A new, faster and more polished version of the Android operating system is being sent to Nexus devices over the air from now really. From what I've seen so far it looks pretty good apart from the home button, home is a house not a circle.

Battery drain issues are said to have been sorted and a more user friendly version is promised to those who just want to make phone calls and look at FB and stuff.

Meh, I think that I'll stick to CM but I'll give it a try when it lands on my tablet in the next couple of days.

Please don't verbally abuse me , but I need simple instructions . The simpler the better . :oops:

Background............ for ages I was seeking a book that had been published locally waaaay back in time, but it was VERY limited edition so I wasn't having any luck .
Anyway, through reading a local forum I managed to catch someone who had a copy that she was happy to share via *to read online* with others interested in the book , bless her. She sent it to me via email , but in 'zip' form , which of course I know bugger all about . :grrrrr:
How do I access the book ?
I'm using a laptop with windows7 on it .
Any help appreciated , thanks .

Download for free off the net - 'WinRAR' it will open most Zip and RAR files and it's simple to get your head around. HTH. :thumbsup:

Funny you say that, it used to when I used it before, even stopped me using it after 3 months unless I paid for it.

I downloaded it again over a year ago when I got this Win8 laptop, never heard a whisper from them and still going strong. :dunno:

A new, faster and more polished version of the Android operating system is being sent to Nexus devices over the air from now really. From what I've seen so far it looks pretty good apart from the home button, home is a house not a circle.

Battery drain issues are said to have been sorted and a more user friendly version is promised to those who just want to make phone calls and look at FB and stuff.

Meh, I think that I'll stick to CM but I'll give it a try when it lands on my tablet in the next couple of days.
