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

I have ordered the Case Mate Barely There for £15, but like this case so might buy that too, lol!

 

[Uhtred]

I think i'm going for that case as well, fed up of waiting for stock for the other order on the casemate!

 

[Streeteh]

Has anyone actually found a reliable source for a good screen protector yet?

Is there any confirmation on just how much thicker the NFC version of the phone is? I'm not that miffed at not having NFC as I don't see myself using it at all any time this side of whenever but would be interested in knowing how much bulk the chip adds!

I would think only a mm or two, realistically. By the time NFC is of any use the SGS III will be out, so im not overly bothered at the lack of it to be honest... though it would have been nice to have

 

[Streeteh]

Will be interesting to see how this fragments the case market. If the non-NFC version is phased out when the NFC version is released i can't see case manufacturers bothering with the old design.

 

[mrk]

All the more reason to stockpile cheap but nice looking cases now then

 

[Scottland]

Ordered a barely there case on Friday - should have waited as I think I would prefer the official one, cheaper too.

Anyone know how long till NFC ver is out to o2?

edit: or is it even worth waiting for NFC version?

 

[RBL]

\m/ Enjoy!

Thanks

been holding on my upgrade since December, but still annoying that T-mobile wont get the phone till June eps as my HTC hero has been failing for months

Get it from a 3rd party T-Mobile vendor like Chitter Chatter - I did.

I'm going to get one of those cases, hopefully P4U will have some tomorrow.

Anyone updated to KE2? Just done mine (and rooted, natch) and the autobrightness is definitely more neutral now, nice!

I just flashed mine using Odin to KE2 (Kies always showing DLL error for me), but I have autobrightness switched off from day 1

 

[ck88]

any idea on when orange will have these? I get my upgrade on the 22nd

 

[kitch9]

Right, a factory reset got Samsung Dive working, but I can't figure out how to add my mobile number to it. Has anybody got any ideas?

Wow 2 days am 23Hrs and 21 mins in and down too 28% this is with just over 2 hours of calls

Not too surprising, that. I made my first call over the weekend - I'd been avoiding any use of my tariff until I was sure I was going to get out of the cooling off period - and when I checked my battery usage that night it said I'd used 5% on calls in a total call duration of 9 minutes 21 seconds. I know it's not battery trouble as with careful use (i.e. not too much Drag Racing or Angry Birds) it doesn't scream for a recharge until past the 36-hour mark. Nine hours of talk time appears to be overestimating the situation by a factor of three.

Khaaan!, was that case from P4U or CPW?

 

[mrk]

P4U

Casey stuff

Just got that off the bay for about £8. I haven't even got my phone yet!
