New features, not a lot...... but here's a link to anyone that wants to know Windows 8.1 August update now available - CNET

Bump - Can nobody help us further otherwise the phone is going to be chucked in the bin?

The one main problem with the HTC One M8 is the camera is absolutely dreadful, my girlfriend has the S5 and I can't fault it although if it was me I'd wait a bit and get the Samsung Note 4 for the extra punch in performance and all the good features like multi-windows etc... Don't just think of the "bigger battery upgrade" also think of the fact if you can't change the battery and the battery ever has a fault or stops eventually holding charge you'll have to get it sent to HTC to replace, also HTC lock the boot loaders on all their devices making flashing ROM's that bit more difficult (thanks HTC) - Apple Copy Much? But then again if you like Apple then yes buy a HTC One M8.

Haha - Brilliant, though I'm fortunate enough to be able to eat a whole pack of hob nobs most days and never put on a pound, this will change of course but I will be as lazy as I can be for as long as I can and if that means using three fingers I shall

Since installing Classic Shell's start menu Classic Shell - Start menu and other Windows enhancements I forget I'm even using Windows 8.1, It's just like Windows 7 but I still benefit from having the better security features and all the other good-ness Windows 8 brings Looking forward to Windows 9 though I do think they need an entirely new theme Windows is starting to look a little dated compared to it's competitors!

I had a friend back in Middle School who was born with deformed hands, he actually used to be perfectly able to use his feet and toes to control a mouse it was quite fascinating, to add to this list he could also paint and write using his feet. I do the three finger scroller, think of the extra effort involved moving that one finger over to the scroller and then scrolling, wouldn't you all be more efficient using three fingers on all buttons at once for quick fast moving action

We are a bit confused because I have only ever messed around with a Samsung device, we can't seem to be able to re-flash another or the standard stock rom - bit of a noob with HTC you'd be a life saver if you could tell me how to flash a ROM back on the device step by step? I don't know what you mean by s-off? Although when in CWM recovery it won't allow you to browse the /sdcard (standard internal storage - I have tried mounting this manully in CWM but it just says error can't mount) for some strange reason and it fails to mount it so I can't access the .zip to install any ROM?

Bootloader is unlocked as far as I know and its CWM Recovery that's installed. I have tried finding a RUU, we found a FUU whatever that is for a HTC One Mini but it didn't fix it! Any ideas or links you guys know that will help

@ZeroHour he didn't get to the point of rooting it, what happened is that we where attempting to root it so put it into fastboot mode and installed CWM recovery and then expected to install the zip file to root it, though CWM wouldn't find the zip file and only showed what was in the cache, we then restarted the phone and it hung at the HTC boot logo and won't boot at all! On my Samsung I'd just stick it into download mode and use odin to install the stock firmware but I can't find anything like this for HTC one mini! I'd appreciate any help in order to sort it, we can still access fastboot mode cheers

Am I right in thinking all Chinese residents get given free Internet access across the country I'm sure I read that somewhere! To be fair our government is going the same way!

How much you looking for the monitor? Will you ship?

What a rip off at that price the 740m is mediocre at best, my friend bought one a while back now with a 740m and it struggles to play Rust anything over Simple Graphics, at 1440x900! The 860m is ok-ish but for a few more quid I'd go with a 870m, if you're co-worker is on a budget then maybe go for the older 765m or 770m which don't differ much in performance but can be a lot cheaper. I'd recommend an Alienware as they are the one gaming laptop that is practical it can be upgraded along with the GPU (Only Alienware 17 to 18) just like you would a desktop PC and with 3 hard drive bays etc.... it all makes sense for the money, but rule number 1, never buy from Alienware direct sometimes it can take a month for the flaming thing to be delivered and they are much more expensive than buying from a re-seller. Something like this will be good and it's so worth the extra few hundred! Dell Alienware 17 M17x R5 Laptop 3.4 i7,16GB,Win 8.1 ,HD,4GB Radeon R9 M290X | eBay

Have a read of this maybe worth waiting before you blow a load of money for a 4k TV!! HDCP 2.2: What you need to know - CNET

It's a magic number they change daily!

Yeah went to PC World and got a new cartridge in the end Cheers guys!

Bump Please

Not keen on it at all looks like a 5 year old designed the OS!

Hey Guys Bit of an issue here trying to print of the last few pages of our plane tickets and the god damn printer has ran out of colour ink, it's funny because all I need is black ink which I have plenty off. Anyone got any tricks up their sleeve that will enable me to print with a dead colour cartridge? My printer is a Kodak ESP 1.2 if that helps.. Cheers

Runs like carp in VMWare!

To be honest with you what was an adults debate you have turned into a childs playground pointing fingers and the rest of it I'm out before I say something that may involve a mod. One thing though I would like to say is I don't believe you're right.

I understand where you're coming from though when looking at the world at a much larger scale are you going to be able to persuade everyone they can't eat meat? No. The whole concept and the only way we can save the world is to find a way of still being able to deliver these luxuries without it impacting on the environment take renewable energy for an example it dosen't impact on the environment yet it still allows us to keep the luxury that is electricity, the only issue is storing that energy which practically we should be finding out a way to do so on the highest priority! So saying to people they can't eat meat won't work, think of a way to help rather than dictate and more people will listen that's the goal!

I know meat eaters contribute to a huge problem but @pcstru is suggesting because I've just filled my belly full of beef it's the same as me purposely letting methane gas out of a natural reserve for no other reason than for my own entertainment... don't think so, very short sighted argument and case there. I don't eat meat all the time and I have massively cut down on it but I am still a meat eater because I eat it maybe 5 times a week.

Meat Eaters & Carnivores = Destroying the planet, because y'know logic and stuffs. Edit: I eat meat as we are like it or not Carnivores thats what we eat and that's where we get the biggest source of energy and growth from, it's how our bodies where designed, our teeth and our facial features are all that of a carnivore.... No crime in it. They where doing it for fun and a "laugh" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA so funny and entertaining, I eat to stay alive and I like to eat meat, I eat veggies too don't worry your point is? So to round things off your saying that me eating meat is the same as someone poking holes into a natural methane reserve to let it out because YOLO and things.... Okay as I said LOGIC.

Exactly which is why I was asking what people thought whether or not it would be more of a negative impact than positive I haven't watched the lego movie though I have got it at home I might give it a go.

Am I being thick or is anyone else confused by this statement? Also how did you get to this: As far as I can see it's got nothing to do with free speech but then again I didn't understand the post....?????
