    Hi, I've just got myself a new baby... A HTC Desire HD, and while setting it up I came across this new part in sense that adds friends. It seemed to add hundreds of requests from my Flickr photo account and as I was scrolling down the page clicking ignore to every flickr request, I accidentally...

    T-Mobile UK G2 Touch USB cable confusion

    Is it me? I have a G2 touch UK and the USB cable that plugs into the phone end has not got a mini usb port but rather something shaped like it but not quite the same. Tried a usb to mini usb adapter on it and it wouldn't fit. What connection is it? It's not micro usb either. Really confused...

    Firefox addon for Android barcode scanner

    Hi Everyone, Just thought I'd make you aware of a add-on for the firefox web browser on the PC that I find really useful for my Android phone. It's called MobileBarcoder 0.2.0 and you can get it by going to Tools>Add-ons on your firefox web browser. The program creates a Barcode that you can...

    T-mobile UK have now got rid of 12 month contracts!

    No more 12 month contracts on T-mobile UK. They have gone the same way as O2 UK went a couple of years ago. As far as I can tell, only Orange now do 12 month deals. Anyone correct me on this? Annoying really as I hate being locked into 18month contracts+ because I run my phones into the...

They are really general things, and I am unsure if they have been worked on in the upcoming 2.1 update but here goes. Hopefully someone official might read this and take heed. 1. The...

    Music player sound issues?

    Hi, I attach my HTC Hero to my speakers at home to listen to music but I'm finding the bass is far too much for my speakers and drowns out the music. Is there a music player on the market where I can adjust the bass settings when playing music and/or treble so I can play it through my speakers...

    Spectrek, Zombie Run! and Parallel kingdom.. any other GPS GAMES? U.K.

    My two faves have got to be Spectrek and Zombie Run! Both games are GPS enabled and both require you to get off your arse and get out side running away (zombie run) or searching for ghosts (Spectrek). I always play at night as it's more scary and fun, and the neighbours wonder what the hell...

    3000mAh Battery for G2 (HTC Hero)

    Just thought I'd inform all G2Touch and HTC Hero users of a decent battery I've just bought for my T-Mobile U.K. G2 Touch. Had my phone running since 7.30am and it's about 3.20pm now and only have had a drop of 10% in battery power so far. Very impressed. The battery due to it's size has...

    Zombie Run! incorporating SpecTrek.. OOH!

    I enjoy a bit of Zombie Run! (Google maps with little zombies running towards you and you have to get to the location before they get you). And I also really enjoy SpecTrek where you shoot ghosts on the camera while walking around using the gps to find them. What if both were combined...
