    Help Any way to queue songs in now-playing in default music player?

    In default music player, clicking a song plays it, and press and hold on it gives some options, but none of them adds it to now playing queue. So, I have not been able to figure out how to create a quick playlist on the fly with songs from different albums without having to save it first. Is it...

    Phone gets uncomfortably warm during phone calls!

    I noticed that it happens more so in the day time, maybe its the hot weather here, but then again I don't get too many phone calls at night time, so I cant say for sure. But it gets really warm, approaching hot, when talking for extended periods, then holding it next to cheek becomes really...

    Do you absolutely have to charge the phone fully before using?

    So I received the phone today and it had about 40% juice in it at that point. So I immediately got down to installing apps and trying things out on this, and started transferring my music etc, so did not connect the phone to wall charger. Instead I just hooked it up to PC for all the transfers...

    I ordered sprint phone from amazon last year and my trial started the day I received and activated the device. I got a new line from wirefly, and my status changed to 'approved' today. So I chatted with them, and the support guy says my trial already started since they activated the device...

    So we wont be getting the noise cancellation mic either??

    On Slashgear's review, I didn't see any secondary mic on the device's top, as it is there on international SGS2. Seems like Samsung increased the screen size and battery capacity, but took away some small but good features.

    Help Thinking about cancelling wirefly preorder and going thru letstalk. Suggestions??

    So wirefly was at $150, which was pretty good, but letstalk is giving it away for $79 with coupon code and then waive the $36 activation fee for new lines. Thats a instant saving of $70, with total $106 saved over wirefly, PLUS free overnight shipping - means total savings of > $106. But Sprint...

    Why did samsung not upgrade processor speed to 1.5GHz??

    Almost every single upcoming android powerhouse phone I am reading about has a 1.4-1.5GHz dual core processor. Even international LTE GSII would get upgraded to 1.5GHz. With a bigger body and battery than original international GSII, samsung could have safely increased their processor speed and...

    Do you miss the missing dedicated search button??

    While I don't really ever use it directly, I still like the dedicated search button for it allows me to save my home button functionality while using apps like PowerStrip.

    Almost makes me wish GSII had Mali-604T!!

    This news from past November makes me wish Samsung had integrated Mali-604T with their Exynos processor in GSII. Do you think there was enough time from November till now for Samsung to do this?? Or this will be used as GPU in GSIII?

    Mali-400MP's traingles per second??

    Hummingbird's PowerVR SGX540 can do 90M triangles/sec, but according to webpage for mali-400mp from Arm's website, it can only do 30M triangles/sec. That does not sound like the 5x performance samsung talked about. Then what am I missing to understand??

    I will be ordering Epic and need to decide if I should keep the full TEP (damage+service) or just the damage insurance part.

    Help Unable to immediately click buttons on call screen after taking the phone away from ear!!

    So when I am on the call screen, and want to hang up or pull the key pad to enter some numbers, sometimes it takes about 3 seconds for the screen to become responsive and those buttons to become press-able.
