life on my phone is completely useless, can't even go 24 hours without a recharge (and I don't use the phone that much).

Get Juice Defender. It should boost the battery life by a few hours.

Cheers, I'll check it out

Sheik, what is going on with black droid.net, the page seems to be down lately

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

No idea man. I mostly use Applanet to get my cracked apps nowadays.

RIM preparing to bring BBM to iOS and Android, change everything again?
By Vlad Savov posted Mar 3rd 2011 9:59AM

Woah, now here's a juicy rumor to start your Thursday morning off with. BGR reports word from multiple trusted sources that RIM intends to take its BlackBerry Messenger outside the cozy confines of the BB ecosystem and straight into its competitors' app stores. BBM is reputedly all set to make its debut as a messaging app on both iOS and Android, though the specifics of what it might cost you have yet to be ironed out. It'll come in a stripped down version, you'll still need to own a BlackBerry for the full-flavored BBM experience, but that should nonetheless be extremely welcome news for folks finding themselves torn between platforms. The Android version is expected this year, say the sources, while the iOS app may take a little while longer thanks to Apple's more capricious approval requirements.

What do you guys think of the LG Optimus 2X?

Looks like a great phone spec-wise. But GSM Arena says the audio quality is bad.

engadget complained about the software but said that it can be fixed by installing another ROM


What sound quality?
