Google returns December to Android in latest update

Blair McClelland November 28, 2012 Android, Mobile

When Google first started to roll out Android 4.2 Jelly Bean two weeks ago a very minor, but rather serious object was excluded. Android 4.2 had no memory of what December, and Christmas, was. While the month of December was still included in the Calendar app, it was omitted from the People app and could not be used to set birthdays or anniversaries.

Today, the Android 4.2.1 update has started to arrive on Nexus devices, including the Nexus 4, 7 and 10. Other devices have not been effected as very few devices were ever running Android 4.2.

The update appears to bring nothing new to the table except for reinstating the month of December.

KitGuru says: Two weeks is a pretty good turnaround. But regardless this bug should have been picked up in the testing phases.

KitGuru Games: The Best Console is the One in Your Pocket

Emulation is the saving grace of the video games industry. Despite its controversial nature, the technology will be the only way in which all games are preserved for the future – free from licensing agreements and other such nonsense. Better still is the fact that in a majority of cases, emulation allows for a more accurate recreation of the game’s original experience than official offerings, due to countless complex shaders, filters and tweakable settings. And the best part? Thanks to the progression of technology, your humble smartphone is able to do all this and more – giving you the power of 10,000 games in the palm of your hand.
