Hi Paul and others. I've try Paul suggestion, but it doens't work. For som reason, newsfeed become a heading rather than anything else on the home screen. And, if i go to main menu; newsfeed setting, it only give me the two option, reason stories or top stories.
Any idea how to get around this? I tried voicebook, but doesn't really like it.
