[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
in 7 month iu will be looking at the SGS 3

Wait for the Quad Core SGS 4 .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
This time next year 4.5" 720p screens, thats what im waiting for :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b33p_:
This is exactly why I would never take out a 24 month contract. 6 months is a long time in the tech world and makes all the difference when upgrading and if you're loyal to your network provider you shouldn't have to pay more/take less.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
This is true for all the networks ive been with...except tmobile! They are dogsh** at deals!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilboa1:
the guy is going to wait 7 month for the SGS2. i'm just saying 7 month the SGS2 will be superseded that's all. Whoever wanna buy a model now, should get the SGS2. Whoever waits 7 month, will buy a SGS3.

The SGS4 is neither planned or rumored to the public, I would expect not before 12 to 18 month but we will see ;-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kayodot:
yep had the same experience today in P4U in Edinburgh. i don't understand why they can't offer it in store, can anyone in-the-know explain why?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skeese:
I just got offered these two deals from o2..

Both 24 month contracts.

What do you guys think, did you get a better deal?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoney73:
I take it that both deals are 24 month contracts?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
He mentions they are both 24 months :D

The first one would suit me fine! 24 months tho ....yuuuuk!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skeese:
Yup, as stated above.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoney73:
I thought he had, and then when i checked became blind, doh!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno79:
Mate, you are a star for sharing (hotukdeals). If you simply treat the contract as a means to get the cheapest phone then you can have the phone for £315 in total. Not, only is the phone cheaper than a SIM free handset, it also spreads the payment out over 24 months so it's not such a big cash outlay.

Additional benefits are that you've also got a secondary pay monthly contract which you could whack into a cheap phone and keep as an emergency mobile in car or other location. Or you can use the O2 number to get other perks (such as discounted O2 home broadband).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvRS:
I got offered the same first deal with 300 mins except with 1gb data as I average 800mb+ for £31 but decided to go with the 18 month equivalent for £41 with a free phone which saves £56 on total cost and will be able to upgrade sooner. All depends what you're wanting. O2 retentions weren't willing to do anything on price to keep me so I gave in trying and went with the offer.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] u23sjw:
My head's hurting carrying out all sorts of calculations!

I'm currently on a £20 contract with O2. I get:

800 anytime/any network minutes

1600 texts

unlimited data

I keep hearing that O2 are one of the worst companies, but I think I'm just going to stick with the deal I'm on.

Now I just need to find somewhere that I can buy an unlocked, SIM-free S2 for a decent price...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
I keep hearing that O2 are one of the worst companies, but I think I'm just going to stick with the deal I'm on.

You will hear Voda Orange 3 TMob are the worst companies as well .

My deal will be PAYG £399 with £150 cashback i hope on SGS1 .

Sim is PAYG GiffGaff network an i will spend about £25 a year .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] u23sjw:
Do you mean the O2 PAYG?

Or have you found somewhere else that's selling at £399?

Ideally, I'd prefer an unlocked S2...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
O2 no point paying through the nose for an unlocked phone when GiffGaff should work as its O2 network and anyway unlocking will not be long just like rooting and tooting .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n-j-f:
Probably doing the same. I think I'm going for cashback recycling for my SGS rather than fleabay. Fewer potential problems. But I cannot find a recycling company that distinguishes between the standard 8gb and the 16gb which I have.

Anyone know any different?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvRS:
I doubt they'll distinguish between them but you can get £150 through O2's own recycling scheme here: http://www.o2recycle.co.uk/phoneSelected.asp?phoneID=2852. You're lucky as they'll only give me £109 at best for my HD2 which they'll probably class as damaged even though it was them that damaged it during repair I've just not had time to get back to the same store and complain though so will probably keep it as a backup.

EDIT: Just found this which will get you £170: http://www.mobilephonexchange.co.uk...000_Galaxy_S?utm_source=webgains&siteid=60809
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidMc0:
Wow - I can't believe it: just got mine for £309.98 total cost of ownership including VAT, or £258.31 once I've claimed the VAT back though business!

This is metal!

Here's how it works:

£255 Contract (1 x £13.50 + 23 x £10.50)

£149.99 upfront cots of handset

£4.99 Samsung sock accessory

-£100 Quidco cashback (only available until 30th April apparently)

= £309.98 including VAT / £258.31 ex VAT

Plus I've got a sim with 24 months of 50 minutes + 200 SMS, but I may not use that, and half of the phone is paid for at £10.50 per month over 2 years!

Unbelievable!

Solved: Go to Market and look for "Widgetsoid2.x"

Thanks for everyone's help!

