    Goodish News?

    Samsung Android 4.0 ICS update for Galaxy S and Tab now under review - SlashGear So, going from the definite statement made a week or two ago about not updating the Galaxy S to ICS officially, to considering it so that's always good news. Of course, those using custom ROM's shouldn't care much...

    Wi-Fi Direct

    So yeah, Wi-Fi Direct is this amazing feature and all that, pretty much an enhanced way to connect two devices wirelessly, more than that of Bluetooth. But as of now, is there any use for this at all? I mean, I can't really find a list of all Wi-Fi direct compatible devices, and it seems...

    HSDPA+ Speeds

    About how fast are we really looking at for our phones as of now? AT&T claims up to 21 mbps, but each speed test has its own results, and just looking for what I'm supposed to be realistically seeing. Also want to check to see how much different it might be from LTE, but yeah, probably not going...

    Best AT&T Phone as of now?

    Opinions on the best Android phone as of now? They released about five new phones in, recently, too, and not sure where to go. I got the Samsung Captivate (Galaxy S) about a year ago when that was pretty much the best option, and I have an upgrade option coming up. The main reasons I would...

    Interactive Whiteboard

    Any good applications for an interactive whiteboard? I'm talking about something like: Scriblink - Your Online Whiteboard But yeah, if I'm doing math for example with someone else on a computer, I used to use scriblink to help them out or for them to help me out, but with a tablet now, I'm...

    T-Mobile and Captivate

    The guy claims that there wouldn't be a 3G signal if I bring my Captivate to T-Mobile, but is that really true? Or at least, is there a way to fix it?

    GPS on most phones

    How well does the GPS on most phones work? I mean, does it work in moving vehicles like on a freeway or something, and I'm not 100 percent sure since I've been stuck with a Captivate (failed GPS :( ). I really do find the GPS helpful and I'm not going to be upgrading to a new phone for the GPS...

    I scream for...

    So. Google did mention that when Ice Cream Sandwich comes out, they're going to make sure that everyone gets the update, at somewhat the same time and make sure that all phones are basically up to date with one version of the software, rather than the fragmented version right now with tablets...

    Good Stuff

    Lenovo - Tablets - ThinkPad Tablet (US) I think this is one of the only tablets out there with a legitimate good pen support and Android, but I'd like to hear if anyone else has any other good tablets they saw. Don't have much use for tablets other than the pen for notetaking and this looks...

    Bluetooth Multiplayer

    Any good bluetooth multiplayer games on Android? I've only seen Wi-Fi but no bluetooth option yet. If you want to get more specific, cross platform, too, but yeah, also any good cross platform with iphone via Wi-Fi games would be nice. I've been looking for them and I just can't get to the...

    Music Player

    There were a lot of songs I accidentally deleted from the default music player, and though it's somewhere on my phone's SD storage, I can't find where it exactly is. I'm looking to sort of re-mediascan for the music files so it restores everything I temporarily deleted from the music player, if...

    Valid Reason?

    Well, I've had this phone since September, and now, the port where you plug in the microUSB is starting to get really loose and wobbly. Is that sufficient enough to get a new phone, since it's going to be annoying if I'm going to be stuck with this for a year+...Maybe is there some kind of Mac...

    Next Version

    Just an interesting update on Samsung's plans. Samsung's going to be announcing their new lineup sometime soon, and I guess this only confirms that it's real and gives a date for the release. I wonder if they'll offer some kind of discounted upgrade to the next phone like Apple does (but...

    More conspiracy theories

    Is Samsung purposefully holding off on a Froyo update? Basically an article, mostly focusing on the Vibrant, about how Samsung might be holding back an update on the Galaxy S phones, maybe to get more people to buy their newer lineup of phones. Overall, I am pretty glad that people are paying...

    More reasons Samsung doesn't care about us

    DailyTech - Samsung Galaxy Player Confirmed, Ready for CES I guess they're really putting a lot into their new Samsung Nexus S phone, and now this. I'm sure a day or a week of hard work into their old Galaxy S lineup in the US can get us Froyo considering the international phones already have a...

    Help Captivate not turning on?

    Basically, something happened, my phone's battery died, and as usual, I just switched in a new battery, turned it on, it went to the splash screen, the glowing S.....and then turned off. I tried to charge the phone, that didn't work. I thought the battery might just be dead, so I charged it over...

    Help GPS Not Turning Off

    Sometimes, I use an application that uses GPS, it still continues to check for GPS after I quit it. I use ATK to kill it, lock it, unlock it, and it's still checking for GPS while it's locked. The only way I found to fix this is to restart the phone, and wanted to know if there was any way to...

    Help Icons be disappearing

    I'm using Launcher pro, and at random times, I go to the home screen to see all the icons missing. The dock's still there, but yeah. Only way to fix this would be to restart Launcher Pro, after which I'll have to wait around 30 seconds to even a minute at time for everything to come back. Is...
