View 4 RepliesDoes anyone have any issues with the battery life on this thing? I just picked mine up from Bell about a week ago, and standby lasts maybe 48 hours. Its rated @ 250 hours and although I wouldn't expect to see that, this is a little ridiculous. 48 hours is sitting only. If I make a couple of calls, its basically dead in a day. This is with GPS / WiFi and Bluetooth disabled. The only aftermarket programs installed are Barcode ( which doesn't run when off ) and TaskPanel which allows me to kill background processes.
What I notice is that if I run TaskPanel and kill everything, and then the phone goes into standby. When I wake it back up and run TaskPanel again, I see Alarm Clock and Calender are running in the background. Neither have any stored events and I don't know if they are kicking in on wakeup, or right before standby and thus running in the background and killing the battery faster.
Just bought myself a samsung galaxy unlocked with the AWS band for Wind here in Canada. Was attempting to put music via mass storage and by using the PC suite but was unable to. Does anyone who owns a galaxy know how to put content on? PC suite on the right side shows 2 mass storage drives F and G but only G opens. not only that with the media centre it shows that no device is connected or synced with it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedQuick question for those people in the loop with this phone. Has anyone been able to install/add android app world to their phone because the version I have (it is a unbranded with android 1.5 which supports AWS 3G for Wind and Tmobile) does not currently have it pre-installed. Also has anyone noticed on their phones if it does do it that when you attempt to make a call it will display call ended right away and then place the call? Are there any updates to this phone? The Baseband version in the settings displays I7500JVIG4.

What did I press to get it and how do I delete or mute it? I have not dowloaded any new apps. I only have the ones on the phone so far.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust got a samsung galaxy s2 earlier today. Unfortunately, it is locked to the O2 network and I need it on the orange network.Learning via google, I have rooted the phone, and tried the 'Galaxy S2 sim unlock' application to find the unlock code but it came back with the following message 'cannot find unlock code' Just wondering is there something I have done wrong? Also have an annoying yellow triangle with an exclamation mark that comes up every time the phone is rebooted.
View 4 Replies View Relatedmy brother has an S2 with out-of-the-box, custom ROM, not ever flashed or rooted, etc. He has just been told he has to work in Spain for the forseeable futre but wants to come home at weekends. He also wants to keep his S2.
If he roots and flashes his phone, will he be able to buy a Spanish SIM from any Spanish network for use in Spain, and just replace it with his own SIM when he comes back here? In other words, does a root and flash of a phone make it fully internationally unlocked so that he doesn't get any extra charges from either Spanish or UK networks?
i have recently changed from O2 to three and taken my number with me. I have requested, and received an unlock code for my S2, which I plan to sell, however, the instructions say: "Insert another network active sim in the handset. This should ask for a code. Input 8 digit unlock code when requested." But when I try another active sim, (I have tried both Three and Orange), it does not ask for a code

I thought I'd start a new thread to prevent going too far off topic on another thread that I asked this question on."If you want to go down that path you are better to root, unlock (via the market app) and then flash the XEU to your branded phone, and it will debrand it.It's all in a sticky on the Development link.EDIT: I've been using this root method and works well.For me downloading this file worked best and selected he 'touch' option http://clockworkmod.com/rommanagerTo avoid confusion it's this download: 5.8.1.5"Completed the above as advised by greenman and am now rooted (superuser installed and rooted apps work OK), but when trying apps to unlock phone I get no luck. Messages like "No code found etc from 2 apps I tried.

I tried calling AT&T but they said they couldn't unless I had a phone number associated to the phone. What eva. I've tried several 3rd party dealers on the internet including eBay.
View 15 Replies View RelatedI have a Corby plus on Rogers, and I have an unlock code for it, but I'm not quite sure how to enter it. Do I need to have a SIM for a different network to do it?. Unfortunately I'm travelling to europe in a few days and I'm going to buy a SIM there. I don't really want to run the risk of the unlock code not working, or me losing the code, so I was hoping to be able to unlock it without having a SIM to another network. Is that possible? If not, if I were to borrow someone else's sim and insert it and then enter my unlock code (I presume it comes up right away if I try and boot to a locked network?), does that mean that it's unlocked for any other SIMs that I put in my phone later?

View 4 Replies View RelatedPeople who wish to donate feel free to donate whatever amount, once I collect at least $60 to $100 I will go ahead and express order a bunch of turbo sims and others with express shipping and test them out.Once I get them and try all out I will post which ones work with what limitations / functionality. If I find one that works and there is extra cash left, I will use it to order more of the ones that work and send them to the highest donators and continue to ship / allow pickup for all the others unlock cards that did not work to well.$2 donations from everyone might make this a success allowing us all an unlock solution till Bell / Samsung allow us one. If I don’t get enough cash I will refund everyone’s donations.This is just a suggestion so please don’t start a war on this site. I am trying to do myself and the community a favor.Pickup will be At Downtown Toronto / Fairview Mall
