Tasks in Hand

Although the semester break is now over, I really didn't put up much content on the blog for a good while already. I seriously didn't expect a number of events to occur in my (real) life - bit I guess interesting turn arounds can happen. That made me spend more time outdoors with a couple of close friends.

Being able to drive also helps greatly and I recently realized that I do not want to part with my Proton Saga. Somewhat given to me by my father, I truly have a car that I can drive. It, however, needs an overhaul and some misc repair here and there (like for the power windows). Thinking back, it happened to be the first car I came to like, actually the special limited editiob Proton Knight, but it is a special thing to me nonetheless.

Last week my sister got a new phone (pictured above). Since we couldn't afford another mid-tier phone, I picked the Sony Ericsson W8 for her as she mainly uses her phone for music. At default it was very laggy but I fortunately jumped the gate and went ahead to do some research then actually hacked it. A few hiccups along the way but the final result (pictured above) made the efforts worthwhile. GingerDX is a pretty good ROM to use - its fast.

Now I even have concept design work for a few events coming up this year...

That's all for now - pretty much filler ramblings though. =P

PS: Gundam AGE season 2 is shaping up to be a much better show than season 1.

Camera Test - Samsung Galaxy S II VS Canon IXUS 105 VS Samsung Champ

This is just a quick comparison I did between my available cameras (not counting my family members' phones of course).
My current main camera, Canon IXUS 105, has a bit of overexposure while my new phone, Samsung Galaxy S II, has a bit of underexposure. Both of them doesn't seem to produce very accurate colors and exposure but the SGSII feels sharper overall.

So, what do you think?

My Current Lockscreen and Wallpaper

Right now this is my lockscreen and wallpaper respectively for the Samsung Galaxy S II. Photo is taken by the Samsung Champ BTW; which is now my backup phone.

I'm also trying a free limited watermark app that looks to be doing its job. Luckily I normally resize my photos to 800px wide before uploading (which is the app's free limit).

This is just a random filler post nonethesless. Better get back to my assignments.

Test from Android - Part 2

So, Samsung Galaxy S II anyone?

After all these months, I've finally obtained the phone. Luckily, I had much decisive support from my friends and support from my parents as well. I guess moving up into the world is an important thing after all.

I only got the phone a few hours ago but it feels like it is a long time friend of mine. I got used to it way too fast like now I'm going around posting stuff from it. Although I can update my blog from this awesome phone, it won't be usable for my larger postings. Hence, I believe I might do quick blog posts while going around in the future. :3

Test from Android - Part 1

I tried using the default browser and Opera Mini at first but Blogger did not render properly...

Hm, uploading photos on Blogger through the mobile feels quite wonky (and doesn't work right) so I guess WordPress wins in this case... Need to see if Blogger have a good app or not.

Until the next post~
