lol u making yuhself wait cos yuh too fackin lazy

jus yesterday i install 2.3.4 on mih GSII and it eh even available on Kies yet

GTalk video chat ftw!

So this means no more kies updates for you again? I flashed an 'unofficial official' 2.3.4 on my SGS also, but only as a last resort to fix a camera problem. I prefer kies updates over these official leaks since those leaks tend to be somewhat buggy.

well i've never even used Kies. always used Odin for all my updates and only use the official fw updates that Samsung releases over Kies anyway.

well except for this one that hasnt been released yet but is supposed to be the final build that will be released on Kies soon...

Netflix app on Android updated to work on 24 models including Galaxy S, Droid 3



The number of Android devices officially compatible with the Netflix streaming app has more than doubled in v1.3, growing from 9 to 24. Last night the description was updated with a new list of devices but the actual updated APK only started pushing this afternoon, bringing Netflix not only to the Lenovo tablet announced last night but also to the Droid 3, HTC Thunderbolt, Motorola Atrix, several Galaxy S phones including the Epic 4G and Fascinate and more. Fragmentation is clearly still an issue for DRM'd apps like this and Hulu Plus, but at least now there's a growing number of recent superphones supported instead of sitting on the sidelines. We've got the updated list of devices after the break, hit the source link to download the app from the Android Market.

Currently Netflix playback is supported on the following devices:

• Casio G'zOne Commando C771 with Android 2.2
• HTC Droid Incredible
• HTC Droid Incredible 2
• HTC EVO
• HTC EVO 3D
• HTC G2
• HTC Thunderbolt
• Lenovo IdeaPad Tablet
• LG Revolution
• Motorola Atrix
• Motorola Droid
• Motorola Droid X
• Motorola Droid X2
• Motorola Droid 2
• Motorola Droid 3
• Samsung Droid Charge
• Samsung Epic 4G
• Samsung Galaxy S
• Samsung Galaxy S 4G
• Samsung Fascinate
• Samsung Nexus S
• Samsung Nexus S 4G

Therefore gettin updates is not a possibility.

Google+ Racks Up 20 Million Uniques In 3 Weeks



Google+ is hot, hot, hot. According to ComScore, the social network has pulled in 20 million unique visitors in a mere three weeks. Leading the way is the US with 5 million and India with 2.8 million uniques.

It'll be interesting to see if Google can expand the service fast enough to keep up this momentum. I'm rooting for the Big G to succeed. I like chatting it up in 140 characters or more and Google+ is just so light, fresh and fun. It's like Happy Hour all day long.

Google Docs About To Be Invaded by 10GB Cat Videos



High-rolling Google Docs users with extra storage can open the upload pipes all the way. Google now lets you upload a file that's 10GB in size. Can't wait for the first cat video to land in my shared folder.

Google Gives Android Fragmentation a Giant Thumbs Up

One of the most immediate (and valid) criticisms of the Android bonanza is its fragmentation problem. Too many versions! It's confusing! So what could Google do to rein in the software panoply? Allow multiple versions of apps? Hmm.

The initiative has good intentions—instead of having one version of an app (APK) that might not be suited for every piece of Android hardware (which it very often isn't!), devs can tailor their releases to fit a variety of hardware hosts. An APK for every occasion! Download a game on your phone, get one APK—download the same game on your tablet, get another APK. The varieties are all contained under the same name in the Android Market, so you won't have to go fishing for the right one. So this could potentially make fragmentation more immense, but immensely less shitty.

Or it could just make it more immense. We're hoping devs use the newfound app-splitting power to do what Google hopes they'll do with it, rather than dropping sloppy permutations of their app for the whole Android family.
