****The Official Samsung Galaxy S II Thread***

[loltim]

I'm not a heavy user I'm at 2 dys with 38% battery left. To be fair I havent had tome to play any games. If I do it does munch the battery but thats the screen for you all smart phones eat battery when the screens on.

what firmware? I've never had 2 days usage.

The Galaxy S II is an excellent bit of kit but this close to the iPhone 5 launch you should really wait. Most happy iOS users aren't going to gain much (if anything) by moving to Android, unless there is something specific you should probably wait.

Just noticed when on the sms conversation list, if you swipe to the right it calls them, or swipe to the left it messages them. Neat!!

Yes i'm slow

How do i go about adding wallpapers to the phone? Is there an app to navigate to the right directory on the phone?

Likewise with mp3's/movies also.

And how do i delete some applications like yahoo finance? Doesn't give me an option to uninstall
Theres loads of crap i want to delete but no option in settings-> applications -> manage applications

Thats a lot of money for a phone. I paid £300 for a new SG2

Either download a wallpaper/theme app from the market or put the images on the phone. Doesn't matter if you put them in the root dir. or in a custom folder. You can navigate with "my files" or try Astro file manager from the market.
