    GPS and navigation?

    Hi, anyone want to comment on how well the GPS works on this phone for satnav? Having struggled along for two years with the HTC One X with pretty much non-functional navigation this is my biggest reservation with upgrading to the M8. I've already seen one review saying it is a bit laggy.

    Warning - don't let it discharge too far!

    Hi all, Last night my phone was sitting by itself getting very low on charge, as it always does by the end of the day. I heard a plaintiff bleep from it, but I ignored it because I was busy. When I did get to look at it, it had turned itself off. Fine, I thought, I'll put it on the charger...

    Root Phone wiped?

    Hi, I rooted my phone a couple of months ago, just so that I could use the Link2sd app and get a reasonable number of apps onto it. I still use the standard ROM. I've got S off, and hboot is 0.93.0001.. Today I turned the phone off. When I turned it back on it had apparently reset...

    Instantly filing photos?

    Hi, I would like to be able to take a photo and immediately be given the choice of which folder to put it in, rather than having all photos automatically dumped in the same folder and then having to retrospectively move them around. Is there any camera app that can do this, or any other...

    Podcast problems

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding the point of podcast apps, but the ones I've used seem to lack basic functionality which I would expect. I've currently got both DoggCatcher and Google Listen on my HTC Desire. All I want them to do is to download some BBC radio subscriptions so that the audio files...

    Root Getting more space: link2sd?

    Hi all, All I'm really trying to do here is make more space for apps. I'm a fairly basic user, I'm not especially interested in different ROMs, the only reason I've gone through the rooting process is to install link2sd. I used the unrevoked method, and I now have the superuser icon in my app...

    Handcent LED colours on Desire

    Hi, Has something changed with Handcent? On my Desire a few weeks ago it used to be reliable at showing SMSs with the LED colour which I'd assigned to special contacts. Now I find that when I'm charging the phone (and the red LED is therefore on to show it's charging) the LED colours for...

    Restoring apps from SD card?

    So my phone (HTC Desire) has been off for repair (its proximity sensor failed). Now it's back, and of course has had a factory reset, so is empty. I'm trying to get back to where I was with it. I have a lot of apps on the SD card, which obviously are still there. But the phone doesn't seem to...

    Cloud bookmarks and Firefox

    Hi, can anyone recommend a way of syncing web bookmarks between a PC and Android? I had a look at Delicious, but it is slated by its users.

    Got To Do problem: Hotlist and start dates

    Hi, I'm trying to get along with Got To Do, the to-do list program. I'm having a problem with its hotlist though. I've got it set to sync with Toodledo online. But there are items showing in the Got To Do hotlist which don't show up in the Toodledo equivalent. (They're in the Toodledo database...

    Pimlical diary software released for Android

    This has been mentioned in a couple of threads, but definitely deserves a thread of its own. Good news for anyone looking for a serious diary app. Pimlical Screen Shots Pimlico Software home page

    Only 55mb available for apps?

    I have a Desire on Vodafone. For some time I've been bumping along the ceiling, with regular out-of-space messages. What's odd is that sometimes I install an app, find that I'm now out of space, delete it, but find that the out-of-space icon is still there! The only way to get rid of it is to...

    Jorte notification sound

    Hi, I use Jorte for my diary. I can't say I'm bowled over by it, but it seems to be the best of a pretty mediocre set of diary apps for Android! My current problem is the notification alarm. By default I seem to have a very pathetic "bing". In fact I can barely remember what it sounds...

    Memento database import

    Hi all, I've been playing around with Memento, and in particular seeing if it can be used to import a database of memos from my old Palm OS system. It should be pretty simple. The memos will just have two fields: category and memo text. I've set up a library in Memento ready to take the memos...

    App to preserve ringer state through reboot?

    Hello, I'm using an HTC Desire, a bad choice apparently! Like many other Desires mine has developed the fault of shutting down and rebooting at random. It does this ten or twelve times a day. The solution is to send it back to HTC under warranty. However, according to the thread on the Desire...
