    Widgets no longer refresh

    I'm not certain if it's been since I upgraded to JB last month but my Galaxy S2 widgets simply do not refresh all the time. If I hit the WiFi or Bluetooth the widget toggles sometimes go green or change as they should but maybe only 20% of the time. The Weather widgets, clock widgets all of them...

    Help Why convert all video to .WMV??

    With all the differing media players available why does my SGS2 want to convert all incoming video to .wmv? You might think that a phone as advanced as this could be able to play virtually any media type. On a similar note, I can't even copy .mkv files whatsoever. It shuts down my Win7 Explorer...

    Micro USB to HDMI?

    Has anyone in CANADA found, or bothered to look for a replacement cable to connect their SG2S to their HDMI receiver or HDMI computer? I looked at BELL and although they show it online none of the stores even know what it is. Samsung.com shows it but I really don't want to order it...

All...

    Help Camera Shutter sound Change/adjust/remove?

    I've searched the phone through and through and can find no option to change the shutter noise or even adjust it. Has anyone figured out how to do this? And WHY for god's sake did Samsung/Android not have a built-in option for this type of setting? I can see several reasons for having a sound...

    Kies

    I have downloaded Kies, which so far isn't much better than the absolute crap Blackberry Desktop software. I cannot find anywhere that there are Drivers for my SGS2. When I plug in my phone is still says "Found New Hardware" and asks for drivers to install.... But Kies is already running. There...

    How does one Register Divx?

    Found the registration code but what do I do with it? There is no place on the DIVX website to input it. There is no place on my Galaxy S2 to input it that I have found. The installer fails on download every time... I'm lost. Anyone have a walkthrough?:confused:

    Anyone have their re-boot or lockup?

    About to buy the Sensation and the salesguy said to hold off and await the Galaxy S2 due to a bunch of Sensations rebooting or locking up for seemingly no reason. Anyone here experience this? Any fixes for it? I still wish to get the HTC but this reason is enough for me to choose the S2.
