Gameloft is running a promotion this month with a different free giveaway every day between now (well, technically the 1st) and Christmas. Yep, a Twitter advent calendar. If you’re not already following them on Twitter, you should start now.
So, the best news? Today and today only they are giving away a free copy of Dungeon Hunter HD for Android. This Diablo-esque game normally costs about five bucks, but today you can head over to Twitter (from your phone) for a link to download the game for free.
Be warned, though, that upon downloading and installing the .apk file, the game asks to download an additional 181MB to be stored on the SD card, so if you don’t have an unlimited data plan, it might be best to do that part on wifi.
Watch the trailer after the break, and hit the source link to download the game for yourself
Yeah Samsung really blew their 2.2 launch. Michelle has a fascinate on 2.1 still and that update isn't gonna happen until Jan-Feb. Awesome phones but they need to push their updates quicker..... it's that damn touch wiz UI that complicates the roll out. HTC phones are the same way with the Sense UI... takes longer.
You will like 2.2 so many enhancements. Make sure to update all your apps after you install. (and you can set them to auto update in 2.2 also)
Goto the app in the market and there is an option at the top to auto update each one. If any permissions change (like a app version wanting access to your contacts when it hasn't before) it will make you do a manual update.
Well its much faster and you get full FLASH (porn) support! Download flash 10.1 from the market... Here is the full list - been awhile since I was on 2.1.

Featured Enhancements
No Flash initially installed however you download it from the Android Market.
Wi-Fi tethering and Portable Hotspot!!!
Bluetooth Voice Dialing for hands-free calling while driving
Cloud to Device Messaging which allows you to send in the near future download Android Apps from the new Android Market; plus send Google Maps, YouTube videos, Webpage links, phone numbers, and text directly to Android Phones
Updated Google Search bar to include dropdown for All, Web, Apps or Contacts search. Plus choose which items are searchable… not just those previously mentioned yet specific apps; Messaging, Twitter, Music, etc.
Yes the is a “Move App to SD Card” feature, but developers have to update and enable this option for their apps to be installed to SD Card… sucks!
System, Hardware and Settings
There are now different color highlights for the trackball. Initially it would either do white or blue when using Bluetooth. Now any color can be used, typically set within apps if the feature is available.
I’m not sure what to call this memory, but usually when I kill apps using apps like Taskiller there is between 30-75MB of memory that can be freed up. Now it’s up to 218MB.
Phone and Browser quick launch are along side the app launcher.
Personalized search results saved to your Gmail profile.
Can allow offensive words in voice recognition settings.
Edge/3G: enable/disable data access over Mobile network.
Battery: sound when battery is low.
Multi-language stock keyboard.
Core Apps: Gmail, Contacts, Messaging, Facebook, Market, Talk, Car Home
Updated Market with auto-update settings, update all apps feature, and updated layout.
Updated Gmail app to finally include Previous/Next buttons when reading emails (shame that simple feature was just now implemented). Plus jump between accounts by tapping the email address in header versus pressing Menu button then tap Accounts. You can select/copy text from email, colored labels. Finally Android Apps (the APK files) can be installed from email attachment. The has now made one of my favorite work-around app obsolete… APKatcher
Finally no dark theme in Messaging & Google Talk apps, slight face lift.
Contacts with multiple similar calls grouped together which can be toggled to show more detail. Option to sort by last name, display last name first.
More Settings in Camera app; Focus Mode, Store location in photo metadata, White Balance options, toggle Flash, Zoom options. For Video; Color effects (Mono, Sepia, Negative, Posterize, etc), White Balance, toggle Flash, toggle Video Quality (even a custom setting for high quality for YouTube capped at 10 minutes).
New Car Home design.
