    XL Repairs

    So I dropped my phone today. Couple of minor scratches on the metal but no big deal. The glass panel on the back has smashed though. Anyone know what the deal is with getting it repaired? I didn't buy from Google. Help.

    Help Facebook Drama

    Hi guys, Anyone having issues with the Facebook app? I updated it yesterday and now it won't open but now drains my battery in the background and causes my phone to get really toasty. FB Android has been hit and miss but much more stable lately. Running ART if it makes any difference...

    Help Can't Update JB UK (Problem continuing)

    I have asked this before but never got a resolution. My phone was bought from CPW. Should be unlocked/bloat free. I have never been able to update it OTA and Kies never provides updates. Every time I search OTA it says no update available. JB has been out for months and is now on 4.2. I...

    Help Still no JB: is my phone locked? (O2 UK)

    Been waiting weeks now and still no update. Kies just doesn't work at all and no OTA update. I thought my phone was unlocked/unbranded, from CPW on O2. Pretty sure O2 have pushed their JB update anyway so why am I not getting it? Model: GT-I9300 Android Version: 4.0.4 Baseband...

    Help JB upgrade...no trace (uk)

    Hi, I've posted on a few other threads but haven't been given the answer I need. I bought my phone unlocked/unbranded from CPW. I haven't been offered the update to JB yet. When I check via the setting menu it repeatedly tells me there is no update available. This is in contrast to other who...

    Help Weird locking (alarm)

    Bit of a weird one this... Suddenly my phone auto locks when I attempt to set or change the alarm times. I will hit the relevant widget to edit the alarm settings and the phone locks, I have to unlock before I can continue. At first I wondered if I had accidentally triggered some setting...

    Help Contact image query

    I have a lot of my facebook contacts synced with my phonebook. This cleverly pulls over profile pictures, however when I place a call and the image is blown up it looks crap because it's so low res. Any way round this? I could of course manually attach HQ images but then that wouldn't update...

    Inbox issues...

    I've moved on from the Desire...now rocking 2.3 on the Nexus S, but before I abandon this sub forum completely I wanted to ask you guys about a frequent problem I had with my sms inbox. Basically if I wanted to open a thread, for example, 'Dave', I would tap that thread only to find the phone...

    MMS Photo Compression

    Hi folks, I searched but couldn't find any answers. When I try to send a photo by MMS the phone compresses the image to 8kb when it can send up to 300kb, obviously the image quality is rubbish then. Any suggestions/fixes?

    Network issues

    Had a strange problem develop there, tried to send a text. Sending failed, no worries, it happens, send again... Then the phone constantly and almost immediately gave me the sending failed notification. I had near full signal at the time. The only way to stop the cycle was to turn the phone...

    Should posting in the intros forum count towards your post tally?

    Simple question really. I have noted in the intros thread the same users posting the same repetitive greeting to new members over and over again. This is a quick way to rack up posts and make your post count look more impressive, (in other boards I have used people obsess on this for some...

    Contact sync issues (again)

    I really love this phone, like really love it, miles better than the iPhone I had before but one thing is making me pull what hair I have left out! The way contacts are organised on the phone is utterly dire. So many threads before this about all the unwanted contacts showing up under the...

    Google contacts

    Hi, I have searched on this and found various threads on contacts but none which really answer my question. I've been playing around with things for days trying to get my contacts set up the way I want. In the people app everything is fine, all linked up to facebook etc and people only...

    POP email

    I set up my phone to forward my Hotmail emails to my phone. Took a while to configure it correctly but working well now. One troubling issue is that when I logged into my account from my PC all emails previously in my inbox were now in the deleted folder. It seems mail is forwarded then...

    SMS incorrectly ordered

    Hi, Weird thing I've noticed is that in some text message threads replies are listed before my text. i.e Recipient: Good thanks, how are you? Me: Hi, how's it going? One thing I was thinking was when I set up the phone I adjusted the clock to be a minute or two fast. Could this...
