It seems that the formerly “do no evil” google have decided to remove all ad blocking apps from the Play Store. Fortunately it has always been possible to install apps directly from the APK files — as long as you can find them. The 3 most popular ad blocking apps are still available to download in apk format, all you need to do is enable the installing of apps from “unknown sources” somewhere in your phones settings.

0Samsung Galaxy S3 ‘v’ Asus eeePC 901
There are plenty of reviews out there comparing the latest phones, the latest tablets and the latest notebooks, but very few ever reference something more than 18 months old.

In the 4–5 year timeframe which is a more typical upgrade cycle for most people there have been huge changes to the computing power available.
0Sense 3.5 on HTC Desire
I’ve previously written about using[intlink id=“1841” type=“post”]an alternative ROM on my HTC Desire[/intlink] thanks to AceSMod007, but things have moved on a fair bit since then. I’ve finally got round to updating my Desire again, and decided I’d go with another “007 Mod”, specifically RunnymedeMod007 which features Sense 3.5. I’ve actually been running release 7 for a few weeks, but it has been a mixed experience. Having updated to release 21 a couple of days ago I’m now much happier. If you have a Desire and want the latest eye candy without compromising on performance I highly recommend giving it a try. Happy modding.

I was keen to have some of the Sense 3 features, along with the sense website access to my phone.

3Iphone 4S: Just a disappointing catch-up
So, I see that Apple have released the latest iteration of their “amazing” iphone. Each time a new iproduct gets released I find myself yelling at TV, Radio ads, and other ignorant people who don’t seem to realise that their is nothing special about Apple products. This time I’m going to share a few thoughts publicly instead. I’ve just watched the official release video over on the Apple website. So, with that as the basis, here are my thoughts on the “new” features in the iphone 4S…
