Do you work in IT perchance?

Why yes, I am a network admin

Bit hasty suggesting an uninstall, surely a restart first?

mrk · 22 Dec 2010 at 19:51

It's Swype, a very quick to reinstall app (and only 2.5MB too).

In fact the time it took me to read your post, click reply, type this message and post I had reinstalled Swype!

screw all that faffing about, just flash the rom.

I might actually just send the phone back, should be under warranty and it's covered by insurance anyway.

Hey, sorry if this has been asked before but how do you guys buy your apps?

Whenever I buy something in anything other than £ I get charged a £1.50 service charge from halifax. Makes a 60p app suddenly not so cheap!

The reason why you are getting charged this is becuase Google bill you in USD. Halifax have a £1.50 charge for that.

Train Times UK or Rail Planner Live? Same price, any opinions

Btw. My market just started looking way different! Full redesign

Rail Planner Live works great now - was some issues with the widgets not updating location properly but that seems to be fixed now. Thumbs up from me.

Anyone got Battstatt working with Android 2.2.1? Mine is still stuck at loading...booo

Have swiftkey but want to try swype and gingerbread keyboard. GB KB just force closes as soon as I type on a DHD (using a version for unmodded, unrooted phones on 2.2)

Will check out swype

rockplayer has updated to 1.5.2 and now works with gingerbread, so i can watch 24 on the commute home

available through the updater in rockplayer

It looks like they are automatically pushing out the market update to all Android phones. I accessed the market yesterday and it was updated.

I'm running a custom android 2.2.1 (CyanogenMod6.1.1-spica-alpha8.1) and battstatt works fine on there

Anyone seen Splinter Cell Conviction HD? Looks pretty good.
