I am hoping a better phone comes out with a keyboard and Radio Shack don't fix their website in the near future.
[Epic 4G General] InfDaMarvel:
Ive played with every version of the SG2 and I wasnt impressed with any of them. They are all just bigger imo. Same Operating systems, better specs, barely noticeable difference is real world performance.

I waiting for a phone that comes with a built in NFC chip and hopefully a keyboard. Or somthing that just a lot slimmer than the epic with a keyboard.
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
Actually I checked Spint's website and they have my date to upgrade now so I'm good there.

I haven't come across a functioning store model yet but If I get the SGS2 it's for the larger screen, but I'm over the keyboard thing now, I barely use the one on the Epic.

Hi! I'm running Valhala 1.1, so not sure if this is a problem with that, or with Windows 7, or what, but I paired my phone with my computer, but cannot seem to transfer files from my phone. When I try to send a picture through the gallery, for example, it fails and says "remote device rejected your request". Also, in Windows 7, when using the bluetooth device control thing, I can browse the phone, but only folders show up. NO files, just folders. Any ideas? I can stream music fine, just can't seem to do any file transfers.

Amazon is selling the GSII for $199 which is $124 including taxes etc.

Don't we have 14 days by law?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jre1981:
I can verify that. They did say $50 restock fee. And yes law mandates 14 day buyers remorse time frame.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] s1lenz:
Its not illegal. They take it back and charge a "fee".
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pcgeek86:
Can anyone cite exactly which law allows consumers 14 day "buyers remorse?"

FYI, my local T-Mobile store also said $50 restocking fee on both the HTC Amaze "Ruby" 4G and the Samsung Galaxy S2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] movieaddict:
mine said 50 dollars also
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
I used to work for an independent sprint store & we had a restocking fee too. We did it because we had people every month who would buy phones, use them for exactly 30 days & then "change their mind". We couldn't resell them & we had to eat a ton of cost every time. Those fees serve as a deterrent to that kind of behavior. No, it's not fair, but don't blame the carriers, blame the scammers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] z31k:
Each device should come with a tag on the box that has the 50 dollar restocking fee notice. I work for T-mo and we have it on each and every box. :o
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chrischoi:
You're on Sprint? Ew. Yeah, I'll confirm I've seen the $50 stickers on the boxes. It's not a law. It's a policy. Company makes the policies.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heygrl:
They recently went up from practically nothing to $50 to prevent people from buying and returning phones. It sucks but thank the people that did it often enough for T-Mobile to notice significant losses.

I think it was becuse of LG G2X.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ms.Dummbunny:
Try Getting It Waived BEFORE you buy

Then they should allow you ONE time in 6 mo period to weed out the scammers from the legit ppl just trying to decide.... Once again "everyone gets penalized for the behavior of a few"....

This might work for you, it worked for me when the sales person advised me of the $50.00 restocking fee" (Are they nuts?!) ...Get a manager & explain, just negotiate it beforehand, (oftentimes your negotiating powers are better when you are BUYING a phone, rather than when you're RETURNING it : )

Tell the manager T-Mobile service was spotty the last time you had it and you're wanting to see if its improved. Mgr i spoke to said he would waive the $50.00 upon return,if the coverage was not improved since my last go round. (i got him to write it on receipt and sign it ; ) (He had no choice, i told him his only other option was, "i kidnap him & his phone and drive around town with them to see how coverage was"...lol

LOL, hillarious
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mziol:
I was also told about 6 times that there would be a restocking fee, not complaining though. Just thought it was funny that he kept repeating it yet it was the first SGSII box he had opened for a customer :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] netnerd:
when i bought my S2 full price with 30$ prepaid plan, the sales lady never mention about return policy or 50$ restocking fee but she did say "you want me to remove that screen cover for you?", i said no, that' fine. is she nuts!?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bighulk666:
Yes, at the T-Mo store where I bought my out of contract, I asked about the return policy. Since I'm in California, I get 30 days, but have to pay a $50 restocking fee if I return it.

I think if you buy the phone w/ contract, the re-stocking fee is waived.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jester450:
Bought at full price. There was a big sticker on the box that says $50 restocking fee. I'm in CA.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] matthenry87:
Yup all smartphones have a 50$ re-stocking fee. There are also re-stocking fees on mobile broadband products and feature phones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Z51:
People run businesses not charities. The $50 fee is not bad
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MRpeabodyia:
Does the restocking fee apply to phones that have not been opened or used?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] toy4x4:
I could not figure out whether you are returning the phone or not.

With the restock fee, it is not worth returning it to save money by going through Amazon. Besides, Amazon says that the $199 is for a new 2 yeaar contract and that it is on backorder.

