Smartphones news update 2012 Google Android 4 2 update rolling out for HTC One Dual Sim 0212640000

HTC created a special Dual Sim version of its HTC One flagship, which is limited to several markets like India, China and Russia. Strangely enough this is also the first One variant to receive Android 4.2.2 (not counting the Nexus Edition), the worldwide version of the flagship is still on 4.1.2.

The update brings a number of improvements to both the Android base and HTCs customizations. Theres a widget-enabled lockscreen, quick toggles in the notification area plus smaller enhancements like rearranging homescreen panes, battery percentage in the status bar, options for the Home button to remove the on-screen Menu button.

The Camera and Zoe apps were improved too – now you get AE/AF lock, an updated Zoe file format that handles videos better and 6 new themes for Video highlights.

The update weighs in at 175MB and is only for the dual-SIM version of the phone. The update for the regular HTC One should come out soon. This might be HTC playing it safe, first releasing the update for the rarer One Dual Sim to make sure there are no issues before launching for the the more popular HTC One.

In and out and out again

I am preparing to go away again (more on that later) and have been in and out of the office/blog. I am still loving my gadget life at present and would like to take a moment to catch you up:

• OQO 02 is still running Vista Ultimate and I have recently installed PDF Annotator which is so much fun to play with (watch Robs InkShow)
• I am now the proud owner of a Samsung Q1U-V! Yep, thats Tablet number...15, 16, 17...I lost count sorry.
• I am now the proud owner of an Amtek T770. This machine is pretty unique in that it is very low priced and yet features onboard camera, kickstand, Wifi, Bluetooth and lots more. It is a little clumsy as it is quite large, and, it tends to run hot (although not as hot as its predecessor the T700).
• I have received a Nova SunPad and it ROCKS!!! More on that soon!
• I have a Storm Trooper coming with a yet to be seen Accessory! (If you dont know what the storm trooper is just head over to GBM and see if you can find out. *smiles*

Ill be back soon. Hope youre all well! Miss you all!
