    I just got Spectral Souls on my Galaxy tab 2. It looks fantasically addictive, but fucking hell on-screen controllers shit me up the wall. Yes, it's a port of (I think) a PSP game, but given that it's costing me three times as much as a regular Android game (which still isn't that much, but even so...) I feel that I should be able to just touch the bloody space I want my guy to move to, rather than pressing up-up-left-left-up on the touch arrows. It's just irritating.

    Maybe I should invest in one of those Bluetooth controllers.

    I believe it's a minute or so behind live telly, some loophole or other meaning they can make the app.

    Anyone know of a good turn-based strategy game? I find RTS games too stressful.

    @Mola_Ram Haven't played it yet but Highborn is meant to be pretty good (only available on amazon app store).

    Ugh, I wanted to get that but the Amazon app store doesn't take non-US credit cards or something. It's almost like they want people to steal things.

    Hey, Amazon! I want to give you money to buy something! How about it?

    Bump for the evening crowd.

    Spent a bit of time with The Curse and it's nice stuff, very decent puzzles.

    Also thoroughly recommend Organ Trail - a retro Zombie themed RPG in the vein of Oregon Trail

    Anybody have any trouble with Spotify for Android? It keeps randomly deleting my downloaded offline playlists and has been doing so through various versions of the client over the last 3 months. I have a HTC one S

    Its annoying me to the extent that I will probably look for a different service soon.

    Wow Chrome really is buggy, straight away I visit a site, try to add to bookmarks and crash.

    I got The Curse, seems like a decent puzzle collection. Definitely worth the 60 pence if you're into puzzles.

    Just found a link to one of those "post your home screen threads".

    iOS post your homescreen

    The comments started off normal but then an android user found the site and stated the obvious and posted the following.

    Just made me chuckle ...[/link]

    Some rather lovely home screens there-might have to start messing around with mine again.

    Can anyone recommend a good email client?  I've finally got pissed off with the stock client's apparent inability to filter by unread.

    Think I'll just switch everything off.

    I think its k9 thats most popular. Can't really give any help above that as I use the gmail app.

    Does anybody use the billing via carrier option in the play store on T-Mobile?

    It seems to have disappeared and I can't find any info as to why.   Used it earlier this week too.

    I used k9 for a bit for my gmail. got annoyed by the lack of threaded email so switched back to the stock gmail client which I hate

    if theres one thing I like about iOS its the email client its just so clean and functional without any added shite

    The Samsung contacts app seems to add everyone I have ever sent an e-mail to into it, which isn't all that helpful. I the default app I remember there being an option to hide any that didn't have a phone number associated but I can't find that one in this app. Any advice?

    I had this problem. Delete the whole thing and then start again, and if you are logging on via facebook or non-facebook, don't switch around because it wipes each time you change. And spend most of your time in offline mode :)

    I've just started using the sopcast android app. Surprisingly good so far, even in 3g.

    Has anyone upgraded to Juice Defender Ultimate? The free version is good but I'd like a little more customisation but it's £5 which is quite a lot for an app. Worth it?

    I'm still hoping someone has a solution to my contacts issue above too :)
    If not then I guess I could try a different third party app or try and find an apk for the default one.

    Don't download the update to Apex Launcher, it force closes atm.

    Give yourself ½ gig or a £, you're worth it.
