Right so I dropped my almost brand f***ing new G3 on Saturday night and smashed the glass and apparently the digitizer too, so I had to go and order a whole new screen for it.

Does anyone have any experience fitting screens on smartphones? Anything I should or shouldn't do? What are my chances of not f***ing it up completely?
I dunno

You shouldn't do it all because you're completely feckless <ok>.

I agree. You always seem to be completely hammered so get someone else to do it.

It's very rare that I'd ever drink two days in a row, even on weekends <roll>

It's only binge drinking if you stop.

Cut my contract from £43 a month to £10 a month. Can't believe I paid that much for 2 years.

Just had the android 5.1 update pop up on my nexus 7, I clicked to update and now it just displays a waiting for download message and doesn't seem to be doing anything, <scratch>

Everything is useable still just odd that the download seems to be in some kind of limbo, anyone know what it could be? I've tried a reboot but it didn't change anything.

Do you need to clear some memory?
My iPhone updates do this quite a lot and I usually have to delete apps / photos ect.

Its sorted now, it seemed to just be downloading very slowly in the background.

Would have been nice to have had some form of progress bar <wenger>

Last android update for my phone took about 2 hours to download and install.

Now whenever it buggers itself up, like taking another call when already on a call it stops the call connection and asks if I want to listen to the radio and both calls remain on hold.

Permanently.

Have to restart the phone whenever this happens.