So sit back and enjoy your phone while we watch the developers crack this nut.

The one that came with it
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Kevinr678:
Hmm... Anyone custom kernels, anything? I know when I had UCKD5 and had the UCKI3 Modem I couldn't OTA. Likely to do with the non-official parts.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dkj7777:
im only rooted nothing custom
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Kevinr678:
That's odd. You've tried numorous times? I know sometimes it doesn't say there's an update available so I keep increasing the date and trying again until I get it. Usually 2 or 3 times.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dkj7777:
I try every day maybe 2 or 3 times a day
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Kevinr678:
Well damn man. I really don't know what to tell you on this one. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful :/ Last thing I'd suggest is a factory reset, but I don't know if that'd help.

Thanks. Its alright
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jvanlew:
As strange as it sounds, turn wi-fi off the next time you check. I've literally checked with wi-fi on and it said no updates and then set my date 24 hours ahead, turned wi-fi off and gotten an update available message. I read about this somewhere on here but can't remember where. I don't even know if it was on the Infuse forum. LOL.

Good luck.

I was helping a friend so I ultimate unbricked to stock, wiped all user data, rooted, checked for update had wireless on and froze the update. Somehow i canceled it. Tried it again and no go. It said I had to wait like 24 hrs. and 23 mins. or so.

I didn't check again for two days. I ultimate unbricked again to stock, wiped all user data. I did not root this time. No wireless and the update went right through. uckh1.

I didn't try the clock trick just waited. I have done it before with rooted but I need to sleep so I haven't done it yet. Maybe this will help someone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] RockingKK:
Instead of changing the clock you can also go into manage applications and find device management and clear the data for it. And it should allow you to check again.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] tazm0n:
Yep cell connection only is the trick. I was in an office with full WiFi, but a poor cell connection (1-2 bars.. thanks ATT :P). And the OTA kept freezing when downloading, so I would cancel, up the date and retry. Finally, without noticing, I had the WiFi off and the download would run, the halt for a few when my cell data connection dropped too low, the screen would refresh as my data gained a bar and the download would continue. Didn't take that long, I guess I just wasn't waiting long enough for the data to reconnect. It's weird, but it definitely will only download via cellular Data not WiFi.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rayford85:
Ok A fellow XDA member showed me this trick (thanks to killathenoob for this)

so i'm going to show you how to fix weather wallpaper force close issues when the sound option is turned on for sense 3.0 roms. The problem lies in: com.htc.resourses.apk inside the res folder there is a raw folder, inside of the raw folder is the weather mp3 files. so heres what happens after you mod your apk like always you recompile it and put your file in the zip and it compresses these mp3's.

This is what causes the force closes.

Here's the fix: get a clean unmodded com.htc.resourses.apk from your rom, open it with winrar and copy the raw folder to your desktop. Once again this is located in:res/raw once its copied to your desktop take your modded com.htc.resourses.apk and open it with winrar(DO NOT EXTRACT) delete the raw folder out of the file and drag the raw folder you saved on your desktop into the file. Now when winrar asks you to confirm the instillation of this folder be sure to select to store only(DO NOT COMPRESS). Once this is done close it back up and drag it back into your zip file.When winrar asks you to confirm the move, again select to store only.

Now flash your zip and enjoy your weather wallpaper with sound effects:D

Would Push Data Synchronization use more battery than 5 - 15 minute sync.

Being more specific.

I probably get one to three emails an hour.

I'm assuming push is demand driven by the receipt of an email / event.

If I set to a schedule, it's possible that my phone will re-ping more often than I typically receive mail.

I would like to remain "Lively" and Responsive. But on the otherhand, reception (and battery life) can be less than ideal throughout the day.

I'm curious which would be less demanding on my battery performance?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations....!

If you sync emails that often, you will have mass battery drain. Push, in most cases, is much more efficient than poll/pull.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
I'm gonna go ahead and throw this out there... I probably won't be basing a ROM on this. In my experience, basing ROMs on leaks just leads to frustration. Frustration for developers when a new leak drops a couple days later and makes their work obsolete and frustration for users who run in to various little bugs that haven't been ironed out by Samsung yet.

Why not????

lol, what you accept and dont accept is of no concern to anybody other then yourself. If you dont want to download a rom, nobody is forcing you. Devs are free to use whatever filehost they want to. If your ISP/location etc has bad connection to Hotfile servers thats your problem.

To me you both sound ungrateful and sound like you think devs owe you.

If you don't like Hotfile then you should politely request a mirror, Creating topics liek this just makes you look like ungrateful n00bs.
