    Do you know from previous experience that Tesco do £20 codes? I'm happy to wait too, but only if I think it might be on the way :D

    Just as an aside- is there anyway to use the Aldi €10 off €50 shop voucher, can you use it to buy a Tesco giftcard and then spend that as part of the transaction?

    Read back in this thread. They do £20 vouchers.

    I don't think you can mix and match GBP with EUR vouchers.

    Gick I haven't even got my hudle yet and I'm already starting to reget buying it. is it really that bad ?

    I've done a tone of research and there's a lot of positive feed back about it could it be there was just a bad batch ?

    My brother bought one b4 the xmas for his daughter and it's working perfect .

    Got a reply from Tesco, they've confirmed the issue and have got an update planned:
    The issue that you are experiencing is something that has been reported by a small number of users to ourselves, but we have managed to replicate the problem. Having done this we have developed a resolution for this issue and will be releasing the fix for this issue, as well as some other minor issues, in an update to the hudl2 software very soon.
    ...
    We're hoping the update will go live within the next couple of weeks.

    Not to sure but i had the Samsung s4 a while ago and was able to move certain apps over onto the SD card.

    so all we can use the SD card for is music and pictures ?

    I think that's true of the current version of android not sure if the new version will allow it or not and even if Hudl will get that update.

    I just read its a problem on some new devices like the Xperia E3. But not on the higher end Experias I think because Sony have put an app on those to do it.

    I don't have a device with that problem. Mine are all older devices.

    Brilliant just updating now and I see one of the updates allows us to move apps over onto the sd card freeing up internal space :) woooo !!

    Mind you the mirroring to Tv with Chromecast was there already so can't see why that was in the update ?

    To clarify, I meant the issue where charging wasn't working unless it was powered off/ restarted. Don't know about the 98% issue yet :/

    Happy enough with the update, it seems to have fixed the battery charging issue and its nice that we can move the apps over to an sd card.
    Also Modaco did an interview with the Tesco Hudl team, seems they are looking at Lolipop but haven't had enough time to see if it will improve the customer experience http://www.modaco.com/page/news/_/android/meeting-with-hudl-on-battery-charging-lollipop-and-more-r1439
    Also Tesco's have released a keyboard case for the Hudl! http://www.tesco.com/direct/hudl2-bluetooth-keyboard-case/598-0516.prd?pageLevel=&skuId=598-0516

    Apparently if you uninstall the chromecast app you can still cast the whole screen from the dropdown menu.

    Picked this up for my daughter a couple of weeks ago when the 33% offer was on, its a pretty fine keyboard and stand.
