The new Orange Android phone (San Francisco) £99...but a Question??

Had the phone running 2 days 3 hours upto now with the juice deffender app running and im down to 57% battery, it seemed to jump down to 68% yesterday quite quickly and has steadied out abit. will see how it goes over the next few days
 
My 1st ever problem with the JellyFish release, I can't import contacts from SIM card. It shows my contacts when I go to import them, click import from SIM to Phone and it does it but I still don't have any contacts.

:-/
 
Maybe i'm old skool (sounds odd being in my 20's) but i don't keep anything other than telephone numbers on my contacts, I hardly ever email friends (i have their number so just text or facebook).

Additionally the people i do email are completely different from those that call or text.

Maybe that is just my odd usage.

I do agree though that gmail is good for backing up contact data. As for truncating information, i'm surprised people still store contacts on a sim that is 90's technology. Most phones automatically store contact information on the device itself.
 
thanks mine arrives tomorrow.

I shall give it a go

Any good cases for them??

Bearing in mind i have a iphone 3gs im gonna have a good play:)
 
Picked one of these up seeing as I could do with an Android handset so I can test apps for RedmondPie. So far, quite happy.

Rooted, installed FroYo and got an unlock code. Never had to use it though as both my 3 and O2 SIMs work fine - never entered the code. Any ideas what happened there?!

Anyways, I'm fairly new to Android so what do I need to get downloaded to play with first?

Oh, and FroYo does make it feel much snappier than that Orange crap!
 
A "feature" of some of the Froyo ROMs is that it software unlocks the phone, if you flash a different version or previous version then the simlock will go active again.

Aye, the Orange rom is a tad slow, but its workable...The Froyo one could be quicker in some places though

What do you want to have downloaded? Depends what you want, you can add custom shortcut buttons to turn on GPS and Wi-Fi etc, or other widgets for the time / weather and date etc etc

Agh, makes sense. Thought the SIM lock was separate to the ROM.

Delvis: just after any cool apps everyone uses. Coming from an iOS background I've downloaded the usual Dropbox, Evernote etc.

What about Swype? Don't see it on the Market.
