No more frustrating wait for an OTA Update

I came across this excellent thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895 which provided very clear instructions on changing the yakjuxw version on my Galaxy Nexus to yakju, which should make any further OTA updates available without waiting months!

One just needs to read it all through a number of times, and be sure to test each stage before doing the final update. The reading took days, while the actual update took minutes :)

So, I now have Android 4.2.2 and the YAKJU build.

Galaxy S2 Camera apps

It wasn't the best weather for a test of the standard Camera app with a paid app called HDR Camera+, but I came across some colourful leaves on a few twigs close to home and took a snap with both apps. The result was clearly in favour of the HDR app.

The Galaxy S2 arrived

Have spent several hours sorting things out so far, and I'm pretty happy :)

YES! Pixmania came through..

I received confirmation that my Nexus One had been credited in full, and was able to order a Samsung Galaxy S2 for just NOK 550 more. I would have liked the Galaxy Nexus, but it will be a while before that becomes available in Norway I feel. So, I look forward to receiving the 4.3" device in a few days time, and seeing how it compares with the iPhone 4.
