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

Found this on Play for £510 sim free. Seems to be cheapest anywhere and also the only place with stock. Anywhere else cheaper?
 
Just booked an exchange. Used the LCD test *#0*# and compared to my colleague's, at full brightness mine is noticeably duller with a yellow tinge. Leaving mine at 9 and dropping his to 4 puts them on par.

Boo, hiss, new phone plz thanks!

Just got mine as well. I do like it but the bottom and the top feel very exposed.

Which is why I spent my £10 on the Case-Mate skin at Carphone Whorehouse. It's decently grippy, easy to fit and remove, and it covers all edges of the phone.

CPW also have the Barely There, Gelli and Survive Armageddon Or Your Money Back cases - £15, £15 and £25 respectively with a BOGOHP offer if you're Khaaaan.
 
So anyone come up with a solution to fix the battery drain issue with wi-fi sharing? My battery life sucks as you can see from the screenshot below, which is on 67%. Don't want to root the phone or flash it. I got it how I like it with loads of apps and don't want to lose that!!

Think I've solved my problem with the Wifi Sharing drain but won't know until tomorrow when I do a full day with it fixed.

Have you updated google maps? If so its a good chance that will be your problem. I went to the market and searched for google maps, then uninstall update.

Settings > Applications > Running services - click on wifi sharing and close it.

Phone off & on and it should do the trick. Seems the google maps update is making the Wifi sharing run even if you aren't using either app.

Just get one of these:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/car-windshield-mini-holder-swivel-mount-for-cell-phone-5-0-7-5cm-41529
(On the youtube review for this the guy said it was sturdy and built well and more especially since it was so cheap)

Or make one like i have. Those above linked look too big, I have one similar on my Desire and it was just too cumbersome to have around and looked a bit out of place in my car anyway.

Khaaan! I've seen that picture before here, can you post one from the other side to see the back and how you mounted your case to the holder? I've got a spare car holder from my (hated) SE X10, so I could give it a go. Would need a cheap case to mount it to the holder and that would do until the official samsung one will be out.

Though I will buy official one anyway. This is the phone that I'll be using
for a long time, so no problem investing 40£ for the top notch stuff :)
 
Anyone who received theirs locked on o2 contract received their unlock code yet? requested mine on the 5th of May and it said it should take 5 days and still haven't heard from them