Hello,

I use CyanogenMod6 on my x10 mini and I've gotten really addicted to the power Control Widget!

I'm not 100% sure if it is the default power control widget for gingerbread/froyo or cyanogenmod specific, but you can really modify the widget before putting in on the screen. On the arc however, one can only put it on the screen with the 5 default switchs.

I tried a lot of other widgets from the market, but NONE could give me the same features! Is there someone who can help me to get the cyanogenmod power widget on the arc?

Thank you,

Linkin
[Xperia Arc General] punkmonkey1984:
Widgetsoid2.x is what your after i think

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2&feature=search_result
[Xperia Arc General] Linkinsoldier:
omg, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Only question I have left:

The widget wants the permission to:

"directly call phone numbers"

Do you know why the widget wants to do this?
[Xperia Arc General] rahan95:
I guess it's because you can assign a contact to one of the widget button if you want to and then pressing this button launches the call straight away (no pop up menu or confirmation needed) !
[Xperia Arc General] Linkinsoldier:
thank you! Right at this second, I found this page:

http://jaumard.android.free.fr/widgetsoid/informations_widgetsoid.php?lang=en_EN

There every permission is explained!

Thank you for helping me, I love this APP!!!!
[Xperia Arc General] punkmonkey1984:
Also if you are in a app like the browser and want to enable something like auto-rotate i use mysettings, and enable it in the pull down notification bar,

https://market.android.com/details?id=jqsoft.apps.mysettings&feature=search_result
[Xperia Arc General] Linkinsoldier:
thanks, but I've never used this option in CM. I only use the power control widget ;)
[Xperia Arc General] SandroV1972:
Widgetsoid2.x is a great app, but... on xperia Arc the power controls in notification bar work only in popup mode. Selecting the icons directy in the notification bar does not work.

A:(
[Xperia Arc General] daveybaby:
That's a limitation in android, unfortunately.
[Xperia Arc General] SandroV1972:
I had an HTC Wildfire with CyanogenMod 7

It had a power bar on notification as a standard and it worked perfectly so I don't think it's Android...
[Xperia Arc General] daveybaby:
You had a rooted device running a custom rom, which had been tweaked to have this behaviour. I had the same thing running on my hero - the point is that it came built into the ROM, not as a separate app. You arent going to be able to get this behaviour by running an app on an unrooted stock rom.

Now that the arc is rooted, hopefully cyanogenmod will get ported to it, or someone will make some other custom rom with these tweaks, then we will get this functionality.
[Xperia Arc General] SandroV1972:
Exactly my point.

It's not an Android limitation per se. It can be done in a rooted customized rom. I just thought that it could be done by an app on a rooted device.

Thanks
[Xperia Arc General] ChefChaudart:
Hello,

My PS3 sees the Arc if I turn Media Server on fine, and I can see all media that the Arc can natively play.

Unfortunately, it doesn't show avi files.

[Xperia Arc General] ChefChaudart:
Have you done something "special" ? :confused:
[Xperia Arc General] rustynuts34:
All I done was turn on media server on phone make sure media server is enabled on ps3 tried to connect little notification pops up on phone clicked always allow. Also linked to my bravia tv the same. Hope you sort it :-)
[Xperia Arc General] gourdouli:
Does your Arc have the media server icon in the notification area?
[Xperia Arc General] ChefChaudart:
Yes, as I said it works for my Sony TV, but nothing on the PS3.
[Xperia Arc General] rustynuts34:
I know you probably have but just in case is media server enabled on your ps3 not trying to tell you how to sucks eggs but I forgot to. ;-)
[Xperia Arc General] ChefChaudart:
yes it´s enabled.

I use it for my NAS for a while, but still nothing with the ARC :(
[Xperia Arc General] rustynuts34:
Thought it would be, not sure why it cant see it but thats my little amount of knowledge used up. :( hope you get it sorted out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] networkn:
Hi There!

I am trying to find a Unlock screen that was in an earlier ROM I had (Ultimate but I can't recall which specific one).

Essentially it was a bar two thirds of the way down the screen, that went across the entire screen and required to be pulled down. I have seen two of these one that was like a oval shape and the other which was a rectangle, and I would like the rectangle one back.

Anyone able to assist please?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dhiru1602:
Seems like you are talking about the Themed version of Epic Lockscreen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] networkn:
Do you have an example and do you know how I can reinstate it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dhiru1602:
This is how the stock version of Epic Lockscreen looks like. You need to install a Theme which has 5 lockscreens based on your ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] networkn:

I tried but I couldn't work out how to replace the lockscreen with another type, and they only give you 15 minutes before you can't get a refund before you end up keeping it so I uninstalled it.

