    Charger voltage & touch screen issues

    This is an interesting one. For a few days I was going crazy trying to figure out why the touchscreen was going crazy on my SGS2. It wasn't registering my touches, it was jumping, stuttering. I did some googling and realised it was probably related to the charger I was using. Stopped using...

    Help Video camera problems

    I'm currently running Cyanogenmod 7.1 and have been having some problems with the video camera. No matter what the quality, I get pauses and skips in the video. I've tried camera ics, and Ig camera, neither fixes the issue. In fact when I record with Ig camera, the sound is also out of sync. Has...

    Tasker profiles

    I'm trying to make a version of this profile where instead of being plugged in the phone is just on silent, and still goes into sleep mode. I can't seem to get it to work though. And suggestions?

    Help SGS2 ignoring private numbers?

    I just missed an important call because my phone made no sign whatsoever that it was getting a call. No sound, no vibration, just sent the call straight to voicemail. It shows up on my call log though. I've been all through the settings to try and figure this out and I've got nothing, does...

    Buying an extra battery.

    I love the phone, it's awesome, but the battery life isn't spectacular. That's ok, I can live with that, but I am buying an extra battery. My question is this: if I buy this one Replacement Battery - Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 is it going to damage my phone in any way? Am I better off dropping the...

    Help Best size/resolution for video?

    I did a quick search but couldn't seem to find anything, for forgive me if this has already been answered. I want to convert my movie files to watch on my SGS2, but I'm not sure what the best settings are to do that, since obviously I want them to look the best they can. Any suggestions?

    Time for me to go!

    It's (FINALLY!) upgrade time for me. I ordered a Samsung Galaxy S2 this afternoon, should be in my hands by Wednesday. So I won't be around any more. The Hero was my first foray into the world of Android and is still a great phone, I've been through 18 months and about five different ROMS with...

    I've set up this: Auto Sleep Mode (with exceptions) - Tasker Wiki profile but when I test it/when it's active, my phone goes into silent mode for about 5 seconds and then back into normal mode. I can't figure out why, I've set up both profiles exactly the way the wiki says to. Also my...

    Facebook app issues

    I've been hearing bad things about the updated version of the app, except I wouldn't know, because whenever I try, it says 'installation failed.' Any ideas why that is?

    Hero video resolution?

    Hi. I asked a while back about the correct video resolution for the Hero, but now I want to know; I'm converting a few of my movies, and they're in that super super thing widescreen format, and when I convert them to 480x320, they're stretched at the top. Does anyone know what to convert them to...

    Root Restoring everything after flashing a new ROM.

    I've flashed SenseHero 2.1 & 2.2 over the last week or so, and as soon as SenseEspresso is ready I'm going to flash that one too.

    Hero music player 'skipping'

    Perhaps someone here can help me :) Sometimes when I'm istening to music, the player 'skips' and sometimes stops all together, until I get it out of my pocket and hit the home button to wake the screen up. I think it's caused by my phone dropping the signal completely, but it only happens when...

    Is there any way to get my phone to have a PIN unlock rather than the patter method? Also are there any apps that can do this without compromising the security of the phone? I tried Lock 2.0 and got a refund because it's not secure at all.

    There's probably a really simple answer to this that will make me feel very blonde, but never mind. On the HTC sense calendar, I've got recurring events, eg a shift at work every Thursday, but every so often I want to delete one of these. There doesn't seem to be a way to delete single...

    Is there a way to do this? I'm fooling around with themes/icon sets, and they apply themselves to the system apps, but is there a way to change the icons of ALL my apps? I can set them as I like on the homescreen using anycut, which is a nice start. I'm being picky about my theme, I want it ALL...
