Oh how I hate accidently clicking "Previous Thread" instead of "Post Quick Reply"!

So... for the third attempt... anyone know if it's possible to have the "Request Desktop Site" browser option always enabled, even if via some kind of root hack?

Edit: yay!

For me, mine is much better than my SGS2. 'the standby' is great and over night i lose very little battery.

Then going into the real world the battery life for me is excellent.

Hmm, actually I think I limited that to my tech circle, so I guess not everyone can see.

11 hours, still on 68%.

Rooting is very easy though and you still get the ota updates.

You lose root on every OTA though, so its a complete wipe after every one...

 

[AndyCr15]

If you have root, why are you waiting for OTA's?

Anyone seen any good deals on this going sim-free?

Looking to pick it up but I may not have a job next year so I'd like to pick it up sans contract incase I'm not able to pay it

For those that are mourning the broken "TweetDeck," a developer on MoCaDo has fixed some of the bugs and uploaded it to the marketplace.

Do a search for TweakDeck on the marketplace (or on PC: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.modaco.thedeck.android.app )

I love it!

Played with this instore, fruit ninja (the only game i play) didn't look quite as good as on the iphone?

I guess that's because the store didn't have Fruit Ninja HD installed on it but instead the standard version.

 

[Belloni]

Ohhhh ok, yeah HD would have cleared this up! I liked the keyboard on it, was accurate compared to the iphone 4s.

Cheers mrk, looking to sell my blackberry to pay off the rest of my contract and get this. I can't stand my girlfriend has a new gadget (iphone 4s) and i have nothing!

 

[mrk]

Yeah, you could rub the GN in her face!


Oooh err.

There's a great 12 month Vodafone deal, which is so damn tempting, but i've already got 2 contracts in my name with Orange ... must ... resist the deal.