An exemple of how bad it is. Under my test today I put my phone in my pocket and put it on silence. After 4 hours, without even thoucing it. It had gone from 100 % to 63%. On my way home I decided to listen spotify, it was only a 5 min trip, but enoguh to use 4 %.

[HTC Sensation] Berserk87:
One of the biggest reasons I'm aiming for an android phone is the emulators.

I would love to be able to play nes/snes/n64 etc...

I have seen that you can pair a wiimote with a fair amount of android phones, but phones running sense are incompatible from what I've seen.

If the bootloader stays locked for good (no custom roms) is it still possible to get around this?

Or maybe someone could test this with sense 3.0 when they get their sensation.
[HTC Sensation] l1ttl3z:
I have sense 3.0 gb rom on my evo and i just tried to pair it with the wiimote and it detects it but will not pair.. i hope someone comes up with a way around this.. if u or anyone else knows of a way please inbox me and let me know
[HTC Sensation] Killbynature:
Your evo doesn't use 3.0 Bluetooth it still uses the old one HTC put in their phones. Someone with a sensation will need to test this. Ports don't use the same Bluetooth as the sensation.
[HTC Sensation] charnsingh_online:
No wont work, it uses HTC Bluetooth Stack not compatible with wiimotes
[HTC Sensation] Berserk87:
Can you post proof of this?

or proof that htc hasn't updated their bluetooth stack to allow it to function with wiimotes?

It has been like that since HTC Hero and it isnt gonna change until u put out sense
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RegnierD:
I imagine everyone is wondering why on earth someone would want to do this, but I'm just curious... how could one slow down their phone to a disgusting level? I'm talking thick molasses out of a bottle slow, like, running Vista on a computer with a max memory of 512 RAM slow.

Why? Well, I'm just curious to see if it can be done. I know these phones are pretty powerful, but I want to see just how horribly slow I can get the device. I've got a replacement one coming, and I just want to mess around with my current DInc until the new one arrives.

So, any suggestions?

It's running the stock Nov. OTA rom, unrooted, S-On and all that nasty stock bloatware included.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzo.olivares:
you would need to root and then experiment with underclocking with something like setcpu.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenHolliday:
couldn't ya like run benchmark or a sd card read/write on infinite loop? Ya know, something taxing like that without having to root.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
The way you would normally bog down a system - running multiple copies of memory pig apps and keeping them active - won't work because the low memory killer will keep shutting them down.

There's nothing obvious that I can think of that'll run in the background while eating up resources. There's a couple of things that I know eat battery -

SDrescan would keep the sdcard busy if there's lots of files.

There's a program called "GPS Test" that also drives the system even when it's closed once you start it. (Not the GPS Test by Charcross Ltd.)

But neither of these really hurt the phone when running all that much.

Hi HD2 Experts,

I am unable to enter co-ordinate on Garmin Mobile XT. I am able to enter co-ordinate by connecting HD2 with MyMoblier via my desktop.

I assume the numeric and arrow key buttons of "Edit Coordinate" is too small. Also this screen wont respond to stylus or HD2 doesnt have a stylus its very difficult.

I assume this is due to Garmin Mobile XT wasnt designed for such high resolution.

I have done google around, nothing came up similar to the problem I am facing.

Any idea how to fix this ?

Thanks,

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dwijadas:
where is the Zoomer ? how to use it when on this screen ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] 3octaves:
Zoomer is an app, just search this forum or google it.

It allows zooming in on any part of the screen so enlarging any small things just like the problem we have in garmin, once the small things are large its not so hard to do what you want.

I'm sure it will work well to solve the problem. (I will have to try it myself for garmin, I have used it for other programs).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HorstDCC:

The root isn't working? If that is what you mean, I don't know what to tell you. But if your talking about the file that was put on the phone to install the stock ROM is still on the phone post root, just delete it. I had to but now everything is good to go.

Matt
[HTC Inspire 4G] lobanza:
No, what I mean by the video doesn't show any changes to the phone is that after the file is flashed to and updated in HBOOT it must be restarted. After it's restarted the phone goes through its setup process as if it was just opened. The command prompt on the computer after restarting will sit on the lines"

The script will not continue if your phone is not connected.

* daemon no running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

Despite remaining connected the entire time it does not progress. Hopefully this explains better what is happening. I am trying to procedure again from stock everything and will post a screen capture of the command prompt to show what I mean
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Your phone booted up to where it was asking you to set up Google/email, file transfer, etc.?

If so, then it appears you are on the downgraded temporary rom, in which case you skip through all that set-up stuff on the phone, go to your apps and find terminal emulator, and go from there.
