- 34 views
http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/94bea8ba0396adb524a5c8c2de174040.jpgWith Star Wars: Episode VIII delayed to December 2017, the stakes have gotten significantly higher for director Gareth Edwards' spinoff movie. In fact, fans are so anxious for the movie that any hint of trouble behind the scenes turns into a newsworthy catastrophe, as was the case when several publications began reporting that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story would be undergoing significant reshoots this summer. Now, weeks later, Edwards has spoken to Entertainment Weekly for their cover story to set the record straight. (more…)http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/5f52f2380eee73624def8b…

- 25 views
http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/b6bd2ec06d2b492bc166f84bd8e2021d.jpgThere’s much ado about a certain headphone jack these days. The iPhone 7 is expected to ditch the standard 3.5mm port, just like Motorola’s 2016 flagship devices that were announced a few weeks ago. But not all phones will stop supporting the audio standard, and at least one of the two upcoming HTC-made Nexus devices is rumored to have a headphone jack. In fact, a new leak gives us a preview of the rumored hardware of the smaller 2016 HTC Nexus handset.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/4033d2bd56e677ff7005ce8f4d4a883f.jpgThis year’s Game of Thrones season is slowly coming to an end. The season finale airs on Sunday and it will hopefully bring resolutions to several matters that have not been resolved. Sure, the Battle of the Bastards episode was one of the best this season, but there are plenty of other things happening in Westeros and Essos that need to be further explained. While we wait for the last episode of season 6 to hit HBO, we can confirm that one popular theory related to the most recent events in Game of Thrones has been officially shot down.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/bc90fc480905e653e7d12f942b4b3386.jpgGame of Thrones is famous for being the most pirated show on TV, but what about its legal ratings? As it turns out, those aren't so bad either. When you add up all the different forms of viewing -- originals, repeats, DVR and streaming -- HBO's hit series is now up to 23 million viewers from the US alone per episode. That's a marked increase from last year, and a new high for the series. (more…)http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/95a58901890be8cb474952e870431aca._.gif Via BRG - Boy Genius Report

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/dafc80c304e64791c1b42c7c41df1ebc.jpgThrough a combination of great marketing and rushing out 'Autopilot' while it's still in beta, Tesla has managed to become the big name in semi-autonomous driving (though there have been a couple of bumps in the road so far). But as you'd imagine, other automakers are working on programs of their own. USA Today recently got behind the wheel of a Mercedes E-Class equipped with all the autonomous driving tech that will be coming to Mercedes's cars in the next year. It all sounds quite similar to Tesla, but you won't be able to sleep behind the wheel. (more…)http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMi…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/d87a3a67809409a83af8a8cdeb0c7093.jpgApple is no stranger to being sued over everything, by everybody. But the class-action lawsuit over "Error 53," which occurred when some customers had their TouchID sensors replaced by unauthorized repair shops, was a standout kind of bad. Luckily, that lawsuit has been stopped before it got anywhere near a jury. Yesterday, a US district court judge dismissed the entire lawsuit, saying that the plaintiffs "lack standing to pursue injunctive relief," and could not provide sufficient evidence that they had suffered permanent data loss.

Even so, there’s a fine print you have to read when getting a new Nexus device.
